I'm about to provision a 1U server for my little operation. I had been leaning toward Nexenta OS for its ZFS support, but because it's OpenSolaris under the hood, it's a little wonky (to me). It occurred to me that Darwin might be viable. Is anyone using open-source Darwin in a server environment? How is it working out? Are you able to use ZFS RAID-Z storage? Can you boot from ZFS? Although NexentaOS supports booting from ZFS, I don't think you can boot from a RAID-Z pool. I only have 4 drives to work with, and I'd like to put them all in a RAID-Z pool. Is it possible to boot from a read-only flash drive in Darwin, and put most of the OS onto a RAID-Z pool? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
