Seems to me that if ZFS is implemented in its entirety, that multiple array pools will also essentially be implemented, no? At least it would be if you chose to use that file system.

 

In any case, I would really like to have VM snapshots implemented in the GUI in some way. It is such a powerful feature, and has been available in VMware products forever.

 

Thanks for a great product!

Multiple pools have been available for a while now. 6.12 adds the ability to use ZFS for those multiple pools.

 

It's the single volume per drive parity based array that is being proposed to have multiple instances. That style of array will likely always be restricted to single file systems on each member drive, thus the multi drive reliant features of ZFS will never be able to be used in the traditional Unraid parity array.

They said "multiple array pools", meaning something different than what is currently offered. At least that's how it reads to me.

Ah yes, that makes sense!
