Maybe I'm just tired this morning but I wish this article could just get to the point. I feel like I'm reading a mystery novel but I am never going to make it to the end and find out who did it.
- 4ad 14y agoThis article explains in-depth why ZFS doesn't need a fsck tool. It's very much to the point in its entirety. I'm sorry content-free articles posted here lately have diluted your expectations.
- spikels 14y agoI agree this article in not content free but all these points could be made in many fewer and less convoluted words. And they buried the real news (at least to me) that the hardware is lying to the OS. Did not mean to offend.
- andrewflnr 14y agoIt's in the first sentence of the fourth paragraph.
- MereInterest 14y agoIt's right there in the title. ZFS does not need a fsck tool. That is the point. All the rest of it is telling you why.
- inopinatus 14y agotl;dr version: ZFS doesn't need fsck because it has virtual log-structured metadata and can therefore always recover itself.
