I am currently trying to get two of these things running Illumian. I don't have any particular performance requirements, so I'm thinking of using some sort of supported hypervisor, (either RHEL and KVM or VMware ESXi) to get around the driver support issues, and passing the disks through to an Illumian guest.
The H310 does indeed support pass-through (the non-raid mode), but one thing to keep in mind is that I was only able to configure a single boot disk. I configured the rear two drives into a hardware raid 1 and set the virtual disk as the boot disk so that I can still boot the system if an OS disk fails. Once Illumos is better supported on the R720 and the PERC H310, I plan to get rid of the hypervisor silliness and run Illumos on bare metal. -Greg Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
