Re: Ancient FreeBSD update path

Back everything up. Forget about upgrading you are making your life harder. Do a ZFS install with BE's then port your apps. It will be quicker less prone to errors and you will end up with a better system in the end. If the system is a bit of a rats nest, then this would be the ideal time to

I have a vague memory of these controllers doing something odd with the end of the volume but can't remember where or when, but I know I would generally avoid them. It looks like you are using them in jbod mode, but if you aren't do so. If you can reflash them to hba mode even better. If you are

Re: Boot partition size

Its worth noting you should also go for GPT layout and have a 100meg or so partition provisioned as well so you can do a uefi boot. Even if you arent going to use it right now. On 30 January 2017 at 03:41, Aristedes Maniatis wrote: > On 30/1/17 2:20pm, Freddie Cash wrote: > >

Does this just affect MBR layouts? If possible you might want to consider UEFI booting for both windows and other os's, It's probably safer as you dont need to plays with partitions and bootloaders. On 17 October 2016 at 13:11, Rostislav Krasny wrote: > On 17.10.2016

Well there is a deadlock situation there so you have to relax one of the conditions, for one time at least. Your best bet is to do a manual ntpdate against a fixed ip of known goodness. If you have a lot of machines you need to do this on, use ansible or similar to do the heavy lifting for you.

Dont forget alignment and ashift. You may also want to test compression as well. IF you have spare cpu cycles I would imagine the systems cpu will handle it faster than any onboard ssd compression. Benchmarking would be of use here though. On 9 February 2016 at 15:54, Patrick M. Hausen

Re: ZFS on labelled partitions (was: Re: LSI SAS2008 mps driver preferred firmware version)

From what i remember its a control thing. If you have another layer below zfs, be it software based or hardware based, zfs cant be sure what is going on, therefore cant guarantee anything. This is quite a big thing when it comes to data integrity which is a big reason to use zfs. I remember

Re: ZFS on labelled partitions

It was a control thing again, if you were using a partition another application could be using the drive on another partition, therefore zfs couldn't guarantee exclusive use of the disk so had to be more careful in the way it operated the drive. I think this meant I went into write through mode

Re: LSI SAS2008 mps driver preferred firmware version

I disagree, get the remote hands to copy the serial number to an easily visible location on the drive when its in the enclosure. Then label the drives with the serial number (or a compatible version of it). That way the label is tied to the drive, and you dont have to rely on the remote hands
