After upgrading my small test system from Debian Etch->Lenny via a complete reinstall, I find my g729 hostid has changed. Same machine, same CPU, same NIC! It doesn't seem reasonable that I have to burn my one "no-hassle" re-registration for a simple OS upgrade. The README only says that hostid is based on MAC addresses of all NICs, but that doesn't seem to be true. Does

I made a bad judgment and now my raidz pool is corrupted. I have a raidz pool running on Opensolaris b85. I wanted to try out freenas 0.7 and tried to add my pool to freenas. After adding the zfs disk, vdev and pool. I decided to back out and went back to opensolaris. Now my raidz pool will not mount and got the following errors. Hope someone expert can help me recover from this error.

Dear Experts, Is there a foolproof way of getting hostid on solaris 10 sparc? I am asking this because i have seen Dtrace scripts which allow to change hostid. I want this because i want to tie down my application to specific host and do not want my client to re-use it on other machine just by changing hostid. Thanks, -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

After multiple power outages caused by storms coming through, I can no longer access /dev/zvol/dsk/poolname, which are hold l2arc and slog devices in another pool I don''t think this is related, since I the pools are ofline pending access to the volumes. I tried running find /dev/zvol/dsk/poolname -type f and here is the stack, hopefully this someone a hint at what the issue is, I have

Hi, since hostid is stored in the label, "zpool import" failed if the hostid dind''t match. Under certain circonstances (ldom failover) it means you have to manually force the zpool import while booting. With more than 80 LDOMs on a single host it will be great if we could configure the machine back to the old behavior where it didn''t failed, maybe with a /etc/sytem

I''m running an Opensolaris domU on Xen with a Linux dom0. Xen is version 3.3.1, I''m running the Genunix.org build 130 of Opensolaris. I have the uuid defined in my domU configuration file, but this doesn''t seem to affect the fact that the hostid is different every single time the domU boots. For some reason this doesn''t affect the root ZFS pool, which imports

Hi, all, I think I''m missing a concept with import and export. I''m working on installing a Nexenta b134 system under Xen, and I have to run the installer under hvm mode, then I''m trying to get it back up under pv mode. In that process the controller names change, and that''s where I''m getting tripped up. I do a successful install, then I boot OK,

I have been storing the output of facter in a database with the assumption that uniqueid was actually unique, until I found that it is the same for a handful of my machines. It appears that uniqueid is set from the output of hostid. I checked into hostid and it gets its value from gethostid(). The following link, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/gethostid.html, states,

Hi, more than a year ago I created a mirrored ZFS-Pool consiting of 2x1TB HDDs using the OSX 10.5 ZFS Kernel Extension (Zpool Version 8, ZFS Version 2). Everything went fine and I used the pool to store personal stuff on it, like lots of photos and music. (So getting the data back is not time critical, but still important to me.) Later, since the development of the ZFS extension was

Greetings, my Opensolaris 06/2009 installation on an Thinkpad x60 notebook is a little unstable. From the symptoms during installation it seems that there might be something with the ahci driver. No problem with the Opensolaris LiveCD system. Some weeks ago during copy of about 2 GB from a USB stick to the zfs filesystem, the system froze and afterwards refused to boot. Now when investigating

Hi Folks.. I have/had a zpool containing one filesystem. I had to change my hostid and needed to import my pool, (I''ve done his OK in the past). After the import the mount of my filesystem failed. # zpool import homespool cannot mount ''homespool/homes'': mountpoint or dataset is busy The data seems it might still exist, (correct amount of used space is reported),

Hello, I have been asked to take a look at at poll on a old OSOL 2009.06 host. It have been left unattended for a long time and it was found in a FAULTED state. Two of the disks in the raildz2 pool seems to have failed, one have been replaced by a spare, the other one is UNAVAIL. The machine was restarted and the damaged disks was removed to make it possible to access the pool without it hanging

We are currently experiencing a very huge perfomance drop on our zfs storage server. We have 2 pools, pool 1 stor is a raidz out of 7 iscsi nodes, home is a local mirror pool. Recently we had some issues with one of the storagenodes, because of that the pool was degraded. Since we did not succeed in bringing this storagenode back online (on zfs level) we upgraded our nashead from opensolaris b57

A bit off topic, but having trouble again with the 64-bit libs when trying to compile this short fortran code to build a shared object. Can anyone offer an explaination of what is meant by the relocation bit, and how to fix it? I've tried the -fPIC, but apparently I either didn't have it in the right place or it does not work. Be glad to take this offline if somone could help me.

Hi, I am wandering HOW ZFS ensures that a storage pool isn''t imported by two machines at one time? Does it stamp the disks the hostID or hostName? Below is a snipplet from the ZFS Admin Guide. It appears that this can be overwritten with import -f. importing a pool that is currently in use by another system over a storage network can result in data corruption and panics as both

after trying to mount my zfs pools in single user mode I got the following message for each: May 18 09:09:36 gw kernel: ZFS: WARNING: pool 'cache1' could not be loaded as it was last accessed by another system (host: gw.bb1.matik.com.br hostid: 0xbefb4a0f). See: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-EY any zpool cmd returned nothing else as not existing zfs, seems the zfs info on disks

Hi, I''m running FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE with a 500-gig ZFS drive. Recently I''ve encountered a FreeBSD problem (PR kern/128083) and decided about updating the motherboard BIOS. It looked like the update went right but after that I was shocked to see my ZFS destroyed! Rolling the BIOS back did not help. Now it looks like that: # zpool status pool: tank state: UNAVAIL status:

Not sure what the best list to send this to is right now, so I have selected a few, apologies in advance. A couple questions. First I have a physical host (call him bob) that was just installed with b134 a few days ago. I upgraded to b145 using the instructions on the Illumos wiki yesterday. The pool has been upgraded (27) and the zfs file systems have been upgraded (5). chris at bob:~# zpool
