Either upgrade to preferably 11/06 or install a lot of patches.I don't think the zfs stuff is in the recommended patch set.But if you have a support contract, you can use update manager to bring it completely up to date and it will pick the up the zfs patches.

by the way :

I tried to pkgadd the following pkgs :

SUNWzfsu

SUNWzfsr

SUNWzfskr

SUNWzfsgu

SUNWzfsgr

on my solaris 10 (update 3/05), but the zpool is not working rigth.

so I belive there is other pkgs or patches that I need in order to install zfs on this masion.

The upgrade install with set all the packages/patches to be at the levels shipped with 11/06.

So if you have installed patches are more recent that this, then they will be effectively backed out.

So you would need to follow up the upgrade install with something like a recent recommended patch set to get everything up to date.

I used LiveUpgrade (lucreate \ luupgrade\luactivate) in order to upgrade from solaris 10(3.05) to solaris 10(11.06).

the upgrade finished succesfully, but then I check zfs command like : zpool, zfs

the upgrade install me only the simbolik links /use/sbin/zpool but to the actual file that should be located on /sbin/zpool !?!?

do you know why?

Weird, sounds like its failed to install one of the zfs packages.Thats the recommended method, so its supposed to work.You might want to open a job on it.

I found the cause of it.before the upgrade I tried to install the pkgs of the zfs(although there is no official procedure for that) ans then I upgrade the system.to fix it, I pkgrm the zfs pkgs and then upgrade the system.
