Thanks Rob

I also did that as your talk last year shows - however
whenever the /vicep* partition goes over 1000GB I get
negative numbers - not sure why..as you can
see Sun Volume Manager seems to work - do you
(or anyone else on this list) have zfs
/vicep* partitions larger than 1000 GB?


e.g.

df shows

# df -h | grep vicep
/dev/md/dsk/d30        790G   3.0G   779G     1%    /vicepz
vicepa                 500G    28K   500G     1%    /vicepa
tank/vicepb           1000G    77K  1000G     1%    /vicepb
/dev/md/dsk/d50        1.8T    64M   1.8T     1%    /vicepx
tank/vicepc            1.5T    67K   1.5T     1%    /vicepc
#

# zfs list -r tank
NAME          USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
tank          339K  8.87T  60.9K  /tank
tank/vicepb  77.0K  1000G  77.0K  /vicepb
tank/vicepc  67.1K  1.50T  67.1K  /vicepc
