Interesting. I always wondered what version of Samba the RAIDZONE people are running. They haven't asked to be put on our vendors list to my knowledge. The version of Samba they are running is far more important. Ask them for the source code to see if any changes have been made or if it's a standard version and if so what version it is.
oplock break failures are commonly due to network hardware problems or sometimes client bugs. All of the known Samba bugs here have been fixed to my knowledge.

Thank you for the reply. I have asked the Raidzone tech for a copy of their Samba source, and we are also investigating network issues. Another thing we are doing is testing the large file copies on a spare Linux system, for comparison to the Raidzone unit. This test computer started off with Samba 2.2.1a-4, and copied a large file fine, and much faster than the rate we get on the Raidzone when it works. We then updated the test machine to Samba 2.2.8a-1, and it took 50% longer to copy the file.
Is a performance decrease like this a common experience with the newer versions? Are there some customary settings we should check?
Thanks. -Eric
