hello
if you are looking for pci-e (8x), i would recommend sas/sata controller
with lsi 1068E sas chip. they are nearly perfect with opensolaris.
you must look for controller with it firmware (jbod mode) not
those with raid enabled (ir mode). normally the cheaper
variants are the right ones.

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a raidz pool on 4 disks attached to an Asus P5BV-M
motherboard with an Intel ICH7R. The bios lets me pick IDE, RAID, or AHCI for
the disks. I'm not interested in the motherboard's raid, and reading previous
posts, it sounded like there were performance advantages to picking

zpool import can be a little pessimistic about corrupted labels.
First, try physically removing the problem disk and try to import again.
If that doesn't work, then verify the labels on each disk using:
zdb -l /dev/rdsk/c5d1s0
each disk should have 4 readable labels.

do you want to use it as a file smb-fileserver or do you want to have other
windows services? if you want to use it as a file server only, i would suggest
to use build in cifs server.
iscsi will be always slower than native cifs server and you have snapshots via
windows property previo

uberblocks are the trunk of the tree.

Tim, did ZFS or CIFS add other pathconf() values which need to be
implemented in getconf or ksh93?

I've got a Supermicro AOC-USAS-L8I on the way because I gather from these
forums that it works well. I'll just wait for that, then try 8 disks on that an
4 on the motherboard SATA ports.

I'm looking to move our file storage from Windows to Opensolaris/zfs. The
windows box will be connected through 10g for iscsi to the storage. The windows
box will continue to serve the windows clients and will be hosting
approximately 4TB of data.
The physical box is a sunfire x4240, single AMD

In the simplest terms,
NCP (nexenta.org) = Free as in speech/beer
NexentaStor Community Edition (nexentastor.org) = Free as in beer
- NCP underneath + closed WebGUI + FOSS plugins
NexentaStor enter
"free nexentastor community edition = commercial edition without support,"
You are opened my eyes :)
start to download, tomorrow will look

Hi Richard,
Hm, I guess I misunderstand the function of uberblocks. I thought uberblocks
contained pointers (to...?) which the system then uses to retrieve the files.
If I'm incorrect in thinking that I could use an older uberblock to retrieve
the data, what am I missing?
I've tried to find so

Just to clarify, there is only one file on the opensolaris cifs server called
myfile.txt. myfile.TXT does not exist really, but the cifs server should be
case insensitive and return myfile.txt.
I did sniff the traffic and opensolaris return 'file not found' when accessing
myfile.TXT.

My understanding of "passthrough disk" from the Areca documentation is that
single drives are exempted from the RAID controller regime and that the port
will behave just like a plain HBA port.
Now, on my Areca controller (r.i.p.) that mode always created the biggest havoc
with ZFS/Opensolaris, i

Thank you for the corrections.
Also I forgot about using an SSD to assist. My bad. =)

I had a zpool of 3 X 1TB disks in raidz1 configuration. After installing a new
version of freenas (the OS is not important) I accidentally created a new zpool
over the existing one (it took just few seconds). Now I can see the empty
raidz1 (only few KB occupied). I didn't write any file to disk

And for the same zpool, the same issue observed when I tried to import this
zpool, and I encountered core dump also:
bash-3.00# zpool import ttt
internal error: Value too large for defined data type
Abort (core dumped)
bash-3
After attempting unsuccessfully to replace a failed drive in a 10 drive raidz2
array and reading as many forum entries as I could find I followed a suggestion
to export and import the pool.
In another attempt to import the pool I reinstalled the OS, but I have so far
