How to mount a LOFS in Solaris that doesn’t cross mountpoints
- by jcea
I need to access my "root" ZFS dataset to delete a file under "/var". But "/var" is overlayed by another ZFS dataset. Since these are system datasets I can't "umount" them while the machine is running. And I want to avoid to reboot the system in "failsafe" mode, since this is a production machine.
Teorically ZFS would refuse to mount "/var"…
