In the old days of UFS, on occasion one might create multiple file systems (using multiple partitions) of a large LUN if filesystem corruption was a concern. It didn’t happen often but filesystem corruption has happened. So, if filesystem X was corrupt filesystem Y would be just fine.
With ZFS, does the same logic hold true for two filesystems coming from the same pool? Said slightly differently, I’m assuming that if the pool becomes mangled some how then all filesystems will be toast … but is it possible to have one filesystem be corrupted while the other filesystems are fine? Hmmm, does the answer depend on if the filesystems are nested ex: 1 /my_fs_1 /my_fs_2 ex: 2 /home_dirs /home_dirs/chris TIA!
