Hi all, Is there a place where I can find ZFS best practices guide to use against DMX and a roadmap of ZFS ?
Also, the customer now looking at big ZFS installations in production. Would you guys happen to know or where I can find details of the numbers of current installations ? We are looking at akmost 10Terrabytes of data to be stored on DMX using ZFS (customer is not comfortable with the RaidZ solution in addition to their best practice of raiding at DMX levell) Any feedback, experiences and more importantly gotchas will be muchly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
