Was wondering if anyone can see any issues with the ARC in the following output? bash-3.00# ./arc_summary.pl System Memory: Physical RAM: 6023 MB Free Memory : 784 MB LotsFree: 90 MB ZFS Tunables (/etc/system): ARC Size: Current Size: 1159 MB (arcsize) Target Size (Adaptive): 2106 MB (c) Min Size (Hard Limit): 624 MB (zfs_arc_min) Max Size (Hard Limit): 4999 MB (zfs_arc_max) ARC Size

Would someone "in the know" be willing to write up (preferably blog) definitive definitions/explanations of all the arcstats provided via kstat? I''m struggling with proper interpretation of certain values, namely "p", "memory_throttle_count", and the mru/mfu+ghost hit vs demand/prefetch hit counters. I think I''ve got it figured out, but

Hi all, I have exchanged my Dell R610 in favor of a Sun Fire 4170 M2 which has 32 GB RAM installed. I am running Sol11Expr on this host and I use it to primarily serve Netatalk AFP shares. From day one, I have noticed that the amount of free RAM decereased and along with that decrease the overall performance of ZFS decreased as well. Now, since I am still quite a Solaris newbie, I seem to

I would appreciate if somebody can clarify a few points. I am doing some random WRITES (100% writes, 100% random) testing and observe that ARC grows way beyond the "hard" limit during the test. The hard limit is set 512 MB via /etc/system and I see the size going up to 1 GB - how come is it happening? mdb''s ::memstat reports 1.5 GB used - does this include ARC as well or is

Pre-fletching on the file and device level has been disabled yielding good results so far. We''ve lowered the number of concurrent ios from 35 to 1 causing the service times to go even lower (1 -> 8ms) but inflating actv (.4 -> 2ms). I''ve followed your recommendation in setting primarycache to metadata. I''ll have to check with our tester in the morning if it made

I''m running into a issue where there seems to be a high number of read iops hitting disks and physical free memory is fluctuating between 200MB -> 450MB out of 16GB total. We have the l2arc configured on a 32GB Intel X25-E ssd and slog on another32GB X25-E ssd. According to our tester, Oracle writes are extremely slow (high latency). Below is a snippet of iostat: r/s w/s

Hi, Please forgive me if my searching-fu has failed me in this case, but I''ve been unable to find any information on how people are going about monitoring and alerting regarding memory usage on Solaris hosts using ZFS. The problem is not that the ZFS ARC is using up the memory, but that the script Nagios is using to check memory usage simply sees, say 96% RAM used, and alerts. The

Opensolaris this ain''t, but zfs-related nevertheless. ----- Forwarded message from Josh Paetzel <josh at ixsystems.com> ----- From: Josh Paetzel <josh at ixsystems.com> Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:01:24 -0700 To: freenas-announce at lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Freenas-announce] FreeNAS 8.2.0-RC1 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; FreeBSD amd64; rv:12.0) Gecko/20120506
