Hi, this is true, but it might still be possible to use zfs in a distributed setup, as you can build pools from plain files that may be located anywhere on a network. Automatic status notification would require some custom scripting and it is obviously not recommended by sun ;-) The other drawback is that you can only use it as a single file- server, i.e. you have a performance bottleneck. I have tested thi setup as a secondary backup pool and it worked well (albeit slow) for me.
