Terry,
Yes. AVS is pretty expensive. If ZFS did this out of the box it would be a huge
differentiator. I know ZFS does snapshots today, but if we could extend this
functionality to work across distance then we would have something that could
compete with expensive solutions from EMC, HP, IBM, NetApp, etc. And to do it
with open source software ... even better.
AVS is already open-sourced. Not sure as to the free part but given the
code is out there ...
