We were talking about ZFS, and under what circumstances data is flushed to disk, in what way "sync" and "async" writes are handled by the OS, and what happens if you disable ZIL and lose power to your system. We were talking about C/C++ sync and async. Not NFS sync and async. I don't think anything relating to NFS is the answer to Casper's question, or else, Casper was simply jumping context by asking it. Don't get me wrong, I have no objection to his question or anything, it's just that the conversation has derailed and now people are talking about NFS sync/async instead of what happens when a C/C++ application is doing sync/async writes to a disabled ZIL. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
