Hello, What is the access algorithm used within multi-component pools for a given pool, and does it change when one or more members of the pool become degraded ? examples: zpool create mtank mirror c1t0d0 c2t0d0 mirror c3t0d0 c4t0d0 mirror c5t0d0 c6t0d0 or; zpool create ztank raidz c1t0d0 c2t0d0 c3t0d0 raidz c4t0d0 c5t0d0 c6t0d0 As files are created on the filesystem within these pools,

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

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''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

Well, I''ve searched my brains out and I can''t seem to find a reason for this. I''m getting bad to medium performance with my new test storage device. I''ve got 24 1.5T disks with 2 SSDs configured as a zil log device. I''m using the Areca raid controller, the driver being arcmsr. Quad core AMD with 16 gig of RAM OpenSolaris upgraded to snv_134. The zpool

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, 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

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

HI, The question is a ZFS performance question in reguards to SAN traffic. We are trying to benchmark ZFS vx VxFS file systems and I get the following performance results. Test Setup: Solaris 10: 11/06 Dual port Qlogic HBA with SFCSM (for ZFS) and DMP (of VxFS) Sun Fire v490 server LSI Raid 3994 on backend ZFS Record Size: 128KB (default) VxFS Block Size: 8KB(default) The only thing

Solaris in 32-bit mode has a 1TB device limit. UFS filesystems in 32-bit mode also have a 1TB limit, even if using a logical volume manager to span smaller than 1TB devices. So, what kind of limit does ZFS have when running under 32-bit Solaris? -- Erik Trimble Java System Support Mailstop: usca14-102 Phone: x17195 Santa Clara, CA

Hi, When deploying ZFS in cluster environment it would be nice to be able to have some SSDs as local drives (not on SAN) and when pool switches over to the other node zfs would pick up the node''s local disk drives as L2ARC. To better clarify what I mean lets assume there is a 2-node cluster with 1sx 2540 disk array. Now lets put 4x SSDs in each node (as internal/local drives). Now

We have a Mirror setup in ZFS that''s 73GB (two internal disks on a sun fire v440). We currently are going to attach this system to an Equallogic Box, and will attach an ISCSCI LUN from the Equallogic box to the v440 of about 200gb. The Equallogic Box is configured as a Hardware Raid 50 (two hot spares for redundancy). My question is what''s the best approach to moving the ZFS

Suppose I have a storage server that runs ZFS, presumably providing file (NFS) and/or block (iSCSI, FC) services to other machines that are running Solaris. Some of the use will be for LDoms and zones[1], which would create zpools on top of zfs (fs or zvol). I have concerns about variable block sizes and the implications for performance. 1.

Hi, Just playing with zfs and the admin manual ... # mkfile 100m /export/zfs/disk1 # zpool create data /export/zfs/disk1 # zfs create data/users # zfs mount -o remount,noatime data/users # zfs get all data/users NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE data/users type filesystem - data/users creation Mon Nov 20 11:25 2006

I just BFU''ed up to B61 and started to play with IP Instances.

Hi All, I posted this in a different threat, but it was recommended that I post in this one. Basically, I have a 3 drive raidz array on internal Seagate drives. running build 64nv. I purchased 3 add''l USB drives with the intention of mirroring and then migrating the data to the new USB drives. I accidentally added the 3 USB drives in a raidz to my original storage pool, so now I have 2

Please can someone take a look at the attached file which shows the output on my machine of zfs list -r -t filesystem,snapshot -o space rpool/export/home/matt The USEDDS figure of ~2GB is what I would expect, and is the same figure reported by the Disk Usage Analyzer. Where is the remaining 13.8GB USEDSNAP figure coming from? If I total up the list of zfs-auto snapshots it adds up to about 4.8GB,

Hi everybody, I'm receiving the message "res_musiconhold.c:309 monmp3thread: Request to schedule in the past?!?!" in asterisk console when I try to put a call on hold. I don't the reason and I'm sure the relative module is loaded. In musiconhold.conf I put these lines, trying something I found in some previous post: ; ; Music on hold class definitions ; [classes]
