I happened to remember seeing "ZFS-0313" during a ZFS demo while
using iPods as storage devices. As innovation would have it, we''d
though of sing 2GB USB sticks as well as the iPod 60GB drives just for a mini
SAN-type ZFS pool.
Seems a lot of things are set for B36, yet we saw the demo on an older build
(33?). Comments were passed back on if we''d get ZFS-final by Sol10u4
(late summer) or by Sol10u2.
The ZFS demo shows off an impressive filesystem - yet widespread adoption is
needed before migration of heavy investments in high-availability solutions to
ZFS is seriously considered.
I''m looking forward to see ZFS maintaining a large pool of 332TB - 40PB
of storage with compression on. Mostly in conditions dealing with real time
usage and heavy transaction processing whether in travel, banking, or finance.
