[OmniOS-discuss] Xeon SOC with 10 GB net card

Hi to all Someone knows if the 10 GB network ports in this litle baby works with OmniOS ? http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/D/X10SDV-8C-TLN4F.cfm Yes, I am dreaming with a very compact pure SSD storage ;- )) With one 8 port SAS in the PCIe slot, plus 4 Sata 3 ports in the moth

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Zil Device

The 850 Pro should never be used as a log device. It does not have power fail protection of its ram cache. You might as well set sync=disabled and skip using a log device entirely because the 850 Pro is not protecting your last transactions in case of power failure. Only SSDs with power failure

The big concern I have is that we previously had a bunch of SSD’s that when they failed they hung and took down everything… From: OmniOS-discuss [mailto:omnios-discuss-boun...@lists.omniti.com] On Behalf Of Brogyányi József Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2015 09:37 AM To: omnios-discuss@lists.omniti.

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Zil Device

8GB zil on very active server and 100+GB ssd lasts many years. We have yet, after years of use of various SSDs, to have one fail from wear usage, and that's with fairly active NFS use. They usually fail for other reasons. We started with with Intel X series, which are only 32GB in size, and some of

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Zil Device

Hi Doug Can you write its life time? I don't trust any SSD but I've thinking for a while to use as a ZIL+L2ARC. Could you share with us your experiences? I would be interested in server usage. Thanks. 2015.07.15. 22:42 keltezéssel, Doug Hughes írta: We have been preferring commodity SSD like
