Hello there, old friend.
In 2010 I left my job as a Solaris admin. Sixteen years later Iโm back at a zonecfg prompt, and it feels like coming home.
The muscle memory never left. OmniOS โbloodyโ on ZFS, a fresh zone with its own network stack, and my old companion DTrace, quietly watching every exec inside the zone from the global zone.
Some things you never really leave behind. ๐
In this Q3 2026 FreeBSD Journal article, Sven Rรผdiger explores how Sylve, a browser-based management interface for FreeBSD, can simplify home lab management by unifying virtual machines, jails, and ZFS storage.

Three Small Computers, One Big Promise

What follows is the logical next step for anyone who has ever stared at a single server and wondered what would happen if it simply stopped. I built a three-node

#ZFS folks:
I have a dataset.
When I do zfs list -t snapshot -o space {dataset}, I get a list of a small number of snapshots that add up to about 50G in their USED column.
When I do zfs list -o space {dataset}, it says 1.45T in the USEDSNAP column.
How do I find out which snapshots are actually using this space?
Hey ZFS folks: If I am running PostgreSQL 18, can I use an 8k recordsize on the dataset? What about the WAL directory? Does that stay in a separate dataset with a different recordsize or does it all go together?
Thanks so much!
Please boost for visiblity!
