Certain file systems require devices with specific tags. Please correct me if I am wrong, but I was under the impression that I can use a Zvol for any filesystem.

Since there's no disk driver managing the zvol, there's no VTOC (unless you put one one there yourself). Conceptually it's very similar to a SVM metadevice. How would you want to use tags on a zvol? They're almost completely unused by the system anyway. Presumably a zvol (and other zfs objects) could have a property that served the same purpose. -- Darren Dunham [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Technical Consultant TAOS http://www.taos.com/ Got some Dr Pepper?
