[zfs-discuss] 1tb SATA drives
I'm curious to know what other people are running for HD's in white box systems? I'm currently looking at Seagate Barracuda's and Hitachi Deskstars. I'm looking at the 1tb models. These will be attached to an LSI expander in a sc847e2 chassis driven by an LSI 9211-8i HBA. This system will be used as a large storage array for backups and archiving.

As of yet, I have only found 3.5 models with the Sandforce 1200, which was not recommended on this list. Does anyone maybe know of a model that has the Sandforce 1500 and is 3.5? Or any other 3.5 SSD that he/she can recommend? I have not personally used one, but I have received recommendations for the STEC ZeusRAM. It is a 3.5 SAS RAM-based, flash-backed SSD. I was quoted a shade under $3K USD for an 8GB unit. My understanding is that these have to be ordered through an integrator and there is a significant lead time. There are 2.5-3.5 adapter shells that you should be able to use for any/all of the 2.5 SSDs on the market. -Will ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
[zfs-discuss] Cannot remove zil device
The pool was originally created on 2008.11 then upgraded to 2009.06 and again upgraded to snv-134. Originally I was using Intel x25e's as the zil but recently purchased a zeusRAM and when trying to remove the Intel I issue the zpool remove command and it appears to work. Yet when I do a zpool status the Intel device is still a pool member. Any thoughts? ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Not just the OS, but the pool, too, need to be upgraded. You'll need to run a 'zpool upgrade' on the pool with the log device. Only later versions of ZFS supported removal of the ZIL. IIRC, the zpool version supported by 2008.11 definitely didn't, and I'm pretty sure the 2009.06 version didn't either, but b134 definitely does. -- Erik Trimble Java System Support Mailstop: usca22-123 Phone: x17195 Santa Clara, CA I've tried on pool version 22 and 26 at this point under openindiana. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

I've been able to remove zil devices from it before but at some point they become stuck. The zpool remove command completes with no error, but the device is never really removed and remains in the pool. zpool iostat will show no activity to the device however, and the alloc column shows 16.0E. It is possible to do a zpool replace on the device, but the replacing device will end up in the same state (unusable and unable to be removed). -phillip I've also tried replacing and removing the replacing device with no luck. I'm able to remove the zeusRAM without issue which seems rather puzzling. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Btw, log device removal is in from zpool v19, so the one you're using should work.
