Hi, I was just wondering if ZFS root is likely to be an install option any time soon, either in SXCR or the June Solaris update? The mechanism at Tabriz''s blog seem to work well, but it''d be nice to get it out of the box. -- Rasputin :: Jack of All Trades - Master of Nuns http://number9.hellooperator.net/

I have posted a blog http://solaristhings.blogspot.com/ on how I have configured a zfs root partition on my laptop. It is a slightly modified version of Tabriz''s blog http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/tabriz?entry=are_you_ready_to_rumble The main differences, is that I only require a very small ufs partition for grub, and I detail how to use a zfs clone as a test root partition.

Hi, I am trying to understand the use of volblocksize in emulated volumes. If I create a volume in pool and I want a database engine to read and write, say 16K blocks. Should I then set volblocksize to 16K ? Regards, Patrik This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi All, I am looking at trying to understand the conceptual model of how data is grouped and partitioned within a storge pool. In looking at the on disk document that Tabriz sent out a few weeks ago I see that object sets are the grouping which ZFS uses to group objects that are related. Specifially to aid in format and layout of like objects in to a set. So, for example 1 potential object set type is a filesystem. In looking further at the DSL documentation and t...
