Having managed to muddle through this weekend without loss (though with a certain amount of angst and duplication of efforts), I'm in the mood to label things a bit more clearly on my system :-). smartctl doesn't seem to be on my system, though. I'm running snv_134. I'm still pretty badly lost in the whole repository / package thing with Solaris, most of my brain cells were already occupied with Red Hat, Debian, and Perl package information :-( . Where do I look? Are the controller port IDs, the "C9T3D0" things that ZFS likes, reasonably stable? They won't change just because I add or remove drives, right; only maybe if I change controller cards? -- David Dyer-Bennet, d...@dd-b.net; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
