zfs discuss - Nov 2009 - Old zfs version with OpenSolaris 2009.06 JeOS ??

Hi guys,

I needed a quick install of OpenSolaris and i found :
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+jeos/200906+Prototype#HDownloads

The footprint is splendid: around 275 megs, so it is little.  But i have a
question.

Why the ZFS and ZPOOL version are that old ?

# zpool upgrade -v
This system is currently running ZFS pool version 14.

As per : http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/version/N
The latest is 21 !

# zfs upgrade -v
---show version 3

As per : http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/version/zpl/N
The latest version of ZFS is version 4

Is there any way i can upgrade all that stuff ??  Using live upgrade? if yes,
can you point me how to do it ? thanks,

If you want the latest development build, which would be required to get to
a build 21 zpool, you''d need to change your repository.

Hi Tim,

You were right.  I wasn''t using the dev repository, so i was stuck into
an old build of zfs.

So i did those step:
- pkg set-publisher -P -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev/ opensolaris.org
- pkg image-update -v : download and upgrade.
- reboot

Then i have version 4 now of zfs and version 19 of zpool.

And the release is now:
$ cat /etc/release
                       OpenSolaris Development snv_127 X86
           Copyright 2009 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All Rights Reserved.
                        Use is subject to license terms.
                           Assembled 06 November 2009

Thanks a lot.

So i learn that the release at
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+jeos/200906+Prototype#HDownloads is
pretty old and need to be updated :)
