[zfs-discuss] build a zfs continuous data replication in opensolaris
I have setup 2 servers with zfs pools I want to replicate continously to the second server is there a way I can do it with zfs are there any examples I can follow to build this setup. There are no good books on opensolaris explaining this method. Also are there a script repository for zfs stuff. I dont find a lot of resources dedicated to zfs which I think is an amazing fs system. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Hi Richard I was looking at nexentastor developer edition and I see they have given it a nice gui but I cant configure auto-cdp plugin can I configure it through the shell. Also if the performance is problem what other options are there for a high availability zfs system across 2 systems. In linux we have something called DRBD and it works very well unfortunately we don't have zfs native only through fuse which is not usable at all. Also can you recommend me some example configuration or books that I can refer to building this as I am from linux background and dont know much about solaris. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Hi Richard What do you mean by "A mirror would be simple" do you mean to use zfs send and receive. Also is the auto-cdp plugin free with nexenstor developer. Is there a detailed explaination of AVS where they explain all the companents involved like what is bitmap for etc. If AVS is there around for some time where are books explaining this technolgy, Does anyone use it in production as seems to me it has a lot problems in terms of performance. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Hi Andreas , The paper looks good are any basic examples on AVS or open-ha that explains the componets throughly and guides. What books or resource you recommend I get more information about this as I cant find any books -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Hi Andreas I will explain to you what I need . You say IMHO is simpler than AVS thats good . I have setup 2 nexentacore boxes with zfs pools and nfs on the first node. Now I need to install the open-ha cluster software with non shared disks. I now need to make zfs with nfs HA. I understand the concepts of HA where one needs to have heartbeat, disks and failover configs created. Is there examples on this setup I can work with. Dont get me wrong comstar is good but not fast as nfs. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
