Well, I hadn't previously thought about the fact that the zpool create command creates both a pool *and a filesystem*. So the fact that casesensitivity is a filesystem property meant to me that it couldn't be used on the zpool command. I wouldn't have been looking at the man page to find the -O switch, because it's obvious from the structure that it won't be there -- zpool manipulates pools, zfs manipulates filesystems. So I'm not completely sure "non-intuitive" is how I'd describe it; but it's off in a weird corner I hadn't even noticed existed. So I've learned something; I wonder if I'll remember it long enough to do any good? -- David Dyer-Bennet, d...@dd-b.net; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
