Following my previous post across several mailing lists regarding multi-tera volumes with small files on them, I'd be glad if people could share real life numbers on large filesystems and their experience with them. I'm slowly coming to a realization that regardless of theoretical filesystem capabilities (1TB, 32TB, 256TB or more), more or less across the enterprise filesystem arena people are recommending to keep practical filesystems up to 1TB in size, for manageability and recoverability.
What's the maximum filesystem size you've used in production environment? How did the experience come out? Thanks, -Yaniv (p.s. I think for ZFS, "large zpools" can be considered more apropriate to classic FS terms of "large filesystems". would you agree?)
