OKay, I had to think about this before posting. This question may be silly or not and I am willing to take the risk of looking foolish. It never stopped me before :-)
Given : a machine with dual ( at least ) internal disks, identical in model and firmware, which may or may not be on the same controller. Is there a way to setup the install process such that my default ZFS mirrored rpool and filesystems therein also have compression AND possibly copies=2? I know that GRUB probably will not grok compressed ZFS. That means this could be a silly question. Therefore the bootable bits needed to get to the basic kernel with a few needed modules will be on uncompressed ZFS but the rest of the system, all of it, can be on compressed ZFS. At least in theory. Can the installer script-foo be modified such that the initial zfs create has -o compression=on and -o copies=N for some N>1 ? -- Dennis _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
