We did a clean install of Oracle Solaris 11 (i86pc) on our x4540 THOR/thumper in order to facilitate an iSCSI target, for emergency use. The zpool was created with no errors. Following these directions:
Configuring iSCSI Devices With COMSTAR - Oracle Solaris Administration: Devices and File Systems
I get to the point of:
# stmfadm create-lu /dev/zvol/ddsk/sanpool/LUN1
stmfadm: data file error
Which is a completely ambiguous error. Searching Google, I see no meaningful information about it.
My first hunch was that because the underlying disks were formerly a raidz pool, this may be the cause. However, that being the case I would expect the zpool creation to either nullify that information for fail outright.
Anyone know what the problem could be? I have a support ticket in with Oracle Support; however, someone else may run into this error and would benefit from more useful information, too.
