Solaris 10 u6 is now out, supporting ZFS root disks.
So is there any way to use a ZFS filesystem for client cache?
I tried Solaris 10 version 1.4.7 both the namei binary and the
inode binary and both panic the system.
ZFS can't be used directly, but you can allocate a "legacy" filesystem
device from a ZFS pool, newfs it as UFS, and and point the cache at that.
The same trick used to support "new" linux and macos caches (open by
path) could be extended to support solaris, also.
We have a few test machines setup with root on ZFS. Do you have a patch
to test or can you talk more about the trick? If so I am willing to give
it a shot.
shouldn't even be that much work.
