ZFS Quick Demo
Want to see ZFS in a 5 minute demo?

The following demo by Dan Price will show you some of the basics in using ZFS. This video will take you through using some ZFS commands with regard to:

  • createing a storage pool without having to format, fdisk, or make slices on the disk

  • creating filesystems that share the same storage pool

  • On the fly unmount and mount

  • creating a large sample file and watch the i/o going through that file

  • adding more disk to the storage pool, and immediately seeing how current write activity starts using the newly added disk

  • limiting a user or group of users usage of a filesystem through quotas

  • usage of compression on a storage pool

  • creating a snapshot and how to access

  • using a shell script to create a 100 filesystems in 20 seconds
