Unfortunately for ZFS, snapshot support is pretty commonly available (e.g., in Linux's LVM - and IIRC BSD's as well - if you're looking at open-source solutions) so anyone who actually found this feature important has had access to it for quite a while already. And my original comment which you quoted still obtains as far as typical consumers are concerned. - bill This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
