Out of curiosity, does anyone know at what version you get a warning,
and at what version installgrub is run automatically after upgrading
a root pool/filesystem?

After upgrading to zpool version 29/zfs version 5 on a S10 test system via the
kernel patch 144501-19 it will now boot only as far as the to the grub menu.
What is a good Solaris rescue image that I can boot that will allow me to
import this rpool to look at it (given the newer version)?
Thanks

If I remember the sign correctly, the newer firmware creates larger logical
volumes, and you really want to upgrade the firmware if you are going to
be running multiple X25-E drives from the same controller.
I hope that helps.

Metadata is usually only a small percentage.
Sparse-ness is not a factor here. Sparse just means we ignore the
reservation so you can create a zvol bigger than what we'd normally
allow.

Is this a bug or a feature for sparse volumes? If a feature, how
much larger than volsize/compressratio can the actual used
storage space grow? e.g., fixed amount overhead and/or
fixed percentage?
