It depends if you use SVM (Solaris Volume Manager) or ZFS.

For ZFS you can easily activate compression for the dataset (filesystem) using:

pfexec zfs set compression=on the-name-of-your-pool/your-dataset

ZFS Compression - A Win-Win - The Observatory

I don't know if it is possible something like this using SVM or UFS.

Leandro.

If no arguments are specified, zdb, performs basic consistency checks on the pool and associated datasets, and report any problems detected. Any options supported by this command are internal to Sun and subject to change at any time. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 The pool is consistent. 1 An error was detected. 2 Invalid command line options were specified. ATTRIBUTES
