[zfs-discuss] Custom Jumpstart and RAID-10 ZFS rpool
Is it possible to create a custom Jumpstart profile to install Nevada on a RAID-10 rpool? From the ZFS Boot FAQ [1], you can create a profile to install Nevada with a RAID-1 rpool using the following line: pool newpool auto auto auto mirror c0t0d0s0 c0t1d0s0 Is there an equivalent line for RAID-10? I've tried using the following line, but the Jumpstart check script complains about it being invalid: pool newpool auto auto auto mirror c0t0d0s0 c0t1d0s0 mirror c0t2d0s0 c0t3d0s0 Thanks, Stephen Le [1] http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/zfsbootFAQ/#jumpinstall ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

Though a finish sscript could add additional simple mirrors to create the config his example would have created. Pretty sure that's still not RAID10 though. And any files laid down by the installer would be constrained to the first mirrored pair, only new files would have a chance at be distributed over the addtional pairs. -Kyle ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

I don't think this is possible. I already tried to add extra vdevs after install, but I got an error message telling me that multiple vdevs for rpool are not allowed.

Good to know. I always put all my 'data' diskspace in a separate pool anyway to make migration to another host easier, so I haven't actually tried it. -Kyle ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

The attempt to add additional top-level vdevs will fail because it's not supported for root pools. One top-level vdev only. We hope to relax this restriction and support both multiple top-level vdevs and RAID-Z for root pools in the future. But that work hasn't started yet, so I have no estimates at all for when it might be available. lori And any files laid down by the installer would be constrained to the first mirrored pair, only new files would have a chance at be distributed over the addtional pairs. -Kyle ___ 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
