I provided a blurb about this issue, here: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Troubleshooting_Guide#Live_Upgrade_Problem_.28Starting_in_Nevada.2C_build_125.29 Its a good idea to review this page whenever you are considering upgrading to the next build.

I just finished the upgrade. detach one disk from the mirror, then luactivate b126 and init 6, after it reboots, attach the disk to the mirror again, all went smoothly.

But you have to apply the "little hack" I posted two weeks ago or so (add dev=`echo $dev | sed 's/mirror.*/mirror/'` after line 238) to /usr/lib/lu/lulib which comes with b126, too, to get lu working on mirrored root pools.

Re: [zfs-discuss] heads up on SXCE build 125 (LU + mirrored root pools)
Hi Rich, In build 125, the device naming changed for redundant pools. LU doesn't understand the new device naming if you have a mirrored root pool. I believe an upgrade from 121 to 126 will be okay. Any LU operation on your build 126 system will likely fail unless you follow Casper's steps for modifying LU scripts. Or, you detach your secondary mirrored disk, run the LU operation, reattach the secondary mirrored disk. The CR is 6894189.

What luupgrade do you use? I uninstall lu package in current build first, then install new lu package in the verion to upgrade. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Just ran into this yesterday... The change to get things going again

With this "little hack" luactivate, lucreate and ludelete (that's what I just

YMMV
