Joerg just posted a lengthy answer to the fsck question: http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/6071-No,-ZFS-really-doesnt-need-a-fsck.html
Good stuff. I see two answers to "nobody complained about lying hardware before ZFS". One: The user has never tried another filesystem that tests for end-to-end data integrity, so ZFS notices more problems, and sooner. Two: If you lost data with another filesystem, you may have overlooked it and blamed the OS or the application, instead of the inexpensive hardware. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
