Just a clarification, ZFS not only detects metadata corruption through the use of checksums but, since it keeps 2-3 copies of each metadata block on-disk (even on non-replicated pools), it also rewrites the corrupted blocks, effectively repairing the corruption. All of this is done transparently to the user but, of course, it's possible to see a report of checksum failures. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
