Hi Eric,

I have a situation where a zfs file server holding lots of graphic files cannot

My idea was initially to run a full backup on Sunday through the lto library on

Hi,
I just installed OpenSolaris on my Dell Optiplex 755 and created raidz2
with a few slices on a single disk. I was expecting a good read/write
performance but I got the speed of 12-15MBps.
How can I enhance the read/write performance of my raid?
Thanks,

From reading blogs, seems zfs-auto-snapshot is obsolete and was/is
being replaced by time-slider. But I can not seem to find it for
Solaris10.
I believe that Time Slider is just a front end for zfs-auto-snapshot.
