Thank you very much for your quick response. My question is I want to figure out whether there is data loss after power outage. I have replicas on other machines so I can recovery from the data loss. But I need a way to know whether there is data loss without comparing the different data replicas.
I suppose if I append a footer to the end of file before I close it, I can detect the data loss by validating the footer. Is it a work aroud for me ? Or is there a better alternative? In my scenario, the file is append-only, no in-place overwrite. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
