--v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-2 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi. I'm happy to inform that the ZFS file system is now part of the FreeBSD operating system. ZFS is available in the HEAD branch and will be available in FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE as an experimental feature. Commit log: Please welcome ZFS - The last word in file systems. =20 ZFS file system was ported from OpenSolaris operating system. The code in under CDDL license. =20 I'd like to thank all SUN developers that created this great piece of software. =20 Supported by: Wheel LTD (http://www.wheel.pl/) Supported by: The FreeBSD Foundation (http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/) Supported by: Sentex (http://www.sentex.net/) Limitations. Currently ZFS is only compiled as kernel module and is only available for i386 architecture. Amd64 should be available very soon, the other archs will come later, as we implement needed atomic operations. Missing functionality. - We don't have iSCSI target daemon in the tree, so sharing ZVOLs via iSCSI is also not supported at this point. This should be fixed in the future, we may also add support for sharing ZVOLs over ggate. - There is no support for ACLs and extended attributes. - There is no support for booting off of ZFS file system. Other than that, ZFS should be fully-functional. Enjoy! --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
