I am having a very odd problem, and so far the folks at Oracle
Support have not provided a working solution, so I am asking the crowd
here while still pursuing it via Oracle Support.
The system is a T2000 running 10U9 with CPU-2010-01and two J4400
loaded with 1 TB SATA drives. There is one zpool on the J4400 (3 x 15
disk vdev + 3 hot spare). This system is the target for zfs send /
recv replication from our production server.The OS is UFS on local
disk.
While I was on vacation this T2000 hung with "out of resource"
errors. Other staff tried rebooting, which hung the box. Then they
rebooted off of an old BE (10U9 without CPU-2010-01). Oracle Support
had them apply a couple patches and an IDR to address zfs "stability
and reliability problems" as well as set the following in /etc/system
set zfs:zfs_arc_max = 0x700000000 (which is 28 GB)
set zfs:arc_meta_limit = 0x700000000 (which is 28 GB)
The system has 32 GB RAM and 32 (virtual) CPUs. They then tried
importing the zpool and the system hung (after many hours) with the
same "out of resource" error. At this point they left the problem for
me :-(
I removed the zfs.cache from the 10U9 + CPU 2010-10 BE and booted
from that. I then applied the IDR (IDR146118-12 )and the zfs patch it
depended on (145788-03). I did not include the zfs arc and zfs arc
meta limits as I did not think they relevant. A zpool import shows the
pool is OK and a sampling with zdb -l of the drives shows good labels.
I started importing the zpool and after many hours it hung the system
with "out of resource" errors. I had a number of tools running to see
what was going on. The only thing this system is doing is importing
the zpool.
ARC had climbed to about 8 GB and then declined to 3 GB by the time
the system hung. This tells me that there is something else consuming
RAM and the ARC is releasing it.
The hung TOP screen showed the largest user process only had 148 MB
allocated (and much less resident).
VMSTAT showed a scan rate of over 900,000 (NOT a typo) and almost 8 GB
of free swap (so whatever is using memory cannot be paged out).
So my guess is that there is a kernel module that is consuming all
(and more) of the RAM in the box. I am looking for a way to query how
much RAM each kernel module is using and script that in a loop (which
will hang when the box runs out of RAM next). I am very open to
suggestions here.
Since this is the recv end of replication, I assume there was a zfs
recv going on at the time the system initially hung. I know there was
a 3+ TB snapshot replicating (via a 100 Mbps WAN link) when I left for
vacation, that may have still been running. I also assume that any
partial snapshots (% instead of @) are being removed when the pool is
imported. But what could be causing a partial snapshot removal, even
of a very large snapshot, to run the system out of RAM ? What caused
the initial hang of the system (I assume due to out of RAM) ? I did
not think there was a limit to the size of either a snapshot or a zfs
recv.

Updates to my problem: 1. The destroy operation appears to be restarting from the same point after the system hangs and has to be rebooted. Oracle gave me the following to track progress: echo ''::pgrep "zpool$" |::walk thread|::findstack -v'' | mdb -k | grep dsl_dataset_destroy then take first arg of dsl_dataset_destroy and echo ''<ARG>::print dsl_dataset_t ds_phys->ds_used_bytes'' | mdb -k I am logging these values every minute. Yesterday when I started tracking this I got a value of 0x75d97516b62, my last data point before the system hung was 0x4ee1098bdfd. My first first data point today after rebooting, restarting the logging scripts, and restarting the zpool import is 0x7a0b0634a1b. So it looks like I''ve made no real progress. 2. It looks like the root cause of the original system crash that left the incomplete zfs recv snapshot is that the a zfs recv filled the zpool (there are two parallel zfs recv''s running, one for an old configuration (many datasets) and one for the new (one large dataset)). My replication script checks for free space before stating the replication, but we had a huge data load and replication of it running (3 TB), and when it started there was room for it, but other (much smaller) data loads and replication may have consumed it. This system has no other activity on it, it is just a repository for this replicated data. So ... it looks like I have: - a full zpool - an incomplete (corrupt ?) snapshot from a zfs recv ... and every time I try to import this zpool I hang the system due to lack of memory (the box has 32 GB of RAM). Any suggestions how to delete / destroy this incomplete snapshot without running the system out of RAM ?

Another update:
The configuration of the zpool is 45 x 1 TB drives in three
vdev''s, each of 15 drives. We should have a net capacity of between 30
and 36 TB (and that agrees with my memory of the pool). I ran zdb -e
-d against the pool (not imported) and totaled the size of the
datasets and came up with just about 11 TB. This also agrees with my
memory (about 18 TB of data and about 1.5 compression ratio). If the
failed snapshot / zfs recv is 3 TB (like I think it should be) or
almost 8 TB (as Oracle is telling me based on some mdb -k examinations
of the dataset delete thread), I should still have almost 10 TB free.
I am making an assumption here, and that is that the size listed
for the dataset with zdb -d includes all snapshots of that dataset
(much like the SIZE field of a zfs list). If that is NOT the case,
then I need to come up with a different way to estimate the "fullness"
of this zpool.

UPDATE (for those following along at home)...
After patching to latest and greatest Solaris 10 kernel update
and getting firmware on both OS drives (72 GB SAS) and server updated
to latest and greatest, Oracle has now officially declared it a bug
(CR#7082249). No word on when I''ll hear back on status of this new bug
(which looks like an old bug, but the old bug has been fixed in the
patches I''m now running).
