Re: [zfs-macos] abort zpool replace

2014-10-26 Thread Bjoern Kahl
, installed a new one and made a zpool replace
 disk5s2 806745480046791602. (That number was shown when typing
 zpool status as the missing device.)
 
 The resilver process started, but it seems that the new disk is
 faulty, because it disappears from the device list
 infrequently, but still at least every 6 hours (I have
 Temperature Monitor running which shows me all disks by serial
 number).
 
 So I want to change it. But zpool detach poolname dev/disk5s2
 gives the error no such device in pool.
 
 How can I abort the resilvering process? Or is there another
 way to restart the resilvering with a new disk?
 
 The original disk with the bad block is already on its way to
 Western Digital (it was still in warranty).

 Greetings, everybody!
 
 I've just upgraded Mac OS X to Yosemite.
 
 The upgrade removes MacZFS, and the package in the group repository
 does not allow itself to be installed under Yosemite.

 as Jason and Matt already hinted on:

 If you still use(d) the old MacZFS 74.3.x, then I would suggest to
 switch to O3X [1].  O3X is a new port of ZoL / OpenZFS to the Mac,
 mostly independent of MacZFS, and as such the de facto successor of
 MacZFS.


 
 Can we look forward to a (temporary?) fix in the near future?

 In principle, it is trivial to make the installer run under Yosemite,
 but I would prefer not to do that.

 Lundmann and friends did a great job on bringing up-to-date ZFS to
 up-to-date Mac OS X, so unless you have a good reason to stick with
 MacZFS 74, please give O3X [1] a try.

 yes, quite simple.
 You can change the name while importing the pool:

 zpool import oldname newname

 Of course, it has to be exported first.

 Normalization is not available in file system version 2.
 
 Just to confirm: are you saying MacZFS does not support
 normalization?
 
 Well, at least that will be consistent, then. I thought MacZFS
 support normalization due to several posting which mentioned
 normalization settings, such as: 
 https://code.google.com/p/maczfs/issues/detail?id=53 
 https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/maczfs-devel/afg0R2jITKc/IWxaKv5c6ggJ

 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/zfs-macos/uX2C778Kcv0

 The MacZFS 74.x.x does not support setting an explicit normalization.

 It is supposed to default to formD, i.e. deliver the right thing on
 Mac OS X.  Creating filenames with strange characters like the ö in
 my (correct) name in Finder should simply work.  (Can't recheck right
 now, not at my dev machine.)

 The o3x, OpenZFSonOSX or what ever the current name is does support
 explicit setting of the normalization at file system creation time,
 provided the selected pool version does allow to store the
 normalization flag.

 In short, OpenZFSonOSX, when asked to make a MacZFS 74 pool, i.e. a
 pool with version=8, will refuse to set a normalization form, but will
 accept to set a normalization form when asked to create a pool with a
 recent version.


 As for creating a pool that can use all features supported by
 those solutions, that is impossible
 
 Sorry, that was a typo, I meant, all features commonly supported
 by those solutions, i.e. greatest common denominator.

 The simplest way to do so is to create the pool with MacZFS 74.x.x
 Such a pool can be imported and used under ZoL, ZFS-FUSE (Linux) and
 OpenZFSonOSX.

 It should not show interoperability problems.  If it nevertheless
 does, please report here, so we can figure out which of the four
 implementations is misbehaving - which is not necessarily the one
 where the problem surfaces.

Re: [zfs-macos] RAIDZ1 running slow =(

 when required. I
 can comfortably run Windows in a 20GiB ramdisk that
 fits inside a 10GiB zpool with compression, even on the
 16GiB laptop, and allocating 2GiB of ram for the VM
 itself (10 + 2 for virtualisation  leave 4 for all of
 OSX stuff).
 
 Here’s the zsh functions I use for this.
 
 # create a 1GiB ramdisk ramdisk-1g () { ramdisk-create

 # the generic function for the specific one above 
 ramdisk-create () { diskutil eject /Volumes/ramdisk

 `hdiutil attach -nomount ram://$1` cd /ramdisk }
 
 # make a zpool backed ramdisk instead of the HFS+ ones
 above. Main advantage is compression. I get at least 2x
 more “disk” for RAM with this approach. zdisk () { sudo

 There has been no activity on that mailing list in about 3 months!
 I'd say this is an indication that MacZFS was dead dead dead, were
 it not for the apparently frequent check-ins to Github.

 As Lund already said, there is indeed a lot of development going on for
 the new MacZFS prototype, also known as ZFS-OSX.

 There is less work happening to the current stable MacZFS, which saw
 its last 74.3.3 release two weeks ago.  It is currently in maintenance
  bug fix-only mode, due to the focus on the new prototype version.


 Can anyone enlighten me what exactly is happening to this list? Is
 there a new and better channel of comms for the dev community? Has
 it been abandoned? The drop from a regular stream of activity to
 ghost town mode in December seems rather abrupt.

 We have two mailing lists:

 zfs-macos@googlegroups.com:

 The main list for all users to asks for help, discuss features, or
 chat about anything else related to ZFS on Mac.

 While you are right there was too much silents in recent days, I felt
 it more like a gradual decline that reached near-zero in January than
 an abrupt stop.

 Out of curiosity, I did a quick statistic:
 5 active topics in August 2013, 4 active topics in September, 9 in
 October, 5 in November, 7 in December 2013, 1 in January 2014, 10 in
 February.  Looks like we gain momentum again.


 maczfs-de...@googlegroups.com:

 The main development list, originally meant to discuss the new
 prototype version and coordinate development between those involved.
 Unfortunately, most contributors other than Lund left last summer, so
 MacZFS-devel is dead, at least until development returns to the more
 collaborative model it had in spring 2013.

 Currently, almost all communication regarding the new prototype MacZFS
 takes place in our IRC channel #mac-zfs at irc.freenode.net or
 http://webchat.freenode.net/
 Of course, IRC, being an interactive protocol and as such a volatile
 form of communication, is not a good replacement for a lively mailing
 list in my opinion, but it is probably your best bet at the moment.

 I would much love to see MacZFS-devel revived and more people return,
 but there is little I can do.

 Hi Rob,

 In the You can't tell the players without a program department:
 
 I'm an interested lurker and am confused about the relationships
 between all the various entities apparently involved in ZFS for
 Mac.
 
 Could someone please explain how they all fit together:

 There are a few implementations (see below) and different pool and FS
 versions, supported by various releases of these implementations.  For
 an overview of pool and FS version, please see
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZFS#Detailed_release_history

 For the different implementations, read on:

 
 MacZFS

 This is the stable branch.

 It originates in the abandoned port from Apple also known as 10a286
 or zfs-119 bits.  Apple originally planned to include ZFS in Snow
 Leopard Server but removed it (and any mention of the word ZFS) from
 its website and the product shortly before release.  Reasons
 officially unknown.

 MacZFS is meant for the everyday Mac user who wants a Mac like
 solution without rough edge.  Unfortunately we had a difficult time
 with the Mavericks adaption, but that is solved now.

 MacZFS' current release is MacZFS-74.3.3 and is maintained by me
 (Björn aka BjoKaSH).  It has a rather old pool and FS version (8 and 2)

 It is expected to be phased-out sometime this year, when ZFS-OSX
 reaches its first general public release.


 OpenZFS for Mac ZFS-OSX

 These two are the same.  ZFS-OSX is a new port to the Mac, independent
 of Apples old code.  It uses ZoL (ZFS on Linux) as its source and a
 few bits from FreeBSD and the old MacZFS.

 ZFS-OSX is the name of the principal source code repository and the
 GitHub project hosting its source.

 OpenZFS is a cross vendor / project initiative to unify the various
 ZFS implementations from all supported platforms (illumos, *BSD,
 Linux, Mac OSX, ...) and to coordinate new features and generally
 promote ZFS.  See http://open-zfs.org/wiki/Main_Page for details.

 ZFS-OSX is part of of this initiative.

 ZFS-OSX does not have installer releases meant for the general public
 so far, but these are expected later this year.  ZFS-OSX is maintained
 by Lundman, who is the principal developer and did the vast majority
 of work porting ZoL to Mac OSX.


 Both MacZFS and ZFS-OSX are run by the same people and as such not
 only cooperate but behind the scenes are a common effort to keep ZFS
 on Mac OSX a reality.



 ZEVO

 ZEVO is or was a new implementation of ZFS for Mac OX based of the SUN
 and later illumos source code.  ZEVO was developed by a company called
 Tens Complement run by the former principal developer of ZFS at Apple.

 ZEVO was a modern but closed-source implementation for Leopard and
 Snow Leopard with an active (Beta-) User community disparate from the
 MacZFS community.

 ZEVO's development apparently stopped when TensComplement was bought by
 Greenbytes.  The current status and plans of ZEVO at Greenbytes is
 unknown to me.


 others?

 None I am aware of.


 With appreciation,

 You are welcome.  Guess we should update our Wiki to include a better
 explanations of the various implementations.

 @ Lundman: Feel free to comment on anything I missed, especially
   regarding the state of ZFS-OSX.

 @ Daniel: Maybe we should extend our FAQ or add an entire new page?

[zfs-macos] New stable release: MacZFS-74.3.3 (Installer, Leopard to Mavericks)

2014-02-21 Thread Bjoern Kahl
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


 Dear All,

 I am happy to present the next installment of the MacZFS stable branch.

 The new package MacZFS-74.3.3.pkg fixes two problems in the 74.3.2
 which caused frequent panics on Mavericks systems.

 Change log:
 - fixed issue 120 creating new symlinks in ZFS volume crashes OSX
10.9 Mavericks
 - fixed issue 126 Kernel panic on boot/reboot after defining pool 

 - also closes duplicate issues 124, 125, 129 and 132
 - includes testing and analysis tools ztest and zdb
 - The kext and all tools contain a version code.  The kext will refuse
   to work with outdated zfs tools.

 This is - as the 74.3.2 already was - expected to be the last release
 of the stable MacZFS 7x.y series before the big leap forward to the new
 generation of ZFS for OSX.


  -- *Note* --

 The new package is *only* available from our new download service at
 downloads.maczfs.org.

 The reason is, that Google code banned each and all project from
 creating new downloads within the Google Code system.  So we moved
 to out own site.

 -- -- --


 Note^2:
 The maczfs.org isn't fully operational yet: On download you may get
 redirected to maczfs.bjokaservers.de.  That's ok, it is one of my
 (Björn aka BjoKaSH) machines holding the files at the moment.
