Hi all, Can anyone explain to me, or point me to any docs that explain how the following numbers map together? I have multiple LUNS exported to my HBA''s from multiple EMC arrays. zpool status, and /dev/dsk show device names like: c0t6006048000038794003753594D333837d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c0t6006048000038794003753594D333838d0 ONLINE 0 0 0

Hi ! I am using MPXIO for doing multipathing across four HBA''s. Now I need to know how much IO/sec each HBA card is serving. With EMC powerpath installed, we could get this using powermt display every=5. is there any way I can use Dtrace to extract this output ? I guess MPXIO just shows one Device name to the OS so dev__pathname won''t be able to tell me per HBA i/O. Regds,

Where can I find a list of supported multipath drivers for ZFS?

Greetings, In looking for inexpensive JBOD and/or RAID solutions to use with ZFS, I''ve run across the recent "VTrak" SAS/SATA systems from Promise Technologies, specifically their E-class and J-class series: E310f FC-connected RAID: http://www.promise.com/product/product_detail_eng.asp?product_id=175 E310s SAS-connected RAID:

How much fun can you have with a simple thing like powerpath? Here''s the story: I have a (remote) system with access to a couple of EMC LUNs. Originally, I set it up with mpxio and created a simple zpool containing the two LUNs. It''s now been reconfigured to use powerpath instead of mpxio. My problem is that I can''t import the pool. I get: pool: ###### id:

Hi, I just deploy the ZFS on an SAN attach disk array and it''s working fine. How do i get dual pathing advantage of the disk ( like DMP in Veritas). Can someone point to correct doc and setup. Thanks in Advance. Rgds Vikash Gupta This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi, We had received a new EMC storage (Clariion CX4) and the EMC analist has told us that CentOS aren't on their support list, but RHEL are :) Well anybody on the list has a CentOS host talking (iSCSI) with an EMC storage, preferably using the EMC Powerpath software, and can talk about you experience? Or I will need to buy some REHL licenses ? I'll put my hands on it only next

I see list discussions on this subject from a few years back but they were very brief and, it seems, inconclusive. I would be interested in hearing from anybody who has discovered the "trick" to getting an EMC Celerra to join their Samba 3.x domain. I have an old NetApp Filer happily joined. I simply created an account with "smbldap-useradd -w filername" and when I then

A couple years ago, we moved to Oracle RAC on Linux using ocfs that is SAN attached to an EMC CLARiiON. At the time, there was a reason that we did NOT use EMC's Powerpath (I just can't recall what that reason was). What I'd like to know is if there are any issues with introducing Powerpath now. * RHEL 2.1 AS * 2.4.9-e.38enterprise * ocfs-2.4.9-e-enterprise-1.0.13-1 * EMC

Hi, I'm getting "Permission denied" error while connecting to a EMC cifs share from samba client on unix machine. Looking at the packet capture it is observed that ?samba client is authenticating with "anonymous" instead of the user name that has been provided. Here are flags received from EMC server as part of ?"Session Setup AndX Response, NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE,

Greetings, We''re trying out a new JBOD here. Multipath (mpxio) is not working, and we could use some feedback and/or troubleshooting advice. The OS is oi151a7, running on an existing server with a 54TB pool of internal drives. I believe the server hardware is not relevant to the JBOD issue, although the internal drives do appear to the OS with multipath device names (despite the fact

I''m planning on setting up an NFS server for our ESXi hosts and plan on using a virtualized Solaris or Nexenta host to serve ZFS over NFS. The storage I have available is provided by Equallogic boxes over 10Gbe iSCSI. I am trying to figure out the best way to provide both performance and resiliency given the Equallogic provides the redundancy. Since I am hoping to provide a 2TB

I have a couple EMC relabled ACBEL/Polytech UPSs which I'm unable to find anything about. What I do know is that ACBEL/Polytech is CoolerMaster, however, they don't make UPSs that I know of. These UPSs were used as part of an EMC Clarion array. Does anyone know anything about these? Thanks, Mark. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi. I''m managing a HDS storage system which is slightly larger than 100 TB and we have used approx. 3/4. We use vxfs. The storage system is attached to a solaris 9 on sparc via a fiberswitch. The storage is shared via nfs to our webservers. If I was to replace vxfs with zfs I could utilize raidz(2) instead of the built-in hardware raid-controller. Are there any jbod-only storage

Folks, I''m trying to figure out whether we should give ZFS / mpxio a shot on one of our research servers, or simply skip it (as we have previously). In Nov 2009 Cindy responded to a thread concerning ZFS device issues, cfgadm, and mpxio: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/zfs-discuss/2009-November/033496.html I''ve got an x2270 with the Sun EZ-SAS HBA and external SATA

hello, all I am have constraint disk space (only 8GB) while running os inside vm. Now i want to add more. It is easy to add for vm but how can i update fs in os? I cannot use autoexpand because it doesn''t implemented in my system: $ uname -a SunOS sopen 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc If it was 171 it would be grate, right? Doing following: o added new virtual HDD (it becomes

Hi there, have a strange behavior if i?ll create a zfs pool at an EMC PowerPath pseudo device. I can create a pool on emcpower0a but not on emcpower2a zpool core dumps with invalid argument .... ???? Thats my second maschine with powerpath and zfs the first one works fine, even zfs/powerpath and failover ... Is there anybody who has the same failure and a solution ? :) Greets Dominik

During the diagnostics of my SAN failure last week we thought we had seen a backplane failure due to high error counts with ''lsiutil''. However, even with a new backplane and ruling out failed cards (MPXIO or singular) or bad cables I''m still seeing my error count with LSIUTIL increment. I''ve got no disks attached to the array right now so I''ve also

I decided to post this question to the mailing list because it needs ZFS knowledge to be solved. The situation is like this: I have a blade server that boots from a LUN, which has no additional storage or internal disk but that LUN used to boot. MPxIO works perfectly; but the management wants to use EMC PowerPath, because the company already has an investment on licensing. After disabling
