I've been testing the ZFS root recovery using 10u6 and have come across a very odd problem.
When following this procedure I the disk I am setting up my rpool on keeps reverting to an EFI label. http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5461/ghzur?l=en&a=view Here is what the exact steps I am doing; > boot net -s # mount -F nfs remote-system:/ipool/snapshots /mnt # format -e (Change the label to SMI and check after) # prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 * /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 partition map * * Dimensions: * 512 bytes/sector * 424 sectors/track * 24 tracks/cylinder * 10176 sectors/cylinder * 14089 cylinders * 14087 accessible cylinders * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * First Sector Last * Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory 2 5 01 0 143349312 143349311 6 4 00 0 143349312 143349311 # zpool create -f -o failmode=continue -R /a -m legacy -o cachefile=/etc/zfs/zpool.cache rpool c1t0d0 # cat /mnt/rpool.2406 | zfs receive -Fdu rpool # zfs list NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT rpool 5.55G 61.4G 96K /a/rpool rp...@2406 0 - 96K - rpool/ROOT 4.40G 61.4G 20K legacy rpool/r...@2406 0 - 20K - rpool/ROOT/beroot 4.40G 61.4G 4.40G /a rpool/ROOT/ber...@2406 0 - 4.40G - rpool/dump 1.00G 61.4G 1.00G - rpool/d...@2406 0 - 1.00G - rpool/export 147M 61.4G 147M /a/export rpool/exp...@2406 0 - 147M - rpool/export/home 20K 61.4G 20K /a/export/home rpool/export/h...@2406 0 - 20K - rpool/swap 16K 61.4G 16K - rpool/s...@2406 0 - 16K - # zpool set bootfs=rpool/ROOT/beroot rpool cannot set property for 'rpool': property 'bootfs' not supported on EFI labeled devices # prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 * /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 partition map * * Dimensions: * 512 bytes/sector * 143374738 sectors * 143374671 accessible sectors * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * Unallocated space: * First Sector Last * Sector Count Sector * 34 222 255 * * First Sector Last * Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory 0 4 00 256 143358065 143358320 8 11 00 143358321 16384 143374704 # If I destory the rpool and go back into format -e the label is set to EFI as confirmed by the vtoc above! I'm stumped by this one. Is this a known problem with 10u6?
