Re: [zfs-discuss] Help needed ZFS vs Veritas Comparison

I believe it will work on systems wich have more than 2 cores, however only 2 would actually end up being used by VxSF & 4 volumes is not a hard software limit from what I understand. It's important to note it will not come with any support, perhaps this is another point where ZFS rises above in t

Re: [zfs-discuss] Help needed ZFS vs Veritas Comparison

While you could have a wart-by-wart comparison, please remember that the biggest difference is that ZFS is free ($) and open source, while SF is costly (sometimes very costly) and closed source. The warts are just minor, mostly temporary, skin-deep issues. -- richard Mike Gerdts wrote: > On Dec
