How should I be backing up my ‘zones’ pool, because I am obviously doing it wrong The easiest way is to do the recv inside a zone with delegated datasets. If you use znapzend, you can also make it do the recv with -u, which works fine - until next reboot. Before the reboot, you need to do a recursive inherit on the mountpoint, or set of canmount. Then when you want to restore from backup, you need to pay attention to the received version of properties rather than the local overrides. I've often wished for an inherited version of canmount, precisely for the case where descendant dataset has a separate mountpoint, or just really to specify that nothing below here should be mounted. Using zoned is a viable workaround. > 3. Is it in fact the case that the system is unusable because when svc:system/filesystem/local fails that zones/usbkey is not being read from? The service dependency is failing. There's no point trying to read the config if the service that's supposed to mount it reports failure. ------------------------------------------- smartos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/184463/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/184463/25769125-55cfbc00 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=25769125&id_secret=25769125-7688e9fb Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
