Hi Matt,
cool, thank you for doing this!
I'll still write my script since today my two shiny new 320GB USB
disks will arrive :).
I'll add to that the feature to first send all current snapshots, then
bring down the services that depend on the filesystem, unmount the old
fs, send a final

Unfortunately we don't have experience with NexSAN.
HDS are quite conservative and with a value of 8 we run quite stable (with UFS).
Also we found that value appropiate for old HP EMA arrays (old units but very
very reliable! Digital products were rocks)

Hi everyone,
Sorry for crossposting but it seems I have stumbled upon a problem
that affects both. I have a V490 running Solaris 10u3 with a 16x750GB
raid array connected to it. I've created an 8TB zfs filesystem called
data1 and created a zfs filesystem called data1/zones mounted to
/zones.
Hi Jim,
that's absolutely great, respect.
Where is it possible to get more infos about what you have done so far?
to rebuild that for a own try?
cheers

Yes, running Solaris as Dom0.
I will be letting each domain owner choose their own OS for their DomU.
I will also be running some unmodified DomU (like JNODE), which is why I

Since `zpool list` shows a SIZE=1.13T (which I assume is also how much space

CVS supports binary files.
Just to clarify,
If we wanted to do this with ZFS as the entire disk (where we currently have
UFS), would we copy everything over (the cpio bit) to an uninvolved
filesystem, then do the zpool on the disks that used to have UFS (and the
one we are mirroring to) -- thus destroying the original UFS

However, even with sequential writes, a large I/O size makes a huge difference
in throughput. Ask the QFS folks about data capture applications. ;-)
