ZFS or LVM2 on Debian?

2008-10-06 Thread Eric Chevalier
Hello, fellow Linux/390 list members! The company where I works runs a mainframe Debian system for a variety of functions. One critical function is backing up the server that provides our public Internet presence (Web, FTP, mail and so forth). Every night we use rsync to backup the public system

Hi, Eric. Form your description of the intended usage of the DASD space, I would think LVM2 would be a good match. It's easy to set up, performs well (if you get the operating parms correct...) and can be expanded if need be. Have a good one. DJ Eric Chevalier wrote: Hello, fellow Linux/390

Re: ZFS or LVM2 on Debian?

2008-10-06 Thread Adam Thornton
ZFS is really neat, but because of its license, a kernel-mode ZFS driver is unlikely ever to be included in a Linux distribution. One might make the case that the license was chosen specifically for this reason. FUSE (Filesystems in User Space) makes LVM quite possible on Linux, but it does

I would continue to use ext3 filesystem managed by lvm2 - but I'm not real familiar with the ZFS solution. lvm2 has worked very well in my experience and can expand an ext3 filesystem without unmounting it. Since you're using rsync - you might want to take a peek at rdiff .. essentially allows

For performance reasons, if you can afford to dedicate several devices to this, consider striping the LVM2 volume. Use the same number of stripes as you have paths to the DASD. Makes a HUGE difference in performance. Contrary to popular belief, you can still extend the LV later, you just need
