“Down Periscope”
“Spaceballs” -

Must have been an epic trip.

Working on a ZFS disaster.

Snorkeling with every "flavor of penguin" (Linux distro) I can find because exploring is FUN!

hating ZFS more and more each day, lol

I've quickly discovered there is a fervent populus of ZFS defenders and apologists. It reminds me of the RAID-5 knife fights ....err I mean discussions
You sure do know how to pick a nemesis, SAM

More they picked one with me. I've been a storage and filesystem expert since before ZFS released and the ZFS team worked on the original SAM-SD design with me. The Cult of ZFS people literally picked a fight with me and the ZFS team ten years after this stuff was old hat, lol.

Also, today is yet another day of slowly and expensively helping a company recover both their ProxMox and TrueNAS deployments that were done on ZFS and all was lost and no vendor had any means of recovering anything.
-
reimaging malware infested laptops

Did they back up their PRoxMox to their TruNAS and they both went under?

Or the ghost story of IT deployments.
ProxMox with main storage on TruNAS... ooooooOOOOOOo scary!

...whether or not there is malware, users are NASTY. That's why I keep nitrile gloves and isopropyl alcohol on my desk. And I make a point of putting the gloves on in front of the user before anything.

NO! Worse. TrueNAS on top of ProxMox. So ZFS on top of ZFS!!
All the ZFS cultists are so ready to say why you can't do ZFS on top of hardware RAID to try to discredit hardware RAID (when in reality, it is ZFS that is unstable) that they ignore that doing it on top of ANY other system would have the exact same results. So they miss that ZFS on top of ZFS is far, far worse than ZFS on top of something stable.
So the level of disaster is incredible. All teh complexity, all the fragility of ZFS (TWICE) and no ZFS advantages because it is stripped away by the encapsulation of the ZFS by the other ZFS system.
