ZFS is an advanced file system designed to solve major problems found in previous storage subsystem software.

Originally developed at Sun(TM), ongoing open source ZFS development has moved to the http://openzfs.org[OpenZFS Project].

ZFS has three major design goals:


[[zfs-zpool-create]]
=== Creating and Destroying Storage Pools

Creating a ZFS storage pool requires permanent decisions, as the pool structure cannot change after creation.
The most important decision is which types of vdevs to group the physical disks into. 
See the list of <<zfs-term-vdev,vdev types>> for details about the possible options.
After creating the pool, most vdev types do not allow adding disks to the vdev.

[[zfs-zpool-attach]]
=== Adding and Removing Devices

Two ways exist for adding disks to a pool: attaching a disk to an existing vdev with `zpool attach`, or adding vdevs to the pool with `zpool add`.
Some <<zfs-term-vdev,vdev types>> allow adding disks to the vdev after creation.

A pool created with a single disk lacks redundancy.
