]]> Comment on Some notes on Nexenta/ZFS by Urban http://blog.urbansedlar.com/archives/11284/comment-page-1#comment-5184 Urban Sun, 15 Jan 2012 15:58:00 +0000 http://blog.urbansedlar.com/?p=11284#comment-5184 Hey, thanks for your elaborate comment. Regarding SMB, I think Samba is a pretty decent workaround as well; as far as I can tell, all you lose is "previous versions". About zfs send: my understanding is that only the diff between two snaps is sent, while older snaps are left intact (I did in fact check that). Let's say I have a weekly snapshot schedule and only want to keep 5 snaps. After a snap, I also send the incremental diff to the USB drive. In week 5, I still have two identical filesystems. However, in week 6 I make snap6 and destroy snap1; then I send delta (-i) between snap5 and snap6 to external drive. Now drive 1 has snaps 2-6 and drive 2 has snaps 1-6. This is not what I want, since drive 2 grows in size compared to drive 1.  Regarding Vbox: thanks for the tip, I'll definitely try the all-in-one solution. Hey, thanks for your elaborate comment.

Currently: Each ZFS dataset is completely independant from others. You can set a mountpoint to mount the logically below others. But you cannot SMB browse between because they cannot inherit properties. Workaround: use one share about zfs send the target does not increase. its always an exact copy of the source including all volumes and snaps. Transfers are based on modified data blocks so its more efficient than file based methods About Virtialbox Why do you try to virtualize on top of OS when you need performance. Use a barebone virtualizer like ESXi instead and virtualize all OS's including a ZFS NAS/SAN look at napp-it all-in-one about SMB
