ZFS doesn't have a fsck. (Its "scrub" operation only validates the block checksums, not the consistency of the on-disk data structure.) In this cranky old sysadmin's opinion, that indicates an unacceptable level of hubris among the ZFS developers, and renders the filesystem unfit for production use.
