Sorry for the long post but I know trying to decide on hardware often want to see details about what people are using.

I have the following AS-2022G-URF machine running OpenGaryIndiana[1] that I am starting to use.

I successfully transferred a deduped zpool with 1.x TB of files and 60 or so zfs filesystems using mbuffer from an old 134 system with 6 drives - it ran at about 50MB/s or slightly more for much of the process and mbuffer worked great.

I am wondering what commands people would recommend running to retrieve/save config info, logs, history, etc to document and save important files _before_ any problems arise. I am planning 'zfs history' and 'zpool history' but looking for ideas. Also, ideas for light testing/benchmarking would be great but I don't think I can erase/destroy the zpools for testing.

One one thing that went wrong so far that I know about - I seem to have munged one of the SSDs by running format on it - it asked for cyl/track/sect info and then barfed. I won't look at SSDs using format ever again. And the 2TB drives seem somewhat slow...

I am thinking about trying napp-it - anyone using it with OpenIndiana?

Thanks in advance.

with:
* 1 x AMD 6172 12 core processor
* 16 GB Ram
* 2 x WD1002FAEX connected to motherboard amd-ahci
      for rpool
* 2 x some Kingston SSDs connected to motherboard
      for arc/zil maybe

* 1 LSI LSI00194
  connected via 2 8087 cables to the internal drive bays with:
  * 8 x WD1002FAEX-0-1D05 - 1 TB WDC Black drives

2 x Areca ARC-1222X (with battery)
  each connected to a Tekram R08 2U 8 Bay case
  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816208017
  these are discontinued, I not sure why, the guy at Tekram said they were
  samples or a trial or something but they were about $250 each
  * 8 x WDC-WD2001FASS-00W2B  2 TB WDC Black drives
  the other:
  * 8 x Samsung F3 1 TB - I'll post those later when I have it hooked up
