Did your x4500 cope with 3TB disks without any
modifications? I heard the BIOS does not support 2TB
disks?
We had no problems with our Sun X4500 supporting 3TB disks.
(We bought a single 3TB drive to test on the system to make sure
before buying 45 more!) Over the years, we have updated the

Why do you want them to GPL ZFS? In what way would that save you

I actually think Doug was trying to say he wished Oracle would open the

Yes. I don't really care which specific license it is, as long

other FS, and I can use it in production. Until then, it doesn't exist.

Is there any technical difference between using zfs unmount to unmount a ZFS

unmount but some of my colleagues still just use umount. Is there any reason
to use one over the other?
Thanks.

I recently created a test zpool (RAIDZ) on some iSCSI shares. I made a few
test directories and files. When I do a listing, I see something I've never
seen before:

I do realize that NFS is probably better for remote filesystems that have
multiple simultaneous users, but we won't be doing that in this case.
Any major arguments for/against one over the other?
Thanks for any suggestions.

I've got an X4500/thumper that is mainly used as an NFS server.
It has been discussed in the past that NFS performance with ZFS can be slow

understanding is the reason that zfs/nfs is slow in this case is because it is
When we installed the Marvell driver patch 125205-07 on our X4500 a few months
ago and it started crashing, Sun support just told us to back out that patch.
The system has been stable since then.
We are still running Solaris 10 11/06 on that system. Is there an advantage to
using 125205-07
the normal 0-7 partitions? I've already destroyed the pool.

gain is always decreasing the more disks you add to the equation.
From a single 200MB/s fibre, expect some where between 160-180MB/s,
