Because I have chosen debunking " can never keep up with the Linux kernel" as my particular hill to die on, here's the support for Linux 7.0, which doesn't exist yet. Release candidate is scheduled next weekend; GA in mid-April.

I doubt it will move the needle, but personal special interests are often like that... 😅

rsync -avhHPx --delete source/dir destdir/

Me: Oh no! The correct source was source/ - not source/dir - and now all of destdir's contents (4.6 TB) have been deleted!
Me, two seconds later: Oh well. zfs rollback datapool/dataset@lastSnap

rsync -avhHPx --delete source/ destdir/

Thank you, ZFS.

To be honest I wouldn't work with so much data without doing a first dry-run round of rsync with the -n option. Can't live with this option anymore, especially when using --delete.
Glad you could revert easily the mistake.

OpenZFS needs your help!

We have a backlog of great new features in review that need feedback for not only code correctness but also testing by users, spell checking, and clarification of documentation.

Please take a moment to help make better:

@9to5linux As excited as I am about the attention, I feel like it’s irresponsible to advertise ZFS dedup without saying “don’t use dedup” https://despairlabs.com/blog/posts/2024-10-27-openzfs-dedup-is-good-dont-use-it/

@9to5linux@floss.social avatar 9to5linux , to random

2.3 is now available for public testing with support for kernel 6.11, RAIDZ expansion, fast dedup, support for long file and directory names, and more https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-2.3.0-rc1
