similar to: RePartition OS disk, give some to zpool

I''ve installed Open Solaris 2009.06 on a machine with 5 identical 1TB wd green drives to create a ZFS nas. The intended install is one drive dedicated to the OS and the remaining 4 drives in a raidz1 configuration. The install is working fine, but creating the raidz1 pool and rebooting is causing the machine report "Cannot find active partition" upon reboot. Below is command

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

Hi, I have the following partions on my laptop, Inspiron 6000, from fdisk: 1 Other OS 0 11 12 0 2 EXT LBA 12 2561 2550 26 3 Active Solaris2 2562 9728 7167 74 First one is for Dell utilities. Second one is NTFS and the third is ZFS. I am currently using OpenSolaris 2009.06

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

One of my disks in the zfs raidz2 pool developed some mechanical faliure and had to be replaced. It is possible that I may have swaped the sata cables during the exchange, but this has never been a problem before in my previous tests. What concerns me is the output from zpool status for the c2d0 disk. The exchanged disk is now c3d0 but is no longer a part of the pool?! This is build_75 on x86

(i use the term loosely because i know that zfs likes whole volumes better) when installing ubuntu, i got in the habit of using a separate partition for my home directory so that my data and gnome settings would all remain intact when i reinstalled or upgraded. i''m running osol 2008.11 on an ultra 20, which has only two drives. i''ve got all my data located in my home directory,

Being resilvered 444.00 GB 168.21 GB 158.73 GB Just wondering if anyone has any rough guesstimate of how long this will take? It''s 3x1200JB ata drives and one Seagate SATA drive. The SATA drive is the one that was replaced. Any idea how long this will take? As in 5 hours? 2 days? I don''t see any way to get a status update on where it''s at in the reslivering

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

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. Finally

hello, all I am have constraint disk space (only 8GB) while running os inside vm. Now i want to add more. It is easy to add for vm but how can i update fs in os?

Doing following: o added new virtual HDD (it becomes

Hi Sarah Thank you very much for your pointers. Is there a way to specify the date string as POSIXct when reading in? I have tried the following (very inelegant way) and still have no luck. --- Begin Code --- # 1st read in the spreadsheet with stringsAsFactors set to FALSE > abc <- read.csv("gntr1.csv", header=TRUE, stringsAsFactors=FALSE) > abc code tasks.labels

Hi, Your attempt didn't work because you didn't do what I suggested, which was make sure that your data frame matched the example given in the help for gantt.chart. Here's what you have: > str(cdfg) 'data.frame': 3 obs. of 3 variables: $ c1d1: Factor w/ 3 levels "task 1","task 3",..: 1 3 2 $ c2d1: POSIXct, format: "2018-04-01"

I read Ben Rockwood''s blog post about Thumpers and SMART (http://cuddletech.com/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=993). Will the SUNWhd package only work on a Thumper? Can I use this on my snv_101 system with AMD 64 bit processor and nVidia SATA?

Hi, The help file for gantt.chart states that dates must be in POSIXct format, and the example shows how to do that. There's no reason that I can see that you can't use a data frame as input to gantt.chart, but you need to be very careful that your data frame matches the correct format. I bet also that your character fields were imported as factors, because you didn't specify not to.

Hi, I want to set a make a contingency table which will look like this.. The problem is that I can't  set the table like the following.                      col1     col2       Total     row1              a         b         n10                      rp1       rp2        100                      cp1       cp2       rtp1   ---------------------------------------------     row2            

>From the help file for plotrix: " ... x - a list of task labels, start/end times and task priorities as returned by get.gantt.info ..."

I made a bad judgment and now my raidz pool is corrupted. I have a raidz pool running on Opensolaris b85. I wanted to try out freenas 0.7 and tried to add my pool to freenas. After adding the zfs disk, vdev and pool. I decided to back out and went back to opensolaris. Now my raidz pool will not mount and got the following errors. Hope someone expert can help me recover from this error.

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
