I commented out this line: #use rmdisk drive /dev/rdsk/c*s2 dev_rmdisk.so rmdisk%d and then all was good. With a bit more care, some removable devices could be handled differently than others so you could just exclude the ones used for zfs.

Re: [zfs-discuss] USF drive on S10u7
Hi Dick, The Solaris 10 volume management service is volfs. If you attach the USB hard disk and run volcheck, the disk should be mounted under the /rmdisk directory. If the auto-mounting doesn't occur, you can disable volfs and mount it manually. You can read more about this feature here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-5093/medaccess-29267?a=view Cindy On 07/28/09 07:56, dick hoogendijk wrote: What is the best way to attach an USB harddisk to Solaris 10u7?
