ZFS Errors - My Imagination or Not?

[Stux]

@joeschmuck

Is this due to TrueNAS gaining in popularity or people building a sub-standard system, both? I could see it also being due to people just ignoring a problem until it becomes a BIG problem.

And then there is this:

Is iX aware of the discussion about warning users away from ZFS encryption?

So… if you unencrypted zfs send from an encrypted source dataset… and do a concurrent snapshot…, there is a chance that the source pool will show checksum errors? Which might be fixed with a few scrubs and reboots. Gee. That may explain some of those curious unexplained checksum errors we see. (Bug, HW failure, Memory Error… those ones) Maybe we need to start asking if they’re using ZFS Encryption in future. Or maybe the ZFS encryption failure reports need to check if they’re using ECC?

We have also seen a lot of OpenZFS development and bugs have happened (ie block cloning race condition)
