similar to: versioning with zfs like clearcase is this possible?

Wouldn''t it be great if the opensolaris community creates a fs fzfs (for flash zfs) that could be the the filesystem for SDXC cards? Two main point for this are already there Sun is a member of SD Card Association and the code writting smart on a flash should be there as well with stuff of l2arc. I think that could give the opensolaris a more visiblie/ markting in the IT space and would

Hi everyone, Please review the information below regarding access to ZFS version information. Let me know if you have questions.

I''d like to experiment with storing the boot archive on a compact flash that emulates an IDE hard disk, but then have the root pool on a 4-disk raidz set. (I''m using OpenSolaris) Anyone have suggestions on how to go about this? Will I need to set rootdev in /etc/system to tell the kernel the root device is different from the boot dev? Then what about "update-archive"

We''ve been experimenting with zfs on OpenSolaris 2008.11. We created a pool in OpenSolaris and filled it with data. Then we wanted to move it to a production Solaris 10 machine (generic_137138_09) so I "zpool exported" in OpenSolaris, moved the storage, and "zpool imported" in Solaris 10. We got: Cannot import ''deadpool'': pool is formatted

Is this possible? I want an external case with 4 HD in, each having an individual eSata cable. I plug in this case only when needed (each HD plugs into my PC separately), and do something like ">import ZFS pool" and use my ZFS raid. When done, I unplug it with ">export ZFS pool" or something similar command. This way I save energy, less noise, etc. I want it only as a

I wanted to crossgrade from OpenSolaris b65 to Solaris 10 08/07 for my main fileserver, but I found that I could not import my zpool due to a version mismatch. Is there any way to upgrade only ZFS on 08/07 so that it matches or exceeds the version used by b68? Blake -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

It was rumored that Nevada build 105 would have ZFS encrypted file systems integrated into the main source. In reviewing the Change logs (URL''s below) I did not see anything mentioned that this had come to pass. Its going to be another week before I have a chance to play with b105. Does anyone know specifically if b105 has ZFS encryption? Thanks, Jerry -------- Original Message

Hi guys, after reading the mailings yesterday i noticed someone was after upgrading to zfs v21 (deduplication) i''m after the same, i installed osol-dev-127 earlier which comes with v19 and then followed the instructions on http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev/en/index.shtml to bring my system up to date, however, the system is reporting no updates are available and stays at zfs v19, any ideas?

Hello, I tried to disable loading of the zfs module by adding "exclude zfs" in /etc/system. I rebooted and got into "maintainance mode" with many services disbaled (as svcs -xv shows). I don''t have any zfs partitons on this machine. So my question is: for what is the zfs module in booting of solaris ? Why can''t it be disabled? Regards, David This message

Hi, ZFS drew my attention and I''m thinking of using it to manage the storage for a virtual machine host. The plan is to get a Core i7 machine with 12GB RAM and 6 SATA disks (+1 PATA for boot/swap), configure the 6 disks in a tank of mirrored pairs and keep on that pool a number of virtual machines used for development and testing. I would have 8-10 of them running at the same time. The
