[Cialug] Writeup soon - ZFS SAN build

[Kulish, Chris]

It's not FreeBSD, but the ZFS support in FreeNAS seems pretty solid.

I'm using 2 of them currently, one as a VTL solution.

Yeah, I investigated it long and hard because the supported hardware
list is
a lot larger on Solaris, but in the end it looks like we'll be forced
into
OpenSolaris.  I've also toyed with the idea of doing it on FreeBSD, but
I'm
not sure how well the ZFS implementation works on FreeBSD.

*slaps forehead*  You're right.  This is because you're using it in a
"commercial" context.  It's free for personal use.  I forgot about
that.
