[zfs-discuss] OpenSolaris to Ubuntu

2009-12-29 Thread Duane Walker
I tried running an OpenSolaris server so I could use ZFS but SMB Serving wasn't 
reliable (it would only work for about 15 minutes). I also couldn't get Cacti 
working (No PHP-SNMP support and I tried building PHP with SNMP but it failed).

So now I am going to run Ubuntu with RAID1 drives.  I am trying to transfer the 
files from my zpool (I have the drive in a USB - SATA chassis).

I want to mount the pool and then volume without destroying the files if 
possible.

If I create a pool will it destroy the contents of the pool?

From reading the doco and the forums it looks like zpool import rpool 
/dev/sdc may be what I want?

I did a zpool import but it didn't show the drive.  It was part of a mirror 
maybe zpool import -D?

I have built zfs-fuse and it seems to be working.

I was trying to get Cacti running and it was all working except the PHP-SNMP.  
I installed it but the SNMP support wasn't recognised (in phpinfo()).

I was reading the posts for the Cacti package and they said they were planning 
to add the SNMP support.

I am running a combination of Win7-64 and 32 bit computers and someone else 
mentioned that win7 64 causes problems.  The server itself was very stable and 
SCP (WinSCP) worked fine but SMB wouldn't stay up.  I tried restarting the 
servives but only a reboot would fix it.

I am more familiar with Ubuntu and Fedora.  We use Red Hat Enterprise and AIX 
at work.
