Editing File system (section)

====Solaris====
[[Solaris (operating system)|Solaris]] in earlier releases defaulted to (non-journaled or non-logging) [[Unix File System|UFS]] for bootable and supplementary file systems. Solaris defaulted to, supported, and extended UFS.

Support for other file systems and significant enhancements were added over time, including [[Veritas Software]] Corp. (journaling) [[VxFS]], Sun Microsystems (clustering) [[QFS]], Sun Microsystems (journaling) UFS, and Sun Microsystems (open source, poolable, 128 bit compressible, and error-correcting) [[ZFS]].

Kernel extensions were added to Solaris to allow for bootable Veritas [[VxFS]] operation. Logging or [[Journaling file system|journaling]] was added to UFS in Sun's [[Solaris 7]]. Releases of [[Solaris 10]], Solaris Express, [[OpenSolaris]], and other open source variants of the Solaris operating system later supported bootable [[ZFS]].

[[Logical Volume Management]] allows for spanning a file system across multiple devices for the purpose of adding redundancy, capacity, and/or throughput. Legacy environments in Solaris may use [[Solaris Volume Manager]] (formerly known as [[Solstice DiskSuite]]). Multiple operating systems (including Solaris) may use [[Veritas Volume Manager]]. Modern Solaris based operating systems eclipse the need for volume management through leveraging virtual storage pools in [[ZFS]].
