So far I understand that if a file is to be modified, it will first copy the data to be modified in a new location in the ZFS pool, then modify that new data and do all the ZFS voodoo it does, and ultimately do the very last step of the operation (which I think is the final change of the pointers). But what if the power goes out at exactly the same time as this very last step happens? Don't I have a lost or corrupted file then?
If not, can someone explain to me why? Thanks! This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
