I have been leading the charge in my IT department to evaluate the Sun
Fire X45x0 as a commodity storage platform, in order to leverage
capacity and cost against our current NAS solution which is backed by
EMC Fiberchannel SAN. For our corporate environments, it would seem
like a single machine wo
Hello... Since there has been much discussion about zpool import failures

Richard,
Having read your blog regarding the copies feature, do you have an
opinion on whether mirroring or copies are better for a SAN situation?
It strikes me that since we're discussing SAN and not local physical
disk, that for a system needing 100GB of usable storage (size chosen
for roun
You don't have to do it all at once... ZFS will function fine with 1
large disk and 1 small disk in a mirror, it just means you will only
have the as much space as the smaller disk.
As of things now, if you have multiple vdevs in a pool and they are of
diverse capacities, the striping becomes less
I considered this as well, but that's the beauty of marrying ZFS with
a hotplug SATA backplane :)
I chose the to use the 5-in-3 hot-swap chassis in order to give me a
way to upgrade capacity in place, though the 4-in-3 would be as easy,
though with higher risk.
1. hot-plug a new 500GB SATA disk
oportion with your target total usable size and keep it simple and
to an even number of disks.
I still have yet to purchase the system due to my issues with finding
the right board with the right SATA controller. My desktop system at
home runs an nVidia 590a chipset on a Foxconn motherboard

I applied the Recommended Patch Cluster including 120012-14 to a U3

Try exporting the pool then import it. I have seen this after moving disks
between systems, and on a couple of occasions just rebooting.

Is it possible to force ZFS to "nicely" re-organize data inside a zpool
after a new root level vdev has been introduced?
e.g. Take a pool with 1 vdev consisting of a 2 disk mirror. Populate some
arbitrary files using about 50% of the capacity. Then add another 2
mirrored disks to the pool.

Hi Thomas,
The man page for zpool has:

Begins a scrub. The scrub examines all data in the
specified pools to verify that it checksums correctly.
For replicated (mirror or raidz) devices, ZFS automati-

The current version of Sun Cluster (3.1) has no support for ZFS. You
will be able to use ZFS as a failover filesystem with Sun Cluster 3.2
which will be released by the end of this year.
