Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Where is received filesystem
Harry, see below for comments. On 10/31/11 12:25 AM, Harry Putnam wrote: I've been tinkering with send/receive trying to understand how it all works. I've found what appears to my inexperienced eyes to be something of an anomaly. I successfully sent/received two filesystems: zp2/hosts zp2/hosts/reader I think I made some changes in a certain script, and maybe more than 1 since that move. So since the amount of data in zp2/hosts is nearly minuscule (5 scripts), I decided to just send/receive zp2/hosts on the old server to zp2/hosts_old, then at my leisure, investigate the differences. Inadvertently, I forgot to take off the -R flag and so used this command: zfs send -R zp2/hosts@111030_14:43:17_0 | ssh 192.168.1.101 zfs recv zp2/hosts_old Password: And received this warning: WARNING: could not send zp2/hosts/reader@111030_14:43:17_0 exist cannot mount '/hosts': directory is not empty I don't understand either part of that warning. I've already posted about the first part (reader@111030_14:43:17_0) so here just questioning the second part Why would `/hosts' need to be mounted? (I think it is about the receiving host.. right?) But what is really puzzling, is that newserver reports that data set to be present: zfs list -r zp2 NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT zp2 10.2G 193G31K /zp2 zp2/hosts 10.2G 193G 464K /hosts zp2/hosts/reader 10.2G 193G 4.29G /hosts/reader zp2/hosts_old 528K 193G 464K /hosts So has the content of zp2/hosts been overwritten? No, if you look at the mountpoints you'll see that zp2/hosts and zp2/hosts_old have the same mountpoint property. Thats why zfs can't mount zp2/hosts_old on /hosts Use the -u flag to recv to avoid the warning. Use 'zfs set mountpoint=/hosts_old zp2/hosts_old' to change the mountpoint after receiving. Than you'll find your data under /hosts_old.

Sorry for the lameo question but googling, the hits are apparently out of date and say things like /etc/hostname.NIC.. and I see nothing like that. The convention in a static IP configuration is to associate your hostname with the IP of the primary interface. So you put hostname in /etc/hostname.NIC file and associate that name to the IP in /etc/hosts. When using DHCP, that should supply a hostname. Otherwise /etc/nodename is used.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Sil3124 on oi151a
I'm seeing freezing issues doing 3-way mirrors across mainboard ICH10R (6 SATA 150/300 ports), and two SYBA SY-PEX-40008 cards (4 Port Internal SATA II ports). Is there an issue with the si3124 (Sil3124) driver in oi151a? I noticed a thread mentioning maybe something was broken from older versions of the driver. From http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openindiana.general/1323 : On Tuesday, December 14, 2010 07:58 AM, Chris Mosetick wrote: Recently, (about 2 months age) I had terribly experiences while testing a PCI and PCI-X cards that both used sil3124 chipsets. It seems that the driver is in serious need of an update to work with these cards properly. You can create pools and file systems, but don't try to move any data larger than 1gig over to the pool, as the machine will kernel panic, and go into a state of constant reboots until you remove the card and/or the disks connected to it. Oh, I wonder when they broke the driver then. It was okay for me ages ago...I last used it on a box with an ON version before 2008.05 though. Does anyone have any new insights into the si3124 driver? Could the issue be related to the fact that I am spanning my zpool across three different controllers, as opposed to dedicating each zpool to a specific device? Do I need to down-grade the driver for greater stability? Any insights as to where I could look to begin troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated. Especially as the system is freezing, where would I setup and check for a system dump? It would be nice to confirm it is actually the storage system at fault.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] fault-tolerant distributed file systems
I am looking for a fault-tolerant distributed file system to store medium sized files (150MB-4GB) which can scale across 100s of servers and keep N replicas of each file. MooseFS looks interesting, but I don't like the single point of failure of the master server. The development on that project seems to have stagnated a bit as well, though the forums are active. It does to replication logs to other servers, but I need to build an HA active/passive cluster. It seems there isn't anything on OI right now that can do clustering. GlusterFS does not have an OI client (just server support). What else are people using? thanks, Geoff ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

You say you need a file system, does that have to be a POSIX compatible file system (ie. mountable) or do you just need to store some files? If you just need to store some files, you could have a look at Hadoop or more specifically HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System), which consists of java daemons which can synchronize files around for you and manage all the redundancy. Libraries exists for all kinds of languages to hook into the system, so there should be something which could fit into your needs. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OCZ Deneva MLC SSD for ZIL
Hello Jason, The idea is that MLC SSD isn't advised for ZIL. SLC is a lot better because it can withstand writing to the diks 10x beter than MLC SSDs. The best solution however is a DRAM ZIL.
