fsck vs zvol

[O'Connor, Daniel]

Hi,
I have a small UFS partition that is the sysvol for Samba 4 (otherwise it doesn't work due to ACL issues).

I found that I usually have to manually fsck it on a bad reboot, even if I have fsck_y_enable so I added a hack to /etc/rc.d/fsck to fsck -y that FS before the normal fsck runs.

Logging looks like..

Jun 12 09:45:41 moo kernel: Setting hostuuid: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-ac1f6b01103a.
Jun 12 09:45:41 moo kernel: Setting hostid: 0x6cbfec5d.
Jun 12 09:45:41 moo kernel: Starting file system checks:

Jun 12 09:45:41 moo kernel: Mounting /etc/fstab filesystems failed, startup aborted
Jun 12 09:45:41 moo kernel: ERROR: ABORTING BOOT (sending SIGTERM to parent)!

I'm not sure if marking this FS as 'late' would help (and/or break something else..)

Has anyone else tried something like this?

The Samba 4 ZFS is from https://wiki.freebsd.org/Samba4ZFS (which I wrote..)

Thanks.
