In the last episode (Jan 22), Chris Stankevitz said: > Please identify any incorrect statements: > > 1. Filesystems, not pools, can be mounted > > 2. "zpool create foo /dev/bar" makes new pool called foo > > 3. (2) does not create a file system "zpool create" does create a filesystem. The manpage doesn't say so explicitly, but does document the -O flag, which only makes sense if a filessytem is created to apply the properties to: -O file-system-property=value [-O file-system-property=value] ... Sets the given file system properties in the root file system of the pool. See zfs(8) Properties for a list of valid prop- erties that can be set. > 4. After (2), /foo is mounted and ready for writing > > 5. (4) violates (1) -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
