You do if you want self-healing, as Tomas points out. A non-redundant pool, even on mirrored or RAID storage, offers no ability to recover from detected errors anywhere on the data path. To gain this benefit of ZFS, it needs to manage redundancy. On the upside, ZFS at least *detected* the errors, while other systems would not. --Toby > > On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 4:17 AM, Remco Lengers <re...@lengers.com > <mailto:re...@lengers.com>> wrote: > > Todd, > > Is that ZFS on top of VxVM ?
