Having it supported in multiple operating systems would put more pressure on third-party vendors (with disk management tools, backup systems, and the like) to support it and to write applications that are designed with ZFS in mind. All of that would be good for OpenSolaris. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
