Using sparse files for the test configurations had atleast three significant advantages. 1) Actually test sparse files to ensure they work. 2) Drastically reduce required disk space for the regression test suite. This turns out to be fairly important when running the test suite in a virtualized environment. 3) Significantly speed of the test suite. Run time of zconfig.sh dropped from 2m:56s to 1m:00s on my test system, zpios-sanity.sh nows runs in only 0m:26s. |

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
Documentation for building, configuring, and using ZFS can be found at: http://wiki.github.com/behlendorf/zfs/
