    Seagate Never Again

    Does does that benefit in ZFS, since I thought that feature only worked by talking with the RAID card?

    Seagate Never Again

    Thanks for the info ChristmasGT, hopefully Seagate will take the hint one of these days. Right now I'm looking at either the WD Reds or Greens. I'm kinda leaning towards the greens cause I don't run in RAID, just off an HBA. So I don't really benefit from their feature that stop the drive...

    Seagate Never Again

    Here is the data: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-drive-reliability-update-september-2014/ @drescherjm you are correct, but I think HGST is owned by WD. So we are both right ;)

    Seagate Never Again

    I'm RMAing my 3rd Seagate drive in 2 months. Had two zpools, one will a mix of WD's and seagates, and one with seagates only. Two drives in the seagate only pool failed, and now the only seagate in the WD pool is failing. Never again seagate, never again. Too bad I bought them before the...

    System Instability

    Ok, so I got the new drive yesterday. Took out the old one put the new one in. Unforunately "someone", who shall rename nameless, decided to reorganize the power cables and not plug-in one of the other drives in the vulnerable array. So now when I try to mount the pool I get: cannot...

    I could try disconnecting those devices (sdk and sdb), but I'm not sure if that will do anything.

    System Instability

    I've done tests as well with just a single DIMM. I'm leaning away from RAM because it would have caused problems before I added the new VDEV

    System Instability

    I recently added a second vdev to my system, 4x2TB disks to the machine. Unfortunately the system now will randomly freeze, usually after 3 or 4 days. It was running fine for about a year now. I'm not really sure where the issue could be. Anyway here are my specs: CPU: Core i7-3770...

    zpool to upgrade or not to upgrade

    I'm running two zpools with ZoL, one is version 28 and one is the most current. The message: status: The pool is formatted using a legacy on-disk format. The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable. is getting annoying. Is there any reason not to upgrade...

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    Played musical slots with the DRAM, found the bad sticks. Been running without reboots for 4 days. Without Dedup enabled, do I really need 1GB/1TB of memory for ZFS?

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    ESXi just doesn't wanna work for me. So disappointing. I really doubt a 48 hour memory test will help, but at this point I really don't know what else to test. I've run it without the M1015 and it still reboot or freezes randomly

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    I want to setup my current passthrough to just be a NFS share to all the VM's. I know it's possible, but I would like a little guidance from some docs :(

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    Are there any other solutions besides ESXi for virtualization where I can use my existing volumes on the M1015 (I don't wanna lose the data)? Like SmartOS?

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    Pretty sure this is a memory issue. When I run just two VM's the machine stays on fine, but once I start increasing the workload (aka RAM usage) with more VM's the machine eventually crashes. Originally I just did a single pass with MemTest so I'll be doing three passes later in the week.

    Memtest+ came back clean, so the memory is fine. Could this hyper-threading cause these issues? I have an Intel i7-3770

    ESXi 5.1 Host Freezing Issues

    Greeting, I recently built an ESXi whitebox, with a M1015 passthrough to a FreeNAS 8.3 VM. Unfortunately I've had the host start freezing up on me a lot, usually after either a few hours or a few days. The logs don't give me any obvious warnings, so at this point I'm kind of unsure on how...

    OpenSolaris derived ZFS NAS/ SAN (OmniOS, OpenIndiana, Solaris and napp-it)

    I recently decided to use napp-it with OpenIndian. Does it require that I flash my LSI SAS 2008 card to IT mode, or can I leave it as it is? Does OpenIndiana require additional drivers to support this card?
