[zfs-discuss] arc_no_grow is set to 1 and never set back to 0

2012-01-03 Thread Peter Radig
Hello. I have a Solaris 11/11 x86 box (which I migrated from SolEx 11/10 a couple of weeks ago). Without no obvious reason (at least for me), after an uptime of 1 to 2 days (observed 3 times now) Solaris sets arc_no_grow to 1 and then never sets it back to 0. ARC is being shrunk to less than 1

[zfs-discuss] Snapshot size as reported by the USED property

2010-08-30 Thread Peter Radig
I create snapshots on my datasets quite frequently. My understanding of the USED property of a snapshot is that it indicates the amount of data that was written to the dataset after the snapshot was taken. But now I'm seeing a snapshot with USED == 0 where there was definitely write activity aft

[zfs-discuss] File created with CIFS is not immediately deletable on local file system

2010-02-21 Thread Peter Radig
Box running osol_133 with smb/server enabled. I create a file on a Windows box that has a remote ZFS fs mounted. I go to the Solaris box and try to remove the file and get "permission denied" for up 30 sec. Than it works. A "sync" immediately before the rm seems to speed things up and rm is succ

[zfs-discuss] Impact of an enterprise class SSD on ZIL performance

2010-02-04 Thread Peter Radig
I was interested in the impact the type of an SSD has on the performance of the ZIL. So I did some benchmarking and just want to share the results. My test case is simply untarring the latest ON source (528 MB, 53k files) on an Linux system that has a ZFS file system mounted via NFS over gigabit
