Hi Lori,
Is the u8 flash support for the whole root pool or an individual BE
using live upgrade?
Thanks
Peter

The whole pool. Although you can choose to exclude individual datasets
from the flar when creating it.

Hi Karl,
Manually cloning the root pool is difficult. We have a root pool
recovery procedure that you might be able to apply as long as the
systems are identical. I would not attempt this with LiveUpgrade
and manually tweaking.
As Cindy said, this isn't trivial right now.
Personally, I'd do it this way:
ASSUMPTIONS:
* both v210 machines are reasonably identical (may differ in RAM or CPU
speed, but nothing much else).
* Call the original machine A and the new machine B
* machine B has no current drives in it.
Hi Peter,
I can't provide it because I don't know what it is.
Even if we could provide a list of items, tweaking
the device informaton if the systems are not identical
would be too difficult.

Thanks for the help.
Since the v210's in question are at a remote site. It might be a bit of a pain
getting the drives swapped by end users.
So I thought of something else. Could I netboot the new v210 with snv_115, use
zfs send/receive with ssh to grab the data on the old server, install the

I'm not sure I'm following everything. If you can't swap the drives,
the which pool would you import?
If you install the new v210 with snv_115, then you would have a bootable
root pool.
You could then receive the snapshots from the old root pool into the
root pool on the new v210.

Hi Cindy,

AFIK zfs doesn't care about the device names it scans for them
it would only affect things like vfstab.
I did a restore from a E2900 to V890 and is seemed to work

It might, but it's hard to say whether that would accomplish everything
needed to move a root file system from one system to another.
I just
