Hi Eric, Thanks for you reply. In fact, what I expect is the behavior is consistent for the user. In other words, if a user repeats the same steps, he wants the same result. In the given case, The names of 'dir', 'file1' and 'file2' are fixed, the name of corresponding exported dir is fixed, the order of the operations is fixed, too.
Is it determined by the 'salt'? If such result is desired for ZFS, maybe I need to redesign the test case. :-( Thanks, > The standards require that the ordering of a > directory is consistent, > not that entries appear in the order they are added. > Under ZFS, the > rder depends on the hashing algorithm (entry names + > salt).
