Hi Tim,
Thanks for having a look.
The 'utf8only' setting is set to off.
Important bit of additional information:
We only seem to have this problem when copying to a zfs filesystem with the

eventually be shared over NFS and

Large sites that have centralized their data with a SAN typically have
a storage device export block-oriented storage to a server, with a
fibre-channel or Iscsi connection between the two. The server sees
this as a single virtual disk. On the storage device, the blocks of

I agree completely with your assessment of the problems Gary, when ZFS can't
correct your data you do seem to be at high risk of loosing data, although some
people are able to recover it with the help of a couple of helpful souls on
this forum.

I've never encountered that error myself, so I'm not at all sure this
suggestion will work, but I did run into something similar and the answer was
to install Windows on the drive and then pop the drive back in my server.
Prior to that, OpenSolaris/ZFS remembered the disk and wouldn't let me

I think it should. The zfs snapshot service could use this to snapshot on thaw

I think if you read the archives of this mailing list, and compare it to the

A while back I started a thread Possible ZFS panic on Solaris 10
Update 6 and it now turns out the cause is one incremental stream.
Sending this stream to an x86 system running Solaris 10 Update 6 or SXCE
b103 (and probably anything in between) panics the receiving system.
