Hi,
We are currently using NetApp file clone option to clone multiple VMs on our FS.
ZFS dedup feature is great storage space wise but when we need to clone allot
of VMs it just takes allot of time.
Is there a way (or a planned way) to clone a file without going through the
process of actually copying the blocks, but just duplicating its meta data like
NetApp does?
I don't know about file cloning but why not put each VM on top of a zvol
- then you can clone a zvol. ?
