    Disks (I think) stop responding randomly

    Hello everyone, If this is the wrong forum, I apologize, please move the thread. I think it is the best forum for this issue. TL:DR: Randomly it seems IO just stops. The machine gets insanely sluggish, new apps won't start or will start VERY slow but some (not all) existing apps will keep...

    ZFS: am I losing a disk or 3?

    a little update on this. I started using a PCIe network adapter (Intel pro) instead of the on-board Intel NIC's that supermicro provides and so far I have not had any problems. Oddly enough it is the same driver and even the same chipset (except one is on-board while the other is a physical...

    ZFS: am I losing a disk or 3?

    Hi Billy_nnn, Thank you for the reply. Yes what I mean by streaming is that I have 2 machines that have XBMC mapped to a datashare on the Nexenta server. I will be watching a show and suddenly it will just stop. Now and again it resumes after about 5 minutes but most of the time I have...

    ZFS: am I losing a disk or 3?

    Good Day everyone, Fairly new to ZFS and I am sort of confused about this issue. The main problem is when I am streaming TV to my media center it just cuts out, I tried multiple media center machines and same issue so I do have it narrowed down to the fileserver. I started poking around...

    ZFS errors and timeouts and CIFS problems

    Hello everyone, I built a Nexentastor Community Edition server and it has been running quite well until recently. I started noticing when using Cifs (mainly when using XBMC to watch TV or when streaming on my desktop with zoom player) it pauses/stops and I lose the connection to the server...

    NexentaStor build sanity check

    Good point, I did not think of that at all! It is a shame one can't buy the E3-1220L that would of been perfect! I really did not want to spend nearly $300 on a cpu for this build.

    NexentaStor build sanity check

    Too much money for a system that sits idle 99% of the time and shares out a few files.

    NexentaStor build sanity check

    Hello Everyone! I am building a new ZFS fileserver (using a few existing parts from my current server) and just want to make sure these are all parts that will work nicely with ZFS. To answer the questions: 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc...

    ZFS Speed Problem

    No it is not. State your facts/sources if you think 35MB/s is good speed using gigabit and a fairly decent machine. I have a Core2Duo Nexentastore machine with 4GB of ram, nothing fancy at all and using 6x disks in a RAIDz I can do 95-105MB/s depending which machine I am using to pull the...

    ZFS Speed Problem

    What kind of CPU is your NAS running? What Speed of ECC RAM? In your NAS what are the drives hooked up to? PCI controller? PCIE? onboard? That D-Link is regular PCI is it not? I am not super technical when it comes to interfaces but I do know PCI has it's limits especially if shared with...

    ZFS Speed Problem

    mo/s is French for MB/s :) Even with overhead nfs and smb should still be a bit more no? and iperf which is cpu/ram only should be close to maxing out the network cards? With iperf using a 128k or 258k window I get 879MB/s average, My Nexenta box is a core2duo E6600 with 4GB of memory and the...
