Hi, I recommended a ZFS-based archive solution to a client needing to have a network-based archive of 15TB of data in a remote datacentre. I based this on an X2200 + J4400, Solaris 10 + rsync. This was enthusiastically received, to the extent that the client is now requesting that their live system (15TB data on cheap SAN and Linux LVM) be replaced with a ZFS-based system. The catch is that they're not ready to move their production systems off Linux - so web, db and app layer will all still be on RHEL 5.
Considered zones/virtualisation? Just a wild thought. --Toby
