Hi, I have a question regarding ZFS install on a system setup using an Intel Modular.
This system runs various flavor of FreeBSD and Linux using a shared pool (LUNs). These LUNs have been configured in RAID 6 using the internal controller (LSI logic). So from the OS point of view there is just a volume available. I know I should install a system using HBA and JBOD configuration - but unfortunately this is not an option for this server. What would you advise ? 1. Can I use an existing partition and setup ZFS on this partition using a standard Zpool (no RAID). 2. Should I use any other solution in order to setup this (like full ZFS install on disk using the entire pool with ZFS). 3. Should I avoid using ZFS since my system is not well tuned and It would be asking for trouble to use ZFS in these conditions. P.S. Stability is a must for this system - so I won't die if you answer "3" and tell me to keep on using UFS. Thanks. ________________________________________________ «?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ BSD - BSD - BSD - BSD - BSD - BSD - BSD - BSD - ________________________________________________ «?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§«?»¥«?»§ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ PGP ID --> 0x1BA3C2FD _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
