So....ZFS-Fuse doesn't cut it and Native ZFS support not going to happen because of licensing issues then what about HP advfs....
For those that don't know advfs, its very similar to ZFS and if you ask me it rocks!!! (and having used ZFS and advfs I think advfs was better!). I have been looking for advfs on linux for years after using it with Digital UNIX(Tru64) back in the 90's...... HP released advfs HP-UX & Tru64 source code and documentation (under GPL) just needs to be ported to linux....But looks like its not being worked on at the moment coz everyone is working on btrfs.....but since btrfs is likely to be released anytime soon - someone could port the Tru64 Advfs to linux.... If someone reading this decides to take on the challenge of porting advfs it would be better to start with the Tru64 src rather than the HP- UX. It appears when HP were porting advfs to HP-UX they made some design decisions - like not including clones (snapshots) with first version, and they were only at Beta stage before the canned the project. -- Add native ZFS to Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202952 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
