Hallo!

[Asked by a technical managerial new person assembling a recommendation (sorry for my relative ignorance) and apologies for the long English sentence]:

Is ZFS ready today to link a set of dispersed desktop computers (diverse operating systems) into a distributed RAID volume that supports desktops being turned on and off (with a power-down, "close- up" protocol but without a schedule), and assimilates new desktops very easily when they come online in such a manner that It would distribute the network load across all desktops for both reads and writes?

And could, say, such a set-up email the administrator if the array is in danger of losing integrity (due to too many desktops being taken offline), with the performance proviso that the number of machines needed to maintain integrity should scale as more data is added to the volume, and the volume(s) size should grow automatically as more machines are added?

Many thanks
