From 5ee220ba5c825263ce6f77106914bda35e60ef06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomohiro Kusumi Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2018 02:31:34 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] Document allowed pool names PR #7208 was a patch to allow non-reserved pool names which begin with mirror, raidz, spare (but do not equal), however we'd rather document it in the man page for compatibility with other OpenZFS implementations, to avoid pool names that may not work on non-Linux platforms.
