[zfs-discuss] Oracle database on zfs

2009-03-03 Thread Vahid Moghaddasi
Hi, I am wondering if there is a guideline on how to configure ZFS on a server with Oracle database? We are experiencing some slowness on writes to ZFS filesystem. It take about 530ms to write a 2k data. We are running Solaris 10 u5 127127-11 and the back-end storage is a RAID5 EMC EMX. This is a

Hi everyone, I am not exactly sure if this is ZFS problem or Java or something else? On a T2000 with latest patch 120011-14, we are not able to kill a Java process, e.g. kill or kill -9 has no affect on the process. I did a lsof on the PID and saw over 200 open files and many are showing the
