Subject: TRIM support through ciss
Dear colleagues,
I have a DB server with ciss and a bunch of disks (8 SAS + 2 Intel SATA SSD).
However, this setup does not seem to support TRIM on SSDs:
kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.bytes: 0
kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.success: 0
kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.unsupported: 418
kstat.zfs.misc.zio_trim.failed: 0
Excerpt from dmesg about SSD:
da9 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 9 lun 0
da9: <COMPAQ RAID 0 OK> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device
da9: Serial Number PACCR9SZ7KJS
da9: 135.168MB/s transfers
da9: Command Queueing enabled
da9: 114439MB (234371520 512 byte sectors: 255H 32S/T 28722C)
da9: quirks=0x1<NO_SYNC_CACHE>
da9: Delete methods: <NONE(*)>
the last line bothers me...
Is there any tuning I missed?
What your seeing there is that the RAID array doesn't support
any DELETE methods.
For ZFS you really don't want to use a HW RAID, its much better
to just give ZFS the raw disks as you gain nice features like
self healing :)
I've never used ciss, but if you can configure the disks as
JBOD it may mean it can then support a delete method.
In addition for TRIM to work all data disks in a pool need to
support a delete method. L2ARC disks are treated seperately.
Regards
Steve
