I've been attempting to rebuild the system that became munted due to
dodgy Seagate drives and I can't get the installer to create the zones
pool correctly or pick up an existing pool.
The installer went through the motions, but no pool was created (I
double check with a no-install session).
If I create an export a zones pool form a no-install session, shouldn't
it be seen by the installer? I'm sure it used to..
It might help to not that if there is an existing pool, the installer
appears to reboot cleanly, if there isn't I briefly see a no such file
or directory error when it attempts to copy /usbkey/config, presumably
to the non-existent pool.
Does the installer do anything checks before zfs create? Could there be
some condition that (silently) prevents it creating the pool when it can
be created from a no-install session?
This has me flummoxed...
I suspected the SAS backplane, but installing to a SATA SSD also fails
(nothing appears to be written to the drive).
Solaris installs and runs fine, all of the drives check out OK and have
been pounded without errors.
Is there a way to see what the installer is doing behind the scenes?
I suspect I'm seeing Illumos issue 1778, as I get the same assert
(rn->rn_nozpool == B_FALSE, file ../common/libzfs_import.c, line 1077,
function zpool_open_func), now at line 1080 when I try to import the
pool the installer created in a no-install session. Bugger.
