zfs-linux for Debian
====================

1. Feature flags are enabled by default.
----------------------------------------

This means that ZoL will now create pools in a way that is
incompatible with Solaris. If you need Solaris compatibility,
then create pools like this:

  # zpool create -o version=28 tank ...

ZoL remains compatible with all other ZFS implementations derived
from Illumos.

2. Use zfs-initramfs with caution.
----------------------------------

Debian Installer's root installation support is being worked on,
and zfs-initramfs is included here but still needs to be tested
in detail. Since faulty operation on filesystem can lead to major
loss of data, please use zfs-initramfs with caution.

3. Per-zpool config for the periodic-{scrub,trim} cron jobs is supported.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Starting with 2.0.3-3, the auto-scrub and auto-trim cron jobs will use the
 "org.debian:periodic-{scrub,trim}" user properties on the pool's root dataset
 to determine if they should do anything; accepted values are:

	* "auto"    ‒ same as unset, use default checks
	* "enable"  ‒ always scrub/trim automatically
	* "disable" ‒ never scrub/trim automatically

 [ Periodic Scrubbing ]

 Scrubbing storage pool data is a routine maintenance operation that check all
 data against known checksums, and fix early problems like bit riots. This
 operation is scheduled with low priority in the background, and usually does
 not have big impact on performance when the pool is not heavily utilized.

 If you would like to scrub all pools periodically, no operation is required
 as periodic scrub is already the default behavior. Or if you want to
 make it explicit for a zpool named "tank":

  # zfs set org.debian:periodic-scrub=auto tank

 By default scrub jobs are scheduled on every first Sunday of month.

 [ Periodic Trimming ]

 Some SSD devices require proper scheduling of TRIM commands to maintain best
 performance. Currently the auto-trim will only trim if the zpool consists of
 /only/ NVMe drives, since some SATA 2 and SATA 3.0 SSDs will hang or crash
 during large TRIMs (See #983086). If your zpools with SATA SSDs had no
 problems trimming before, you will need to run the following command to
 restore the previous behaviour (always trim a pool):

  # zfs set org.debian:periodic-trim=enable sata-pool

 TRIM jobs are scheduled on every first Sunday of month by default.
