Thus, the zfspool which was created is not managed by Linux at all.

It means that by implementing the OpenZFS filesystem using ZoL I am no longer required to update the /etc/fstab file in Linux each time I create a ZFS pool. Download zfs-auto-snapshot1.2.b for Debian 11 from Debian Contrib repository. Tens of thousands of happy customers have a Proxmox subscription.

Also, note that the mount of the zfspool at /zfspool as shown in the diagram above is persistent.

The zfs list command shows that 88.5k of data was written to the mirror for administrative tracking purposes leaving 9.3G out of 20G of total drive space (10GB X 2) as available for the zfspool mirrored drive. Note above that the zfspool is showing up as ONLINE state and both sdb and sdc along with the associated mirror-0 are ONLINE as well. I followed this up by running the df -kh command to have Linux show me the filesystem breakdown in the system by human-readable blocksize. # zpool create zfspool mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdcĪnd checked the status of the ZFS pool I just created using the following zpool status command with -v switch, and then running the zfs list command to indicate the amount of pool space currently available and where it is mounted. Next, I created a ZFS Pool using the two SCSI drives /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc I created earlier into a ZFS mirror-0, using the command: Indicating that the $PATH has been extended to include the location for the zfs commands in the system making these commands recognizable by BASH by default. usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games: /usr/sbin/ In the Terminal and the following was returned: This makes the $PATH change persistent in the system. # adding the path to the zpool command in Linux Therefore, to allow my Linux system to find this command as well as other zfs commands by default, I modified the ~/.bashrc file and added the following line at the bottom of that file before saving it, then restarting the Terminal: Which returned the location to the command as So, I had to add the path to the zfs commands so BASH would recognize them. Step 5: My Debian 10 Buster Linux system was unable to find the zpool command when I started to execute the commands in the Linux Terminal to setup the two SCSI drives as a ZFS mirror pool.
