Hi,
Something is unclear in Solaris containers and Solaris ZFS docs
Two extracts :

Consider the following interactions when working with ZFS on a system with
Solaris zones installed:

Yes, that was _supposed_ to be

I like the idea, I really do, but it will be s expensive because of
ZFS' COW model. Not only file removal or truncation will call bleaching,

your data is important enough, you probably don't care
Frank Hofmann wrote:
And this kind of deep bleaching would also break if you use snapshots
- how do you reliably bleach if you need to keep the all of the old data
around ? You only could do so once the last snapshot is gone. Kind of
defeating the idea - automatic but delayed indefinitely till

There are several and this is about providing functionality so that

SJ I understand that ZFS gives you more error correction when using
SJ two LUNS from a SAN. But, does it provide you with less features
SJ than UFS does on one LUN from a SAN (i.e is it less stable).

The installation software does not yet understand
ZFS, and is not able to
upgrade a Solaris 10 system with a ZFS root file
system. Further, it is not
able to upgrade a Solaris 10 system with a non-global

Thanks Jeff.
One other area where is is useful is when you are in a jurisdiction
where a court order may require you to produce your encryption keys -
yes such jurisdictions exist and I don't want to debate the human
rights angle or social engineering aspects of this just state that it
exists.

Except of course that snapshots clones will surely be a nicer
way of recovering from adverse administrative events...
and make live upgrade and patching so much
At a minimum use the QLA2200 HBAs. As they were only recently EOLd. If you
tried to give me a QLA2100 series HBA, I would not accept it. It's 5
generations behind the current FC hardware. At least with a QLA2200 HBA you
will get qlc support and MPXIO.

AFAIK there are Sata controllers from Areca and HP where you have a native
Solaris 10 driver. I don´ t have them, but the Areca controller had a very
positive test in a German computer magazine.

Hi Naveen,
I believe the newer LSI cards work pretty well with Solaris.

Thanks for the Areca recommendation. My vendor was initially proposing the
Areca as well. I had thought that the Supermicro MV8 would be better since two
cards total only $200 vs the $700 for a 12-port Areca card, and thought that
the MV8 would have good support since Thumper uses the Marvell

I've tested a box running two Marvell based 8-port controllers (which has
been running great on Update 2) on the solaris
So are there any PCI-Express cards based on the Marvell chipset? And/or
is there something with native SATA support that is the same general
specifications (8 ports, non-raid) just based on a different chipset but
using a PCI-E interface?
