Hi all, I've a 30TB hardware based RAID array. Wondering what you all thought of using ext4 over XFS. I've been a big XFS fan for years as I'm an Irix transplant but would like your opinions. This 30TB drive will be an NFS exported asset for my users housing home dirs and other frequently accessed files. - aurf

Hi there! I am new to the list, and to OpenSolaris, as well as ZPS. I am creating a zpool/zfs to use on my NAS server, and basically I want some redundancy for my files/media. What I am looking to do, is get a bunch of 2TB drives, and mount them mirrored, and in a zpool so that I don''t have to worry about running out of room. (I know, pretty typical I guess). My problem is, is that

Hey, guys I just do the test for use loop device as vdev for zpool Procedures as followings: 1) mkfile -v 100m disk1 mkfile -v 100m disk2 2) lofiadm -a disk1 /dev/lofi lofiadm -a disk2 /dev/lofi 3) zpool create pool_1and2 /dev/lofi/1 and /dev/lofi/2 4) zpool export pool_1and2 5) zpool import pool_1and2 error info here: bash-3.00# zpool import pool1_1and2 cannot import

Hi All, I''d like to set up dumping to a file. This file is on a mirrored pool using zfs. It seems that the dump setup doesn''t work with zfs. This worked for both a standard UFS slice and a SVM mirror using zfs. Is there something that I''m doing wrong, or is this not yet supported on ZFS? Note this is Solaris 10 Update 3, but I don''t think that should

Hi all, How to reserve a space on a zfs filesystem? For mkfiel or dd will write data to the block, it is time consuming. whiel "mkfile -n" will not really hold the space. And zfs''s set reservation only work on filesytem, not on file? Could anyone provide a solution for this? Thanks very much Vincent

Adam, With the blog entry[1] you''ve made about gzip for ZFS, it raises a couple of questions... 1) It would appear that a ZFS filesystem can support files of varying compression algorithm. If a file is compressed using method A but method B is now active, if I truncate the file and rewrite it, is A or B used? 2) The question of whether or not to use bzip2 was raised in the

Hi, I am able to reproduce the following panic on a number of Solaris 10 06/06 boxes (Sun Blade 150, V210 and T2000). The script to do this is: #!/bin/sh -x uname -a mkfile 100m /data zpool create tank /data zpool status cd /tank ls -al cp /etc/services . ls -al cd / rm /data zpool status # uncomment the following lines if you want to see the system think # it can still read and write to the

We are running Solaris 10 11/06 on a Sun V240 with 2 CPUS and 8 GB of memory. This V240 is attached to a 3510 FC that has 12 x 300 GB disks. The 3510 is configured as HW RAID 5 with 10 disks and 2 spares and it''s exported to the V240 as a single LUN. We create iso images of our product in the following way (high-level): # mkfile 3g /isoimages/myiso # lofiadm -a /isoimages/myiso

Currently I''m trying to figure out the best zfs layout for a thumper wrt. to read AND write performance. I did some simple mkfile 512G tests and found out, that per average ~ 500 MB/s seems to be the maximum on can reach (tried initial default setup, all 46 HDDs as R0, etc.). According to http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/DownloadableAssets/ArchitectureWP_062806.pdf I would

Hi all, i want to replace a bunch of Apple Xserves with Xraids and HFS+ (brr) by Sun x4200 with SAS-Jbods and ZFS. The application will be the Helios UB+ fileserver suite. I installed the latest Solaris 10 on a x4200 with 8gig of ram and two Sun SAS controllers, attached two sas-jbods with 8 SATA-HDDs each und created a zfs pool as a raid 10 by doing something like the following: [i]zpool create

Hi all, I received my SSD, and wanted to test it out using fake zpools with files as backing stores before attaching it to my production pool. However, when I exported the test pool and imported, I get an error. Here is what I did: I created a file to use as a backing store for my new pool: mkfile 1g /data01/test2/1gtest Created a new pool: zpool create ziltest2 /data01/test2/1gtest Added the

I've previously installed R on Solaris and everything went fine there. I'm now trying to install on Irix 6.5 (about which, unfortunately, I have less than thorough knowledge) and it is failing. R itself seems to be working okay. Initially, Irix's dumb make program didn't understand some Makefile syntax in the tests, so I just ignored them and installed it. After the

Hello, I have tried running OpenSSH 3.7.1p2 on an Indy running IRIX 5.3. It compiled and installed without any problems. However, I get the fatal error, which originates from uidswap.c in function permanently_set_uid(): fatal: permanently_set_uid: was able to restore old [e]uid This happens even if "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" is used in sshd_config. It seems to be a problem

Anyone know of a brief overview of the expected limitations on an IRIX system running Samba 2.2.3a +Winbind? Everything seems to least work, but I still find some odd permissions things going on. The IRIX machine is authenticating NT users from my NT domain OK and I can specify user rights to files, but when you do a long listing under IRIX it list the file as being owned by DOMAIN-NAME with

We're had some recurring problems with nmbd's on Solaris 2.7 and Irix 6.5 failing to renew their WINS registrations in a timely manner causing the records to become tombstoned. While we've solved it by issuing "pkill" and "killall", respectively, of nmbd nightly from root's crontab, I wanted to alert the authors and other administrators to the problem so similar

IRIX has a compatibility mechanism that lets you test for optional symbols (like jlimit_start) at run-time. I think these patches will let all all IRIX 6.5 systems build images that will test for job limit support dynamically: --- ./configure.ac Wed Feb 27 01:12:35 2002 +++ ../openssh-3.1p1/./configure.ac Thu Mar 7 15:50:21 2002 @@ -115,7 +115,7 @@ AC_DEFINE(WITH_IRIX_ARRAY)
