similar to: Areca Raid 6 ARC-1231 Raid 6 Slow LS Listing Performance on large directory

I have been experimenting with dirhash settings, and have scoured the internet for other peoples' experience with it. (I found the performance improvement in compiling has forestalled the need to add an SSD drive. ;-) I believe that increasing the following values by 10 would benefit most FreeBSD users without disadvantage. vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem: 2097152 to 20971520

I must be doing something horribly wrong and I hope somebody can help. The Areca arc-1224 is not supported by the Areca driver included driver in 7.1 so I have to supply that when starting the install. Documentation provided by Areca and in the Red Hat install guide say the same thing, put the driver on an accessible medium then append inst.dd on the boot command, choose the driver and now the

Running C6 fileserver. Want to replace 7 year old HDs connected to an Areca ARC-1220 raid sata II (3Gb/s) controller. Has anyone used this controller with newer 2TB SATA III (6Gb/s) WD Re drives like the WD2000FYYZ or the WD2004FBYZ?

On the system where I'm doing the install, I used dd to read the entire DVD and also copied every .rpm to /dev/null and didn't get any I/O errors. What next?

Sorry Valeri, that only works if you're the only guy in the org. In reality, you cannot

Hello Got strange problem with high system "%system load" and very slow user level programs (apache+php+mysql) behavior gstat shows 1.5-4% hard disk busy load but system shows about 20-30% load while user load is max 5%. vmstat shows from 2 to 35 process in "b" state. Now use 7.0-RELEASE-p5 , but the same problem was with 7.0-RELEASE. And have no idea what to do with this.

Hi Valeri, Before you pull a drive you should check to make sure that doing so won't kill the whole array. MegaCli can help you prevent a storage disaster and can let you have more insight into your RAID and the status of the virtual disks and the disks than make up each array. MegaCli will let you see the health and status of each drive. Does it have media errors, is it in predictive

Hi, Does anyone have experiences about ARC-1883I SAS controller with CentOS7? I am planning to have RAID1 setup and I am wondering if I should use the controller's RAID functionality which has 2GB cache or should I go with JBOD + Linux software RAID? The disks I am going to use are 6TB Seagate Enterprise ST6000NM0034 7200rpm SAS/12Gbit 128 MB If hardware RAID is preferred, the

What did I say to make you treat me as an ultimate idiot!? ;-) All my comments, at least in my own reading, we about things you need to do to make sure when you hot unplug bad drive it is indeed failed

I successfully did my first FreeBSD upgrade yesterday after looking at the manual, and cross referencing with Googling and getting help from our network engineer here at CWU. Before the upgrade, running df showed: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 507630 77662 389358 17% / devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/da0s1e

I am interested in being able to encode a single Opus stream using several CPU cores. I get a raw audio input and "opusenc" can transcode it at 1200% speed (Raspberry PI 3B+). It saturates a single CPU core, but the other three are idle. Is out there any project to add multithreading options to "opusenc", or something in that line? Looking around, I have found this:
