I understand your point, but I don't understand what you're trying to achieve this way? Of course, not everything that you can do you should do (like your target rebooting etc) and of course it helps, once reproducible. The same way, if you have a mirror of USB hard drives, then swap cables and reboot — your mirror gone. But that's not because of ZFS, if you will look more closely... That's why I think that speaking "My $foo crashes therefore it is all crap" is bad idea: either help to fix it or just don't use it, thus fcsk and lost+found are your friends on ext3 with corrupted superblock after yet another Linux kernel panic. :-) JFYI: *all* filesystems crashes and loses their data for time to time. That's what backups are for. Hence if you use your backup quite often, then you can find the problem and report here. That would be very appreciated and helpful. Thanks! -- Kind regards, BM Things, that are stupid at the beginning, rarely ends up wisely. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
