zfs discuss - Dec 2005 - Is it possible to install zfs on Solaris 10 x86_64

I have seen comments on some of the blogs about zfs being used on Solaris 10
based computers and Sun also hypes it for Solaris 10 - But I have yet to find it
available.  I have been testing on my snv_27 installation and would like to do
some tests on Sun''s released version of Solaris.

The SUNWzfsr and SUNWzfsu packages from snv_27 did install without complaints on
Solaris 10, but I''m sure there are other packages that are needed to
configure the io devices.

Can anyone direct me as to how/what?

There will be a version of zfs for Solaris 10; but in one of the next
updates (not update 1).

They might install without complaints, but I''m sure the devices will
not
load; some modifications to the kernel needed to be made (including bugs
uncovered in the kernel while testing zfs).

The only way to test zfs for now is to run Nevada build 27 or 28.

Solaris 10 zfs support will be forthcoming but simply isn''t there yet.

Our local Sun Rep at work has indicated there will be an "early
release" in the late Dec time frame - How would I acquire it?
