You can't do an in-place UFS->ZFS conversion. The only way to do it is by using two slices on the Solaris partition, installing UFS to one slice, then running something like: http://blogs.sun.com/timf/entry/zfs_bootable_datasets_happily_rumbling to copy the data over to ZFS on the other slice. I haven't tried this in vmware though, so I'm not sure if it works inside a virtual machine. Works fine on my desktop. Or, if you're feeling like experimenting around with some bleeding-edge software, you could try OpenSolaris Developer Preview 2, which installs directly to ZFS root (no UFS anywhere) from a livecd: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/resources/getit/ cheers, tim -- Tim Foster, Sun Microsystems Inc, Solaris Engineering Ops http://blogs.sun.com/timf _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list [email protected]
