Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Bloody update for December 11th

[Guenther Alka]

I have updated the pdf with results from OmniOS bloody.

Main resultsfor 10G Ethernet on OSX 10.11 and Windows 8.1

-  OS version and client network driver is very criticalfor 10G
   on some configs or with some driver releases 10G is not faster than 
1G (mostly on reads)
-  From Windows, performance to Solaris is similar than to OmniOS (at a 
lower level than with OSX)

-  From OSX, SMB2 to Solaris is faster than to OmniOS
-  OSX is faster than Windows on SMB2 reads and writes out of the box
   SMB2 perfomance on OSX goes up to > 600 MB/s on writes and > 800 
MB/s on reads
   SMB perfomance on Windows goes up to > 300 MB/s on writes and > 600 
MB/s on reads


This is a quick "out of the box" check with SMB2 and Jumboframes as the 
only special settingson OSX.
On Windows 8.1 defaults + mtu 9000 are used. Maybe we need some 
additional tweakings on Windows

Do you plan to add tests with the implementation in OmniOS bloody? The 
Nexenta implementation might be quite a lot different than the Oracle 
Solaris one.  Perhaps it might even fail with your tests.

I was surprised to see the huge improvement with jumbo frames.

OmniOS is my preferred platform.
I will add SMB2 results with the same config to the pdf this week

Note that the link for the ZFS installation root on this page still
points to the Nov 09 version.  I used wget to retrieve the Dec 11
version, so the file itself is there, just the link is wrong.

[OmniOS-discuss] Bloody update for December 11th

[Dan McDonald]

This will be the last bloody update for 2015.  The new install media (ISO, 
USB-DD, or kayak .zfs.bz2) can be obtained via here:

http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/Installation

illumos-omnios is built from revision 2e8c0ba.  omnios-build is built from 
b7ab647, but is a faster moving target.

New in this bloody:

- PCRE to 8.38 (the one already patched in 014 & 016).

- OpenSSH now works properly with the illumos audit system.  This will be 
backported to 014 & 016 soon.

- OpenSSL to 1.0.2e (already patched in 014 & 016).

- Package variant support for DEBUG kernels now built-in (more on this below).

- ZFS receive now works with replication streams with intermediate snapshots 
that exceed refquota (a requested fix)

- SMB2 support (thanks Nexenta)


The "package variant" support (thanks to Jeff Sipek for the inspiration) allows 
a user of OmniOS to create a distinct boot environment with same-time-compiled 
bits, but with DEBUG enabled.  To create such a BE, you start by upgrading to 
these bits, and then you can use the "pkg change-variant" command.  The 
change-variant subcommand works a lot like install.  Here's an example:

Last login: Fri Dec 11 10:30:56 2015
OmniOS 5.11 omnios-2e8c0ba  December 2015
# pkg variant -a
VARIANT
VALUE
arch   
i386
debug.illumos  
false
opensolaris.zone   
global
# pkg change-variant -n debug.illumos=true
Packages to change: 188
 Variants/Facets to change:   1
   Create boot environment: Yes
Create backup boot environment:  No

Planning linked: 0/1 done; 1 working: zone:tz2
Linked image 'zone:tz2' output:
| No updates necessary for this image. (zone:tz2)
`
Planning linked: 1/1 done
# 

If I wasn't using -n:  boom, instant DEBUG kernel in a new BE.  This will be 
handy for people who encounter problems.  We can request you create a DEBUG BE 
and reproduce your problem without having to ONU or do any other weirdness.

As I said earlier, this is the last bloody update for 2015.  Have a happy 
holiday season (whatever you celebrate, or not) and a happy new year!

Dan

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Bloody update for December 11th

[Olaf Marzocchi]

Any plan to backport it to 014? Since 014 is LTS, lack of backport means no 
SMB2 for a long time for all the LTS users.
