Hot to best upgrade OpenZFS and OS X
Posted: Sat Jan 30, 2016 1:11 amHi,
I'm happily running my /Users as a ZFS partition, using part of my SSD system disk as a cache to the /Users partition. So far so good.
Currently I'm running OS X Yosemity and OpenZFS version 1.4.2.
I can see that there's now support for El Capitan I would like to upgrade, but how should I go about this?
Tried to run the 1.4.5 installer, but it prompts me to export my pools. As my /Users dir are located on the pool this will not be straight forward, but can be done.
On the download page I can see that I need to download the El Capitan package....
So how should I go about this thing?
Should I,
Or is there a more straight forward way of doing this?

Should I,
- export my pool
- then upgrade the OS
- then upgrade OpenZFS
- and finaly import the existing pool
Or is there a more straight forward way of doing this?
