Doeas anyone here have any opinions on ZFS? Does anyone host their /var/snd on a NAS? I’ve been looking at building a freenas system to use around the office, which use ZFS.
In the past I used two Rivendell servers, with one rsyncing to the other nightly, and backing up the db nightly. I also rsynced to a NAS appliance, so the data lived in three places.

I haven't had a real failure yet, but during testing (including simulated failure on the bench) it works pretty well. -Alan On 11/30/2019 6:47 PM, Rob Landry wrote: On Thu, 28 Nov 2019, Lorne Tyndale wrote: That's overall good advice, the only things I'd add is that I'm not a big fan of Raid 5, I prefer Raid 1 which provides as full 1:1 mirror for better redundancy and robustness. When hard disks cost a lot I could I don't like RAID at all. I prefer to build a second, fully functioning RD machine and have it mirror the first one. If I lose the first one, I switch to the backup. My problem with RAID boils down to the reality that most of the RD systems I build are for stations with no resident technical person. If a drive in a RAID array fails, no one will notice. I'll hear about it when a second drive fails and the station goes off the air.
