Hi Matt,
You have several options in terms of migrating the data but I think the
best approach is to do something like I have described below.
Thanks,
Cindy
1. Create snapshots of the file systems to be migrated. If you
want to capture the file system properties, then see the zfs.1m
man page f
Hi Bill,
I'm assuming you've already upgraded to a Solaris 10 release that supports a UFS
to ZFS migration...
I don't think Live Upgrade supports the operations below. The UFS to ZFS
migration takes your existing UFS file systems and creates one ZFS BE in a root
pool. An advantage to this is th

Hi Alex
More scary than interesting to me.
What kind of hardware and which Solaris release?
Do you know what steps lead up to this problem? Any recent hardware
changes?
This output should tell you which disks were in this pool originally:

Hi Ketan,
What steps lead up to this problem?
I believe the boot failure messages below are related to a mismatch
between the pool version and the installed OS version.
If you're using the JumpStart installation method, then the root pool is
re-created each time, I believe. Does it also instal
Hi--
I don't know why the spare isn't kicking in automatically, it should.
A documented workaround is to outright replace the failed disk with one
of the spares, like this:
# zpool replace fwgpool0 c4t5000C5001128FE4Dd0 c4t5000C50014D70072d0
The autoreplace pool property has nothing to do with
Hi Darren,
Yes, a bootable root pool must be created on a disk slice.
You can use a cache device, but not a log device, and the cache device
must be a disk slice.
See the output below.
Thanks,
Cindy
# zpool add rpool log c0t2d0s0
cannot add to 'rpool': root pool can not have multiple vdevs o
Yes, the Solaris 10 9/10 release has the fix for RAIDZ checksum errors
if you have ruled out any hardware problems.

Hi Karl...

Drives go bad but they generally don't all go bad at once, so I would
suspect some common denominator like the HBA/controller, cables, and
so on.

Arjun,
Yes, you an choose any name for the root pool, but an existing
limitation is that you can't rename the root pool by using the
zpool export/import with new name feature.
Too much internal boot info is tied to the root pool name.
What info are you changing? Instead, could you create a new
Hi Albert,
I didn't notice that you are running the Solaris 10 9/10 release.
Although the autoexpand property is provided, the underlying driver
changes to support the LUN expansion are not available in this release.
I don't have the right storage to test, but a possible workaround is

You can add and remove mirrored or non-mirrored log devices.

Hi Jim,
Yes, the Solaris 10 9/10 release supports log device removal.

See Example 4-3 in this section.
The ability to import a pool with a missing log device is not yet
available in the Solaris 10 release.

Which Solaris release is this?

Hi Robert,
We integrated some fixes that allowed you to replace disks of equivalent

Yes, you can do #2 below and the pool size will be adjusted down to the
smaller size. Before you do this, I would check the sizes of both
spares.
If both spares a

I've seen some spare stickiness too and its generally when I'm trying to
