Hi,

The root cause here is that although the Solaris 10 release has extended attributes, the Solaris 10 mv command does not understand the special
SUNWattr_ro/rw files that are included in the OpenSolaris 2008.11
release.

The reason that the rsync does not fail is that it just ignores the
extended attributes.

Regards,

Cindy

Hi I have opensolaris 2008.11 installed on x4500. This machine is working as temporary storage and scratch area. Each user has its own ZFS filesystem, we are using NIS, autofs , nfs. on (solaris10) db server, scratch server is mounted under /scratch. one of users on her filesystem created directory with database stuff. When she finished sql programing she wanted to mv this directory from /scratch/anna/db/ to /data/mysql, but she received this errors
% mv /scratch/anna/db /data/mysql
mv: cannot change owner and group of attribute SUNWattr_ro for file 
/scratch/anna/db/exclude_clean.tab: Not owner
mv: cannot change owner and group of attribute SUNWattr_rw for file 
/scratch/anna/db/exclude_clean.tab: Not owner
mv: Failed to preserve extended attributes of file  
/scratch/anna/db/exclude_clean.tab
