Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] zpool replace says the disk has a different sector alignment
On Nov 21, 2013, at 9:59 AM, Reginald Beardsley pulask...@yahoo.com wrote: What OS release was the pool built with? Could it be that an update has resulted in zfs not being willing to do what it did when the pool was created? In that case rolling back to the BE that built the pool might let you add the disk in w/ ashift=9. It was EITHER built in RHEL6, and zfsonlinux and then imported on OI 151a8, or it was built on OI 151a8 - I seem to have misplaced my notes from that period :/ However, I don't think that changes the need to rebuild the pool w/ ashift=12. For ashift=9 to be correct prior to the firmware update, the controller would have to have been doing the RMW buffering internally. It seems strange that they would remove such a feature. You might want to look for messages in old log files from prior to the update if you still have them. My notes don't reflect it, but I seem to recall that I managed to build an improperly aligned pool, but did not see any console messages and was not looking at /var/adm/messages until performance testing showed very poor performance. It may be you've stumbled across an old problem you didn't know you had. I don't think they removed it. I think (from what I'm told, though I haven't been able to find the document that the person said they were reading) that it is no longer the default setting - and the firmware upgrade was not smooth at all - and I haven't had a window when I could boot into the BIOS to check the settings and what options I have available to me there. So, right now, I'm working on emptying off a pair of Nexsan SATABeasts (that are out of warranty) so I can swing them over to this system to give me just enough room to create a new zpool and I can migrate all this data there, then I can rebuild my existing zpool.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] CIFS approach to valid users etc.

Indeed, no. But also it is more flexible since at the filesystem level you can change the (inherited or end-node) rights to something else for some aprticular files or directories. Maybe, for writable shares you can allow @everyone and then just enforce filesystem access to browse/read/write as if those were local accesses i.e. over SSH shells? It's two different things, though. In the Windows world, you have access permissions for the share, and then on the contents of that share, you have ACLs. One is not a substitue for the other (particularly because users can mess with the ACL whereas they cannot with the share permissions).

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Issue setting time/date in OI 151a8
Hi, known issues with nobody finding time to investigate the root cause. All admin apps are broken in the same way.

I just did a fresh install of OI 151a8 and am no longer able to do so. When I launch the option under a8, and validate as root, the time/date popup remains greyed out and the hourglass stays indefinitely when the app is in focus. Has anyone seen this issue with 151a8, and/or can someone suggest some additional troubleshooting to get this working again. I am running it on a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 mobo.
