    Help with Poor ZFS Performance

    I only have 4GBs of RAM in this system. I ran bonnie++ in Solaris 11.1 and OI 151a7 but I'm not sure how to interpret the results: SunOS opensolaris 5.11 11.1 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris Version 1.03d ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random-...

    Help with Poor ZFS Performance

    Sorry, I had to go out of town for a few days. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Are there any particular logs I can look out or diagnostics I can run to figure out what is causing the ZFS slowness?

    It's running on bare metal, not virtual.

    Help with Poor ZFS Performance

    I posted this earlier and still haven't been able to figure out what is causing the poor ZFS performance in Solaris 11 11/11 and Solaris 11.1 -- does anyone have any ideas? I recently upgraded from OpenSolaris SNV134 to Solaris 11.1. I also upgraded to OpenIndiana 151a7. I noticed a huge...

    RAIDZ3 Performance: OpenSolaris vs Solaris 11 Exp vs Solaris 11 11/11 vs Solaris 11.1

    I recently upgraded from OpenSolaris SNV134 to Solaris 11.1. I also upgraded to OpenIndiana 151a7. I noticed a huge performance drop on my RAIDZ3 (160GB * 11 drives) pool. Has anyone else run into this? What could be the cause? Is there anything I can do or some place I can look to figure out...

    What board have you successfully flashed an M1015 in?

    Daemonfly, are you able to flash the m1015 in the GA-990FXA-UD3? I'm trying to decide if I should replace my e5200 + Abit IP35 Pro with a 1045t + GA-990FXA-UD3 (also hoping to upgrade to ECC RAM). My m1015 came pre-flashed to IT mode - 9211 and currently works OK but I don't think I could...

    Need help with my new IBM M1015

    This goes back to my original question. Since I want to use OI and ZFS, do I even have a chance of having the m1015 work in any of my motherboards? Would I be able to flash the m1015 to IT mode or would I have to get another motherboard?

    Need help with my new IBM M1015

    I planned on using OpenIndiana w/ ZFS. From reading other people's experience it seems like some have had problems with motherboards recognizing a stock m1015 but once it was flashed to IT mode on another more accommodating motherboard they could use it on their original motherboard OK.

    Need help with my new IBM M1015

    I'm going to ask a question about the m1015 here instead of opening a new thread, I hope someone sees it. I'm trying to decide on whether I should get an m1015 or not. There seem to be a ton of posts saying it is incompatible with a host of motherboards for flashing and even after flashing. I...

    ZFS: RAID-Z3 (raidz3) Recommended Drive Configuration

    john4200 is right; I was planning on having an 11 drive RAIDZ-3 setup as my repository/streaming server of HD home videos. Probably no more than two clients ever accessing it at a time. I was all set to go with an 11 drive RAIDZ-3 until I read sub.mesa's opinion stating that 16KiB writes...

    ZFS: RAID-Z3 (raidz3) Recommended Drive Configuration

    Thanks danswartz. The personal problem I have with RAID10 is that I can't lose any three drives and still have my data be intact. I'm a little paranoid and would really like to have the ability to lose any three drives. Also, as far as probablity of a dual failure in the same mirror, I...

    ZFS: RAID-Z3 (raidz3) Recommended Drive Configuration

    sub.mesa has posted several times on his theories of record size vs stripe size and their relationship to performance of ZFS RAID pools. I'm wondering if anyone has taken his ideas into account when designing their RAID-Z3 configurations...

    AOC-USAS2-L8E

    Thanks Kiwwiaq, I hadn't thought of extending the UIO bracket over to the next slot. That seems cheaper. The mouser site shows $6 shipping for me in the US, still extremely steep for such a cheap piece, if I end up needing to purchase a bracket I'll definitely have to look elsewhere...

    AOC-USAS2-L8E

    In this post someone mentioned they found a replacement bracket for the SuperMicro AOC-USAS-L8i: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=128819 The bracket is a PCI replacement for the UIO bracket the card comes with...
