it's pretty simple, if i understand it correctly. When you add some blocks
to zfs...

then take a snapshot
(snapshot of x)
the disk has the space of the x's and the snapshot does't take up any space
yet
then you add more to the drive
and maybe take another snapshot
dude, i just explained it =)
ok...let me see if i can do better...
if you have a file that's 1 gb , in zfs you have those blocks added. on a
normal filesystem when you edit the file or add to it, it will erase the old
file and add a new one over it (more or less).
on zfs, you have the blocks
If you understand how copy on write works and how snapshots work then the
concept of the extra space should make perfect since. If you want a
mathmatic formula for how to figure it out i would have to say that it would
be based on how DIFFERENT the data is between snapshots AND how MUCH data it
i'm not sure if it applies to your situation, but when i FIRST starting
using ZFS on freebsd, i noticed a similar error, where a filesystem would be

Why not just do simple mirrored vdevs? or use cheaper 1tb
While it is true that you can not add a single device to a raidz vdev, you
can easily add more vdevs, and this is by far the best way to grow because
each vdev adds much speed to the array. Raidz is more advanced than raid5,
the fact that your card doesn't do the raid calculations is not a

not to use ide, i'm just saying you might have to research your cf cards if
you do. not all ide-cf will boot.

From what i understand, and from everything i've read by following threads
here, there are ways to do it but there is not a standardized tool yet, and
it's complicated and on a per-case basis but people who pay for support have
recovered pools.
i'm sure they are working on it, and i would imagine
i think you need to give more information about your setup

I've been running ZFS on FreeBSD and i've had no problems. ZFS is still
considered experimental in FreeBSD but it's working wonderfully. I have 3
raidz1 vdevs with 4 1tb drives each and i've had several power outages and
i've yanked out disks just to see what would happenit's been fine. I
I don't have an answer to your question exactly because i'm a noob and i'm
not using mac but i can say that on FreeBSD which i'm using atm there is a
method to name devices ahead of time so if the drive letters change you
avoid this exact problem. I'm sure opensolaris and mac have something
sometimes the disk will be busy just from being in the directory or if
something is trying to connect to it.
Again, i'm no expert so i'm going to refrain from commenting on your issue
further.
