X2200 in reboot loop & mounting ZFS drive on other boxes
So I was patching a Solaris 10 U08 X86 X2200 box in preparation for an Oracle upgrade. Rebooted the box because the patches failed and the box will not boot successfully. I need to back up the zones on the 2 drives before going further. I pulled the drives and attempted to mount them on my Ubuntu desktop to no avail. I tried to insert them in the X2200 box on a new Solaris install and they don't show up. Connecting the drives via USB gives me no results because I can't seem to get them mounted .

Thoughts on how I can get these drives mounted before repairing the OS? I have the X2200 and plenty of SPARC boxes to play with. However, the SPARC boxes are not SATA capable and mounting the drives via USB is not working.

I ended up installing zfs-fuse and attaching the SATA drive to my Ubuntu box and running zfs import to get the list of what's available, importing it using zfs import pool_name -F, and am now copying it over.

What's everybody think about upgrading the corrupt Solaris 10 U08 to U09 to fix it once the backups are done?

glutbuttonboxfunc

glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)					       GLUT						  glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)

NAME

       glutButtonBoxFunc - sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window.

SYNTAX

       void glutButtonBoxFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state));

ARGUMENTS

       func	 The new button box callback function.

DESCRIPTION

       glutButtonBoxFunc  sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. The dial & button box button callback for a window is
       called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial  &  button
       box button presses. The button parameter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box buttons can
       be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was
       due to a release or press respectively.

       Registering  a  dial & button box button callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this
       case, no dial & button box button callbacks will be generated.

       Passing NULL to glutButtonBoxFunc disables the generation of dial & button box button callbacks. When a new window is created,  no  dial  &
       button box button callback is initially registered.
