Cannot snapshot zone

bax · 10-17-2010, 01:59 PM

For the life of me, I cannot figure out the syntax unless it's my configuration. Zone path is /zpool/zones/oracle11zone2 It is not running.

Code:

-bash-3.00# zfs snapshot zpool/zones/oracle11zone2@prepatch
cannot open 'zpool/zones/oracle11zone2': dataset does not exist
-bash-3.00# zfs snapshot /zpool/zones/oracle11zone2@prepatch
cannot snapshot '/zpool/zones/oracle11zone2@prepatch': leading slash in name

Code:

-bash-3.00# zpool status
  pool: rpool
 state: ONLINE
 scrub: none requested
config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        rpool       ONLINE       0     0     0
          c1t1d0s0  ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

  pool: zpool
 state: ONLINE
 scrub: none requested
config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        zpool       ONLINE       0     0     0
          raidz2    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1t0d0  ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1t2d0  ONLINE       0     0     0
            c1t3d0  ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors
-bash-3.00#

What am I missing?

What do "zfs list" and "zoneadm list -vc" return?

Thank you for helping!

You didn't create a dataset (filesystem) for that zone thus you cannot snapshot a non existing dataset. You might snapshot the whole zpool one but that would be less convenient.
