The video from our last Silicon Valley Open Solaris User Group is online, in

Hi all.
I do have some questions concerning the move away from UFS/SVM to ZFS.
Using SVM mirror quite intensivly in the past we many times broke up

Not yet, but the timeout on the naming proposal expired over the weekend, so
hopefully there will be a community within a few days.
You can find the naming discussion archived on opensolaris.org:
