It depends on how you are installing. For JumpStart (with or without flars) you can use a preinstall script. For AI, you can use a preinstall script (are they still called preinstall scripts?) For GUI installers or text-based autoinstallers (OpenSolaris LiveCD or Nexenta) you can just set the parameter in a separate shell after the rpool or syspool is created -- or -- you can use a clever script like Glenn describes here: http://blogs.sun.com/glagasse/entry/howto_enable_zfs_compression_when -- richard ZFS storage and performance consulting at http://www.RichardElling.com ZFS training on deduplication, NexentaStor, and NAS performance http://nexenta-atlanta.eventbrite.com (March 16-18, 2010) _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
