FWIW My N40L is configured with 4 x 2 TB. Each drive has a small (~100 GB) slice with the rest of the disk in a large slice. I have a 4 way mirror for rpool using the small slices and the rest is in a RAIDZ2 pool. Performance has been quite satisfactory. I configured it this way because yo

[OpenIndiana-discuss] PAM risk based authentication?

2015-12-10 Thread Stefan Müller-Wilken
Dear all, is there a way in OpenIndiana's PAM implementation to route through PAM modules based on environment conditions, a.k.a risk based authentication? More concretely I'd like to introduce a 2-factor PAM auth module when coming from certain IP ranges while staying with traditional Passw

I already use OI 151a9 on a HP N54L server since 2013 but I build it poorly, with 2x2TB in basic ZFS mirror and 1 very old 250GB for OI itself. To prevent myself from disaster I searched for a bargain and found something nicely second hand, so I bought an HP ML350G6 with the (infamous) P410i R

If you have the disk space, you might be as well creating a swap size of memory x 2. Old Solaris used to suggest you set it to memory x 4, but that was when memory was limited and expensive. On 10 December 2015 at 10:01, Fucai Liang (BLCT) wrote: > Thanks for your help! > > root@oi01:~# swap -s

how much swap do you have? KVM automatically allocates the same amount of swap as memory when you start an instance, if you don't have the free swap it won't work. Jon On 10 December 2015 at 04:04, Fucai Liang (BLCT) wrote: > > > Hello, guys: > > I has a server running oi_151.1.8, the server h
