I would guess this "enumeration" means "walk"; e.g. doing backup. One of the most-liked features that ZFS offers is snapshots. So I would suggest telling GFS2 users/customers to use LVM snapshot AND making sure GFS2 works well with Linux LVMm snapshot. -- Wendy -- Linux-cluster mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
