I am using a zpool for swap that is located in the rpool (i.e. not in the storage pool). The system disk contains four primary partitions where the first contains the system volume (c7d0s0) two are windows partitions (c7d0p2 and c7d0p3) and the fourth (c7d0p4) is a zfs pool dedicated for VirtualBox. The swap is located in c7d0s0 as rpool/swap. 'swap -l' returns swapfile dev swaplo blocks free /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 182,2 8 4192248 4169344
I'm not sure how to make a raw slice for the swap file, it doesn't look like it is possible unless I get a separate hard drive for it. The swap area is not located in the storage pool so I'm not sure how this could cause interference with access to this pool. I will upgrade to OpenIndiana (snv_b147 or later) as soon as I get a confirmation that it is not less stable than b134. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
