hi all,
I am new to solaris.
I am creating a zfs filestore which should boot via rootfs.
The version of the system is: SunOS store1 5.10 Generic_118855-33 i86pc
i386 i86pc.
Now I have seen that there is a new rootfs support for solaris starting
with build: snv_62.
(http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/zfsboot-manual/)
Is it
a) possible to start from a raidz pool?
No. At this point raidz pool is not usable as a boot pool.
Is this possible then to use a mirror pool?

Are there any plans tyo suppport raid-10 for rootfs?
I don't know what raid-10 is, but we do have plans to support
booting from RAID-Z. The design is still being worked
out, but it's likely that it will involve a new kind of dataset which
is replicated on each disk of the RAID-Z pool, and which contains
the boot archive and other crucial files that the booter
needs to read. I don't have a projected date for when it will be
available. It's a lower priority project than getting the install support
for zfs boot done.
