Thank you for your insight. This is a system that was handed down to me when another sysadmin went to greener pastures. There were no quotas set on the system. I used zfs destroy to free up some space and did put a quota on it. I still have 0 freespace available. I think this is due to the quota limit. Before I rebooted I had about a 68GB bootpool. After the zfs destroy I had about 1.7GB free. I put a 66.5 GB quota on it which I am hitting so services will not start up.
I don't want to saw off the tree branch I am sitting on so I am reluctant to increase the quota too much. Here are some questions I have: 1) zfs destroy did free up a snapshot but it is still showing up in lustatus. How to I correct this? 2) This system is installed with everything under / so the ETL team can fill up root with out bounds. What are the best practices for separating filesystems in ZFS so I can bound the ETL team with out affecting the OS? 3) I have captured all the critical data on to SAN disk and am thinking about jumpstarting the host cleanly. That way I will have a known baseline to start with. Does anyone have any suggestions here? 4) We deal with very large data sets. These usually exist just in Oracle but this host is for ETL and Informatica processing. What would be a good quota to set so I have a back door onto the system to take care of problems. Thanks for your feedback. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
