Installing the official release[edit]

Download the most recent dmg from the Downloads page.

Verify the checksums.

$ md5 OpenZFS_on_OS_X_*.dmg
$ shasum OpenZFS_on_OS_X_*.dmg
$ shasum -a 256 OpenZFS_on_OS_X_*.dmg

Open the .dmg file.

Read ReadMe.rtf.

Start the installer by opening OpenZFS_on_OS_X_x.y.z.pkg.

Follow the prompts.

Bash completion is also available: see Bash_completion page

If you ever want to uninstall, follow the instructions for uninstalling a release version.

Installing from source[edit]

Initial installation from source[edit]

New-port: Currently recommended ./configure line is:

./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/gettext/include -I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/gettext/lib/ -L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib" CFLAGS="-g -O0" --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --prefix=/usr/local --sbindir=/usr/local/bin


Before doing anything else, please set your boot-args.

On macOS Mojave (10.14), High Sierra (10.13), Sierra (10.12), OS X El Capitan (10.11), OS X Mavericks (10.9), and OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) :

sudo nvram boot-args="-v keepsyms=1"

On OS X Yosemite (10.10):

sudo nvram boot-args="-v keepsyms=1 kext-dev-mode=1"


This will take effect the next time you reboot. The argument -v will make your boot screen verbose instead of just showing the Apple logo, the argument keepsyms=1 will make your panic reports more useful for us, and the argument kext-dev-mode=1 (OS X Yosemite ONLY) will allow you to load your custom-built, unsigned kexts kernel extensions. Note that as of OS X El Capitan, kext-dev-mode is obsolete and does nothing. If you are on macOS Sierra (10.12) or OS X El Capitan, you should remove kext-dev-mode from your boot-args to avoid confusion.

If you are a developer, you may want debug=0x144 in your boot-args as well, as explained here: Development


Tips for getting into recovery mode, useful if developing on a VM, type the following commands in a shell in the guest VM:

sudo nvram "recovery-boot-mode=unused"
sudo reboot recovery


For macOS Sierra (10.12) and OS X El Capitan (10.11), you also need to boot into the Recovery OS (either the Recovery partition or bootable OS X install media for 10.11) and run

csrutil disable

or

csrutil enable --without kext

The latter will allow you to load your custom-built, unsigned kernel extensions, while keeping the rest of System Integrity Protection (SIP) in place. (Depending on your needs, other options you may want are --without fs, --without debug, --without dtrace, or --without nvram. If you specify all of them, that is equivalent to csrutil disable. The --without option takes a comma-delimited list or can be specified multiple times: --without kext,debug,dtrace is equivalent to --without kext --without debug --without dtrace).

Starting with macOS Catalina, you will probably also want to disable the reboot to load kext using:

spctl kext-consent disable

During Recovery-Boot.


If you have any other implementation of ZFS installed, you must uninstall it and reboot before proceeding further. Similarly, if you have installed the O3X installer version, please follow the uninstallation directions before proceeding.

Prerequisites:

Note: Xcode 6.3 or later is now required to build due to Broadwell CPU support requirements. Additionally, as of XCode 8, if you are on 10.11 specifically (unnecessary on 10.12), you need to install the CLT (Command Line Tools):

xcode-select --install

To install Homebrew:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

If you already have Homebrew installed, you should

brew update && brew upgrade

Once Homebrew is installed or updated, you should check the output of

brew doctor

and address any issues it identifies that you know are not false positives.

If you have used brew before, you should also run

brew prune

Once your system is ready to brew, you should install the following:

brew install automake libtool gawk coreutils

(Note that autoconf will automatically be installed as well because it is a dependency of automake.)

Now that the needed tools are installed, it's time to set up your developer work space. Create two folders in your home directory.

mkdir -p ~/Developer ~/bin
chmod 700 ~/Developer ~/bin
chmod +a "group:everyone deny delete" ~/Developer ~/bin

Now adjust your PATH variable, unless you know it's already set appropriately.

If you're on OS X Mavericks or above (>= 10.9), run this:

echo 'export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile

If you're on OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), you will want to run this instead:

echo 'export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile

Then update your environment by sourcing your profile.

source ~/.bash_profile

To acquire the sources and build ZFS, we can use the zfsadm script found here.

cd ~/Developer/
git clone https://gist.github.com/7713854.git zfsadm-repo
cp zfsadm-repo/zfsadm ~/bin/

Now you can can build OpenZFS on OS X:

zfsadm

This will take a few minutes, depending on your hardware. There may be some warnings during the compilation. Do not worry about it unless you see errors.

Before using ZFS, we need to actually install it. If you are a developer and wish not to install ZFS, but rather run it from the compile directory, skip ahead.

cd ~/Developer/spl
sudo make install
cd ~/Developer/zfs
sudo make install

You can check to see if the kernel extensions loaded automatically with

kextstat | grep lundman

You should see something similar to

137    1 0xffffff803f61a800 0x20c      0x20c      net.lundman.kernel.dependencies (10.0.0)
144    1 0xffffff7f82720000 0xd000     0xd000     net.lundman.spl (1.0.0) <137 7 5 4 3 1>
145    0 0xffffff7f8272d000 0x202000   0x202000   net.lundman.zfs (1.0.0) <144 13 7 5 4 3 1>

If not, make sure kextd is aware of them.

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
sudo killall -HUP kextd

Now check again.

kextstat | grep lundman

If not, you can load the kexts manually.

cd /System/Library/Extensions
sudo kextload spl.kext
sudo kextload -d spl.kext zfs.kext

Try running

zpool

to see if everything is installed and configured properly.

You can go ahead and create your pools at this point.

Running ZFS from the source build[edit]

In the ZFS directory there is a script called load.sh which will load the two kext modules. To run userland binaries from the source tree, use the provided cmd.sh script to set the DYNDL_LIBRARY_PATH variable correctly to find the libraries.

Note that load.sh will also start tail -f /var/log/system.log for your convenience.

$ sudo bash# cd ~/Developer/zfs# ./load.shkernel[0]: SPL: Loaded module v1.3.1-15_g4e2ff66 (DEBUG mode), (ncpu 4, memsize 4294967296, pages 1048576)

# kextunload -b net.lundman.splkernel[0]: SPL: Released 524288 bytes from vmem_seg_arena
kernel[0]: SPL: Unloaded module. (os_mem_alloc: 0)

Upgrading a source install[edit]

When you want to get the latest commits from the GitHub, here's a quick overview of things you need to run.

First make sure you have exported all of your pools.

zpool list

For every pool listed, run

sudo zpool export $poolname

Alternatively, you can run:

sudo zpool export -a

which will try to export all pools for you.

Make sure they have exported successfully.

zpool status

It should say, "no pools available."

Get any zfsadm updates:

cd ~/Developer
[ -d zfsadm-repo/.git ] && (cd zfsadm-repo ; git pull)
[ ! -d zfsadm-repo/.git ] &&  git clone https://gist.github.com/7713854.git zfsadm-repo
cp zfsadm-repo/zfsadm ~/bin/

Now you should be able to upgrade your ZFS installation.

cd ~/Developer
 
cd spl
make clean
cd ..
 
cd zfs
make clean
cd ..
 
zfsadm
 
# Assuming the build completed successfully,
# unload the kexts.
 
zfsadm -u
 
# Now install the upgrade.
 
cd spl
sudo make install
cd ..
 
cd zfs
sudo make install
 
# And verify they reloaded automatically
 
kextstat | grep lundman
 
# If not, make sure kextd is aware of them
 
sudo touch /Library/Extensions /System/Library/Extensions
sudo killall -HUP kextd
 
# and check again
 
kextstat | grep lundman
 
# if they they still have not loaded automatically
 
cd /System/Library/Extensions
sudo kextload spl.kext
sudo kextload -d spl.kext zfs.kext

Uninstalling a source install[edit]

If you ever want to uninstall, follow the instructions for uninstalling a source install.

Using without actually installing (development)[edit]

This method is usually appropriate only for Developers.

The procedure is the same as found in the section installing from source except that you never run "make install." Instead you load the kexts manually, and execute the binaries directly from the source tree.

You can load the kexts manually by running

zfsadm -k

By default, zfsadm -k will copy spl.kext and zfs.kext from the source where they were built to /System/Library/Extensions, recursively change the ownership of everything in /System/Library/Extensions/spl.kext and /System/Library/Extensions/zfs.kext to be owned by the user "root" and the group "wheel," and then load the kexts directly from /System/Library/Extensions. If you prefer to use a different directory, use the -i option in zfsadm or edit zfsadm to hard code a different directory.

If you do not wish to use zfsadm, you can do all of this yourself, using whatever target directory you'd like. For example, you might do the following:

cd /tmp
sudo rm -rf o3x
sudo mkdir o3x
 
cd ~/Developer
sudo cp -R zfs/module/zfs/zfs.kext /tmp/o3x/ 
sudo cp -R spl/module/spl/spl.kext /tmp/o3x/
 
cd /tmp/o3x
sudo chown -R *
sudo kextload spl.kext
sudo kextload -d spl.kext zfs.kext

Once the kexts have been loaded, you can test the commands.

~/Developer/zfs/cmd.sh zfs

Migrating old pools (from MacZFS or ZEVO)[edit]

First export all of your pools, and uninstall the other implementation. It is all right if you forgot to export your pools before uninstalling. You will just need to use the '-f' option when importing into OpenZFS on OS X.

To find out the pool names, you need to execute the command for pool discovery.

sudo zpool import

This will tell you what pools are available to be imported, but will not actually import anything. You can see that nothing has been imported yet by using the 'zpool status' command.

zpool status

Now that you know what pools are available to be imported, you can actually import a pool by supplying the name or guid that you saw during pool discovery.

sudo zpool import poolname (or guid)

(Notice how this differs from the command for pool discovery.)

If you forgot to export before migrating, you will need to use the '-f' option.

sudo zpool import -f poolname (or guid)

If you want to see the same information you saw during pool discovery, you will now need to use 'zpool status' rather than 'zpool import'.

zpool status

If all pools have been imported, the pool discovery command— 'zpool import' with no pool or guid specified— will return without any output.

sudo zpool import
