Re: [zfs-discuss] zone's filesystem does not mount at zone create if root of pool not mou

[Kam Lane]

A bug is being filed on this by Sun. A Senior Sun Engineer was able to 
replicate the problem and the only work around they suggested was to 
temporarily mount the parent filesystem on the pool. This applies to Sol 10 
Update 8; not sure about anything else.

[zfs-discuss] x4500 w/ small random encrypted text files

[Kam Lane]

I'm getting ready to test a thumper (500gig drives/ 16GB) as a backup store for 
small (avg 2kb) encrypted text files. I'm considering a zpool of 7 x 5+1 raidz1 
vdevs to maximize space and provide some level of redundancy carved into about 
10 zfs filesystems. Since the files are encrypted, compression is obviously 
out. Is it recommended to tune the zfs blocksize to 2KB for this type of 
implementation? Also, has anyone noticed any performance impacts presenting a 
config like this to a non-global zone?
