WRT IPS, deployment into large enterprise SMP servers should not require a reboot to effect a file system update. The pkg team should also think about shared multi platform system architectures.
Well, clearly ZFS cannot be updated on a live system :-); the same is likely true for UFS. Do you really distribute fixes to SAMFS that
require the filesystems to be unmounted, but don't require a reboot?
Yes.  We really do that, and we really don't require a reboot :)

So, going back to Todd's email from July 2:
What changes do you deliver to QAMFS that *don't* require a reboot, and which ones do? Do they ever?

We don't require a reboot for upgrade or install.

So there are no kernel modules involved? No programs that are ever changed that could stop working if not rebooted?

Cheers,
