    Hi all,

    I just upgraded to a more recent version of 8.0-STABLE, and I
    noticed during boot that zfs had changed from version 13 to version
    14. Is it safe to run zpool upgrade -a on a system while in
    multiuser, or will I have to take some security measures, such as
    creating a complete backup and/or booting into singleuser?

Its fine to upgrade a pool in multi user mode as it is with most things
zfs. However beware when up upgrade a pool as once you have you cant go
back, and if you want the revert to your previous install you wont be
able to. Therefore a general rule of thumb is unless you need a new
feature on a new pool version dont upgrade it. A least wait a few weeks
until your new install is fully bedded in and tested

Thanka. Since I have no idea what "passthrough-x aclinherit support" does and I've been fine without it so far, I guess I'll stick with version 13 for now then. :)
