Putting together a server for a friend's recording studio. He's planning to do audio editing off the server, so low latency is a big deal. My plan is to create a pool of two 8-drive RAIDZ2 vdevs and then accelerate them... But how?
OS if going to be latest OpenIndiana. I have a pair of 40GB SSDs (Crucial) with good write speeds and a pair of 64GB SSDs ( with good read speeds. I'd like to mirror the root pool. My initial thought was mirror the 40GB SSDs for the ZIL and partition the two 64s; mirror two slices for the rpool and two slices for the L2ARC. If there's a smarter way to do it, suggestions gratefully accepted. My current ZFS storage servers are all built around sustained reads/sustained writes, so tuning the ZIL and L2ARC are still outside my experience. -- Dave Pooser Manager of Information Services Alford Media Services, Inc. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
