So, previously I installed with the wrong timezone, and after fixing the
timezone, I found the time-slider service in maintenance mode, which seemed
to be because it tried to make a snapshot with a name that already existed,
due to the time having been adjusted back by an hour. I shrugged it off
because the mistake was initially mine.
However, the end of daylight savings time here has caused the same
behavior, and made time-slider stop taking snapshots without making any
noise. Is this something that has been addressed before? If not, I will
open a bug, but I thought I would post to the list partly in case this has
caught someone else unaware.
Here is what the end of
/var/svc/log/application-time-slider:default.log says:
Failed to create snapshots for schedule: hourly
Caught RuntimeError exception in snapshot manager thread
This sounds familiar and I found this old bug report:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!msg/comp.unix.solaris/VAf6v02EQZk/-Mook698kXYJ
"6996354 time-slider fails when daylight saving time ends"
The only other reference to that bug I can find is
https://github.com/bdrewery/time-slider/commit/4ba07f0c289bbb4dff9c4555c9eed1de2c90ffed
"Fix for 6996354 gracefully handle snapshot failure"
with minor changes to
usr/share/time-slider/lib/time_slider/util.py
usr/share/time-slider/lib/time_slider/zfs.py
