Doc Text: |
Cause:
When updatedb is spawned by cron it prunes all "API" filesystems, i.e. filesystems which have no backing device, thus are marked as nodev in /proc/filesystems. ZFS on Linux is also marked nodev despite the fact it is filesystem used to actually store the data.
Consequence:
ZFS volumes are not indexed.
Fix:
Exception for ZFS was added to cron script thus when updatedb is spawned it will also index ZFS filesystems.
Result:
It is possible to search with locate for files stored on ZFS filesystems.
