#---additional steps:
#Create a folder (or change the above path in /var/run/)
#mkdir /var/run/zfs/
#
#chmod +x /PATH/TO/THIS/SCRIPT.sh
#
#crontab -e
##ZFS Disk failure check
#*   *  *  *  *  /PATH/TO/THIS/SCRIPT.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
#
#---be sure that the user who executes the script can access the folder /var/run for PID file creation
#---or just comment it out, if you don't want to crate a PID file
#---zpool should obviously also be accessible for this user :)
