Hi, I have a customer with the following problem. He has a V440 running Solaris 10 1/06 with zones. In the case notes he says that he installed a couple Sol 10 patches and now he has problems booting his zones. After doing some checking he found that it appears to be related to a couple of ZFS patches (122650 and 122640). I found a bug (6271309 / lack of zvol breaks all ZFS commands), but not sure if it applies to this situation. Any ideas on this. Here is the customers problem description... Hardware Platform: Sun Fire V440 Component Affected: OS Base OS and Kernel Version: SunOS snb-fton-bck2 5.10 Generic_118833-18 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440 Describe the problem: Patch 122650-02 combined with patch 122640-05 seems to have broken no global zones at boot time. I'm just guessing at the exact patches since they were both added recently, and involve the files /usr/sbin/zfs and /lib/svc/method/fs-local which combined, cause the issue. This section of code in /lib/svc/method/fs-local: if [ -x /usr/sbin/zfs ]; then /usr/sbin/zfs mount -a >/dev/msglog 2>&1 rc=$? if [ $rc -ne 0 ]; then msg="WARNING: /usr/sbin/zfs mount -a failed: exit status $rc" echo $msg echo "$SMF_FMRI:" $msg >/dev/msglog result=$SMF_EXIT_ERR_FATAL fi fi causes the local file system service to exit with an error, and stop the boot process. The reason why is that the non global zone does not have access to /dev/zfs so the "/usr/sbin/zfs mount -a" command exits with an error code.
