I''m attempting to expand a root pool for a VMware VM that is on an 8GB virtual disk. I mirrored it to a 20GB disk and detached the 8GB disk. I did "installgrub" to install grub onto the second virtual disk, but I get a kernel panic when booting. Is there an extra step I need to perform to get this working? Basically I did this: 1. Created a new 20GB virtual disk. 2. Booted

Hello, I''m looking for info on adding a disk to my current zfs pool. I am running OpenSoarlis snv_98. I have upgraded my pool since my image-update. When I installed OpenSolaris it was a machine with 2 hard disks (regular IDE). Is it possible to add the second hard disk to the pool to increase my storage capacity without a raid controller? >From what I''ve found, the

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

In my new oracle server, sol11exp, it''s using multipath device names... Presently I have two disks attached: (I removed the other 10 disks for now, because these device names are so confusing.

Hello, I had snv_111b running for a while on a HP DL160G5. With two 16GB USB sticks comprising the mirrored rpool for boot. And four 1TB drives comprising another pool, pool1, for data. So that''s been working just fine for a few months. Yesterday I get it into my mind to upgrade the OS to latest, then was snv_127. That worked, and all was well. Also did an upgrade to the

Is it possible to recover the rpool with only a tar/star archive of the root filesystem? I have used the zfs send/receive methods and that work without a problem. What I am trying to do is recreate the rpool and underlying zfs filesystems (rpool/ROOT, rpool/s10_uXXXXXX, rpool/dump, rpool/swap, rpool/export, and rpool/export/home). I then mount the pool at a alternate root and restore the tar

I noticed an oddity on my 2008.05 box today. Created a new zfs file system that I was planning to nfs share out to an old FreeBSD box, after I put sharenfs=on for it, I noticed there was a bunch of others shared too: -bash-3.2# dfshares -F nfs RESOURCE SERVER ACCESS TRANSPORT reaver:/store/movies reaver - - reaver:/export

Please can someone take a look at the attached file which shows the output on my machine of zfs list -r -t filesystem,snapshot -o space rpool/export/home/matt The USEDDS figure of ~2GB is what I would expect, and is the same figure reported by the Disk Usage Analyzer. Where is the remaining 13.8GB USEDSNAP figure coming from? If I total up the list of zfs-auto snapshots it adds up to about 4.8GB,

Hello all, I''d like to report a tricky situation and a workaround I''ve found useful - hope this helps someone in similar situations. To cut the long story short, I could not properly mount some datasets from a readonly pool, which had a non-"legacy" mountpoint attribute value set, but the mountpoint was not available (directory absent or not empty). In this case

Hi all, I currently have four drives in my OpenSolaris box. The drives are split into two mirrors, one mirror containing my rpool (disks 1 & 2) and one containing other data (disks 2 & 3). I''m running out of space on my data mirror and am thinking of upgrading it to two 2TB disks. I then considered replacing disk 2 with a 2TB disk and making a RAIDz from the three new drives.

Hi all, I''ve just upgraded my OpenSolaris 2008.05 workstation to snv_90 after unsucessfully trying to get virt-install.sh to run on snv_86 and now have (I think) a more serious problem. In the xend-debug.log file I keep getting the following error repeated many times : Failed allocation for dom 8: 1 extents of order 9 ERROR Internal error: Cannot allocate more 2M pages for HVM guest.

Dear ZFS experts, I have 2 SATA 500 GB Hard Drive on my Dual Core PC I have installed OpenSolaris 2008.11 using Live CD I got from Sun Tech Days in Singapore Now, using all the guidelines I got here at Indiana Discussion, I can''t attach my second drive to rpool to make them mirror Initially I was playing around with similar configuration in VirtualBox, and it does not succeed.

Hi, as Richard Elling wrote earlier: "For more background, low-cost SSDs intended for the boot market are perfect candidates. Take a X-25V @ 40GB and use 15-20 GB for root and the rest for an L2ARC. For small form factor machines or machines with max capacity of 8GB of RAM (a typical home system) this can make a pleasant improvement over a HDD-only implementation." For the upcoming

Hi, I am soliciting input from the ZFS engineers and/or ZFS users on an extension to "zfs list". Thanks in advance for your feedback. Quick Background: The pNFS project (http://opensolaris.org/os/project/nfsv41/) is adding a new DMU object set type which is used on the pNFS data server to store pNFS stripe DMU objects.
