Will ZFS be more stable on its native OS or in userland on Linux? It could be stable on both but I suspect a risk averse decision maker would use ZFS on a Solaris and one of the more well-supported filesystems for Linux... Right now...I think I would not have much of a choice if you are talking about stability. ZFS will panic the Solaris kernel if it cannot write...but on Linux, it would merely cause the ZFS userspace daemon to crash and not bring the whole system down. And what happens then? Are all ZFS vnodes then gone *or* is the write which couldn't be done silently discarded? The nice thing about the panic is that the application is stopped in its track and knows that it needs to start recovering. If you kill the ZFS daemon and restart it, data *is* lost but will the application find out. It seems that you may just have lost one of the nice properties of ZFS. Not that I think the system should panic; the file in question should be marked bad and further I/O should fail with EIO as should fsync().
