Can you please provide uname -a output? The built date of your kernel matters in this case. The panic looks like uma(9) is in use, which was enabled by default and then later reverted/removed, so this is why the build date matters. If "sysctl vfs.zfs.zio.use_uma" shows a value of 1, then please put this in your /boot/loader.conf to disable uma use: # Disable UMA (uma(9)) for ZFS; amd64 was moved to exclusively use UMA # on 2010/05/24. # http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-June/057162.html vfs.zfs.zio.use_uma="0" If you upgrade to RELENG_8, you won't have to set this. As for your questions under "Questions" -- yes you have to tune, no there aren't really "reliable guidelines" and I've been asking for such since ZFS came out for FreeBSD, but your values look fine. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
