Does anyone else use ZFS to store TM backups? I find that whenever my laptop (over wifi!) starts a TM the ZFS machine it's backing up to grinds to a halt.. Other systems streaming stuff over NFS from it also tend to stall..
I presume that TM is doing something which causes ZFS some issues but I'm not sure how to find out what the real problem is let alone how to fix it.. I am running FreeBSD midget.dons.net.au 8.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-PRERELEASE #8 r217094M: Sat Jan 8 11:15:07 CST 2011 dar...@midget.dons.net.au:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MIDGET amd64 It is a 5 disk RAIDZ1 with 1.29Tb free using WD10EADS drives. I don't see any SMART errors or ZFS warnings. I have the following ZFS related tunables vfs.zfs.arc_max="3072M" vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable="1" vfs.zfs.txg.timeout=5 vfs.zfs.cache_flush_disable=1 Any help appreciated, thanks :) -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
