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

I''ve hsut bought second drive for my hope PC and decided to do mirror. I''ve made pfexec zpool attach rpool c9d0s0 c13d0s0 waited for scrub and tried to install grub on second disk: $ pfexec installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c13d0s0 cannot open/stat device /dev/rdsk/c13d0s2 $ pfexec installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c13d0 raw

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

Hi, After upgrading to b95 of OSOL/Indiana, and doing a ZFS upgrade to the newer revision, all arrays I have using ZFS mirroring are displaying errors. This started happening immediately after ZFS upgrades. Here is an example: ormandj at neutron.corenode.com:~$ zpool status pool: rpool state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error. An attempt was

Hi all One of the rpool drives on this server died the other day, so I got a replacement that was 1 cylinder larger (60798 vs 60797). Still, I tried prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c7d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c6d0s2 zpool replace worked and the pool resilvered within a few minutes. Now, installing grub fails. root at prv-backup:~# installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c6d0s0

Hello the list, I thought that it should be easy to do a clone (not in the term of zfs) of a disk with zpool. This manipulation is strongly inspired by http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=135038 and http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/ But unfortunately this doesn''t work, and we do have no clue what could be wrong on c1d0 you have a zfs root create a

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? I cannot use autoexpand because it doesn''t implemented in my system: $ uname -a SunOS sopen 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc If it was 171 it would be grate, right? Doing following: o added new virtual HDD (it becomes

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

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. This way I can focus on *just* the OS disks.) 0. c0t5000C5003424396Bd0 <SEAGATE-ST32000SSSUN2.0-0514 cyl 3260 alt 2 hd 255 sec 252> /scsi_vhci/disk at g5000c5003424396b

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

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

I''ve got knee deep into learning how to use Opensolaris and zfs, and I see now that my goal of home zfs server may have been better served if I had partitioned the install disk leaving some of the 60GB to be added to a zpool. First, how much space does a working OS need. I don''t mean bare minimum but to be comfortable and have some growing room (on the install disk)?

Hi all, after installing OpenSolaris 2008.05 in VirtualBox I''ve created a ZFS Root Mirror by: "zfs attach rpool Disk B" and it works like a charm. Now I tried to restore the rpool from the worst Case Scenario: The Disk the System was installed to (Disk A) fails. I replaced the Disk A with another virtual Disk C and tried to restore the rpool, but my Problem is that I

I never thought I'd say this, but I think it's easier to do this with GRUB 2. Anyway I did an installation to raid1's in CentOS 6's installer, which still uses GRUB legacy. I tested removing each of the two devices and it still boots. These are the commands in its log: : Running... ['/sbin/grub-install', '--just-copy'] : Running... ['/sbin/grub',

doing that grub-install /dev/sda will give me the "corresponding BIOS device" error. But now I fixed it by doing a manual grub install. first boot with cd1 and type linux rescue at the prompt when you're at the linux prompt after detecting and mounting the partitions, do a "chroot /mnt/sysimage" then # grub --batch #grub> root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs,

Since this seems to be a ubiquitous problem for people running ZFS, even though it''s really a general Solaris admin issue, I''m guessing the expertise is actually here, so I''m asking here. I found lots of online pages telling how to do it. None of them were correct or complete. I think. I seem to have accomplished it in a somewhat hackish fashion, possibly not
