ZFS in the trenches

Ben Rockwood is awesome.  If you haven’t had a chance to check out his blog, its a must read for any Solaris Admin.

He gave a presentation at the Open Storage Summit about ZFS.  (Video Here) Its worth the read / view   for some indepth ZFS concepts.

Joerg assisted in turning some of this into plain English so the rest of us can understand.

Kudos to Ben for giving props to Matty in the pdf!

Agreed . . . Ben is the man!

I have been following his blog for years and have implemented a lot of his tips into my environment. Sometimes he his rants get a little out of hand, but there is always a good nugget to be found in those rants.

Hey Craig,

Yeah, Ben is definitely the man. I got the privilege of having dinner with him a couple of times in Palo Alto, and I was amazed at how mellow and down to earth the guy is. He is also wicked smart, and we are lucky to have him in the storage and *NIX communities.
