Hey folks, I have a Sun J4400 SAS1 disk array with 24 x 1T drives in it connected to a Sunfire x2250 running 5.8 ( 64 bit ) I used 'arcconf' to create a big RAID60 out of (see below). But then I mount it and it is way too small This should be about 20TB : [root at solexa1 StorMan]# df -h /dev/sdb1 Filesystem...

Hello all We are experimenting with btrfs and we''ve run into some problems. We are running on two Sun Storage J4400 Arrays containing a total of 48 1 TB disks. With 24 disks in the btrfs: # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sd[b-y] WARNING! - Btrfs Btrfs v0.19 IS EXPERIMENTAL WARNING! - see http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org before using adding device /dev/sdc id 2 ... adding device /dev/sdy id 24 fs created label (null) on /dev/sd...

OK folks, I'm back at it again. Instead of taking my J4400 ( 24 x 1T disks) and making a big RAID60 out of it which Linux cannot make a filesystem on, I'm created 4 x RAID6 which each are 3.64T I then do : sfdisk /dev/sd{b,c,d,e} <<EOF ,,8e EOF to make a big LVM partition on each one. But then when I do : pvcreate /dev/sd{b,c,d,e}1 and then...

I''m looking to move our file storage from Windows to Opensolaris/zfs. The windows box will be connected through 10g for iscsi to the storage. The windows box will continue to serve the windows clients and will be hosting approximately 4TB of data. The physical box is a sunfire x4240, single AMD 2435 processor, 16G ram, LSI 3801E HBA, ixgbe 10g card. I''m looking for suggestions

...12.04 on a Sunfire x2250 Hard to get answers I can trust out of vendors :-) I have a Sun RAID card which I am pretty sure is LSI OEM. It is a 3G/s SAS1 with 2 external connectors like the one on the right here : http://www.cablesondemand.com/images/products/CS-SAS1MUKBCM.jpg And I have 2 x Sun J4400 JBOD cabinets each with 24 disks. If I buy a new card that is 6G/s SAS2 with the same connector, can I connect my cabinets to it and have them work? Even if they only work at 3G/s I don't care. I've also hit an issue with the number of logical devices allowed, and am wondering whether th...

I''m setting up a two-node cluster with 1U x86 servers. It needs a small amount of shared storage, with two or four disks. I understand that the J4200 with SAS disks is approved for this use, although I haven''t seen this information in writing. Does anyone have experience with this sort of configuration? I have a few questions. I understand that the J4200 with SATA disks will

I figure this group will know better than any other I have contact with, is 700-800 I/Ops reasonable for a 7200 RPM SATA drive (1 TB Sun badged Seagate ST31000N in a J4400) ? I have a resilver running and am seeing about 700-800 writes/sec. on the hot spare as it resilvers. There is no other I/O activity on this box, as this is a remote replication target for production data. I have a the replication disabled until the resilver completes. Solaris 10U9 zpool version...

...ol online returning ? The system is running 10U9 with (I think) the September 2010 CPU and a couple multipathing / SAS / SATA point patches (for a MPxIO and SATA bug we found). zpool version is 22 zfs version is either 4 or 5 (I forget which). We are moving off of the 3511s and onto a stack of five J4400 with 750 GB SATA drives, but we aren''t there yet :-( P.S. The other zpools on the box are still up and running. The ones that had deviceson the faulted 3511 are degraded but online, the ones that did not have devices on the faulted 3511 are OK. Because of these other zpools we can'...

...or does tweaking zfs_prefetch_disable just trigger some other effect? For this test, setting that flag(disabling prefetch) doesn''t seem to hurt performance (at least for this test scenario.

We are looking at adding to our storage. We would like ~20TB-30 TB. we have ~ 200 nodes (1100 cores) to feed data to using nfs, and we are looking for high reliability, good performance (up to at least 350 MBytes /second over 10 GigE connection) and large capacity. For the X45xx (aka thumper) capacity and performanance seem to be there (we have 3 now) However, for system upgrades , maintenance

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

I have a bunch of sol10U8 boxes with ZFS pools, most all raidz2 8-disk stripe. They''re all supermicro-based with retail LSI cards. I''ve noticed a tendency for things to go a little bonkers during the weekly scrub (they all scrub over the weekend), and that''s when I''ll lose a disk here and there. OK, fine, that''s sort of the point, and they''re

apparently if you don''t order a J4200 with drives, you just get filler sleds that won''t accept a hard drive. (had to look at a parts breakdown on sunsolve to figure this out -- the docs should simply make this clear.) it looks like the sled that will accept a drive is part #570-1182. anyone know how i could order 12 of these?

Dear All, It may be this not the correct mailing list, but I''m having a ZFS issue when a disk is failing. The system is a supermicro motherboard X8DTH-6F in a 4U chassis (SC847E1-R1400LPB) and an external SAS2 JBOD (SC847E16-RJBOD1). It makes a system with a total of 4 backplanes (2x SAS + 2x SAS2) each of them connected to a 4 different HBA (2x LSI 3081E-R (1068 chip) + 2x LSI

While I understand everything at Oracle is "top secret" these days. Does anyone have any insight into a next-gen X4500 / X4540? Does some other Oracle / Sun partner make a comparable system that is fully supported by Oracle / Sun? http://www.oracle.com/us/products/servers-storage/servers/previous-products/index.html What do X4500 / X4540 owners use if they''d like more

To improve the performance of scripts that manipulate zfs snapshots and the zfs snapshot service in perticular there needs to be a way to list all the snapshots for a given object and only the snapshots for that object. There are two RFEs filed that cover this: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6352014 : ''zfs list'' should have an option to only present direct
