ZFS GUI Should Check For /usr/lib/embedded_su at
the Beginning of Each Wizard (6326334)
If you add the SUNWzfsg package from a Solaris 10 8/07 or Solaris 10 5/08 release to a system
that runs a pre-Solaris 10 6/06 release, which does not have the embedded_su patch, the ZFS
Administration application wizards are not fully functional.
If you attempt to run the ZFS Administration application on a system without the embedded_su
patch, you will only be able to browse your ZFS conguration. The following error message is
displayed:
/usr/lib/embedded_su: not found
Workaround:
Add the embedded_su patch (119574-02) to the system that runs a pre-Solaris 10 6/06 release.
Fails to Sync File System on Panic (6250422)
If a host panics with le system I/O occurring to a target, which is connected by using the Solaris
iSCSI software initiator, the I/O might not be able to ush or sync to the target device. This
inability to ush or sync might cause le system corruption. No error message is displayed.
Workaround:
Use the journaling le system like UFS. Starting with Solaris 10, UFS logging is enabled by
default. For more information about UFS, see “What’s New in File Systems?” in System
Administration Guide: Devices and File Systems.
Upgrading From Some Solaris Express or Solaris 10
Releases Requires Remounting of File Systems
After you upgrade an NFSv4 server from Solaris Express 6/05 to Solaris Express 7/05 or later
(including all Solaris 10 updates), your programs might encounter EACCES errors.
Furthermore, directories might erroneously appear to be empty.
To prevent these errors, unmount and then remount the client le systems. In case unmounting
fails, you might need to forcibly unmount the le system by using umount -f. Alternatively, you
can also reboot the client.
