Is that enough info? ZFS is great but it is not perfect in every regard. It is easy to build a list of problems to be solved but they can''t be listed as disadvantages since they are not solved elsewhere either (or simply don''t apply).

All the problems, manual decisions during fsck and data recovery, head-aches after a power failure or getting disk drives mixed up after replacing a controller, not any more. Not with ZFS. It''s just not fair.... It''s really hard to charge a lot to "take care of" a zfs system.> plzz its urgent... > > help me..... > > > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > zfs-discuss mailing list > zfs-discuss at opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss >
It starts with Z, which makes it the one of the last to be considered if it''s listed alphabetically? Nathan.

Tell you what, go away, do some work on your own reading around the topics you''re interested in, and when you come back try asking some more intelligent questions instead of expecting us to do everything for you. You''ll find you get much more helpful replies that way. Right now you come across as a lazy kid who''s trying to get us to answer your homework questions for you.
