testing ZFS
hello all,
I downloaded the beta package and i am testing:
sh-3.2# zpool upgrade -v
This system is currently running ZFS version 6.
The following versions are supported:
VER DESCRIPTION
--- --------------------------------------------------------
1 Initial ZFS version
2 Ditto blocks (replicated metadata)
3 Hot spares and double parity RAID-Z
4 zpool history
5 Compression using the gzip algorithm
6 bootfs pool property and OSX directory type
For more information on a particular version, including supported releases, see:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/version/N
Where 'N' is the version number.
sh-3.2# chmod -R 777 /Volumes/piszkos/
sh-3.2# zpool history piszkos
History for 'piszkos':
2007-10-06.12:35:16 zpool create piszkos disk1s1
2007-10-06.12:37:35 zfs set compression=on piszkos
so i checked an i can tell you that version 6 cannot boot on x86 even in solaris but version 8 can be patient guys
i formated my external firewire drive in zfs and activated compression just to see what is happening i am copying some films on it about 90 GB.
the disk is now recognized as a volume tho.
I will keep you updated.
