zone1 is a simple (native) fileserver, serving up a zfs filesystem (let's call it "TheFiles") mounted via lofs.
zone2 is an LX container for running backup software, accessing the same filesystem via lofs in read-only mode. (It's quite possible that last part is very inadvisable, known to be a Bad Idea, etc. This was a quick proof-of-concept, was going to switch the backup server to access a snapshot...) Anyway, attempting to stop zone1 just halted and never timed out. State is now "down". dmesg shows repeated failures of zoneadmd failing: "unable to unmount '/zones/UUDI/root/mnt/TheFiles', retrying in 2 seconds... ..."unmount of '/zones/UUDI/root/mnt/TheFiles' failed ...unable to unmount file systems in zone ...unable to destroy zone Note that while the process on the backup zone appeared to hiccup a bit, it's resumed just fine. So 1: Is this somewhat expected behavior, undefined, or a surprise? 2: Any recommendations on attempts to get zone back to a bootable "stopped" state? Would prefer to not have to reboot host. ------------------------------------------- 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
