Hello All, I want to build a home file and media server now. After experiment with a Asus Board and running in unsolve problems I have bought this Supermicro Board X8SIA-F with Intel i3-560 and 8 GB Ram http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon3000/3400/X8SIA.cfm?IPMI=Y also the LSI HBA SAS 9211-8i

I''m using Solaris 10u6 updated to u7 via patches, and I have a pool with a mirrored pair and a (shared) hot spare. We reconfigured disks a while ago and now the controller is c4 instead of c2. The hot spare was originally on c2, and apparently on rebooting it didn''t get found. So, I looked up what the new name for the hot spare was, then added it to the pool with "zpool

Hi Johnny, Thank you for your reply. It seems to me that my message may have came around as offensive but that was not my intend. I have basic understanding how things work and when I said CentOS I actually meant Red Hat and all its derivatives. I asked CentOS community because that's the community I'm member of. Not to say that CentOS is not secure or anything like that. Anyway,

Awesome. Thank you. Embarrassing but I can't find the Q&A page with this question. Can you please post a link to it.

We have been using ZFS for user home directories for a good while now. When we discovered the problem with full filesystems not allowing deletes over NFS, we became very anxious to fix this; our users fill their quotas on a fairly regular basis, so it''s important that they have a simple recourse to fix this (e.g., rm). I played around with this on my OpenSolaris box at home, read around

The standard controller that has been recommended in the past is the AOC-SAT2-MV8 - an 8 port with a marvel chipset. There have been several mentions of LSI based controllers on the mailing lists and I''m wondering about them. One obvious difference is that the Marvel contoller is PCI-X and the LSI controllers are PCI-E. Supermicro have several LSI controllers. AOC-USASLP-L8i with the

I would like to request an additional flag for the command line zfs tools. Specifically, I''d like to have a -t flag for "zfs destroy", as shown below. Suppose I have a pool "home" with child filesystem "will", and a snapshot "home/will at yesterday". Then I run the following commands: # zfs destroy -t volume home/will at yesterday zfs: not

HTTPD on some of my CentOS5 systems is configured to run as user "nobody". Also, it needs access to some exported file systems. CentOS5 uses NFS3 so I changed the ownership of the files on the storage server to "nobody" to give httpd full permissions. Now I want to rebuild these systems with CentOS6 and httpd running as user "apache". The problem is how to give

I''m putting together a NexentaOS (b65)-based server that has 4 500 GB drives on it. Currently it has two, set up as a ZFS mirror. I''m able to boot Nexenta from it, and it seems to work ok. But, as I''ve learned, the mirror is not properly redundant, and so I can''t just have a drive fail (when I pull one, the OS ends up hanging, and even if I replace it, I have to

On CentOS5 I was used to create a simple spec file where at the end I'll declare files and directories I wan't to package: --< Snip >-- %files %dir /opt/myapp %dir /opt/myapp/bin %dir /opt/myapp/etc /opt/myapp/bin/exec01 /opt/myapp/etc/myapp.conf ---- I'll copy the file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and run "rpmbuild -bb myapp.spec". On CentOS6 rpm-build package no longer

Under the GUI, there is an "advanced" option which shows vdev capacity, etc. I''m drawing a blank about how to get with the commands... Thanks, David This message posted from opensolaris.org

I posted a thread here... http://forums.opensolaris.com/thread.jspa?threadID=596 I am trying to finish building a system and I kind of need to pick working NIC and onboard SATA chipsets (video is not a big deal - I can get a silent PCIe card for that, I already know one which works great) I need 8 onboard SATA. I would prefer Intel CPU. At least one gigabit port. That''s about it. I

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 would like to ask some questions regarding best practices for zfs recovery if disk errors occur. currently i have zfs boot (nv62) and the following setup: 2 si3224 controllers (each 4 sata disks) 8 sata disks, same size, same type i have two pools: a) rootpool b) datapool the rootpool is a mirrored pool, where every disk has a slice (the s0, which is 5 % of the whole disk) and this

Hi list, as this matter pops up every now and then in posts on this list I just want to clarify that the real performance of RaidZ (in its current implementation) is NOT anything that follows from raidz-style data efficient redundancy or the copy-on-write design used in ZFS. In a M-Way mirrored setup of N disks you get the write performance of the worst disk and a read performance that is

Hi, all, Environment: S10U3 running as VMWare Workstation 6 guest; Fedora 7 is the VMWare host, 1 GB RAM I''m creating a solution in which I need to be able to save off state on one host, then restore it on another. I''m using ZFS snapshots with ZFS receive and it''s all working fine, except for some strange behavior when I perform multiple rollbacks and receives.

Well this is a new one.... Illumos/Openindiana let me add a device as a hot spare that evidently has a different sector alignment than all of the other drives in the array. So now I''m at the point that I /need/ a hot spare and it doesn''t look like I have it. And, worse, the other spares I have are all the same model as said hot spare. Is there anything I can do with this or

I''m migrating to ZFS and Solaris for cluster computing storage, and have some completely static data sets that need to be as fast as possible. One of the scenarios I''m testing is the addition of vdevs to a pool. Starting out, I populated a pool that had 4 vdevs. Then, I added 3 more vdevs and would like to balance this data across the pool for performance. The data may be

Hello, I''m quite interested in ZFS, like everybody else I suppose, and am about to install FBSD with ZFS. On that note, i have a different first question to start with. I personally am a Linux fanboy, and would love to see/use ZFS on linux. I assume that I can use those ZFS disks later with any os that can work/recognizes ZFS correct? e.g. I can install/setup ZFS in FBSD, and later use
