similar to: Root raidz without boot

Using build 70, I followed the zfsboot instructions at http:// www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/zfsboot-manual/ to the letter. I tried first with a mirror zfsroot, when I try to boot to zfsboot the screen is flooded with "init(1M) exited on fatal signal 9" Than I tried with a simple zfs pool (not mirrored) and it just reboots right away. If I try to setup grub

I am confused (nothing new there ...). I have 2 Ubuntu 9.10 Samba servers. I am trying to mount a share from the other (i.e., "workhorse" is trying to mount a share on "dual-booter"). If I specify a smbmount command with a -k option, I can mount the share: turgon at workhorse:~$ klist Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_1000 Default principal: turgon at DACRIB.LOCAL Valid starting

The time has come to review the current Contributor and Core contributor grants for ZFS. Since all of the ZFS core contributors grants are set to expire on 02-24-2009 we need to renew the members that are still contributing at core contributor levels. We should also add some new members to both Contributor and Core contributor levels. First the current list of Core contributors: Bill

I have previously written about a mountroot prompt, here are some details. I have a system with an asus m3a78-emh hdmi board, a 74 gig raptor drive, and a dual core amd am2 cpu. I have had this result with both the amd64 and i386 systems. My steps were all conducted today as follows. install 7.0 release run freebsd-update get src tree build world build and install kernel reboot and be greeted

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 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

I've been at this for days, and making no headway. It's very discouraging. I have a Win2003 domain, that has the Services for Unix extensions installed. I am trying to have multiple Samba servers as domain members. (in my case, one desktop sharing files, and one laptop, accessing the shares). And at the moment, it doesn't (fully) work. Each Samba server can see shares from the other.

Hello, Can someone explain why my exclude option is not excluding filles as instructed in my script below. I have tried multiple methods and still have been unsuccessful in excluding the one file "test.sql". The methods I have tried are: 1. Removing EXTRAFLAG variable -a 2. Removing using -a 3. Option --include infront of --exclude and behind of --exclude. 4. rsync /software/testdir/

Will it be possible to update an existing raidz to a raidz2? I wouldn''t think so, but maybe I''ll be pleasantly surprised. -frank

I am *still* unable to mount shares from a Ubuntu 10.04 server, using a Ubuntu 10.04 laptop. I totally re-formatted both my desktop and my laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 (so that they would be using the same version of Samba). I am using the exact same smb.conf for the 2 machines (less the share definitions, which exist only on the desktop, known as "workhorse"). wbinfo -u, wbinfo -g,

I have a customer who has implemented the following layout: As you can see, he has mostly raidz zvols but has one raidz2 in the same zpool. What are the implications here? Is this a bad thing to do? Please elaborate. Thanks, Scott Gaspard Scott.J.Gaspard at Sun.COM > NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM > > chipool1 ONLINE 0 0 0 > >

I skimmed the archives and found a thread from July earlier this year about RAIDZ expansion. Not adding more RAIDZ stripes to a pool, but adding more drives to the stripe itself. I''m wondering if an RFE has been submitted for this and if any progress has been made, or is expected? I find myself out of space on my current RAID5 setup and would love to flip over to a ZFS raidz2 solution

Hi Is it possible to convert live 3 disks zpool from raidz to raidz2 And is it possible to add 1 new disk to raidz configuration without backups and recreating zpool from cratch. Thanks This message posted from opensolaris.org

hi, guys, my first post. i'm scouring the web site, but don't seem to be able to find a compatibility mapping for older versions of samba. i need to upgrade to the latest sparc version which is compatible with solaris 8...all my searches are bringing up the solaris 9 code. can someone point me in the right direction? thanks (and apologies in advance if it is easy to find and i'm

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.

So, I took four 1.5TB drives and made RAIDZ, RAIDZ1 and RAIDZ2 pools. The sizes for the pools were 5.3TB, 4.0TB, and 2.67TB respectively. The man page for RAIDZ states that "The raidz vdev type is an alias for raidz1." So why was there a difference between the sizes for RAIDZ and RAIDZ1? Shouldn''t the size be the same for "zpool create raidz ..." and "zpool

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
