similar to: zfs boot on Sparc?

Back in October/November 2007 when I asked about Sparc zfs boot and root capabilities, I got a reply indicating late December 2007 for a possible release. I was wondering what is the status right now, will this feature make it into build 79? This message posted from opensolaris.org

I''d love to be able to server zvols out as SCSI or FC targets. Are there any plans to add this to ZFS? That would be amazingly awesome. -brian -- "Perl can be fast and elegant as much as J2EE can be fast and elegant. In the hands of a skilled artisan, it can and does happen; it''s just that most of the shit out there is built by people who''d be better suited to

I wanted to send out status on the effort to make a version of Solaris install available that supports zfs as a root file system. I''ve got a version of it ready for distribution, but I''d like to test it on the Build 62 community release before I make it available. Without the build 62 community release, I have to test it on a build 61 image, updated with some build 62 packages.

Hi, ok I know zfs-fuse is still incomplete and performance has not been considered, but still, before I''m going to use it for my /home I wanted a rough estimate. Another benchmark already asserted that zfs by itself, on Solaris, is a very fast beast (http://cmynhier.blogspot.com/2006/05/zfs-benchmarking.html), faster than ext3 on Linux and also faster than UFS. Interestingly UFS seems

I understand that currently, at least under Solaris 10u6, it is not possible to jumpstart a new system with a zfs root using a flash archive as a source. Can anyone comment as to whether this restriction will pass in the near term, or if this is a while out (6+ months) before this will be possible? Thanks, Jerry

Is it true that Solaris 10 u4 does not have any of the nice ZIL controls that exist in the various recent Open Solaris flavors? I would like to move my ZIL to solid state storage, but I fear I can''t do it until I have another update. Heck, I would be happy to just be able to turn the ZIL off to see how my NFS on ZFS performance is effected before spending the $''s. Anyone

I''m playing around with ZFS and want to figure out the best use of my 6x 300GB SATA drives. The purpose of the drives is to store all of my data at home (video, photos, music, etc). I''m debating between: 6x 300GB disks in a single raidz2 pool --or-- 2x (3x 300GB disks in a pool) mirrored I''ve read up a lot on ZFS, but I can''t really figure out which is

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/

Machine is running x86 snv_94 after recent upgrade from opensolaris 2008.05. ZFS and zpool reported no troubles except suggesting upgrade for from ver.10 to ver.11. seemed like a good idea at the time. system up for several days after that point then took down for some unrelated maintenance. now will not boot the opensol, drops to grub prompt, no menus. zfs was mirrored on two disks c6d0s0 and

I just received a special offer from Sun (marketing...) promising that I will learn "How to use ZFS snapshots for backup and restore purposes." The relevant doc is at... https://www.sun.com/offers/docs/zfs_snapshots.pdf It says: === Begin quote === Archiving and Restoring Snapshots Another use of snapshots is to create archives for long-term storage elsewhere.

I''ve upgraded to Rails 1.1.2, and I''m trying to push this change through to our build server (Linux/Oracle) and we are getting some errors in the unit tests using Oracle. Looking at the data in the tests reveals a precision problem. Looking at the tables tells the whole story. My development database contains this table: SQL> describe dls_grids; Name

Hi all, Does anybody know how to include a partial (next to @content_for_layout) in a layout file? I''m looking for a something like @partial_for_include => ''filename'' in my layout files. So a linked .rhtml file gets picked up from within a layout file. All my layout files (4 at the moment) have a <div class="navright"> tag, so one change in the

http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1051&aid=3960&group_id=256 I posted this bug yesterday. Seems to be confirmed, since someone else has the same problem on a different platform (Fedora 4 and Max OS X). So, if you are using Oracle, don''t be in a rush to upgrade to Rails 1.1 unless you have the time to figure this problem out for yourself. -- Lori Olson

Hi, How do I make a request to the Rails team to include a line something like: js_options[''savingText''] = %(''#{options[:saving_text]}'') if options [:saving_text] in the in_place_editor method? script.aculo.us supports the ''savingText'' option to control the text displayed while saving after an in-line edit.

Can anyone (David?) shed some light on what exactly this warning is complaining about? I started seeing it when I upgraded to Rails 2.1 RC1 and the latest RSpec from git. I''m getting it in some helper specs that I''m writing. And yes, I am including a module there, to reuse some utility methods I originally wrote for my controller tests (I''m switching to specs

I have a problem that surfaced in my attempt to upgrade my application to Rails 1.1. We have a STI model on the "belongs_to" side of a has_many/belongs_to relationship. All my unit tests for this model pass, and the relationships all seem to work fine. But in my functional tests, I''m getting errors. I''ve traced it back into the call to the has_many
