My hesitancy with updating is primarily due to lack of available time, and not because I don't want to update to hipster or illumos-current+oi_151a9. Is there a reason to not update to 'hipster' and to prefer illumos-current + stale oi_151a9 applications? I am noticing residue (e.g. iostat entries for non-existing hardware) left behind from previously replaced hard drives. Probably I did not use 'cfgadm' correctly to tell the system that a SAS drive was permanently removed. I think that the problem started from before I recently replaced a SAS drive though. It must be due to the flaky USB pool hardware. Bob ----------- Bob, No need to update to hipster, just update your kernel (osnet) consolidation. IPS: hipster-2015 Name: consolidation/osnet/osnet-redistributable This was just to update to the latest kernel environment patches from Illumos. Don't do anything without ensuring your specific bug is fixed (or improved) with any kernel update (saves time and effort). I going to put something on the WIKI to help resolve some of these issues. Interested if "re-generating /dev/rdsk and /dev/dsk device entries from scratch" resolves both problems.
