New Revision: 249169
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/249169

Log:
  Document that, although ZFS pool feature flags are available,
  8.4-RC1 and later ZFS pool version defaults to version 28 to
  prevent problems with upgrading to FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE.
  
  Feature flags can be enabled by explicitly running:
  
  	zpool upgrade <pool>
