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 Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1731735 Title: zfs scrub starts on all pools simultaneously To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1731735/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
