--tKW2IUtsqtDRztdT Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I have boot/root on one ZFS pool and for recovery purposes keep a second ZFS boot/root pool in case the first one becomes unbootable. My problem is that: 1) A zpool must be imported to be bootable 2) Most ZFS root filesystems have absolute mountpoints specified 3) /etc/rc.d/zfs automounts all imported ZFS filesytems results in double mounts of various filesystems. Can anyone suggest a way to configure a zpool or set of filesystems so that they will only be mounted if the root filesystem is within the zpool. I looked at the "zfs mount -a" in /etc/rc.d/zfs but there doesn't appear to be a suitable alternative. A variant that mounted all automount filesystems within a specified list of zpools would work but doesn't exist. Any other suggestions? How do other people handle this? --=20 Peter Jeremy --tKW2IUtsqtDRztdT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk+e/v8ACgkQ/opHv/APuIcxzgCfeyI1iBHFlaTFnL+Kfg/RBxsO A/sAn33+kgwe53QIIbtWMN6f6khVb+Mj =hNw9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --tKW2IUtsqtDRztdT--
