[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello, doing 'zfs snapshot' allows me a snapname length longer than make_dev_p() accepts (63 past /dev/). This leads to the situation that I can create a snashot of a zvol, but afterwards it's not accessable because there's no dev available: g_dev_taste: make_dev_p() failed (gp->name=zvol/…@test63limit, error=63) Is it desirable to allow longer dev names or limit snapshot names for zfs volumes? I haven't looked what zfs limits are, but I frequently have zfs names longer than 63 characters… Bad choosen? Or do others too have the need for longer dev names? Thanks, -Harry [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.18 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlPbp/EACgkQLDqVQ9VXb8grJwCfXArYE9njAOA8UDiRqELipLus MSoAoLqF4q7SsZucnZPRj5/PBWsg/ck6 =C9T7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
