[zfs-discuss] s10u8: lots of fixes, any commentary?
So looking at the README for patch 14144[45]-09, there are ton of ZFS fixes and feature adds. The big features are already described in the update 8 release docs, but would anyone in-the-know care to comment or point out any interesting CR fixes that might be substantial in the areas of stability or performance? Thanks for what looks like a well-loaded KJP. /dale ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

My problem was creating the new BE to patch -- lucreate worked, but lumount was a disaster and left things so horribly messed up that even after a luumount and ludelete of the new BE, a reboot was required just to make the system sane (thankfully this was all in a maint window anyway). But it caused a bunch of stale mnttab entries that wouldn't go away as well as a bunch of 'already mounted' errors when you tried to do anything with the filesystems. I punted, rebooted to clear things up, did a zfs snapshot of everything, then patched the lived system (since I had a boot server I could use to mount the pool and rollback if needed).
