Hi Peter, 

Common sense is probably not very useful when it comes to 
software patents. The level of scrutiny applied varies wildly depending 
on a number of obvious factors ( e.g. the high profile, and 
contested nature of a claim). 

As to your specific question, all the relevant patents, PTO and court 
filings are posted here:

Best wishes,

Subject: [zfs-code] What is patented in ZFS? 

Folks, 

I understand that Sun/Oracle has a number of patents on ZFS. I am wondering 
what are their major patents.
