I am sure this is a trivial issue, but I am not finding the answer. I am experimenting with zfs and in particularly backing out patches or other changes that go south. With ufs we would break the mirror so that we could reboot from the mirror if we needed to back out the change. With zfs we would like to take a snapshot of the volume and then revert back to that snapshot if necessary The pool on my test box is egate-pool. It contains a mirror of two 146g drives. I took a zfs snapshot: zfs snapshot egate-pool@feb24 root on cbar-test1:/# zfs list NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT egate-pool 6.46G 127G 106K /egate-pool egate-pool@feb24 1K - 106K - egate-pool/ROOT 2.96G 127G 31K legacy egate-pool/ROOT/s10s_u10wos_17b 2.96G 127G 2.93G / egate-pool/ROOT/s10s_u10wos_17b/var 36.1M 127G 36.1M /var egate-pool/dump 1.50G 127G 1.50G - egate-pool/export 63K 127G 32K /export egate-pool/export/home 31K 127G 31K /export/home egate-pool/swap 2.00G 129G 16K - root on cbar-test1:/# I then made a bunch of changes on the system (added users, changed shells, added directories, etc) and then attempted to back it out: zfs rollback egate-pool@feb24 even after a reboot there is no rollback. There also is no error, so I do not know what it does not like. Christopher L. Barnard ------------------- comment your code as if the maintainer is a homicidal maniac who knows where you live.
