so I can build zfs volumes from the iSCSI disks.
Poking around, the reports say that FreeBSD is a pretty good iSCSI
server in such forms as freenas, but a lousy iSCSI client, with the
first problem being that that kludges are required to get iSCSI
volumes mounted early enough in the boot process for ZFS to find
them.
Is this still the case in FreeBSD 9?
I'd rather not use NFS, since the remote disks have mysql
databases,
and mysql and NFS are not friends.
An alternative is to mount the iSCSI under vmware, so zfs sees them
as
normal disks. Anyone tried that?

I don't have an answer for you at the moment, but I can tell you
that
I just started a new server build this morning with the intent of
using it as an iSCSI client and running ZFS on the drive. In my
case
however its going to be a file server that doesn't have very much
heavy I/O, with the intention of using compression on the ZFS file
set. In my case a script ran after start up to mount the drive
would
work if it fails. I will let you know what I find out, server is in
the middle of a buildworld to get it updated to the p4 release.
Yes you can mount as a drive through VMware and use ZFS just fine, I
have done a lot of recent tests using ZFS as the boot volume under
VMware. This new server will be my first production server to use
what
I have learned from those tests, as its system drive mounted through
VMware (ESX 4.1) and is booting from ZFS. Once the install of the
buildworld is complete I will add a 150G ZFS data set on our HP
Lefthand Networks SAN, run some tests and let you know the outcome
of
them.
Looks like I have some learning to do, system is up and running and
talks to the iscsi volume just fine, however as you mentioned, the
big
problem is mounting the volume at start up. can't find any options
at
all to launch iscontrol at boot. Found an example
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ script from a mail forum a ways back however it
was setup to use UFS volumes and a secondary fstab file for the iscsi
volumes. I don't see any reason that one can't be made to make use
of
zfs with the volumes set with option canmount=noauto and using an
rc.conf variable to pass which volumes to mount at boot, and umount
at
shutdown to the script.
However, I have some reading to do before I get started, as I haven't
tried to create an rc.d script, and need to get an understanding of
how to properly create one which follows all the proper guidelines,
and allows itself to be a requirement for other scripts. I don't see
any reason it would work successfully to host a MySQL database as the
OP was looking for or a Samba share as I intend to use it as long as
their start up can be set to require the iSCSI start up to run first.
If anyone has already done something similar to this and has some
information to pass on that would be great. I probably won't have
time to even start researching this till Thursday this week
Well I got stuck waiting at work today for a replacement array
controller, and got some time to work on this. This still needs some
work, and I am not sure its the best way to handle it as it does an
export on the zpool at shutdown and import at start up. I also don't
know at this point about other services waiting on it. But I have
verified that a server reboot cleanly dismounts the volumes and a reboot
remounts them.
Things to note, the # BEFORE: line below, that was copied from the old
mailing list thread I found, not sure if that is something real or not.
The ZFS data set I was using was set with option canmount=noauto. the
zpool import/export and zfs mount/umount are just typed in there, it
needs to be broken up and pulled form an rc.conf variable option instead

Re: No sound from speaker, using Realtek ALC269 and snd_hda
Yes, actually I'm using sysctl hw.snd.verbose=4 to understand
what's happening inside.
>From my tests, it's not a sense redirection problem. Because, when
I unmute everything, and then I plug a headphone, the sound goes
to the headphone and the internal speaker is mutted, and when I unplug
it, the internal speaker gets the sound, and (nid 26: the headphone)
is mutted.
So, anyway, I'm still debugging it and I found out that I don't have
to "unmute" everything, I just have to make sure that nid=15 is never
mutted.
i.e. the test I wrote in my last email could be more precise like this:
hdaa_audio_ctl_amp_set_internal(struct hdaa_devinfo *devinfo, nid_t nid,
int index, int lmute, int rmute,
int left, int right, int dir)
{
uint16_t v = 0;
if(nid == 15){ //just don't mute nid15, and it works
lmute = 0;
rmute = 0;
}
Strange thing is from my dmesg here: http://dpaste.com/818967/plain/
I thought that nid 15 wasn't used.
hdaa0: nid: 15 [DISABLED]
hdaa0:Name: audio mixer
hdaa0: Widget cap: 0x0020010a
hdaa0: Input amp: 0x8000
hdaa0: mute=1 step=0 size=0 offset=0
hdaa0: connections: 2
hdaa0: |
hdaa0: + [DISABLED] <- nid=2 [audio output]
hdaa0: + [DISABLED] <- nid=11 [audio mixer]
Maybe it's disabled because others were disabled for other reasons?
I honestly don't grok the whole thing yet.
We, IMVHO, probably just should add a patch inside hdaa_patches.c
for this case:
case HDA_CODEC_ALC269:
if (subid == 0x10438437){ //0x10438437 is my subsystem id.
w = hdaa_widget_get(devinfo, 15);
if(w != NULL)
//some magic to unmute it ?
}
break;
What do you think?

management for VM objects
Hi!
This questions about Inactive queue and Swap layer in VM management
system at FreeBSD. For test, i running dd (for put ufs cache to Inactive), and
i get this:
1132580 wire
896796 act
5583964 inact
281852 cache
112252 free
836960 buf
in swap: 20M
It is good. Lets start run programm like:
typedef char * pchar;
pchar a[1024*1024*4];
for(size_t i = 0; i < 1024*1024*2; i++)
{
a[i] = (pchar)malloc(1024);
if(a[i]) *(a[i]) = 'F';
}
Get this:
1156420 wire
3070196 act
3465316 inact
206352 cache

I completely agree with this. However, noting the most recent email it looks as if he still hasn't quite got the hang of installing software on FreeBSD yet. I believe there is a chapter in the Handbook devoted to it. One would still need to learn how to install software on FreeBSD in order to make use of a meta port; after all - it is still the same process. I do not think a meta port is a solution for not learning how to install software. My suggestion is centered around the idea that learning to install software is a prerequisite to using a meta port. I think we should be guiding him towards acquiring that understanding, then if such a meta port comes into being he will be able to make use of it as well. I do not disagree with the potential utility of a meta port. This is a 'horse before the cart' situation where one cannot replace the other. We should be helping him learn how to install software. A meta port should be a separate issue of its own, and not be attempting to replace not knowing how to install software. -Mike ___ 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"

If the document itself contrains page breaks ("form feed",

them with tr -d, just to make sure.

It will install the packages without compiling. BUT we can not tell you which php modules you need. So it could be that you later on need php-gd or some other option. Then pkg_add -r php-module name will install the missing module. You could install all the php modules, but i think (know) it is not wise to do so. regards ___ 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"

Speaker should be muted on headphones connection. That is one of two
ways of handling playback redirection. But it should be unmuted on
disconnection. You may try to set sysctl hw.snd.verbose=4 and
connect/disconnect headphones. It should report which controls are
affected and how.
You may try this hack to use pin controls instead of muters for redirection:

Unfortunately I am almost run out of ideas. Neither Linux nor audio/oss
seems have specific code for your system. That makes me think that
problem
is in some different basic assumptions in the drivers. But that doesn't

any hint to find it out.
You may try to play with setting different levels of ivref/ovref voltages
via hint.hdaa.0.config tunable. I haven't even seen it affecting power
amplifier, but who knows...

You can configure separately each port the metaport consists of and then build that metaport. Those "defaults chosen from begin" do not depend on if the 'nested' port is being built as a part of a metaport build process or separately thus no restrictions observed.

You will also What if being a proper sysadm means ability to deploy a package on thousands (tens of thaousands, etc.) of machines? In formal terms this means create a package and install on the every machine. This cannot be a several packages because this makes the whole task less quick and the solution less reliable. And the creation of such a package can be a more trivial task for sysadm than the such of a package installation or upgrade by itself. Such a metaport can be a person-scale/company-wide solution, not a public one so no harm for the general freebsd usage approaches/pphilosophy which is a kind of a public stuff. -- Peter Vereshagin (http://vereshagin.org) pgp: A0E26627 ___ 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"
