Hi, I'm in the middle of a brainstorm over backup strategies and snapshots affidabilities. What are your final words on backup strategies of ZFS storages? What makes me brainstorm is expecially snapshots. How can I consider an iscsi snapshotted raw device safe, when I don't know what the virtual machine is doing on it with its own file system? This question makes me feel unsure of any backup strategy I may implement over exported volumes, where systems just write what they think it's their own file system. That's why I want to do CIFS for Windows servers, instead of giving the filesystem as a raw device to the primary domain controller. That's why I think it would be better to share volumes through NFS to linux and solaris servers. How can I be safe? :) Gabriele.
