I agree, while we've done backups and restores of client data over NFS, I would be very leery of using it as a backend for storage pool data. I suspect you'll run into a conflict between what is safe (i.e. caching policy for dirty buffers) and what will perform well. Using something like NFS v4.1 m

Hi Eric, from my observation updating node to new policy domain is instantaneous no matter how many files are stored under the node. There is no way that during this instant operation files are re-bound from no-more-existing-in-new-domain management class to new domain's default management clas
