I'm wondering if I can get all the benefits of EVMS and LVM with ZFS
I'm planing on ZFS with a Raid-Z
1.- Can I expand volumes like I do with LVM ?
You simply add more LUNs to a pool. The filesystems on the pool can grow
until the size of the pool is exceeded.
There are plans afoot to allow for the growing of LUNs already in the pool.
2.- Is there a central cosole (like EVMS) to do all the managment ?
There is a web gui available, yes.
3.- How do I monitor the hard drives ?
Monitor them for what? This is probably an array specific question.
4.- If there is a drive failure do the rebuilt happens automatically or
I have to issue commands for it to occur ?
I think this one has been answered before. Did you check the mailing
list archives?
5.- What's the storage efficiency of Raid-Z ?
I think this one has been answered before. Did you check the mailing
list archives?
