Jim, that ACARD looks really nice, but out of the price range for a home server.
Edward, disabling ZIL might be ok, but let me characterize what my home server
does and tell me if disabling ZIL is ok.
My home OpenSolaris server is only used for storage. I have a separate linux
box that runs
I was thinking of adding an SDD ZIL to my pool, but then read this in the 'Best
Practice Guide'.

Prior to pool version 19, if you have an unmirrored log device that fails, your
whole pool is permanently lost.
Prior to pool version 19, mirroring the log device is highly recommended.

Thanks. I guess I am in a 'If it ain't broken, don't fix it' for my NFS setup.
Thanks,
Greg

To further this question, I have been searching for a while and can't find any
reference to the difference and benefits between zfs sharenfs and nfs share.
Currently I am using standard NFS I believe.
share -F nfs -o anon=0,sec=sys,rw=xenserver0:xenserver1 /files/VM

I am using OpenSolaris to host VM images over NFS for XenServer. I'm looking
for tips on what parameters can be set to help optimize my ZFS pool that holds
my VM images. I am using XenServer which is running the VMs from an NFS
storage on my OpenSolaris server. Are there parameters that I sho
So just to verify, from what you said and searching based on what you said, the
following is the commands I would use?
# zpool create newpool mirror c8d0 c9d0
# zfs create newpool/VM
# zfs snapshot files/v...@beforemigration
# zfs send files/v...@beforemigration | zfs receive newpool/VM
# zfs umo
I need to move a dataset to another zpool, but I need to keep the same mount
point. I have a zpool called files and datasets called mail, home and VM.
files
files/home
files/mail
files/VM
I want to move the files/VM to another zpool, but keep the same mount point.
What would be the right step
While playing with zfs at home on my DIY NAS, to try zfs and raidz, I setup 2
disks in a raidz pool. I started to think, in this scenario, does a 2 disk
raidz actually provide any protection? I don't know the under parts of parity
data in zfs. It didn't complain when I created it.
To that, i
Where is the original post? I was wondering what the steps would be to replace
with larger drives.
Thanks,
Greg
