Re: [zfs-discuss] eon or nexentacore or opensolaris
Js.lists, My needs are: * Easy package management There is no pkgadd or ips included in EON. You can however add IPS and retrieve any of its available packages. * Easy upgrades EON is fairly easy to upgrade and the risk is low. All you have to do is preserve your previous image before upgrading. If the upgrade is not suitable go back to your previous image/release. You can preview the each new release by simply burning the image and booting, your current install would remain untouched. * Stability EON is sxce minimized so it is as stable as the matching snv_xxx release. You can also roll your own appliance to include only the bits you need * Ability to run Splunk Splunk not included but if there is an ips package or pkgadd version included on the snv dvd you could always add or include it if you roll your own appliance. Feel free to give EON a twirl. It will only cost you CD and the time to burn and boot it. Or if you have a VM you can test it there. You'll know reallly fast if it has enough of a framework for you to add the missing bits you need or not. Hope that helps. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Re: [zfs-discuss] Can't access my data
I seem to remember hostid being added to the zpool to solve a bug for the poor man's storage cluster. Trying doing a zdb -v ( you should see 4 copies and note if hostid is a field and if it differs from the current one) you can also try a zpool import -f -a I've seen cases where zfs mount -v -a fail but a zpool import -f -a works. I don't yet know why but I know zpool import searches /dev/dsk/ trees and my hunch is that zfs mount looks for a hostid match.

[zfs-discuss] ZFS and thin provisioning
Greets, Is anyone here using ZFS as a thin provisioned storage solution in production. If so could you kindly share your experiences and techniques, adding physical backing etc. thanks This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] ZFS webadmin
Does anyone know the minimum packages needed to make the ZFS webadmin work? So far It seems you need Java, SUNWjato, tomcat. thanks This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] Re: ZFS and thin provisioning
thanks Darren! I got led down the wrong path by following newfs. Now my other question is. How would you add raw storage to the vtank (virtual filesystem) as the usage approached the current underlying raw storage? Would you going forward just simply in the normal fashion ( i will try this when I can add another disk) zpool add vtank cXtXdX Is there a performance hit for having what seems to be a zfs on top a zpool on top a zpool?

[zfs-discuss] Re: ZFS limits on zpool snapshots
As far as I know the recalled on paper number of snapshots you can have in a filesystem is 2^48. This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] ZFS and thin provisioning
I found this article (http://www.cuddletech.com/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=729) but I have 2 questions. I am trying the steps on Opensolaris build 54. Since you create the filesystem with newfs, isn't that really a ufs filesystem running on top of zfs? Also I haven't been able to do anything in the normal fashion (ie zfs and zpool commands) with the thin provisioned created filesytem. Can't even mount it or online it. Was this just a demo of things to come or is thin provision ready for testing in zfs?
