I am a bit skeptical on the third party script approach.=20

How stable has It been ?=20

I have been using warden with PC-BSD "TrueOS" for testing and I have =
encountered all sorts of problems (not stable when you have two pools of =
disks - can't delete jail=85)=85 Quite interesting approach, but not =
mature enough to be launched in production.=20

I have finally gotten back to the FreeBSD root file system which I am =
using since couple of years now. It is not fancy, It does not provide =
script to ease your pain=85 But you understand what you are doing and It =
does what you tell him to do !!=20

ZFS has introduced a new challenge, but now that I have understood (more =
or less) how It is working, I found It really great!=20
Just trying to figure out the best way to use both Jail + ZFS.=20


But I might re-consider my position=85 Does ezjail comply with the =
latest FreeBSD 9 / 9.1 advances in jail / ZFS management improvement ?=20=



Thanks for your feedback.=20
