Hi Chris
As I understand, GPFS likes to 'see' the block devices, even on a
hardware raid solution such at DDN's.
How is that accomplished when you use ZFS for software raid?
On page 4 I see this info, and I'm trying to interpret it:
General Configuration
...
* zvols
* nsddevices
– echo "zdX generic”
Thanks
Jaime

Hi Jaime,
What in particular would you like explained more? I'd be more than
happy to discuss things further.
Chris

Subject: Re: [gpfsug-discuss] GPFS on ZFS?
I just came across this presentation on "GPFS with underlying ZFS
block devices", by Christopher Hoffman, Los Alamos National Lab,
although some of the
implementation remains obscure.
http://files.gpfsug.org/presentations/2016/anl-june/LANL_GPFS_ZFS.pdf
It would be great to have more details, in particular the possibility
of straight use of GPFS on ZFS, instead of the 'archive' use case as
described on the presentation.
Thanks
Jaime

Since we can not get GNR outside ESS/GSS appliances, is anybody using
ZFS for software raid on commodity storage?
Thanks
Jaime
