Hi all,
as I am newbie in ZFS, yesterday I played with it a little bit and there
are so many good things but I've notes few things I couldn't explain
so.....
1) It's not possible anymore within a pool create a file system with a
specific size....If I have 2 file systems I can't decide to give for
example 10g to one and 20g to the other one unless I set a reservation
for them. Also I tried to manually create pool with slices and have for
each pool a FS with the size I wanted......Is that true?
The whole point of ZFS is that you don't need to worry about this type
of thing. As you have already noticed if you really want to you can use
reservations to do this but it is often better to not set reservations
or quotas unless it is really needed. The great thing about ZFS is you
have the flexibility to choose, and you can easily change your mind
later without having to deal with a volume manager and a file system.
