Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Thanks guys. Yes indeed, the storage bug got me :). I'm backing up my data into crashplan encrypted with personal key as well, so I finally feel like my storage/data safety problem is reasonably under control :)
Yes, we can do everything napp-it does or doesn't from the command line. My point was that when a custom mount point is used, a lot of the zfs commands from napp-it stop working.
Well, it's been more than 2 years now so I figured I'd post some updates.
Changes from original system:
Case is now SM SC846TQ
Added another 8G ram.
Changed the HBA to 3x LSI SAS 9211-8i with the IT firmware
CPU changed to Intel E3-1220L because I was never sure if ECC worked on that i3 2100T...
I tried both based on a previous suggestion you had made. It looked like both Tty.so's are the same class anyway.
I'll double check tonight when I get home.
Just upgraded from OI to OmniOS and updated to the latest bleeding packages but napp-it isn't happy:
I tried both bleeding and stable omnios CGIs but neither works. Just wanted to share with _Gea. I'll see if I can fix it by pointing to the perl that came with from omni-perl.
I don't use SMB so not sure how much that adds to the cpu load but I doubt you will be able to fill a 10Gbe with 10 drives regardless of the CPU. Faster CPU is nice over the long run for sure, but you might be able to save $ from electricity to buy a new CPU after a few years :D.
What kind of load do you expect for you file server? I recently upgraded my home fileserver with that CPU and haven't seen problems. When I run a dd benchmark from napp-it, the cpu is still 82%-79% idle.
I have 6x 2TB 5400 green hdds in raidz2 and the write speed is a bit over 200MB/s with the...
FWIW, I've been running a i3-2100T on a SM mb(MBD-X9SCA-F-O) with ECC ram for almost a year now. Can't confirm either way if the ECC works or not, but the system works, currently with about 200 days of uptime.
Little update.
I had to update BIOS of the MB because I wasn't able to enter the setup. Every time I press Del during boot the system would just freeze... After updating to 1.00b all seems good.
I'm now with 6x 2T hitachis in raidz2. The system uses 55W when idle with the drives spinning...
Well, here they are:
I started with only 2x2TB for now to play with while the rest are coming (didn't want to order all from the same batch).
OpenIndiana:
Live USB boot did not work. Had to boot from live DVD. Installed the OS on a small USB hdd I had laying around and it worked well...
Danny Bui, thanks for that link on PSU reviews. It was very helpful. Now I see why the Neo Eco is a better PSU.
anterus, sorry about the mb not booting.I already placed the order with the supermicro MB. Stuff is arriving on Monday.
