The issue with ZIL not being replayed in case of read-only mount has nothing to do with the fact of SLOG device presence. The issue is the same when ZIL resides on the main disks of the pool. So while everything else you said is right, I see no any reason to ban pools with SLOG devices in this context. -- Alexander Motin _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
