Re: ZFS mounting order
Hi, Assuming that you are using some version of diskless (man diskless), I build NAS boxes using NanoBSD (man nanobsd) and in that setup, I need to move the cache from /boot/zfs to /etc/zfscache so the cache can be mapped to the files copied to the cfg partision. So I added the following file to rc.d/zpool --- #!/bin/sh # # $FreeBSD: $ # # PROVIDE: zpool # REQUIRE: hostid # BEFORE: zvol # KEYWORD: nojail . /etc/rc.subr name=zpool rcvar=zfs_enable start_cmd=zpool_start required_modules=zfs zpool_start() { if [ ! -z $zpool_cache -a -r $zpool_cache ]; then zpool import -c $zpool_cache -a fi } load_rc_config $name run_rc_command $1 --- This works very well for a disk server from USB, CF or mSATA SSD. I am not sure the BEFORE tag was required to make sure that this is the first ZFS related script run, before zvol, as zpool is sorted before zvol but I was not sure exactly how rcorder sorts. /glz --On Sunday, 20 May, 2012 10:41 AM -0400 Chris Brennan li...@xaerolimit.net wrote: Greetings! I have a FreeBSD 9 system with 3 different ZFS pools on it. I am booting from a ro CF Card w/o any major issues, the problem I am encountering is that zroot needs to be mounted at boot first, because it contains /usr, zhome and tank contain other various sub-partitions of /usr. Also, zroot causes me a lot of problems when I try to do zpool import, when zpool gets to probing zroot, I get g_vfs errors printed to the console and the hacnine hangs till I reset it (which is obviously not acceptable behavior.) I was able to get around this when booting to my cf card by making / ro, which was my intention all along for that media.) I suspect this happens because there is a on that volume that is trying to replace something on / on either the USB boot img or on my CF card and this might be causing either to freak out.

Re: Backup and FreeBSD/ZFS
I have been using Amanda straight from the port, it supports both tar from snapshots if you need to be able to retrieve individual files from the backup and zfs send if recovery at filesystem level is OK. --glz --On Wednesday, February 03, 2010 11:05 AM +0100 Svein Skogen (Listmail Account) svein-listm...@stillbilde.net wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm currently considering switching my Backend (Running WSS2008 Enterprise) to FreeBSD RELENG_8+zfs, however my last melee with ZFS and backups to Autoloader (HP 1/8 G2 LTO-3 job) didn't quite turn out in my favour. Seems FreeBSD has a decent backup solution for UFS/2 (dump/restore) but such luxuries where nowhere to be found for ZFS (but the performance was quite good!). So, my question is this: Can someone point me to the proper place to start reading on getting RELENG_8+zfs backed up to tape robotics (or more specifically: LTO-3 with a HP autoloader)? Will going the Opensolaris route be easier? (I had hoped to be able to use net/istgt/ from ports, but I guess I could find a different solution to that problem in Solaris). Any pointers would really help me here. The storage backend will be on MFI arrays (set up with redundant striping + automagic weekly consistency checks of the arrays). //Svein - -- - +---+--- /\ |Svein Skogen | sv...@d80.iso100.no \ / |Solberg Østli 9| PGP Key: 0xE5E76831 X|2020 Skedsmokorset | sv...@jernhuset.no / \ |Norway | PGP Key: 0xCE96CE13 | | sv...@stillbilde.net ascii | | PGP Key: 0x58CD33B6 ribbon |System Admin | svein-listm...@stillbilde.net Campaign|stillbilde.net | PGP Key: 0x22D494A4 +---+--- |msn messenger: | Mobile Phone: +47 907 03 575 |sv...@jernhuset.no | RIPE handle:SS16503-RIPE - +---+--- If you really are in a hurry, mail me at svein-mob...@stillbilde.net This mailbox goes directly to my cellphone and is checked even when I'm not in front of my computer. - Picture Gallery: https://gallery.stillbilde.net/v/svein/ - -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktpSlIACgkQODUnwSLUlKRvRQCcCKgCzTSCr9PVfyQ9cveGkuUd xTIAn2IWherBzlLTu/02CBLJMo34Ky2m =ruSv -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ... the future isMobile Goran Lowkrantz goran.lowkra...@ismobile.com System Architect, isMobile, Aurorum 2, S-977 75 Luleå, Sweden Phone: +46(0)920-75559 Mobile: +46(0)70-587 87 82 Fax: +46(0)70-615 87 82 http://www.ismobile.com ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Bulding release in a jail????
I am trying to get a working release build environment in a jail but it fails because the release script needs to mount devfs in the chrooted build environment and the md devices used to build the images. I have set the following syscontrols vfs.usermount=1 security.jail.mount_allowed=1 security.jail.chflags_allowed=1 but still can't mount inside the jail. I have tried to make the to jail the chroot filesystem and can mount it within the jail (but not umount it???) but still can't mount the md devices on this jaild filesystem. Is it possible to build a release in a jail? What am I missing? /glz ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: Bulding release in a jail????
Well, it's not the jail devfs that's the problem, it's the one that needs to be mounted in the jailed release chroot, in my case under /usr/jails/release/usr/home/release/8/dev. The jail devfs is where it should be, /usr/jails/release/dev, that's no problem. /glz --On February 2, 2010 15:12:24 +0100 Christer Solskogen christer.solsko...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 2:28 PM, Goran Lowkrantz goran.lowkra...@ismobile.com wrote: but still can't mount inside the jail.
