The problem with ZFS on linux is license related more than technical.
It exists for ubutnu so I can use it from a ppa for testing.
I would like to understand more about this license issue.
If you can sound me with more about it will help me understand the
issue.
Thanks,

Dear All,
This list reminds me of the wizards in the Terry Pratchett novels -
confronted with a need to take action they would by far rather discuss
all possibilities, however remote, than address the need in a simple
way, after all they're WIZARDS.
The discussion has been pretty interesting, I've figured out what I
wanted to know through other means.
Thanks for the perspectives.
Dave
Hi Dave,
I can understand your feeling, but I need to say that "storage",
as a topic, is a very big one. People form entire careers around the
topic. So when discussing storage without a specific context,
conversations like this are inevitable.
All the points that have been made in this thread are valid and
important. So I suppose the better thing would be, if you were still
looking for answers, would be to ask the question with a particular
use-case in mind. That would allow people to stay more focused in
their answers.
Cheers!

Ok, maybe one more. I manage a server with CentOS 5.10 that has a raid
10 array with a hot spare. It was well set up by someone else and has
worked very well. It also has a Xen kernel and several VMs, also all
working well.
The age of the OS and accumulated cruft in the application side,
together with the absence of the person who did the original setup,
have me thinking about a new clean install - first on a transitional
box for continuity, then a new config on the current hardware with the
same basic design but more up-to-date; we are now a long way from
version 5.3.
I had seen reference to a much improved raid installation procedure in
version 7. I can now confirm that the process is indeed much simpler
and so I have been able to get on with performance testing in various
scenarios, which was what I wanted to do. My experience has been that
of you want a tutorial on any topic the internet is flooded with the.
But I didn't see one for this topic, so I thought a routine query on
this list would get me a starting point.
That didn't exactly happen. But there's lots of food for thought in
the answers I got and I'll be able to take at least some of that
forward. And if I'm motivated enough may I'LL make the tutorial!
