Hey Reg

Lucas and Jude are ZFS Authors. On FreeBSD, but we have patches with their name in illumos these days.

In general the book applies to both ZFS version, excluding things like draid. But We don't want divergence. The Plan to migrate to that ZFS repo is still going.

The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System
McKusick, Neville-Neil & Watson

Chapter 10: The Zettabyte Filesystem

It's only 26 pages, but it's the only description of the internals of ZFS I've 
been able to find.

The FreeBSD Mastery books on ZFS by Lucas and Jude provide more information 
about the commands and the implications of various settings.

McKusick said that finding information about ZFS outside of the source was 
difficult. Lucas and Jude was the only other material in print he knew of. I'm 
hoping he might decide to write a book about it with some of the developers of 
ZFS as coauthors.

Perhaps you are talking about the FreeBSD Handbook rather than the
software implementation.  I am not encountering any issues with the OI
manual pages or the software.  The OI Wiki is another story
altogether.

The OI Handbook is making good progress towards the quality of
FreeBSD's Handbook.
PRs are easy and welcome.
