Trying some funky experiments, based on hearing about this readonly ZFS in MacOSX, I'm kidding around with creating file based pools and then burning them to a CDROM. When running zpool import, it does find the pool on the CD, but then warns about a read-only device, followed by a core dump.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/LargeFiles > zpool import -o readonly testpool internal error: Read-only file system Abort (core dumped) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/LargeFiles > Does ZFS still write to the zpool when mounted with readonly? If not, why would a readonly device pose a problem? Apart from being gimmicky (Hey, escalator sorting on a CDROM). Now, if I had three DVD burners and some DVD-RWs, I would try a DVD-RAID. :V Thanks. -mg
