Can anyone explain to me what the openindiana-1 filesystem is all about? I thought it was the "backup" copy of the openindiana filesystem, when you apply OS updates, but that doesn't seem to be the case...
I have time-slider enabled for rpool/ROOT/openindiana. It has a daily snapshot (amongst others). But every day when the new daily snap is taken, the old daily snap rotates into the rpool/ROOT/openindiana-1 filesystem. This is messing up my cron-scheduled "zfs send" script - which detects that the rpool/ROOT/openindiana filesystem no longer has the old daily snapshot, and therefore has no snapshot in common with the receiving system, and therefore sends a new full backup every night. To make matters more confusing, when I run "mount" and when I zfs get all | grep -i mount, I see / on rpool/ROOT/openindiana-1 It would seem, I shouldn't be backing up openindiana, but instead, backup openindiana-1? I would have sworn, out-of-the-box, there was no openindiana-1. Am I simply wrong? My expectation is that rpool/ROOT/openindiana should have lots of snaps available... 3 frequent: one every 15 mins, 23 hourly: one every hour, 6 daily: one every day, 4 weekly: one every 7 days, etc. I checked to ensure auto-snapshot service is enabled. I checked svccfg to ensure I understood the correct interval, keep, and period (as described above.) I have the expected behavior (as I described, the expected behavior according to my expectations) on rpool/export/home/eharvey... But the behavior is different on rpool/ROOT/openindiana, even though, as far as I can tell, I have the same settings for both. That is, simply, com.sun:auto-snapshot=true One more comment - I recall, when I first configured time-slider, they have a threshold, default 80% pool used before they automatically bump off old snapshots (or stop taking new snaps, I'm not sure what the behavior is). I don't see that setting anywhere I look, using svccfg or zfs get. My pools are pretty much empty right now. Nowhere near the 80% limit.
