Never mind.
It looks like the controller is flakey. Neither disk in the mirror is clean.
Attempts to backup and recover the remaining disk produced I/O errors that were
traced to the controller.
Thanks for your help Victor.

Hi,
I am considering building a modest sized storage system with zfs. Some of the
data on this is quite valuable, some small subset to be backed up forever,
and I am evaluating back-up options with that in mind.
My understanding is that zfs send approximately captures the copy-on-write file

Perhaps an ISCSI mirror for a laptop? Online it when you are back
home to keep your backup current.

I was curious as to if it's possible to know if a disk device (from the SAN) is
a member of any zpool. The disks are shared to several servers, and the zpool
is exported/imported between servers. I am writing a script to list all the

I'm using Sun's built-in LSI controller with (I presume) the original internal

Still, no joy for me at U320 speeds. To be precise, when the controller is set

You can use the name value pairs in the vdev label. ( I guess). Unfortunately I
do not know any scripts.

What is the best way to back up a zfs pool for recovery? Recover entire pool
or files from a pool... Would you use snapshots and clones?
I would like to move the backup to a different disk and not use tapes.
suggestions??

Can you add a disk (volume) to an existing raidz pool?? Or do you still need
to create a new pool, copy data, destroy old pool in order to expand the pool
size?

Sometimes people get confused about the ZIL and separate logs. For
sizing purposes,
the ZIL is a write-only workload. Data which is written to the ZIL is
later asynchronously
written to the pool when the txg is committed.
Right; the tgx needs time to transfer the ZIL.

I think Y is such a variable and complex number it would be difficult to give a
rule of thumb, other than to 'test with your workload'.

I do exactly this, but:
- It's not the only thing I do for backup.
- The iscsi initiator is currently being a major PITA for me.

I think you misunderstand the function of the ZIL. It's not a journal,
and doesn't get transferred to the pool as of a txg. It's only ever
written except
after a crash it's read to do replay. See:

I was testing zfs over iscsi (with commstar over a zvol) and got some errors.
Target and initiator are on the same host.
I've copy-pasted an excerpt on zpool status hereafter.
The pool (tank) containing the iscsi-shared zvol (tank/tsmvol) is healthy and
show no errors.
