Bob, thank you very much for your detailed answer. Indeed, Resilvering could be a very difficult situation in such a big storage pool. I could solve this issue by building a pool for each backend node. But then I run into the same problems I have at this moment: The disk space of my server is heavily varying. A fixed size pool could not provide enough space or it provides much more space than is needed in one moment. One big storage pool is very interesting because it does not run out of space than several dedicated storage pools. With a JOBOD I will run into the same problems which I have at this moment if the number of server is growing, won’t I?
Is there some other way you would recommend in order to solve this problem (one big storage pool; several backup nodes)? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
