Thx for the honest update. I remember asking Nexenta if clustering was as easy to setup as it is with Microsoft Failover clustering, they said yes....most everyone else says otherwise

stevebaynet, what's been happenin'? hope all is well (aside from being busy at work) How is the Nexenta project coming along? Any progress with clustering?

Looking for a pair of Intel Xeon E5-2650 or 2620 Chk my feedback (b6rs4) on HeatWare or ebay

I'm sure. This is a non prime account I haven't used in over 6+ months since I joined Prime. (I joined right before the Kindle Fire was released)

I think so, to get the "Promotion Applied $10" With Prime, I only got the $58 coupon

After posting the 209.99 deal here, I logged in with my non-Prime account & found this deal

hehe, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to drop that low. At $190/200'ish, this drive is a "steal"

Samsung 830 256GB $58 savings coupon

NIB & unused Intel S5520HCT LGA 1366 Motherboard + AXX4SASMOD $360 (shipping TBD based on zipcode) HeatWare & ebay handle is b6rs4

No, I have not. I'm sure they are nice In the 30" size, I don't expect them to be $400+ either

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder (or something like that) I've had 2x Dell 3007 for almost 4 yrs, I upgraded from 2407FP. Best monitors I've ever owned To each his/her own. If you're happy with your sub $400 Korean monitor, more power to you. I love my Dells & nobody can change...

No workie, just tried it

PM sent

packetboy, any updates? how has the SAS6160 been performing?

How is the "clustering" coming along? Did you receive your ZIL device (OCZ Talos)?

That's what we call: Demand + Supply influenced by some "media propaganda" = $$$$ price hike = lots of "extra" profit for HDD manufacturers

For all you ZFS lovers https://blogs.oracle.com/si/entry/7420_spec_sfs_torches_netapp ps, found this on twitter via @geekandi

How are you guys measuring speeds? I ask because I'd like to follow the same procedure so we can compare "apples to apples"

just got a twitter reply from @nexenta "no need to short stroke, until about 80% everything is sequential"

Does it even make sense to "OP" (aka Short Stroke) the SSDs used for ZIL & L2ARC? See p.5 http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01580706/c01580706.pdf http://www.matrix44.net/cms/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/intel_over_provisioning.pdf

stevebaynet, any updates on your performance testing?

Yep, that makes sense. Tx for the info Just realized my design has a slight flaw, 2 of my jbods are 6 gig drives the 3rd jbod has 3 gig drives

But you don't really want different drive types in the same pool?

Noob ZFS question (I was playing around in NMV) let's say you have 1 head + 2 JBODs JBOD1: 8 x 1TB SAS 2.5" JBOD2: 8 x 2TB SAS 3.5" Since we have 2 different types of drives, I assume (best practice) they should not be in the same volume? With my "noob" thinking, I convinced myself that you...

stevebaynet's the man, he can set u straight on the slotmap issue Zeus DRAM, SLC or MLC SSD? wich one? Who is your supplier?

Thx for the heads up btw, did you shoot the front & rear pics? I went looking on the SM site to see if they had some chassis images

How many images did you end up uploading? I assume just the ..2602yrs.jpg You just used gimp to crop & add the labels? How many files did you have to create & upload? 2. The empty one + the image file In Nexenta, how do you upload a file? (sorry, I'm a Windows guy)

You should definitely do that blog. Like you mentioned earlier, lack of easily accessible info really "hurts" projects like the Nexenta's etc, especially those that lack the big marketing $$$ (like the big iron companies)

stevebaynet, I just wanted to say thx for posting/sharing this thread. I re-read the whole thing again I hope I haven't cluttered this thread with some of my sideways questions & pics

I believe Enterprise warranty is now 3 years, no more 5

I re-read the KB, all is good!

When you IT flashed the onboard LSI, was Step 4 (see link) necessary? http://kb.lsi.com/Attachment952.aspx

That forum design/layout looks feels like something from the '60's

btw, there is a new hardware section http://nexentastor.org/projects/site/boards/9

stevebaynet, Your ZIL and L2ARC; are they attached to motherboard SAS controller + installed in the head unit or attached to 9205 + installed in the JBOD?
