For what it's worth, we've been using ZFS for our AFS partitions for many years now, and it's been rock solid. It's even saved our butts in a few situations where ZFS recovered far more gracefully than UFS would have. If you're using Solaris, I believe that there is no reason to use anything
other than ZFS at this point.

I have to agree with Brian here - we also use ZFS on thumpers and
am very happy with it - that being said we're also looking for fileserver
alternatives due to Oracle takeover.  I was thinking RHES 6 would work
fine but with the responses I'm seeing might stay with Solaris.

I'm curious, what types of problems have you encountered with
ZFS? We are actually considering using ZFS on some of our fileservers.

What's the tried-and-true production-quality Linux
equivalent?  Anything?  Last I read, nothing.

Barring an equivalent, what Linux setup...

 a) seems most stable
 b) is fsck-less

Even quick grunt responses are appreciated.  Thanks.
