similar to: Reinstalling boot blocks on a ZFS-only system

Hi, I've got a problem with booting zfs-on-root FreeBSD 9.2-PRERELEASE. I'm getting: ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable ZFS: can't read MOS of pool klawisz gptzfsboot: failed to mount default pool klawisz Machine is VM running under KVM on Proxmox 2.3-13. VM has 8 GB of RAM, 400 GB of local storage with SCSI Controller type: Default (lsi). I'm not sure what I did to

Hi, I just installed FreeBSD 9.0-release / amd64 on a new machine (Acer Aspire X1470). I installed from a usb memory stick (the default amd64 image), which I booted by pressing "F12" and selecting it from the boot menu on the machine. I installed on a SSD (which replaced the hard drive originally in the machine), using the default scheme for 9.0 (GPT). The installation was painless (many

Hi, Is there anything known about ZFS under 10.0-BETA4 when FreeBSD was upgraded from 9.2-RELEASE? I have two servers, with very different hardware (on is with soft raid and the other have not) and after a zpool upgrade, no way to get the server booting. Do I miss something when upgrading? I cannot get the error message for the moment. I reinstalled the raid server under Linux and the other

Hi. On one of my fresh installed servers I am seeing the following output during boot: gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 30 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 30 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 31 gptzfsboot:

I've been deploying FreeBSD 9 without issue on a number of near-identical servers for a client, but have run into an interesting annoyance when I hit the two DB servers. These DB servers have an LSI 3ware 9750-8i (running a 6 disk RAID 10 in a single 3TB virtual volume) which puts them apart from the other two servers in this cluster (which don't show either issue I am about to

Hi all, A recent thread inspired me to try getting a proper serial console working on a Supermicro X9SCL motherboard with IPMI. However I find that while I see loader messages and the getty I enabled after boot I don't get any kernel messages which does somewhat limit the utility.. The BMC creates COM3 (/dev/cuau2) which works with getty. I modified /boot/loader.conf like so..

On Solaris 10 If I install using ZFS root on only one drive is there a way to add another drive as a mirror later? Sorry if this was discussed already. I searched the archives and couldn''t find the answer. Thank you.

Hello -STABLE@, So I've seen this situation seemingly randomly on a number of both physical 9.1 boxes as well as VMs for I would say 6-9 months at least. I finally have a physical box here that reproduces it consistently that I can reboot easily (ie; not a production/client server). No matter what I do: reboot shutdown -p shutdown -r This specific server will stop at "All buffers

Hi. I experimented a bit with collecting entropy from the time it takes for device_attach() to run (in CPU cycles). It seems that those times have enough variation that we can use it for entropy harvesting. It happens even before root is mounted, so pretty early. On the machine I'm testing it, which has minimal kernel plus NIC driver I see 75 device_attach() calls. I'm being very careful

Hello, I have not had much time to research this problem yet, so please let me know what further information I might be able to provide. This weekend I attempted to upgrade a computer from 8.2-RELEASE-p3 to 8.4 using freebsd-update. After I rebooted to test the new kernel, I got a panic. I had to take a picture of the screen. Here's a condensed version: panic: page fault cpuid = 1 KDB:

Hello all, I just installed wine from CVS on fakewindows configuration, but I can't seem to get anything to work well. I tried installing the DCOM98, but I get "Cluster size not supported." The same error occurs when I execute just about anything. Has anyone encountered this or know what it is referring to? Thanks in advance, Leo

hail, I partitioned the disk this way: fdisk da0 ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=12161 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=12161 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size

Recently under amd64 and 9.1-STABLE I am seeing issues with the bce driver. Message is "Warning: bootcode thinks driver is absent". After this message, the box appears to be wedged. After rebooting, it got the same message during fsck. So we installed 9.2 pre-release using a snapshot iso from 7/13/13. Shortly after boot we got the same message. We are now in the process of

Hi I just did a system update and after I've rebooted it doesn't boot up any more. All I'm getting is a blank screen with a curser blinking at the top left corner of the screen. This system was running 7.0-STABLE Any ideas as to how I can get it back up? Regards Reinhold

I''m still trying to find a fix/workaround for the problem described in Unable to mount root pool dataset http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=492460 Since the Blade 1500''s rpool is mirrored, I''ve decided to detach the second half of the mirror, relabel the disk, create an alternative rpool (rpool2) there, copy the current BE (snv_134) using beadm

I can't seem to get my serial terminal to work with my new system. I had a serial terminal connected to my old system that worked great and copied /boot.config, /boot/loader.conf and /etc/ttys settings over from it. The new system has a Gigabyte GA970A-UD3 board with just a serial header on the board. I bought a serial connector backplate in an electronics store and connected it to the

Suppose I have a single ZFS pool on a single disk; I want to upgrade the system to use two different, larger disks and I want to mirror. Can I do something like: - I start with disk #0 - add mirror on disk #1 (resilver) - replace first disk (#0) with disk #2 (resilver) Casper

the other day i was trying to create a new freebsd slice on the same disk i booted from (on a freshly updated RELENG_6) and both fdisk and sysinstall failed with some error (i think they could not write on the disk, or something similar). boot -s did not seem to help, either. I remember vaguely some time ago a bit of discussion on this topic, but cannot recall the outcome nor any keyword to
