Thank you, Mr. Coalson.  I appreciate it very much, although, unfortunately, 
I’m still not sure what you mean by the amount of bytes referenced by the file 
system.  But in executing your "zfs list -o space” command, if what they label 
as “USED” is what is actually on the disk, that is very helpful, and something 
I can understand.  

Like I’ve said before on this list, I’m not very good at system admin work.  I 
wish I could find someone we could hire to do all this stuff for us.  That’d be 
real nice.

Is there any way to tell why the swap is so high?  This machine has loads of 
RAM.  Or is that normal for Solaris?

And does anything else stand out to any of you?

I was saying 10 G because if you look at the output for “zfs list -t snapshot”, 
it seems like if we add up the snapshots  that have "@2014-07-05”, we would get 
something like this:

rpool/ROOT/OpenIndiana-151a7-2014-0706A@2014-07-05-23:13:53   157M      -  
3.48G  -
rpool/zones/archive/ROOT/zbe-2@2014-07-05-23:13:59           8.08G      -  
27.9G  -
rpool/zones/mysql/ROOT/zbe-2@2014-07-05-23:13:57              118M      -   
814M  -
rpool/zones/routerb2/ROOT/zbe-2@2014-07-05-23:13:55          2.35G      -  
8.60G  -
rpool/zones/tomcat/ROOT/zbe-2@2014-07-05-23:14:02            46.0M      -   
830M  -
 
That would add up to 10 G.  So, given that, would destroying that boot 
environment free up 10G?

And MOST IMPORTANTLY, could I SAFELY do that with the “beadm destroy -s 
OpenIndiana-151a7-2014-0705A” command?


My “beadm list" is here:
