OK cool. One last question. Reading the Admin Guid for ZFS, it says:
[i]"A more complex conceptual RAID-Z configuration would look similar to the following: raidz c1t0d0 c2t0d0 c3t0d0 c4t0d0 c5t0d0 c6t0d0 c7t0d0 raidz c8t0d0 c9t0d0 c10t0d0 c11t0d0 c12t0d0 c13t0d0 c14t0d0 If you are creating a RAID-Z configuration with many disks, as in this example, a RAID-Z configuration with 14 disks is better split into a two 7-disk groupings. RAID-Z configurations with single-digit groupings of disks should perform better"[/i] This is relevant as my final setup was planned to be 15 disks, so only one more than the example. So, do I drop one disk and go with 2 7 drive vdevs, or stick to 3 5 drive vdevs. Also, does anyone have anything to add re the security of CIFS when used with Windows clients? Thanks again guys, and gals... -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
