On a brand new X4500 running Solaris 10 I can't create a raidz set with spares.
I'm using:
zpool create -f -m /data legato_01 raidz c0t0d0 c1t0d0 c5t0d0 c7t0d0 c8t0d0 spare c8t7d0
The error message is
invalid vdev specification
the following errors must be manually repaired:
/dev/dsk/c8t7d0s0 is part of exported or potentially active ZFS pool zpool1. Please see zpool(1M).
This is fresh out-of-the box hardware. I've reinstalled Solaris 10 and this
is the first command we've tried with ZFS. I can create the raidz set without
the spare just fine. Since we haven't created anything in ZFS so I'm a bit
stumped about where "zpool1" is.
zpool status returns
no pools available
zfs list returns
no datasets available
prtvtoc on both the raidz devices and the spare device is the same, namely
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 976773167 sectors
* 976773100 accessible sectors
*
* Flags:
* 1: unmountable
* 10: read-only
*
* First Sector Last
* Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory
0 4 00 34 976756716 976756749
8 11 00 976756750 16384 976773133
Any help would, of course, be greatly appreciated.
