The failmode solved an event scenario where if a SAN device restarted during a ZFS write, ZFS would panic the host, and the pool was left in an failed state. With failmode, ZFS will patiently wait and continue when the restart is completed.
Remember when I said the SAN corruption issue was not root-caused?
If your SAN corrupts data, how can you blame ZFS? -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
