I have a sabayon server install and I am trying to setup a zfs pool for data storage but the zfs modules will not load. ZFS is installed and I can add the boot and shutdown scripts for it but there is still a problem and I have no idea what is wrong.

Code: Select all: ava-admin@fileserver02 / $ sudo /etc/init.d/zfs start * Starting ZFS ... * Checking if ZFS modules present * zfs not found. Is the ZFS package installed? * ERROR: zfs failed to start ava-admin@fileserver02 / $ equo search installed zfs >> @@ Searching... >> @@ Package: sys-fs/zfs-userspace-20120903 branch: 5, [sabayon-weekly] >> Available: version: 20120903 ~ tag: NoTag ~ revision: 0 >> Installed: version: 20120903 ~ tag: NoTag ~ revision: 0 >> Slot: 0 >> Homepage: http://zfsonlinux.org/ >> Description: The Solaris Porting Layer and ZFS >> Filesystem userspace utilities >> License: CDDL GPL-2 GPL-3 >> Keywords: installed, zfs >> Found: 1 entry ava-admin@fileserver02 / $

Do I have an incorrect package installed for ZFS or could it be an issue with the 3.6.0 kernel?

Code: Select all: ava-admin@fileserver02 / $ sudo eselect kernel list Password: Available kernel symlink targets: [1] linux-3.5.0-server [2] linux-3.6.0-sabayon [3] linux-3.6.0-server * ava-admin@fileserver02 / $

Ok, an update:

"equo search zfs" on my desktop yields:

I notice the revision numbers are different (2824 vs 2662). Is the differance due to the different arcitectures? Does x86 not have a zfs solution? If so, then why does the userspace package show up?

From your equo status I can see your server architecture is x86, unfortunately ZFS doesn't work on that architecture right now, so ZFS kernel modules are missing.

Ahh, then that would explain it. Since "sys-fs/zfs-userspace-20120903" was showing on a search I assumed it was supported. Thanks for the reply.

If you do get ZFS online, let me know how you like it - I'm considering a new 2-3TB personal storage and there seem to be a plethora of articles about ZFS, BTRFS, VS, etc...
