Sanboot on ZFS
I have an idea about combining ZFS COW/clone/snapshot natural and SANboot. The ZVOL target should not be created until we hit the menu.

This is my prototype demo and code: http://youtu.be/gu_5dCHnfx8

RE: Sanboot on ZFS
Cool concept! Could you share your configuration and information on how you did this? Especially the backend scripts dealing with setting up the zfs volumes?

RE: Sanboot on ZFS
My code : https://github.com/chenpc/zanboot

I am moving the code to Nexenta Plugin

I don't know the Jentu's file system.

But using ZFS will save the RAM usage of a clone image.

Every clone of image share the same ARC cache.

If you clone 100 copies of a 40G image, it just take one copy of RAM.
