Part 2: Designing File Systems (3 marks) You work for the Information Technology Department in your University and you have been asked to build a server to store user data (home directories). The volumes can grow without bounds, so it was felt that the ZFS file system should be used for each volume. The operating system itself need not be on a ZFS volume. All volumes including the operating system should be engineered in such a way to ensure the best data protection is afforded in the event of local disk failure. It is expected that no more than 1 hours worth of data will be lost. The volumes required are as follows:

uni0 with mount point /users/ug& quota of 200G.

uni1 with mount point /users/pg& quota of 200G.

uni2 with mount point /users/deleted& reservation of 100G.

uni3 with mount point /users/staff& reservation of 100G.

uni4 with mount point /users/guest & reservation of 250G.

Given the above your task is as follows define a strategy for how you will ensure the volumes outlined above are provisioned whilst ensuring there data protection. Document this accordingly along with a suitable rationale for your design.
