**Caution**: **[GRUB doesn't support all pool features](http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=48885) from ZFS on Linux 0.7 or higher.** If you install ZFS from backports or use Proxmox, add `-o feature@large_dnode=disabled` to the next command. Otherwise, GRUB will not find the ZFS pool.

* The use of `ashift=12` is recommended here because many drives today have 4KiB (or larger) physical sectors, even though they present 512B logical sectors. Also, a future replacement drive may have 4KiB physical sectors (in which case `ashift=12` is desirable) or 4KiB logical sectors (in which case `ashift=12` is required).
|
||||
* GRUB does not support all of the zpool features. See `spa_feature_names` in [grub-core/fs/zfs/zfs.c](http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/tree/grub-core/fs/zfs/zfs.c#n276). This step creates a separate boot pool for `/boot` with the features limited to only those that GRUB supports, allowing the root pool to use any/all features. Note that GRUB opens the pool read-only, so all read-only compatible features are "supported" by GRUB.
|
||||
* Setting `-O acltype=posixacl` enables POSIX ACLs globally. If you do not want this, remove that option, but later add `-o acltype=posixacl` (note: lowercase "o") to the `zfs create` for `/var/log`, as [journald requires ACLs](https://askubuntu.com/questions/970886/journalctl-says-failed-to-search-journal-acl-operation-not-supported)
|
||||
* Setting `normalization=formD` eliminates some corner cases relating to UTF-8 filename normalization. It also implies `utf8only=on`, which means that only UTF-8 filenames are allowed. If you care to support non-UTF-8 filenames, do not use this option. For a discussion of why requiring UTF-8 filenames may be a bad idea, see [The problems with enforced UTF-8 only filenames](http://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/linux/ForcedUTF8Filenames).
|
||||
* Setting `relatime=on` is a middle ground between classic POSIX `atime` behavior (with its significant performance impact) and `atime=off` (which provides the best performance by completely disabling atime updates). Since Linux 2.6.30, `relatime` has been the default for other filesystems. See [RedHat's documentation](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/html/power_management_guide/relatime) for further information.
