Hi, I've already sent a few posts around this issue, but haven't quite got the answer - so I'll try to clarify my question :)
Since I have upgraded from 2008.11 to 2009.06 a new BE has been created. On ZFS, that corresponds to two file systems, both (strangely) mounted on /. The old BE corresponds to a file system of 7G, the new one to a fs of 3G. As I fall short of space and do not need the old 2008.11 any more, I would like to work out how to delete it. I know I should do beadm destroy <name>. But before I do that I would like to understand what I am erasing in those 7G (makes sense, doesn't it ?). In particular, I'd like to: - understand what's in that old 7G ? - understand why the new environment only takes 3G - possibly mount the old 7G to check what's inside ? I'm surprised it is said to be mounted on / - understand what beadm destroy actually destroys ! Thanks very much !
