I''m running OpenSolaris 2009.06, and when I attempt to restore a ZFS snapshot, the machine hangs in an odd fashion. I create a backup of fs1 (roughly 15GB): zfs send -R tank/fs1 at 1 | gzip > /backups/test_1.gz I create a new zpool to accept the backup: zpool create testdev1 testpool Then I attempt to restore the backup to the new pool: gzcat /backups/test_1.gz | zfs recv -d testpool Somewhere around the 6GB mark, the xterm hangs and the whole console hangs. If I try to SSH in, I get a user prompt and a password prompt, then it hangs upon password entry. Machine is still responsive to ping, but none of the CIFS shares are accessible when in this state. Power-cycle resolves it, and upon logging in, the backup was obviously not restored. What on earth is going on? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
