Software RAID performance? RAID-Z or vinum and RAID5?
I'm looking into moving a workstation from Ubuntu 10 to FreeBSD 7.1 (both amd64) and I'm a bit worried about storage -- specifically moving from mdadm, which performs very well for me. Current in Linux I use an mdadm RAID5 of 5 disks. After investigating FreeBSD storage options, RAID-Z sounds optimal[1]. I'd like to avoid levels 3 and 1 due to write bottlenecks[2], and level 0 for obvious reasons. Migrating from the existing mdadm is not an issue. I also do not plan to boot from the software array. Various docs/postings seem to indicate that using ZFS/RAID-Z under FreeBSD will destroy my computer, run over my cat, and bail out the investment banking industry. Will it really perform that poorly on a Phenom and 8GB RAM? Significantly more resources than mdadm in Linux? How about compared to RAID 5 under vinum? Thanks, ~Mike Manlief 1: The ability to read the array with the Linux FUSE ZFS implementation is very appealing; don't care about performance for such inter-op scenarios. Copy-on-write sounds awesome too. 2: ...and even level 5, now that I've learned of RAID-Z. ___ 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

atacontrol software or hardware raid
How can I detect if system has Software or hardware raid? Since in manual page: The atacontrol command can also be used to create purely software RAID arrays in systems that do NOT have a real hardware RAID card such as a Highpoint or Promise card. A common scenario is a 1U server such as the HP DL320 G4 or G5. These servers contain a SATA controller that has 2 channels that can contain 2 disks per channel, but the servers are wired to only place a single SATA drive on each channel. Or how can I find out if the hardware is real hardware RAID card? For example my system has following dmesg output: ad4: 152627MB Seagate ST3160815AS 4.AAB at ata2-master SATA300 ad6: 152627MB Seagate ST3160815AS 4.AAB at ata3-master SATA300 ar0: 152625MB Intel MatrixRAID RAID1 status: READY ar0: disk0 READY (master) using ad6 at ata3-master ar0: disk1 READY (mirror) using ad4 at ata2-master This system is an intel server with S3210SH server board in it. While installing system I see ad4,ad6 and ar0 as harddrives in sysinstall. I choose to install ar0. Additionally as far as I see ar0 is very susceptible to errors since a single CRC error can break the RAID consistency is that normal?

Help me select hardware and software options for very large server
[I decided to ask this question here as it overlaps -hardware, -current, and a couple other lists. I'd be glad to redirect the conversation to a list that's a better fit, if anyone would care to suggest one.] I'm in the process of planning the hardware and software for the second generation of my RAIDzilla file servers (see http://www.tmk.com/raidzilla for the current generation, in production for 4+ years). I expect that what I'm planning is probably off the scale in terms of processing and storage capacity, and I'd like to find out and address any issues before spending lots of money. Here's what I'm thinking of: o Chassis - CI Design SR316 (same model as current chassis, except i2c link between RAID controller and front panel o Motherboard - Intel S5000PSLSATAR o CPU - 2x Intel Xeon E5450 BX80574E5450P p Remote management - Intel Remote Management Module 2 - AXXRM2 o Memory - 16GB - 8x Kingston KVR667D2D4F5/2GI o RAID controller - 3Ware 9650SE-16ML w/ BBU-MODULE-04 o Drives - 16x 2TB drives [not mentioning manufacturer yet] o Cables - 4x multi-lane SATA cables o DVD-ROM drive o Auxiliary slot fan next to BBU card o Adaptec AHA-39160 (for Quantum Superloader 3 tape drive) So much for the hardware. On the software front: o FreeBSD 8.x? o amd64 architecture o MBR+UFS2 for operating system partitions (hard partition in controller) o GPT+ZFS for data partitions o Multiple 8TB data partitions (separate 8TB controller partitions or one big partition divided with GPT?) I looked at Large data storage in FreeBSD, but that seems to be a stale page from 2005 or so: http://www.freebsd.org/projects/bigdisk/index.html I'm pretty sure I need ZFS, since even with the 2TB partitions I have now, taking snapshots for dump or doing a fsck take approximately forever 8-) I'll be using the harware RAID 6 on the 3Ware controller, so I'd only be using ZFS to get filesystems larger than 2TB. I've been following the ZFS discussions on -current and -stable, and I think that while it isn't quite ready yet, it probably will be ready in a few months, being available around the same time I get this hardware asssembled. I recall reading that there will be an import of newer ZFS code in the near future. Similarly, the ports collection seems to be moving along nicely with amd64 support. I think this system may have the most storage ever configured on a FreeBSD system, and it is probably up near the top in terms of CPU and memory. Once I have it assembled I'd be glad to let any FreeBSD devel- opers test and stress it if that would help improve FreeBSD on that type of configuration. In the meantime, any suggestions regarding the hardware or software con- figuration would be welcomed.

I need a simple program that does this but couldn't able to find in ports tree As long as the machines you want to list are FreeBSD, UNIX or at least Linux, I'd suggest the following procedure (which will look old-fashioned, but it includes the chance to learn and practice): 1. run dmesg on the machines 2. grep / awk for the data fields you're interested in 3. create a CSV database 4. add the information that can't be obtained automatically (e. g. serial numers) 5. convert the database into any format you like (e. g. XML) or just run on the CSV datasets for summarizing / counting informations Yes, ugly suggestion, I know. But I think implementing this will need less time than searching for a program to do it for you based on trial error. :-) -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Software RAID options for a media server
Hi Guys, As my dream of a hardware based SCSI RAID root disk was so soundly dashed, I have been trying to figure out the most appropriate software implementation for a media server. Which sw RAID is best for streaming media? The options I have are: RAID1z, the redundancy is not my concern so much as performance over a network, but if the reduction in performance is negligible I may opt for it for fun. or RAID0 using gvinum, a far more complex option so I'd like to get an idea of its suitability. Otherwise if there are any other avenues please fill me in. I am at a loss on which way to go...

/dev/sd{a,b,c}3 is used as swap with each of equal priority.
/dev/sd{a,b,c}4 is in a RAID 5 array used as LVM.
/dev/sdd houses spare partitions for the compliment supra.
LVM is henceforth broke up according to proper Linux-FHS rules.
What are your thoughts on this?
It's definitely doable, see gmirror(8) for RAID1, gvinum(8) for RAID5.
Note that there's no separate entity that performs as LVM does - this
functionality is integrated in the system behaviour. You can use any
disk device or partition with any transformation (such as RAID,
encryption, iSCSI, etc.) without special preparation, partitioning or
labeling.

Planing hardware / software for a potential gro wfs…
Hello, I am planning to setup various services (including mail server, DNS server, hosting / web services) that could potentially grow in a very important way. As a resonable person - I would like to plan It for my actual needs (suiting the first year of exploitation = 1Tb) and after that eventually grow the file system using the most simple and less anoying solution… I wanted to have your point of view on the potential way to build the best hosting solution, knowing that most important things are: - Use (if possible) a 100% compatible FBSD solution. - Also be compatbile with other flavor of Unix (Linux,…). - Offer an expandable and simple to manage solution for storage. - Figure out a good solution for backup. Today I have 2 solutions in mind: 1. Use a blade system including 2 or 3 blades at first with an external attached storage device (whom type has to be defined); 2. Use various servers on their own and dispatch services accordingly on each server. 3. Another solution… I wanted to know: - If anyone has been using blade system with FreeBSD and what problem he has been facing? - If you have some specific advise regarding File System configuration or options? - What storage solution you find best and easiest to manage? Main point is: stability and sustainable. Thanks for your support.

Re: Right way to build package from non-port software
Catalin Miclaus wrote: Hello guys, What is the right way of building packages for non-ports applications? AFAIK 'make package' and ' pkg_create -b name' are based on ports installed packages. Is there any way of using same commands or additional scripts to achieve similar results? If it matters I'm trying to create packages from net-snmp-5.4.1 sources (needed for 64-bits counters feature) since ports version is based on 5.3.2. Suggestions are welcome. What I would do is: 1. check if there is a PR pending, with an update to the new version; 2. try to adapt the existing port to the new version. Doing 2. should not be much more complicated than building from source, see Porter's Handbook, mainly the ``quick porting'' if you want to do it this way. You do not really need the port infrastructure to use pkg_create, so it seems to be the right tool you were looking for.

In this situation, my team generally gets its hands dirty and bumps the port. Usually it's as easy as updating the PORTVERSION variable. Then attach the port diff to a PR and it'll be updated in the official ports tree fast. Unfortunately, net-snmp looks like a pretty complex port that isn't going to be quite so easy. You might consider pinging the maintainer about the new upstream version to see if there's any interest in bumping the port. You might also just be able to write your own port for the new version from scratch (it sounds like you just grabbed the source tarball and didn't apply all the FreeBSD patches). See the handbook [1]. Your best bet may be a combination of the two approaches.

RE: Re Mac Emulation / Centra Software
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of John.Andrwartha Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2008 7:42 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re Mac Emulation / Centra Software To clarify, Centra is a Windows based conferencing software package that uses a Virtual Java machine (client} to provide VoIP, Video, White board and tools. It is used in my context as a teaching medium. The school my children attend ( Distance Education Tasmania) use it extensively for class and face to face learning for there remote and distance students. There are 2 versions of the client software Win32 and Mac. I have tried running the Win32 under Wine but the Java VM bombs out as there are specific WinFunctions Unix JRE cant handle. Using the Mac OS client Under Free BSD 6.2S may be the answer. But how? I'm sorry, it's not possible. There's no emulator for MacOS X under FreeBSD or any of the BSD's for that matter. MacOS X may be partly built on FreeBSD but partly isn't good enough. However, according to the Saba Centra website, at least 2 years ago they announced they would be offering a Linux client: http://www.saba.com/news_events/press_releases/2006/news_092606_products.htm ...Saba also plans to enable users to participate in live sessions on mobile devices and support, in the same session, users attending on multiple platform clients, including iPods and PCs running on Mac or Linux operating environments... So I should think by now they would have something. You need to go back to your school's administrator and tell him to quit blowing you off and assuming that there is only a Mac and Windows client - get him to call Saba Centra tech support if he's that ignorant about the products he's supposedly administering. Likely you could run the Linux version under the FreeBSD Linuxulator. You also might consider buying a used Mac. You can get a used slot-loading iMac with DVD reader for about $100, and you can still buy Tiger for PowerPC direct from Apple for about $130. You just need to add ram, and flash BIOS to the correct version, then boot off the Tiger install DVD and off you go.

Is there any print enabled graphic design software?
I'm trying to get away from Adobe products (which are becoming rather agressive towards OSS), but I need to find a graphic software that can handle CMYK properly. I've tried GIMP (which has great tools) but it doesn't handle CMYK files- it only uses sRGB. I've tried Krita, but it doesn't work as well as GIMP tool wise, and I can't specify images sizes very well at all- it only works on pixel size, not inches or dpi/ppi. Therefore both are great for designing screen images, but not printed images. I even tried using GIMP to design (using CMYK colours here), and reformatting to a CMYK file with Krita. Problem with this is that the image size doesn't work once reformatted, plus I need to export to pdf which neither do and so printing to pdf means the final image size is an A4 and god knows what dpi. Anything better out there? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

full-screen multimedia jukebox software
I'm looking for suggestions for full-screen playback multimedia jukebox software. It should maintain a full-screen display while playing, showing the video when video is played and some kind of visualization when audio is played, without showing the software controls on the screen. The intent is to provide jukebox-like functionality on a FreeBSD platform on screens in a small venue (like a bar or nightclub, for instance) so that both audio-only music and music videos can be played. Open source software preferred, of course -- and most-preferred would be a BSD-like license -- though proprietary/closed-source software is not out of the question, as long as licensing costs are reasonable (aka cheap). -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] Kent Beck: I always knew that one day Smalltalk would replace Java.

I'm using software raid 1 on a 6.1 freebsd. This is a so called cold swap system, but I wonder how much it actually improves reliability. First off what should I be doing to detect error conditions and secondly what happens if the machine refuses to boot. I set this system up using Dru Lavigne's recipe, but I don't really understand what happens if one of the drives starts to fail.

Software to manage BIND 9 ?
Hi I'm searching for some good software that runs with FreeBSD to manage a primary DNS server with several domains. I've looked around, google for it, but was not able to have a precise idea so if some DNS admins that use one could tell me which are the most populars and usefuls it would be great :-) Thanks a lot in advance. -- Cordialement Frank Bonnet ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
