I don't know anyone who would tolerate a requirement to go into milestone/single-user for scrubs. The way it works is that ZFS schedules I/O with a priority scheme. Scrubs have a lower priority than most other operations. Regular reads and writes will have higher priority. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
