Hi, I am running Solaris 10 ZFS and I do not have STMS multipathing enables. I have dual FC connections to storage using two ports on an Emulex HBA.
In the Solaris ZFS admin guide. It says that a ZFS file system monitors disks by their path and their device ID. If a disk is switched between controllers, ZFS will be able to pick up the disk on a secondary controller. I tested this theory by creating a zpool on the first controller and then I pulled the cable on the back of the server. the server took about 3-5 minutes to failover. But it did fail over!! My question is, can ZFS be configured to detect path changes quicker? I would like to configure ZFS to failover within a reasonable amount of time, like 1-2 seconds vs. 1-5 minutes. Thanks, ljs This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
