[zfs-discuss] DeDup and Compression - Reverse Order?

2009-12-13 Thread Steve Radich, BitShop, Inc.
I enabled compression on a zfs filesystem with compression=gzip9 - i.e. fairly slow compression - this stores backups of databases (which compress fairly well). The next question is: Is the CRC on the disk based on the uncompressed data (which seems more likely to be able to be recovered) or b

Actually, recent batches of WD drives don't let you change the TLER setting anymore, which is why I was concerned about this. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.or

It may not be supported, but you can swap drives between systems and it does work very well. I did a Solaris 8 -> Solaris 10 migration on ~200 systems in 2007. I had a set of systems that I jumpstarted, then, once the system was built, I pulled the drives and placed them in the new system.

Re: [zfs-discuss] compressratio vs. dedupratio

Thank you. However I think it should be more clearly stated in zpool(1M) perhaps even referring to compressratio and explaining that this one is different, plus information as shown below how to get a dedupratio which is similar in meaning to compressratio. On 13/12/2009 11:44, Jeff Bonwic

Re: [zfs-discuss] compressratio vs. dedupratio

2009-12-13 Thread Jeff Bonwick
It is by design. The idea is to report the dedup ratio for the data you've actually attempted to dedup. To get a 'diluted' dedup ratio of the sort you describe, just compare the space used by all datasets to the space allocated in the pool. For example, on my desktop, I have a pool called 'build
