This might be a stupid question, but here goes... Would adding, say, 4 4 or 8gb usb keys as a zil make enough of a difference for writes on an iscsi shared vol? I am finding reads are not too bad (40is mb/s over gige on 2 500gb drives stripped) but writes top out at about 10 and drop a lot lower... If I where to add a couple usb keys for zil, would it make a difference? Thanks. Sent from a

Running a zpool scrub on our production pool is showing a scrub rate of about 400K/s. (When this pool was first set up we saw rates in the MB/s range during a scrub). Both zpool iostat and an iostat -Xn show lots of idle disk times, no above average service times, no abnormally high busy percentages. Load on the box is .59. 8 x 3GHz, 32GB ram, 96 spindles arranged into raidz zdevs on OI 147.

This must be resliver day :) I just had a drive failure. The hot spare kicked in, and access to the pool over NFS was effectively zero for about 45 minutes. Currently the pool is still reslivering, but for some reason I can access the file system now. Resliver speed has been beaten to death I know, but is there a way to avoid this? For example, is more enterprisy hardware less susceptible to

Dear all Sorry if it''s kind of off-topic for the list but after talking to lots of vendors I''m running out of ideas... We are looking for JBOD systems which (1) hold 20+ 3.3" SATA drives (2) are rack mountable (3) have all the nive hot-swap stuff (4) allow 2 hosts to connect via SAS (4+ lines per host) and see all available drives as disks, no RAID volume. In a

Hi All, I''d like to ask about whether there is a method to enforce a certain txg commit frequency on ZFS. I''m doing a large amount of video streaming from a storage pool while also slowly continuously writing a constant volume of data to it (using a normal file descriptor, *not* in O_SYNC). When reading volume goes over a certain threshold (and average pool load over ~50%), ZFS

hi, i have raid1 on zfs with 2 device on pool first device died and boot from second not working... i try to get http://mfsbsd.vx.sk/ flash and load from it with zpool import http://puu.sh/2402E when i load zfs.ko and opensolaris.ko i see this message: Solaris: WARNING: Can''t open objset for zroot/var/crash Solaris: WARNING: Can''t open objset for zroot/var/crash zpool status:
