Hi While we are on the topic, I had a brief but happy encounter with ZFS while dump was broken on UFS2. Is there any indication as to when this would be suitable for a production environment? Some of the tools build in to ZFS are very useful... Regards -- David Peall :: IT Manager e-Schools' Network :: http://www.esn.org.za/ <http://www.esn.org.za/> Phone +27 (021) 674-9140
