similar to: DMAPI in ZFS

I said I had several questions to start threads on.... What about ZFS and various HSM solutions? Do any of them already work with ZFS? Are any going to? It seems like HSM solutions that access things at a file level would have little trouble integrating with ZFS. But ones that work at a block level would have a harder time. On that same thread, what about support for DMAPI within ZFS?

Hi. I''m happy to inform that the ZFS file system is now part of the FreeBSD operating system. ZFS is available in the HEAD branch and will be available in FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE as an experimental feature. Commit log: Please welcome ZFS - The last word in file systems. ZFS file system was ported from OpenSolaris operating system. The code in under CDDL license. I''d

Hi. I gave a talk about ZFS during EuroBSDCon 2007, and because it won the the best talk award and some find it funny, here it is: http://youtube.com/watch?v=o3TGM0T1CvE a bit better version is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/misc/zfs/zfs-man.swf BTW. Inspired by ZFS demos from OpenSolaris page I created few demos of ZFS on FreeBSD:

Hi my understanding is that you cannot remove a disk from a ZFS storage pool once you have added it...but I also think I saw an email from Jeff B saying that the ability to depopulate a disk so that it can be removed is being worked on....or was I dreaming ? What is the status of this ? Thanks Tim -- Signature Tim Thomas Staff Engineer Storage Systems Product Group

I believe concerns like this should go to you?

Hello, I tried to disable loading of the zfs module by adding "exclude zfs" in /etc/system. I rebooted and got into "maintainance mode" with many services disbaled (as svcs -xv shows). I don''t have any zfs partitons on this machine. So my question is: for what is the zfs module in booting of solaris ? Why can''t it be disabled? Regards, David This message

Formerly, if you interrupted a zfs receive, it would leave a clone with a % in its name, and you could find it via "zdb -d" and then you could destroy the clone, and then you could destroy the filesystem you had interrupted receiving. That was considered a bug, and it was fixed, I think by Sun. If the lingering clone was discovered laying around, zfs would automatically destroy it.

Hi, I''m still debating wether I should use ZFS or not and how. Here is my scenario. I want to run a server with a lot of storage, that gets disks added/upgraded from time to time to expand space. I''d want to store large files on it, 15mb - 5gb per file, and they''d only need to be accessible via NFS/FTP and maybe CIFS. The machine I have dedicated for this job would be

Hi, Searching this alias I can find a number of guides and scripts that describe the configuration of Solaris to boot from a ZFS rootpool. However, these guides appear to be Solaris 10 x86 specific. Is the creation of a ZFS boot disk available for Solaris SPARC ? If so, could you point me in the direction of where I can obtain details of this new feature from. Thanks and Regards, Paul. PS:

There''s not much that CIFS can do as far as user quotas go without filesystem support. I''ve CC''ed zfs-discuss, somebody there might be able to provide you something useful.

I was in the process of doing a large zfs send | zfs receive when I decided that I wanted to terminate the the zfs send process. I killed it, but the zfs receive doesn''t want to die... In the meantime my zfs list command just hangs. Here is the tail end of the truss output from a "truss zfs list": ioctl(3, ZFS_IOC_OBJSET_STATS, 0x08043484) = 0 ioctl(3,

I''ve run across something that would save me days of trouble. Situation, the contents of one ZFS file system needs to be moved to another ZFS file system. The destination can be the same Zpool, even a brand new ZFS file system. A command to move the data from one ZFS file system to another, WITHOUT COPYING, would be nice. At present, the data is almost 1TB. Ideally a "zmv" or

We have some HDS storage that isn''t supported by mpxio, so we have to use veritas dmp to get multipathing. Whats the recommended way to use DMP storage with ZFS. I want to use DMP but get at the multipathed virtual luns at as low a level as possible to avoid using vxvm as much as possible. I figure theres no point in having overhead from 2 volume manages if we can avoid it. Has anyone

Hello zfs-discuss, I wonder if ZFS will be able to take any advantage of Niagara''s built-in crypto? -- Best regards, Robert Milkowski mailto:rmilkowski at task.gda.pl http://milek.blogspot.com
