Can someone point me to a whitepaper, blog, or other document that discusses ZFS'' metadata structure and properties? Thanks, Michael _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
Have you read the "ZFS On-Disk Specification"?? http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ Or are you trying to find something specific??

My guess is that you''re looking for the on-disk format document: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/docs/ondiskformat0822.pdf If you''re more interested in the user-visible metadata (e.g. the settings for pools and filesystems), then you''d probably have to dig through the various manual pages.
