RE> VxVM has far fewer features than ZFS, you really can't compare them. RE> You could compare VxVM to SVM more directly. I can't agree. VxVM + VxFS vs. ZFS is a good comparison. One good feature in VxVM/VxFS is an ability to shrink a "pool" or change RAID on-the-fly. Then you can change speed of resilvering or even freeze it if you want. Hot spare support is probably still better (I haven't looked at latest improvements in ZFS yes). We're not there yet. -- Best regards, Robert Milkowski mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://milek.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
