There are some problems with the other A1000 cabinet, which totally freezes the poor Ultra2, when running a mirrored diskpool. Not even signs of life on the serial console, so I think this is hardware related. I'll keep that cabinet out of the testbed until I've investigated the hardware further. But on the other A1000 cabinet ZFS is running very happily. > Could you please give a zfs.ko built with the patch at: > http://people.freebsd.org/~marius/zfs_atomic_sparc64.diff > a try?

Send me an email if someone need access to the java building jail.
