btrfs has online scrubbing.

- midas007 13y agoOracle acquired Sun, so they could have solved it by just choose another license moving forward. One gotcha is the ZFS (Solaris core) team vehemently resisted anything GPL-compatible. Something like a BSD license would make the most commercial sense. Instead, Oracle has a consistent pattern of losing community goodwill that loses customer interest and pushes developers to fork.
