Hi, I posted in the Solaris install forum as well about the fileserver I''m building for media files but wanted to ask more specific questions about zfs here. The setup is 8x500GB SATAII drives to start and down the road another 4x750 SATAII drives, the machine will mostly be doing reads and streaming data over GigaE. -I''m under the impression that ZFS+(ZFS2) is similar to RAID6, so for the initial 8x500GB two drives would be sucked into parity so I''d have a 3TB...

Is anyone having issues with these particular cards (especially the newer SATAII variant) and the stock CentOS kernels? Are they well supported enough such that a "yum update" suffices to keep them synced up with patches without having to hand edit the kernel or build special modules from 3Ware each time? Cheers,

...currently use Linux + Cinelerra for editing uncompressed video (and a few dual G5 macs running Final Cut Pro). Current editing stations are getting a bit long in the tooth so I've been mulling over a mass upgrade. 8-) These cards are interesting to me because they are PCI-X and support 4 SATAII drives per multilane/infiniband connector for a total of 16 drives. Multilane is interesting to me because the editor can use a SFF system (tiny desktop footprint) with 1M multilane cables talking to the pile of disks in an external enclosure stashed out of the way with its own redundant power...

...RAID10 with the same amount of storage. Will that perform much better? In general we are planning to move away from RAID5 toward RAID10. We also have on order an external IBM array (don't have the exact name on hand but model number was 3000) with 12 drive bays. We ordered it with just 4 x SATAII drives, and were going to put it on a different system as a RAID10. These are just 7200 RPM drives - the goal was cheaper storage because the SAS drives are about twice as much per drive, and it is only a 300G drive versus the 1T SATA2 drives. IIRC the SATA2 drives are about $200 each and the SA...

...he application runs perfectly again. Conclusion: there's definitely a problem when readind files from samba server. It's not network related, since FTP is really fast, and when serving the database from XP, the speed is OK too. The server is a brand new Core 2 Duo E4500, 2GB RAM, 160 GB HD SATAII. The switch is also new. The distro in question is FC5. As a related topic, I've came across a situation (two times and couting) when writing files to the samba server is painfully slow. On both cases, setting SO_RCVBUF=1 has resolved the problem. I don't know why, but it did. Both times,...

At least 2 gigE nics. <BR> 2. At least 6 SATAII ports (and at least 6 drive slots) <BR> 3. Reasonable price (probably going to build it myself.) <BR> I''m not worried about hotswapping. I want to make sure the box is going to be upgradeable with decent priced parts for a while (so PCI is out). My current fileserver is...

...ciding I wanted increase the size of this pool, I detached 1 disk, then pulled it out. I replaced it with a newer bigger sata II wd750 gb disk. When I attempted to startup and attach this disk, I didn''t get by the boot process, and discovered my sata controller could not handle the newer SATAII disk.. No boot was possible. I finally got the sata contoller in shape to work by flashing the 2 part BIOS with latest bios for that card. (Sil 3112a chip). Restarted with 1 original 200gb disk and 1 new 750gb disk. It booted and I was abble to attach the new larger drive and begin the resilve...

This Asus board looks promising, assuming the parts (nForce 680a chipset) are Solaris friendly: http://www.asus.com.tw/products4.aspx?l1=3&l2=136&l3=486&model=1530&modelmenu=2 The board boasts 12 (!) SATA2 ports. The FX-7x series CPUs appear to be a very cost effective ($799) 4 core solution. Ian

...MDADM. Primary drive does not blink, but all others do including spares. These boards use the Intel ICH9R chipset. AHCI is enabled. When AHCI is disabled, drives stop blinking, but drives are then detected as hda,hdb,etc. and server takes a huge performance hit. All Servers have Western Digital SATAII 320G RE2 Drives. So far: I have reloaded Kernels Tried CentOS plus Kernels Flashed the Bios Replaced Backplane The funny thing is, not all servers are affected. If anyone has any ideas or could just point me in the right direction, it would be extremely appreciated. It's an annoyance more t...

Hi there I am analyzing disk performance. I'm testing raw (tap: aio) and lvm (phy :). The tests I'm doing on a SLES11SP3, cpu I7, 4GBRam, disco-SATAII 7200rpm. With phy: lvm achievement 70-80MiB / s (an acceptable value) With tap: aio: file.raw achievement 5-9MiB / s, which is very low ... 10MiB / s is what you should expect access to a tap: aio: file.raw? or I have something misconfigured? my cfg is: name = "satotestx" maxmem = 102...

Hi, I hope there''s someone here who can possibly provide some assistance. I''ve had this read problem now for the past 2 months and just can''t get to the bottom of it. I have a home snv_111b server, with a zfs raid pool (4 x Samsung 750GB SATA drives). The motherboard is a ASUS M2N68-CM (4 SATA ports) with an Athlon LE1620 single core CPU and 4GB of RAM.

Hi, Does anybody has any experience with e-sata on CentOS5.2? - How fast is it? Same as an internal sata? - Does it support sata-2? - Does it "hot-plug" like a USB? -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com When the network has to work

Thanks Rowland, They've been there all along and the thing ran for a month so my gut said they weren't problematic.
