I used the following commands on both systems; sudo zpool export hp-data sudo zfs list # the other command produces a lot of snap mounts sudo umount -l /vms/vms #the only other mounted dataset sudo rmdir /hp-data sudo rmdir /vms/vms Update and upgrade the system sudo zpool import hp-data sudo zfs mount -a
Afterwards the updated system worked again, but it only proves, that you have to umount(/rmdir?) all non-root datasets in the ZFS update procedure before starting the update itself. The same happened to my ext4 install and removing ZFS and reinstalling it solved the problem, so this is a bug that should be corrected. I do not think that rmdir has anything to do with the issue, I think unmouting all non-root datasets solved the problem. In the ext4 installation I did not use rmdir. I just reinstalled ZFS and of course the datasets were not yet mounted during the installation. I could rollback one of the ZFS installations to the beta date and try out the procedure without rmdir, but only if you think it is useful and a real bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1846424 Title: 19.10 ZFS Update failed on 2019-10-02 Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: On all my systems the update from zfs-initrams_0.8.1-1ubuntu12_amd64.deb failed the same is true for zfs-zed and zfsutils-linux.
