A coworker of mine ran into a large ZFS-related bug the other day. He was trying to install Sun Studio 11 on a ZFS filesystem and it just kept on failing. Then he tried to install on a UFS filesystem on the same machine and it worked just fine...
After much headscratching and testing and trussing he finally found the reason. pkgadd doesn't really handle filesystems with 5TB of free space (some statvfs() call fails when pkgadd tries to figure out if there is enough space available for the packages :-) (Yeah yeah - I know... Not really ZFS's fault :-) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
