Just wondering if anyone has gotten a NVMe-based PCIe SSD working with OmniOS?
I just got an Intel SSD 750 PCIe drive, and it is not detected in my
Dell T710 server with the "format" command, so it's not obvious how to
create a zpool on it.
Some recent comments suggest that it is not easy to make
Not sure if this is the same issue, but I had the same behavior with
Windows 8.1 on my laptop; everything has been fine for many months
with clients running Win 7, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS,
OpenIndiana and XStreamOS (Illumos-based). But the Win 8.1 laptop
causes NFSv4 to lock up, and (obv
It would be convenient if pkgsrc were installed (not that it's a huge
deal to install it, just one more thing to do on a new install).
Obviously not all of the packages in that repository will work
perfectly, but certain things are very convenient and quick to
install.

Is there a particular reason that you want to do this? OmniOS takes up
just a few gigabytes, and boots just fine (for me) off a USB stick. It
makes to mirror that kind of configuration, and there are advantages
to having a dedicated boot drive (since the zpool will consume the
whole disk). So I don
I think I am being stupid again. tcpdump was not installed, so I
installed the pkgsrc packages (as described by Jonathan Perkin) for
2014Q1. I then get the following message; is there some option to
force it to install dependent packages, or did I miss something?

In OpenIndiana:

Is there anything else I should be doing? Again, these commands have
worked for years; only after introducing Win 8.1 has the NFS dropping
out been a problem. Thanks!

I have successfully installed and tested (informally) OmniOS stable on
a Precision Workstation 690, which has a bit of similar hardware to
the 490, but I didn't do any formal deployment. That machine works
quite well with Ubuntu Linux, which I have had running on it for
years.

Also, if I just have a few workstations I need to connect to an NFS

Yes, thanks for the tip.

compression to be IO-bound rather than CPU-bound,
but that is just a guess. And for ZFS streams, is there a reason to
prefer any one of these programs over another? Thanks!

I am doing a bunch of backups, and trying to organize data, and have two
questions:
1. Is there a better alternative, perhaps in the new package repositories,
for gzip-style compression that is multithreaded? I am doing the usualy
