NetBSD from version 6.0 supports its own re-implementation of Linux LVM. Re-implementation is based on a BSD licensed device-mapper driver and uses a port of Linux lvm tools as the userspace part of LVM. There is no need to support RAID5 in LVM because of NetBSD superior RAIDFrame subsystem. NetBSD: ZFS: Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
Note that in addition to the below table, block capabilities can be implemented below the file system layer in Linux (LVM, integritysetup, cryptsetup) or Windows (Volume Shadow Copy Service, SECURITY), etc.
On most LVM setups, only one copy of the LVM head is saved to each PV, which can make the volumes more susceptible to failed disk sectors. This behavior can be overridden using vgconvert --pvmetadatacopies. If the LVM can not read a proper header using the first copy, it will check the end of the volume for a backup header.
The hope was due to Stratis configuration daemon being in userland, it would more quickly reach maturity versus the years of kernel level development of file systems ZFS and Btrfs. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is built upon enterprise-tested components LVM and XFS with over a decade of enterprise deployments and the lessons learned from System Storage ...
The device mapper is a framework provided by the Linux kernel for mapping physical block devices onto higher-level virtual block devices.It forms the foundation of the logical volume manager (LVM), software RAIDs and dm-crypt disk encryption, and offers additional features such as file system snapshots.
zFS – z/OS File System; not to be confused with other file systems named zFS or ZFS. zFS - an IBM research project to develop a distributed, decentralized file system; not to be confused with other file systems named zFS or ZFS. ZFS – a combined file system and logical volume manager designed by Sun Microsystems
However, the ZFS-Linux port of Lustre will be running ZFS's DMU (Data Management Unit) in userspace. [12] MinFS: MinFS is a fuse driver for Amazon S3 compatible object storage server. MinFS [13] lets you mount a remote bucket (from a S3 compatible object store), as if it were a local directory.
As the FSF (Free Software Foundation) claimed that there was a legal incompatibility between the CDDL and the GPL in 2005, Sun's implementation of the ZFS file system couldn't be used as a basis for the development of a module in the Linux kernel, couldn't be merged into the mainline Linux kernel, and Linux distributions generally did not include it as a precompiled kernel module.
