Thank you for your quick answer. So I've installed the last OpenIndiana on a another boot disk and add napp-it but I can't import my pools because I've got an error : "Could not proceed due to an error. Please try again later or ask your sysadmin. Maybe a reboot after power-off may help...

Hi Gea, After long time I've finally started my old server that I build 10 years ago under Esxi/OpenIndiana and napp-it. Simple Nas with 3 pools I shared on SMB with all defaults (almost). My Server is composed with : ¤ SuperMicro X8SIL-F-O ¤ X3430 ¤ 16Gb DDR3 ECC ¤ 2 x IBM BR10i (LSI IT...

How can I share a ZFS storage under Open Indiana + Napp-it with a another virtual machine like Ubuntu on the same host ?

Thank you Gea for your quick reply, I appreciate :) I think to stand on RaidZ because of space and it's fast enough... Can I read temperatures of HDD in Napp-it ? And what about power economy of HDD (spin-off) ?

After two months, I have received all hardware and I use napp-it on Open Indiana under ESXi :cool: By the way, I've didn't easy choice between Napp-it and ZFSGuru ! :) So for a test, I've did a pool raidz with 4 x Samsung 2T. Are the benchmarks are good ?

My server : ¤ Norco 4220 ¤ Corsair GX 800W ¤ SuperMicro X8SIL-F ¤ X3430 ¤ 16Gb DDR3 ECC ¤ 3 x IBM BR10i ¤ Dell Perc 5i ( just for backup files) ¤ 1 x 160 Go 2.5" ¤ 8 x Western Digital Green 1To ¤ 4 x Samsung 2To

Hi everybody, I try to use my Perc 5/i under ESXi (VMDirectPath) with a VM FreeNAS but if it is recognized, I can't access it. I have an error in FreeNAS : Mar 12 11:58:28 freenas kernel: mfi0: <Dell PERC 5/i> mem 0xdc800000-0xdc80ffff,0xd9c20000-0xd9c3ffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci3...

Uptime ? What do you mean ?

Hello, I'm waiting for my orders and I'm wonder if I buy an another 2.5" 160Go for making a Raid1 OS ? It's better for ZFS, no ?

Yes, FreeNas doesn't support LSI 6Gbps SAS 2008 so you can't use it with this controller.

Thanks Gea & Omniscence ! I've read again the docs and I've found this : VMDirectPath limits VMDirectPath PCI/PCIe devices per host 8 VMDirectPath PCI/PCIe devices per virtual machine 4 So It's Okay for me :cool:

Hi, Any problems with a HBA and a SAS Expander under ESXi and ZFS ? Many thanks !

So I should buy an Sas expander if I can't use 3 devices on ESXi and keep a BR10i...

We can read smart but don't know for power management. However, there is one problem with 3 HBAs because EXSi can connect 2 devices maximum to a VM :(

I don't think, I should say that HT can even reduce in virtualization... But I never tried, I've bought too a X3430 :D Experts can confirmed :confused:
