Anyone have any idea on this.
I wanted to separate out my VirtualBox VDIs so that I could activate compression
on the rest of the parent directory structure so I created a ZFS filesystem
under my user directory.
mv .VirtualBox .VirtualBox_orig
zfs create /export/home/user/.VirtualBox
zfs create /export/home/user/.VirtualBox/VDI
zfs set compression=off /export/home/user/.VirtualBox/VDI
zfs set compression on /export/home/user
chown user:staff /export/home/user/.VirtualBox
cp -R .VirtualBox_orig/* .VirtualBox
This all seemed to work out fine until I restarted the system and then it could
not mount the filesystem saying that the /export/home/user/.VirtualBox was not
empty. looking at it I did not see anything in it so I just deleted the
directory and say told zfs to Mount it again. This worked fine. Everything
shows up mounted fine. The directory is empty though.
Not really a problem since I still have the data so I thought I would just
unmount the thing and start again.
>zfs unmount rpool/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox
cannot unmount ''/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox/VDI'': Invalid
argument
>zfs unmount rpool/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox/VDI
cannot unmount ''/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox/VDI'': Invalid
argument
>zfs unmount -f rpool/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox/VDI
cannot unmount ''/export/home/nxn/.VirtualBox/VDI'': No such
file or directory
Any hints here?
