Hi,
*sigh*, one of the issues we recognized, when we introduced the new cheap/fast file system creation, was that this new model would stress the scalability (or lack thereof) of other parts of the operating system. This is a prime example. I think the notion of an automount option for zfs directories is an excellent one. Solaris does support automount, and it should be possible, by setting the mountpoint property to "legacy", to set up automount tables to achieve what you want now; but it would be nice if zfs had a property to do this for you automatically.
In my mind, somthing like going : zfs set automounter=on|off would then allow it to see, that someone attempted to access the filesystem and then mount the according filesystem, that would allow you to NFS mount <fs>/data and have data/0[1-9] for example automatically mounted on use. Or at least, that's how i'd have thought it'd be a good idea ;) heheh P _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
