Well yes you can. Carsten and I are both talking about silent data corruption errors, and the way to simulate them is to do what Carsten did. However I pointed out that he may have tested only easy corruption cases (affecting the P or Q parity only) -- it is tricky to simulate hard-to-recover corruption errors... -marc _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
