1. I've never run at a bug tat after ufs was 100% you need to fsck -
perhaps there's another problem?
Normally if you have a ufs file system hit 100% and you have a very high
level of system and application load on the box (that resides in the
100% file system) you will run into inode issues that require a fsck and
show themselves by not being about to long list out all their attributes
(ls -la). Not a bug, just what happens.
2. with ZFS you do not need to do anything - it should just work.
There was a bug in ZFS that after dataset was full you couldn't
delete a file - I hope it's been fixed by now.
