We have a situation where all of the spares in a set of pools have gone into a faulted state and now, apparently, we can''t remove them or otherwise de-fault them. I''m confidant that the underlying disks are fine, but ZFS seems quite unwilling to do anything with the spares situation. (The specific faulted state is ''FAULTED corrupted data'' in ''zpool

Hi, I may have lost my first zpool, due to ... well, we''re not yet sure. The ''zpool import tank'' causes a panic -- one which I''m not even able to capture via savecore. I''m glad this happened when it did. At home I am in the process of moving all my data from a Linux NFS server to OpenSolaris. It''s something I''d been meaning to do

Hello, What is the access algorithm used within multi-component pools for a given pool, and does it change when one or more members of the pool become degraded ? examples: zpool create mtank mirror c1t0d0 c2t0d0 mirror c3t0d0 c4t0d0 mirror c5t0d0 c6t0d0 or; zpool create ztank raidz c1t0d0 c2t0d0 c3t0d0 raidz c4t0d0 c5t0d0 c6t0d0 As files are created on the filesystem within these pools,

Hello, Sorry for the (very) long subject but I''ve pinpointed the problem to this exact situation. I know about the other threads related to hangs, but in my case there was no < zfs destroy > involved, nor any compression or deduplication. To make a long story short, when - a disk contains 2 partitions (p1=32GB, p2=1800 GB) and - p1 is used as part of a zfs mirror of rpool

Hi all, again might be a FAQ, but imagine that I have a pool on USB stick, I insert the stick, and how can I figure out what poools are available for ''zpool import'' without knowing their name? zpool list does not seem to be listing those, thanx, Martin

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, As I was experimenting with snv101, I discovers that every attempt to create a zpool gives this error: #zpool create pool1 c1d1s0 invalid vdev specification use ''-f'' to override the following errors: /dev/dsk/c1d1s0 overlaps with /dev/dsk/c1d1s2 I am testing with vmware, so I used the same virtual disk in a snv77 install, and I don''t get any error.

Hi, I have lost a ZFS volume and I am hoping to get some help to recover the information ( a couple of months worth of work :( ). I have been using ZFS for more than 6 months on this project. Yesterday I ran a "zvol status" command, the system froze and rebooted. When it came back the discs where not available. See bellow the output of " zpool status", "format"

Hi all, I moved from Sol 10 Update4 to update 6. Before doing this I exported both of my zpools, and replace the discs containing the ufs root on with two new discs (these discs did not have any zpool /zfs info and are raid mirrored in hardware) Once I had installed update6 I did a zpool import, but it only shows (and was able to) import one of the two pools. Looking at dmesg it appears as

Yesterday morning I awoke to alerts from my SAN that one of my OS disks was faulty, FMA said it was in hardware failure. By the time I got to work (1.5 hours after the email) ALL of my pools were in a degraded state, and "tank" my primary pool had kicked in two hot spares because it was so discombobulated. ------------------- EMAIL ------------------- List of faulty resources:

Folks, How can I find out zpool id without using zpool import? zpool list and zpool status does not have option as of Solaris 10U5.. Any back door to grab this property will be helpful. Thank you Ajay

Hi, yesterday I implemented a simple hourly snapshot on my filesystems. I also regularly initiate a manual "zpool scrub" on all my pools. Usually the scrubbing will run for about 3 hours. But after enabling hourly snapshots I noticed that zfs scrub is always restarted if a new snapshot is created - so basically it will never have the chance to finish: # zpool scrub scratch # zpool
