Thanks Freddie. I had looked through the 10.1 release notes and UPDATING for any changes in how ZFS reserves space, but did not note anything that looked relevant. Appreciate the info. It probably isn't super common to run pools so close to capacity like this one is (being used for temporary storage from a failed raidz), but if this is a known change that affects existing pools it would be great to have it in the release notes as it has the potential to break existing pools/filesystems in some cases :). Thanks again, -Mark
