ZFS flash install "Unable to create Filesystem error"
Hi,
I am trying to get an HPz420 workstation instaled (zfs root pool) via a jump-start server.
I have a zfs image (from this workstation) the Solaris release is 10 1/13 update 11.
I use a sparc U25 install server, upgraded to the same solaris build 10 1/13.
This server is configured to install both Sparc and x86; For UFS it works fine.
The zfs flash_ install, reads the sysid.cfg and rules.ok file.
The nfs mount is ok.
It even says it will create the rootpool, de zvol for swap and dump. When the zfs filsystem needs to be created, the installation aborts.
The error reads:
Could not create filesystem.
Inposible to check or verrify some sytem critical files.
The disk has an SMI label.
The disk portion of the .profile file reads:
fdisk all solaris all
pool rpool auto 4g 4g c0t0d0s0
Is it posible to flash install a root pool zfs from a UFS jumpstart server?

AMZFS-SENDRECV(8) System Administration Commands AMZFS-SENDRECV(8)
NAME
amzfs-sendrecv - Amanda script to create zfs sendrecv
DESCRIPTION
amzfs-sendrecv is an Amanda application implementing the Application API. It should not be run by users directly. It create a zfs snapshot
of the filesystem and backup the snapshot with 'zfs send'. Snapshot are kept after the backup is done, this increase the disk space use on
the client but it is neccesary to be able do to incremental backup. If you want only full backup, you can disable this feature by setting
the KEEP-SNAPSHOT property to 'NO'. Only the restoration of the complete backup is allowed, it is impossible to restore a single file.
The application is run as the amanda user, it must have many zfs priviledge:
zfs allow -ldu AMANDA_USER mount,create,rename,snapshot,destroy,send,receive FILESYSTEM
Some system doesn't have "zfs allow", but you can give the Amanda backup user the rights to manipulate ZFS filesystems by using the
following command:
usermod -P "ZFS File System Management,ZFS Storage Management" AMANDA_USER
This will require that your run zfs under pfexec, set the PFEXEC property to YES.
The format of the diskdevice in the disklist (DLE) must be one of:
Desciption Example
---------- -------
Mountpoint /data
ZFS pool name datapool
ZFS filesystem datapool/database
ZFS logical volume datapool/dbvol
The filesystem doesn't need to be mounted.
PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control amzfs-sendrecv's functionality. See amanda-applications(7) for information on the
Application API, application configuration.
DF-PATH
Path to the 'df' binary, search in $PATH by default.
KEEP-SNAPSHOT
If "YES" (the default), snapshot are kept after the backup, if set to "NO" then snapshot are no kept and incremental backup will fail.
ZFS-PATH
Path to the 'zfs' binary, search in $PATH by default.
PFEXEC-PATH
Path to the 'pfexec' binary, search in $PATH by default.
PFEXEC
If "NO" (the default), pfexec is not used, if set to "YES" then pfexec is used.
EXAMPLE
In this example, a dumptype is defined to use amzfs-sendrecv application to backup a zfs filesystem.
define application-tool amzfs_sendrecv {
comment "amzfs-sendrecv"
plugin "amzfs-sendrecv"
#property "DF-PATH" "/usr/sbin/df"
#property "KEEP-SNAPSHOT" "YES"
#property "ZFS-PATH" "/usr/sbin/zfs"
#property "PFEXEC-PATH" "/usr/sbin/pfexec"
#property "PFEXEC" "NO"
}
define dumptype user-zfs-sendrecv {
program "APPLICATION"
application "amzfs_sendrecv"
}
