The numbers suggest you are using 4 x 1TB (base 10 TB) drives? That equals 3.7TiB (base 2 TB) which is the unit zpool/zfs uses. This is the total amount of space available to the pool and includes all space on all drives in the pool. Nothing strange so far. Now, since you've told zpool to create filesystems within the pool using raidz, the filesystems will have 25% less space available since this space is used for parity data. So a filesystem using the whole pool will report having 3.7 * 0.75 = 2.7TiB available which is in agreement with your numbers. A raidz filesystem will always lose 1 disk worth of space and will never report that space as available to you since it will always be occupied with parity data. The pool on the other hand doesn't make a distinction, in this case anyway, between user data and parity data so zpool will always report what's actually unallocated on all your physical drives in the pool. For every GiB you allocate in the filesystem you will allocate 1.33GiB in the pool since that includes parity data. zfs list and df -h are your best friends to find out how much space is available for your files. Don't bother about zpool list.

Slap dedup on top of that and you get magically growing fs according to df 8) Ahhh...yea. Thanks everyone! I didn't realize that zpool status would show the raw space (so 4x1TB base10 is ~3.7TB base2), and not the available space after the 4-1 RAIDZ usage consumes. So that all makes sense, as well as with reservations, quotas and compression now causing df to not really know what's going on. If I want to get the actual values of available space vs used space, I should use zfs get all filesystem and look at the properties there? --Aaron ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Problem running custom startup script at proper time
I'm having trouble getting a custom startup script to run at the
proper time. I'm having to use gnop with my new Western Digital
WD10EARS (1TB, 4K sector size) because it reports the standard 512
byte to the OS. I'm basing it on
http://www.cod3r.com/2010/06/zfs-on-western-digital-ears-drives/ which
also says that it needs to be run on each boot so that ZFS will use
the .nop devices. So, I've created a custom startup script to
automatically do this for me at the proper time (before zfs starts and
auto-mounts). I'm having trouble getting it to work properly though.
In services -r, it is listed before the zfs startup script, but in
dmesg the gnop messages come after the zfs startup messages. Below is
excerpts from services -r, dmesg, and the startup script in its
entirety.

Re: Delaying mount of UFS filesystem in ZFS pool
I didn't think of mountlate, that may work. What I ended up doing was adding the noauto option and running a cronjob that checks and mounts the filesystem.

Building amd64
Hello I would like to build a computer using a Intel Duo 2 Core processor, my first attempted at finding a compatible motherboard failed. I do not remember having the same difficulties six years ago when I built my last computer. Does any one have any advice. I have looked at the hardware notes for 6.2 Release http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.2R/hardware-amd64.html#PROC and also the list of mother boards that were tested, kinda tested by other users . I am think of building two, maybe computers, one which will replace my two PIII as a intranet toy (web server, groupware?, wireless AP, gateway/firewall), multimedia center (Mythtv, Mp3 player). The second will be a desktop that will hopefully be run multiple virtual OS using win4bsd until Xen is available. I would perfer a microATX, I live in a small apartment. Is there a manufacturer anyone would recommend? A chipset that is support better than any other? Does it come down to trial and error? Intel does have some board which support Linux, at the very worst I can use that until I can get Freebsd working. My first failed attempt was an Abit Fatal1ty F-190HD with a ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 it does not boot any open source system, Freebsd x86/amd64, kunbuntu x64, or opensolaris. I am going to borrow a copy of Windows Vista to verify it is a driver not faulty hardware.

Re: Sony DRU-820A DVD-RW RAM Drive
Hello I am using various kde applications, Amarok, kaudiocreator, kaffeine... KDE appears to be the problem. I used cdda2wav and even kaudiocreator is ripping audio cds, that was not working earlier. So the problem my be with the kde applications not freebsd. K3b does not work. I am installing xmms to see if that works and also try a commandline application to play a cd.

I have tried entering the horizontal and vertical refresh rates manually and running with both types of SiS chipset drivers at different low resolutions and different bit depths (24 and 16) but still no luck.

Freebsd 6.2 PPS (pps.ko) and NTP

Atheros Card support
Hello I am looking for a pci wireless card for my Freebsd router. According to the hardware notes for 6.2 The ath(4) driver supports all Atheros Cardbus or PCI cards, except those that are based on the AR5005VL chipset. Does the ath driver support include AR5005GS or AR5006XS? It appears the chipset listed in the man page are no longer being used in being used. Can anyone suggest a card? I would like to avoid using the ndis driver. I have tried using it for two different card and was unsuccessful.

ltdl library problems
I am trying to compile a program called gyachi on my freebsd 6.1 machine and am having a ton of problems. I consulted the gyachi forums but most people there are running on one flavor of linux or another, nobody has it on freebsd that i can tell, so now i am turning here. at first my configure would stop at alsa, even though i have the linux-compatible alsa programs, so then i used the --with-esd switch and now i'm getting stopped with the following error: checking for lt_dlopen in -lltdl... no configure: error: cannot find ltdl library I have libtool installed and and under /usr/local/lib i have: libltdl.a libltdl.la libltdl.so libltdl.so.4 I tried using the --with-libintl-prefix switch like so: ./configure --enable-esd --with-gnu-ld --with-libintl-prefix=/usr/local it's still not finding it, same error again. I looked in the readme for libltdl and here is what it says: /usr/local/share/libtool/libltdl]# less README This is GNU libltdl, a system independent dlopen wrapper for GNU libtool. It supports the following dlopen interfaces: * dlopen (Solaris, Linux and various BSD flavors) * shl_load (HP-UX) * LoadLibrary (Win16 and Win32) * load_add_on (BeOS) * GNU DLD (emulates dynamic linking for static libraries) * dyld (darwin/Mac OS X) * libtool's dlpreopen Just one other note, like the fedora guys that got their's working by linking /usr/local/share/libtool/libltdl/ltdl.h to /usr/include this does not fix the problem on my system. i get the exact same error. checking for lt_dlopen in -lltdl... no configure: error: cannot find ltdl library I'd really like to get this working if possible (and i'm sure it is) all help would be appreciated. I can submit my config.log if that would help. Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, first let me say that I'm pretty new to bsd, so please forgive the newbie questions; I've been using linux (redhat, suse, centos) for many years, and so learning bsd was a bit of a learning curve, but not bad (I almost never use gui's for administration); I was wondering if there are any packagement tools for freebsd/pcbsd that offer simular functionality to up2date or yum; I take care of installing and updating complete rpm based systems using yum, and have not found a tool simular to yum for freebds (I'm also trying to stay away from pbi's, since they are specific to pcbsd); I've used the pkg_add, pkg_delete, portupgrade tools, but am just looking for an easy way to ensure my entire bsd box is updated; Also, as I understand it, bsd makes use of ports, by using tools such as cvsup, however I have never had much success compiling my own software, as such much prefer to use binary packages, which I understand that the freebsd authors provide; for example, if I wanted to install pine, I would much rather install it by running pkg_add -r pine ; I'm just looking for a simple way to update currently installed binaries, simular to installing new binaries with pkg_add ; thanks very much for your help with this.

Re: Booting gvinum fails: missing /dev/gvinum/* device entries
On 8/26/06, Aaron Gifford [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote (or in other words, I wrote): No matter what I tried, booting always failed at the point of mounting the root filesystem. I would be kicked to a mountroot prompt. Any attempts at mounting root from ufs:/dev/gvinum/root failed. Even if I loaded geom_vinum.ko by hand during boot to be absolutely sure gvinum was loaded, this failed. At mountroot, the gvinum devices did not show up at all. So I fell back and mounted /dev/ad0a (my old non-gvinum drive) as root. That worked. kldstat showed that indeed geom_vinum.ko WAS successfully loaded. But when I looked in /dev nothing for gvinum showed up there. It was empty. The gvinum list command showed all my gvinum volumes working, but there were NO entries in /dev. No wonder I was unable to mount /dev/gvinum/root -- There was no device entry. So what's the deal? Any suggestions? Is there something I need to compile in my kernel? I managed to fix my own problem. Before I posted, I did some searching and found previous posts of people who were missing /dev/gvinum device entries. They mentioned that it was corrupt GEOM vinum metadata. I did not believe that this applied to my situation, as while booted of my older working i386 kernel running on a non-GEOM-vinum drive, the GEOM vinum volumes appeared and worked normally. Therefore, I concluded, the metadata must be in working order. However, no matter how I tried to boot off the amd64 kernel on the gvinum root volume, it failed. Closer examination made it look like perhaps under the amd64 kernel and geom_vinum.ko module, perhaps the metadata stored in the first 265 sectors (512-byte sectors) of the vinum partitions was being interpreted differently than it was by the i386 kernel and geom_vinum.ko module. This leads me to believe that the problem was one of the following: 1) Due to my changing the BIOS boot order of my drives (so as to boot from the gvinum drive running amd64 instead of the non-vinum i386 kernel drive), perhaps GEOM vinum got confused about the configuration since the BIOS device boot order was different; or 2) because of differences between the i386 and amd64 architectures, GEOM vinum volumes created under one architecture do not correctly appear under another architecture. If #1, then I need to remember this and be careful about changing BIOS boot order while running GEOM vinu. If #2, then I believe this is a bug in GEOM vinum. Volume metadata should be cross-architecture independent. So, FreeBSD gurus wiser in the innards of GEOM vinum than this user (pretty much everyone who knows how GEOM vinum actually works), which is the cause of my woes? Is it #1? Or is it #2? Or am I missing a third possibility entirely? Thanks for any future enlightenment!

Booting gvinum fails: missing /dev/gvinum/* device entries
I'm running 6.1R (amd64) on a system, and recently added more drives. I decided I would eventually migrate my root system off the existing drive (/dev/ad0a) to use a gvinum root (/dev/gvinum/root) filesystem and eventually remove the old hard drive altogether. The two added drives (ad1 and ad2) are labeled (with bsdlabel) identically like this: # size offsetfstype a: 4194039 2814.2BSD b: 4194394 4194320 vinum c: 6251424480unused d: 4194304 16 vinum e: 616753824 8388624 vinum The gvinum configuration looks like: # Drives for the root gvinum RAID-1 volume: drive a1 device /dev/ad1d drive a2 device /dev/ad2d # # Drives for the swap gvinum RAID-1 volume: drive b1 device /dev/ad1b drive b2 device /dev/ad2b # # Drives for the usr gvinum RAID-1 volume: drive c1 device /dev/ad1e drive c2 device /dev/ad2e # # RAID-1 volume for root: volume root plex org concat sd length 0 drive a1 plex org concat sd length 0 drive a2 # # RAID-1 volume for swap: volume swap plex org concat sd length 0 drive b1 plex org concat sd length 0 drive b2 # # RAID-1 volume for usr: volume usr plex org concat sd length 0 drive c1 sd length 0 drive c2 Once the gvinum volumes were created, new filesystems created, and mounted temporarily on /mnt and /mnt/usr, I added a line to loader.conf in the new drives' future /boot directory containing 'geom_vinum_load=YES'. Oh, and the new drives' future /etc/fstab contains: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/gvinum/swap none swapsw 00 /dev/gvinum/root / ufs rw 11 /dev/gvinum/usr /usr ufs rw 22 Oh, boot blocks were also written to both drives before the gvinum volumes were set up using bsdlabel -b. Now for the test. I rebooted, changing the boot order in BIOS so the first drive, ad1 (instead of ad0) was the boot source. THE PROBLEM: No matter what I tried, booting always failed at the point of mounting the root filesystem. I would be kicked to a mountroot prompt. Any attempts at mounting root from ufs:/dev/gvinum/root failed. Even if I loaded geom_vinum.ko by hand during boot to be absolutely sure gvinum was loaded, this failed.

This is of course dependent on your needs, and some people (occaid) have achieved line-rate (small packets) ip forwarding with intel pro 1000 cards and some patches to enable fastforwarding for ipv6 in freebsd. hope this is of some help.

Re: Why won't FreeBSD boot from hard drive??
The SATA controller chip is the Intel ICH7R Southbridge RAID Controller. The hard is selected as the boot device; however, it seems to default back to the DVD/CD upon reboot. Even when I disconnect the DVD/CD it doesn't look to the hard drives. I wonder if there is a problem booting the OS from the RAID array? The motherboard manual states If you want to boot the system from a HD included in a created RAID array, copy first the RAID driver from the support CD to a floppy disk before you install an OS to the selected HD. However, I don't have a floppy drive and I suspect they assume I'm loading Windows.

Does Marvell 88E8053 PCIe Gigabit LAN controller work with 6.0?
Folks, I have an ASUS P5LD2 mobo with a Marvell 88E8053 PCIe Gigabit LAN controller. FreeBSD doesn't seem to recognize it. Should the LAN controller work out of the box or am I missing a driver? ifconfig returns plip0: and lo0: with their respective flags. Sysinstall says plip0 is an unknown interface type. The speed LED is orange indicating a 100 Mbps connection, but the act/link is off. My ISP supports DHCP.

Why won't FreeBSD boot from hard drive??
I successfully loaded FreeBSD 6.0 from CD all the way until the system reboots; however, the computer seems regard the DVD/CD as the boot hard drive and is trying to boot from that. During boot-up it auto detects the DVD ROM as the Pri Master, and the two HDs as 3rd and 4th Master. When it gets to the boot-stage, I get a message ³Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key.² According to the BIOS setup utility, the 1st boot device is Intel Striped RAID. Yet, when I restart and hit F8 to select the BBS popup menu, it appears that the DVD is still the boot device. I change it to the HD and re-boot and still I get the original ³Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key message. The DVD/CD cable is connected to the blue primary IDE on the motherboard and the two HD are connected to SATA1 and SATA2. From the Main screen of the BIOS setup utility: -- Primary IDE Master is the NEC DVD RW. -- Primary IDE Slave Not Detected, -- IDE Configuration is RAID (OnBoard Serial-ATA BOOTROM is Disabled.) Any ideas on how I can make the system boot from the hard drive instead of trying the DVD/CD?

System doesn't recognize boot device
I¹m a newbie who assembled a PC.

Problems with X11 Forwarding
I thought this might be the best place to post the question. I am running FreeBSD5.4-RELEASE. For the sake of argument, let's say I am trying to get the port editors/fte running on my Windows box via an SSH tunnel. I am running WindowsXP, cygwin's X11 server, and PUTTY. As far as I can tell from all my Googling, this should actually be quite simple: - openssh is setup on FreeBSD with X11Forwarding=yes - I start the cygwin X-server (XWin -ac -multiwindow) - Putty is configured to forward X11 sessions - I connect via Putty - running '$ fte' from the FreeBSD command line should supposedly open everything up now on my Windows box, but it does not. From what I understand, when I connect now via Putty the env variable DISPLAY should be set. But it is not (which is the error fte gives me when I try to run it). If I try to manually set the DISPLAY variable (I tried localhost:0, localhost:0.0, ip:0, ip:0.0) it still doesn't work. editors/fte is fully installed (with X11libs and all that) but I wonder if there is more I need installed on the FreeBSD end to make things work. I really appreciate your time and any assistance you can render. -- Aaron Dalton | Super Duper Games [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://superdupergames.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have now tried manually setting DISPLAY to (localhost:0.0, localhost:10.0, ip:0.0, ip:10.0) on the FreeBSD end and still nothing is working. If I use ip:0.0 I get some router traffic, but nothing actually happens and then it just stops trying saying it could not open the display.

I have been told VNC is a good way to go as well, but some have mentioned some performance issues. What have you found? It works liveably well? It works great for me. I have a pretty fast internet connection (cable modem). One thing I like about it is the session doesn't end when you disconnect. You can start a long running process like cvsup, disconnect, and come back later to check on it. Unlike when you vnc to a Windows box, you don't get the X session that's on the local workstation, you get a new one. If you need to connect to the primary X session, like for remote support, there's a version of VNC in the ports for that too (xvnc?). For the record, I finally got standard X11 forwarding working once I installed tightvnc. I presume it was because I didn't have an X11 client installed. Now to get VNC working! I can see which I prefer.

Also, Xen currently requires any guest OS to be running a modified kernel. Suse and Redhat support for Xen means that they ship with this modified kernel so they can be installed as a guest OS. They might also ship with the Xen hypervisor and have some way to install Suse or Redhat as VM 1 (the controlling virtual machine). If you're asking if one can run FreeBSD as a guest, I'm guessing the answer is yes. In the upcoming year, intel and AMD are releasing new virtualization technology built into their CPUs. When this happens, Xen will be able to use any x86 OS without modification supposedly.

Re: _still_ looking for FreeBSD dvd ripping software...
In the windows world I used dvd decrypter. It output .iso files directly, and it supported removing macrovision (and most importantly) removing prohibited user actions ( PUA / PUO ). I cannot find anything like this for FreeBSD. I asked previously, and was shown sysutls/dvdbackup. This program is extremely limited, has no macrovision or PUA functionality, _and_ does not output ISO files. I know I can take its output and re-form it back to an ISO, but I bet it is not the same as a direct ISO. And a perfect copy is important to me. So, does anyone know of any _decent_ way to rip a dvd _directly_ to an ISO on FreeBSD, and that also supports advanced features like I mention above? (a linux program that could be run under binary compatibility would be fine with me ...) lxdvdrip works well. And ShrinkTo5 should be ported over to linux soon. once that happens we should have a very good program to use. Ripping a dvd to an image that can be burned to a writable dvd is not a cut and dried procedure for a number of reasons. I have used a number of tools on bsd to get the job done in various circumstances. The tools I've used include vobcopy, mplayer/mencoder, transcode (for tcrequant), mjpeg-tools (for mplex), dvdauthor, and growisofs. I have also used dvdrip with some success. Hope this information moves you in the right direction.

Hold down alt and type the ascii value (in base 10) on the number pad. When you release the alt key, the character will be sent as if it had been typed. Note that this only works with the number pad. I suppose keeping Xorg from intercepting these key combinations and doing nothing with them is more complicated... (I just get beeps, no characters) Any clues on that?

Be careful with scrub and NFS. From http://openbsd.bay13.net/faq/pf/scrub.html
One reason not to scrub on an interface is if one is passing NFS
through PF. Some non-OpenBSD platforms send (and expect) strange
packets -- fragmented packets with the do not fragment bit set,
which are (properly) rejected by scrub.
Well, it looks like scrub fixed the issue. I had originally removed the
scrub in all line because i too had read in the OBSD faq that scrub
might be what was messing up my nfs connection.
I put it back and i'm back to my one one state tracting rule for all
outbound traffic for this machine. Just so everyone can see, this is
the ruleset and it's working properly:
scrub in all
block in log all
pass quick on lo0 all
pass out on fxp0 proto { tcp, udp, icmp } all keep state
