Unless there's some edge case that I'm not thinking of, adding a

a match. An unescaped period in an RE matches any character,
including a period. An escaped period matches only a period.


I have confirmed this. I did add the backslash but procmail is still not
matching.


Adding the backslash _does_ better represent what the OP wants

REs to figure out what _is_ causing it not to match.)


True and thus I'll leave the backslash. However I have no idea what _is_

I think it is the dash. Try to escape it like so:

Subject: zfs enabled freebsd requires root zfs partition?



I'm new to both FreeBSD and ZFS and need some guidance. The only way I could
get zfs to work was by installing FreeBSD directly on a freebsd-ZFS file
system, which isn't supported by default by sysinstall. I had to run the
zfsinstall.sh script which creates the freebsd-ZFS file system and compiles
freeBSD.

Whenever If I used the standard install (UFS file system), I would always
get an unsupported file system error whenever I tried to kldload zfs.ko.

Is there away to install FreeBSD on the standard UFS file system and then
use the other disks on the server for ZFS?

I would appreciate any hints.

Thanks,
Gil Vidals

I have two LAN segments with a FreeBSD server on each.

Server A is 10.0.0.254
Server B is 192.168.0.102

I setup server A has two drives and I setup a share on drive #2 to be shared 
via NFS with the both networks. I also made a symlink on drive #2 to a folder 
on drive #1

On server B I can nfs_mount the share on server A and see the symlink. But when 
I try to access the files in the symlink it shows the link is broken, In other 
words no files show up.

On server A I can see the files in the symlink folder just fine.


This is expected NFS behaviour:  NFS exports filesystems starting
at a given (exported) mount point.

While there are many reasons for this, think about the security
issues if a user on B could create a symlink on your exported
volume (because the origin of the symlink will make no difference
to the server) to access any file anywhere on A.

If you want both disks 1 and 2 visible, the standard solution
is to export and mount both disks on B.  If the paths (absolute
is easiest, but relative can be made to work) are consistent
between A and the mounted image of A's filesystems on B, then
your symlinks will work -- that is, if you have this kind of
/etc/fstab entry, mounting /disk1 on A to /disk1 on B:

A:/disk1/somedir/disk1/somedir
A:/disk2/disk2

then a symlink in /disk1/somedir/link pointing to /disk1/something
will work just fine.

FreeBSD vendors

2010-09-07 Thread Daniel Willacy
Hi,

I have a client who uses FreeBSD on IBM X3550 M3 Servers (x86). The problem is 
that they are big supporters of both IBM and FreeBSD but they do not seem to 
work too well together. They are reporting problems at the RAID and hence, a 
massive slow down in performance.

I notice from your vendor list that IBM is not mentioned. Is this because your 
product hasn't been tested with IBM or are there any case studies or models 
that you could provide to me to show that FreeBSD can work on certain IBM 
servers.

Any advice or information would be greatly received.

Need supported SAS controller

2010-09-07 Thread Torbjorn Granlund
Is the any PCIe SAS controller that is supported by FreeBSD 8.1 that I
can purchase today?  The controller should preferably be low-profile.
RAID is not needed since I have just one disk, but if only RAID
controllers are available, I can live with that.

FreeBSD supports several controllers, but most of them seems old and
impossible to purchase today.

I have tried a new Adaptec 2405 but I have serious issues with data inte-
grity (the beginning of the virtualised disk does not read back the same
data as just written).  It is unknown if this is a problem with the cont-
roller or with the FreeBSD drivers.  Due to technical and administrative
experiences with Adaptec during this process, no other Adaptec controller
will be considered, see http://gmplib.org/~tege/adaptec.html.

The Supermicro controllers listed by FreeBSD as supported seem to be
rebranded Adaptec controllers, and they are therefore also disqualified.

The LSI controllers FreeBSD list as supported at
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.1R/hardware.html (with the mpt driver)
are no longer in production, as far as I can tell.  My hope is that some
currently produced LSI controllers actually work with FreeBSD 8.1.

Please help if you know something about that.

I have never seen a non-RAID SAS controller in my life: notice I'm not

That said, I'm using:

rev=0x04 hdr=0x00

vendor = 'LSI Logic (Was: Symbios Logic, NCR)'
device = 'SAS1078 PCI-X Fusion-MPT SAS'
class  = mass storage
subclass   = RAID


I've also used a couple of HPs in the past: I think it was a P400, but I 
don't have access to those machines any more.



Never had any problems with any of these; only note: I could not get 
access to HP management via FreeBSD, but things might possibly have 
changed since then.


N.B. I'm using 7.x, but I see no reason why 8.1 should be more troublesome.

Well that error makes a lot more sense, but doesn't pinpoint the exact
cause.

I don't know what this is:  zfsinstall.sh

It's not part of the base system.  Without more info, my best guess is that
your zfs module is out of sync with your kernel.  Two things you can do,
install a clean FreeBSD, and just use zfs from there.  It works.

Or resync the kernel/modules by rebuilding them.

Make sure your src tree is in sync, eg csup with RELENG_8_1 or whatever
you're trying to run
Follow these instructions:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html

Just rebuild with GENERIC to make sure no other vars are interfering.  That
means don't use the KERNCONF=MYKERNEL part of the line or at least set it to
GENERIC.

Once you have installed the new kernel, reboot and kldload zfs should work.

Exporting ZFS Pool

2010-09-07 Thread Pete Erickson
I'm relatively new to ZFS and have been playing around with different  
file-backed set ups to determine how I will eventually configure my  
pools. I've recently come across a problem with exporting a pool, but  
I'm not sure if it's a bug or just my poor understanding of ZFS. I  
create a simple pool using 2 128MB files. After exporting the pool, I  
am unable to import it and the pool is not found by the zpool command.  
Any advise would be appreciated. I'm currently running 8.1 STABLE.


ratchet# dd if=/dev/zero of=/disk1.dd bs=1m count=128
128+0 records in
128+0 records out
134217728 bytes transferred in 2.852547 secs (47051891 bytes/sec)
ratchet# dd if=/dev/zero of=disk2.dd bs=1m count=128
128+0 records in
128+0 records out
134217728 bytes transferred in 2.740976 secs (48967128 bytes/sec)
ratchet# zpool create pool /usr/tmp/disk1.dd /usr/tmp/disk2.dd
ratchet# zpool list

  /usr/tmp/disk2.dd  ONLINE   0 0 0

errors: No known data errors
ratchet# zpool export pool
ratchet# zpool import -d .

If I then attempt to recreate the pool, I get an error indicating that  
one of the files is a part of an exported pool.


ratchet# zpool create z /usr/tmp/disk1.dd /usr/tmp/disk2.dd
invalid vdev specification
use '-f' to override the following errors:
/usr/tmp/disk1.dd is part of exported pool 'pool'

Re: Need supported SAS controller

 RAID is not needed since I have just one disk, but if only RAID
 controllers are available, I can live with that.
 
 I have never seen a non-RAID SAS controller in my life: notice I'm not
 saying mean they don't exist, but everyone I used was RAID capable.

I'm currently using a Perc5i PCIe 2-port SAS controller in production on
7.2-RELEASE amd64. It's whatever came with the Dell PowerEdge 1950 I'm
running, and it's been rock-solid; no RAID capabilities at all, but
hosts a gmirror just fine. It identifies as such:

m...@pci0:2:8:0:class=0x01 card=0x1f061028 chip=0x00541000
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'LSI Logic (Was: Symbios Logic, NCR)'
device = 'SAS 3000 series, 8-port with 1068 -StorPort'
class  = mass storage
subclass   = SCSI
