Hi Lori,
Thanks to you and your team for posting the zfs boot image kit. I was able
to jumpstart a VMWare virtual machine using a Nevada b62 image patched with
your conversion kit and it went very smoothly.
Here is the profile that I used:

Leon Koll,
As a knowldegeable outsider I can say something.
The benchbark (SFS) page specifies NFSv3,v2 support, so I question
whether you ra n NFSv4. I would expect a major change in
performance just to version 4 NFS version and ZFS.
The benchmark
The filesystem allows to keep two or more copies of the data written. What I'm
interested in to know is how the placement of the copies is done. Consider a
JBOD pool, having set the filesystem to keep two copies, will the copies be
actively placed on two different volumes, as such allowing to
See my blog on this topic:

The quick summary is that if there is more than one vdev comprising the
pool, the copies will be spread across multiple vdevs. If there is only
one, then the copies are spread out physically (at least

I certainly don't support this assertion (if it was being made).
NFSv4 does have some advantages from the perspective of enabling
more aggressive file
Hi,
ok I know zfs-fuse is still incomplete and performance has not been considered,
but still, before I'm going to use it for my /home I wanted a rough estimate.
Another benchmark already asserted that zfs by itself, on Solaris, is a very
fast beast
I have a master system w/ few non-glabal zones on zfs fs runnin sol 10
11/06. I need to build few systems using the master system as the master
image.
I know I can't flasharchive the whole system. I could just flasharchive
non-zfs fs and use that to jumpstart the other boxes. Then use zfs send |
I'm potentially stepping in areas I don't quite know enough about, but
others can jump in if I speak any mistruths :)
