Hi everybody,
I am considering moving my data pool from a two disk (10krpm) mirror
layout to a three disk raidz-1. This is just a single user workstation
environment, where I mostly perform compile jobs. From past experiences
with raid5 I am a little bit reluctant to do so, as software raid5 has a

Hi,
I have a corrupt pool, which lives on a .vdi file of a VirtualBox. IIRC
the corruption (i.e. pool being not importable) was caused when I killed

This pool consists of a single vdev and I would really like to get

I think, the idea of having a separate configurable buffer program with a high

as building blocks to solve larger problems.

Hi,
I'm observing a change in the values returned by zpool_get_prop_int. In Solaris
10 update 5 this function returned the values for ZPOOL_PROP_CAPACITY in bytes,
but in update 6 (i.e. nv88?) it seems to be returning the value in kB.
Both Solaris versions were shipped with libzfs.so.2. So how

The latest version of mbuffer has a regression that can CORRUPT output

Hi,
I'd like to move a disk from one controller to another. This disk is
part of a mirror in a zfs pool. How can one do this without having to
export/import the pool or reboot the system?
I tried taking it offline and online again, but then zpool says the disk
is unavailable. Trying a zpool re

Hi everybody,
many people, like myself, tested the performance of the ZFS filesystem by doing
a "tar xf something.tar". Unfortunately, ZFS doesn't handle this workload
pretty well as all writes are being executed sequentially. So some people

Well, here it come
