Hi--

Pool names must contain alphanumeric characters as described here:

http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/common/zfs/zfs_namecheck.c

The problem you might be having is probably with an special characters,
such as umlauts or accents (?). Pool names only allow 4 special
characters, as described in this section.

Thanks,

Cindy

Hi All!

Can i create pool or dataset with name that contains non-latin letters (russian letters, specific germany letters, etc ...)?

I tried to create pool with non-latin letters, but could not.

In ZFS User Guide i see next information:

    Each ZFS component must be named according to the following rules:

        *

          Empty components are not allowed.

        *

          Each component can only contain alphanumeric characters in
          addition to the following four special characters:

              o

                Underscore (_)

              o

                Hyphen (-)

              o

                Colon (:)

              o

                Period (.)

        *

          Pool names must begin with a letter, except for the following
          restrictions:

              o

                The beginning sequence c[0-9] is not allowed

              o

                The name log is reserved

              o

                A name that begins with mirror, raidz, or spare is not
                allowed because these name are reserved.

          In addition, pool names must not contain a percent sign (%)

        *

          Dataset names must begin with an alphanumeric character.
          Dataset names must not contain a percent sign (%).


As you can see guide has no information about only-latin letters.
Thanks.
