Yes. I don't intended to argue about that. For that systemd is perfect and I like using it too. I mean such problems as a hanging boot in an lxc-container where I've once got only a (not a lot on google about that at this time) re

Yes. Shell scripts are it's own unique kind of hell. I'm really speaking on my behalf here. I can read shell good enough to follow and debug issues in it. However digging into internals of systemd and its interactions with dbus an

Wow! Thanks for your reply. I've experienced some minor issues with severe broken disks where the SPL layer discards the disk but the zpool is still online. It's not a major issue and I've yet to encounter the issue again I&#

I'm not the op but I'm running ZoL on a small cluster with 200 HDDs and 50 machines. I've also tested btrfs. Why is ZFS better (IMHO): + Tooling. The zpool and zfs commands are clear, easy to use and well documented. btrfs e.

Sorry if I was unclear. I stumbled upon a few issues running ZFS on Linux that are known and on the development roadmap. Things like ARC integration and better failure handling in case of disk problems. I don't run anything big on Free

35$ are about 26€ - it's definitely possible in Germany. You can buy 1kg oatmeal for 1€, 1kg yoghurt for 1.50€. 2kg whole-grain bread for 3€, 2kg potatoes or pasta or rice for 2€, 10 eggs for 1€, Then you have plenty of possibilities
