Ärende: Re: [OmniOS-discuss] zfs send via SRP or other RDMA enabled protocol

Sounds sensible, how do I do that?

I tried creating a view for a thin lu with my other zfs box, but how do I 
detect it?





First of all, if you run IB, forget the iscsi stuff, it's only creating un 
unnecessary IP layer that you don't need, and adds latency to your application.

Did you create SRP target service using COMSTAR?

# svcadm enable -r ibsrp/target

What's the output of "srptadm list-target" ?(on storage box), or you can also 
use "stmfadm list-target -v"

Do you got all necessary IB stuff, like a storage manager(OpenSM), in place? 
HCA ports shows up in dladm show-link?

If so, your host system should discover it as a local disk, just with "format", 
if you have created a view with the right eui.xxxxxxxxxxxx for the initiator 
HCA.

I also stumbled across something else interesting, wondering if its possible to 
set up two identical boxes and create a pool with local/remote disks as per 
this article

I usually mount a iSer target and perform ZFS send to the target. This was the 
best way to exploit the rdma bandwidth to its full potential.

Hi  all,

 

Is it possible to do zfs send/recv via SRP or some other RMDA enabled protocol? 
IPoIB is really slow, about 50 MB/sec between two boxes, no disks are more than 
10-15% busy.

 

If not, is there a way I can aggregate say 8 or 16  IPoIB partitions and push 
throughput to a more reasonable speed&#8230;

 

Br,

Rune
