Tried something like that in the past: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&m=144217941801350&w=2 It worked kind of OK except the performance. The problem is that data layout makes read op. -> 2x read op. and write op. -> read op. + 2x write op. which is not the speed winner. Caching of checks

softraid(4) RAID1 tools or experimental patches for consistency checking

2020-01-12 Thread Constantine A. Murenin
Dear misc@, I'm curious if anyone has any sort of tools / patches to verify the consistency of softraid(4) RAID1 volumes? If one adds a new disc (i.e. chunk) to a volume with the RAID1 discipline, the resilvering process of softraid(4) will read data from one of the existing discs, and write

Morning! What I have not seen mentioned: dhcpd.conf -> "deny unknown-clients;" Beware if you use static leases as already mentioned, then dhcpd does *not* feed the IPs to it's PF tables when it hands the IP out to the client. If you do: host foobar { hardware ethernet a8:34:6a:e1:1d:1c; } wit
