> A new ticket has been opened for OpenZFS as well in proposing to add warnings against using ZFS native encryption and the send/receive support in production environments.
"Among experienced zfs users and developers, it's conventional wisdom that zfs native encryption is not suitable for production usage, particularly when combined with snapshotting and zfs send/recv. There is a long standing data corruption issue with many firsthand user reports...Additionally, if you join #zfs or #zfsonlinux on freenode and mention that you're having an issue with zfs native encryption, you'll be met with advice from developers that zfs native encryption is simply not reliable."
From Phoronix comments, a suggestion on implementation:
> It should be something like that:
ERROR: RAID 5/6 support has know problems and shouldn't be used on production systems.
If you really want to use it please type "Enable dangerous RAID5/6 support" or add argument "--enable-dangerous-raid56-support" to this command
- nubinetwork 3y agoWhy are they still using freenode? Everyone jumped ship like 2 or so years ago?
- transpute 3y agoHmm, good question.
