My testing went well. I was able to mount ZeroFS as NFS and write a 100M file to the mount point. The file persists after I deleted ZeroFS cache.
My plan is to use it for backup process. If we don't have such tool, we would need to prepare a large Filesystem stage area, then run rclone to upload to cloud space. With this tool, I can mount it on Backup server, rsync file server a large Filesystem to the ZeroFS mount point, eliminating stage area.
Will ZeroFS support large Filesystem size about 800GB?
Perhaps your cpu is too old? The prebuilt binaries require newer CPUs but you can build your own.
> Will ZeroFS support large Filesystem size about 800GB?
Absolutely, and much, much more than that.
Millions of files, Interrupted transfers, Backup Server Reboots, Long-term operation?
Any S3 compliant service.
> Does it support any sort of storage tiering ?
Yes, it has a local cache that's populated on reads, but no writeback cache yet.
Yes, that should work fine!
