Not able to delete file with zfs file system full

807557Jun 4 2010 — edited Jun 7 2010
Hi all,

I have a Sun-Fire-880 with Solaris 10. File system is zfs.
The pool for users is presently full but I am not able to delete any file. I am connected with root account.
When I do the command "rm" or "unlink", I get the message "no space left on device".
I looked on Internet and some people say to copy null onto a file before removing it. When I did that, I got the same error.
There are no snapshot, so I can't delete them.

Thanks for any help or idea
Jose
