[zfs-discuss] Lucky timing on disabling a slog

2010-10-23 Thread Brandon High
I set up a slog and cache device using slices on a 30g OCZ Vertex 2 about a year ago. In late August, I decided that it wasn't worth it to have the slog on a drive that might fail to honor cache flushes, especially since most of the writes I'm doing are via smb which don't need a slog as direly as

Hi list, while preparing for the changed ACL/mode_t mapping semantics coming with onnv-147 [1], I discovered that in onnv-134 on my system ACLs are not inherited when aclmode is set to passthrough for the filesystem. This very much puzzles me. Example: $ uname -a SunOS os 5.11 snv_134 i86pc i386
