Hi Sharon,
In the first two cases (g-v-m and ospm-applet) it would appear that either (or
both) HAL and D-Bus system services are not running, check using:
svcs hal dbus
Both should be in the "online" state. If they are offline enable them using:
svcs enable dbus
svcs enable hal
If they are in maintenance mode, then you will need more information, which
should be able to locate using:
svcs -xv hal dbus
w.r.t. ZFS - I have no idea why you're seeing problems, but a good start would
be to check the pool status:
zpool status -v
This might point you towards any problems there, if there are any.
HTH,
Darren.
