[zfs-discuss] zfs/zpools iscsi
Hello all, sorry if somebody already asked this or not. I was playing today with iSCSI and I was able to create zpool and then via iSCSI I can see it on two other hosts. I was courious if I could use zfs to have it shared on those two hosts but aparently I was unable to do it for obvious reasons. On my linuc oracle rac I was using ocfs which works just as I need it, does anyone know if such could be acheived with zfs maybe? maybe if not now but in the future? is there anything that I could do at this moment to be able to have my two other solaris clients see my zpool that I am presenting via iscsi to them both? Is there any solutions out there of this kind? Thanks so much for your help.

I was courious if I could use zfs to have it shared on those two hosts no, that`s not possible for now. but aparently I was unable to do it for obvious reasons. you will corrupt your data! On my linuc oracle rac I was using ocfs which works just as I need it yes, because ocfs is build for that. it`s a cluster filesystem - that`s what you need for this. another name is shared disk filesystem see wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_systems maybe if not now but in the future? it has been discussed, iirc. is there anything that I could do at this moment to be able to have my two other solaris clients see my zpool that I am presenting via iscsi to them both? zpool? i assume you mean zvol, correct ? Is there any solutions out there of this kind? i`m not that deep into solaris, but iirc there isn`t one for free. veritas is quite popular, but you need spend lots of bucks for this. maybe SAM-QFS ? regards roland This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

We have lots of customers using shared QFS with RAC. QFS is on the road to open source, too bad RAC isn't :-P http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/storage/ -- richard ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
