Thanks marsboer, this will definitely help me in the future
Very excited about a mdadm array in my NAS
Thanks for the advice, OMV's webui is very interesting, been playing with it in a VM to see if I like it, and to see how the array setup works
It seemed simple enough, but I'm finding...
Awesome, thanks, that clears up a lot of my questions
Would you recommend using Debian over Ubuntu?
When setting up the filesystem, would you need to specify the stride and stripe-width? Or are default settings ok?
I like the idea of setting up mdadm to email me when there is an array issue...
Hey all
So I'm building up another NAS and I was hoping someone could help with a recommendation of a software RAID implementation
At the moment, I'm running 2 HP N40L Micro-Servers with each running 4x2TB, using Snapraid for parity
Before, When I had just the one Micro-server, I was...
One drive I did the replacement under Nas4Free, the 2nd under ubuntu (as I couldn't import the array into Nas4Free, and managed to get ubuntu to accept the replace command, somehow)
I tried zpool clear tank, and the pool started resivering the 2 replaced drive "-_-, I'm at a loss with that...

action: Restore the file in question if...

pool: tank
state: DEGRADED
status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data
corruption. Applications may be affected.
action: Restore the file in question if possible. Otherwise restore the
entire pool from backup.
see...
Awesome, thanks
As long as they have a fairly decent package manager, I'm happy
I don't install much on my fileserver, but now and them I like to try things, and it makes life easier to achieve them through a manager, even if the stuff isn't 100% up to the actual current version
I'm actually...
Haha, guys, intense argument
Didn't realize that there was such a feud with FreeBSD, last I saw, people were praising it :P
Thanks for the advice
Well when I was looking at going with ZFS, the general opinion at the time seemed to point to FreeBSD, and I hadn't heard of OpenIndiana or...
Hey all
I'm rather stuck with a situation, and hope someone can help
Anyway, I built myself a media server with HP N36L microserver and 4 2TB EARX WD drives running in RaidZ
Originally I was using FreeBSD, but ended up messing something up and formatted it and moved to ubuntu (possibly...
