[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1731735] Re: zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously
Yes, I'm using ZFS on laptop to get benefits of snapshotting and zfs send/receive, apart from that the machine does not do heavy IO :) Thanks for advice, definitely it is not a intended use scenario. May some changes in documentation will help to provide better clarity. Or may be even informational message while creating second pool on a same disk. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1731735 Title: zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: # Environment Description:Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release:16.04 Linux 4.10.0-38-generic-tuxonice #42~ppa1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 30 20:21:41 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux zfsutils-linux 0.6.5.6-0ubuntu18 amd64 # Current behaviour `/usr/lib/zfs-linux/scrub` starts `zfs scrub` on all pools at the same time.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1731735] Re: zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously
I'm using it on laptop. One pool holds OS + home directories and other more-or-less fast changing stuff. Another one holds only backups and VM images. First reason was to try deduplication on VM dataset without affecting main pool. Second reason was to have two big partitions to do experiments - so if necessary one pool can be moved to external HDD, partition can be formatted and used as Windows or any other way. Having one single big partition spanning whole disk proved to decrease flexibility in trying new versions of OS/other OSes and etc. >From your message I hear that for NAS/storage systems this is not recommended >scenario. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1731735 Title: zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: # Environment Description:Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Release:16.04 Linux 4.10.0-38-generic-tuxonice #42~ppa1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 30 20:21:41 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux zfsutils-linux 0.6.5.6-0ubuntu18 amd64 # Current behaviour `/usr/lib/zfs-linux/scrub` starts `zfs scrub` on all pools at the same time.
