As others have said - your drives probably don't have the alignment requiremnt, but your posts show in an excellent example why benchmarking file systems is complicated and how easy it is to measure noise instead of the real thing. To measure real performance in your case, you would either need to benchmark at a layer beneath the file system or with a simple file system which does alwasy predictable io patterns. It's hard to do with zfs with raidz - afaik even accessing the "raw" zvols translates into complex IOs (they are COW). ___ 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"

This is extremely off-topic, and therefor, I´ll only say, that the above is not true for 8" diskettes nor for CP/M. I can only guess, that there is a track 0 and not a sector with that number because the first track was reserved for system internal use (e.g. held at least the CCP in case of CP/M). I´m quite sure, that FDCs generally supported sector numbers from 0 to 254 (with 255 reserved as a wildcard in certain commands). But this is all really off-topic ...

nfsv4 strangeness
Greetings fellow list-mates. I have been trying to set up a zfs filesystem in order to share it over the network using nfs. The filesystem was easy enough to set up. As long I was using nfsv3, everything was in order. I was able to mount the share (from my archlinux desktop pc). My headaches started when I tried to enable the nfsv4 server. When I added nfsv4_server_enable="YES" to the rc.conf file, I started getting errors and I could not mount the share at all. Right now, the output I get while mounting is: mount.nfs4: timeout set for Tue Jul 27 06:14:56 2010 mount.nfs4: trying text-based options 'addr=192.168.2.100,clientaddr=192.168.2.64' mount.nfs4: mount(2): Permission denied mount.nfs4: access denied by server while mounting files:/temper The last line suggests that it is the server's fault, and that's why I'm here. After searching the web for any clue I admit I haven't found a thing. The server is running 8.1-RELEASE amd64 with the generic kernel. More or less all files are the ones that come with the default installation. As for the filesystem: [r...@files ~]# zfs get sharenfs temper NAMEPROPERTY VALUE SOURCE temper sharenfs onlocal All pointers are welcome. ___ 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"
