Does SUN really say this about ZFS?  Is this acceptable in a
production environment?  What if one of your mirrored disk
fails and in the "degraded" environment (before you have had
a chance to replace the bad disk) ZFS discovers that a write
fails?  Why can't it find an alternative block to write to?
