HI, Just getting my feet wet with zfs. I set up a test system (Sunblade 1000, dual channel scsi card, disk array with 14x18GB 15K RPM SCSI disks) and was trying to write a large file (10 GB) to the array to see how it performed. I configured the raid using raidz.
During the write, I saw the disk access lights come on, but I noticed a peculiar behavior. The system would write to the disk, but then pause for a few seconds, then contineu, then pause for a few seconds. I saw the same behavior when I made a smaller raidz using 4x36 GB scsi drives in a different enclosure. Since I'm new to zfs, and realize that I'm probably missing something, I was hoping somebody might help shed some light on my problem. Thanks!
