ZFS as a file system simplifies many aspects of the storage administrator's day-to-day job and solves a lot of problems that administrators face, but it can be confusing. Introducing ZFS on Linux addresses some of these issues and shows you how to resolve them.

This book explains the technical side of ZFS, through planning the hardware list to planning the physical and logical layout of the storage.

Administer ZFS storage, including sharing
