Just as I create a ZFS pool and copy the root partition to it.... the performance seems to be really good then suddenly the system hangs all my sesssions and displays on the console:
Oct 10 00:23:28 sunrise arcmsr: WARNING: arcmsr0: dma map got 'no resources' Oct 10 00:23:28 sunrise arcmsr: WARNING: arcmsr0: dma allocate fail Oct 10 00:23:28 sunrise arcmsr: WARNING: arcmsr0: dma allocate fail free scsi hba AR1100 was running in JBOD mode and write-back caching under Solaris Express Xen Drop b66 07/07. Never had problem this setup under linux under heavy load. ARECA SATA-SAS RAID Host Adapter Driver(i386) 1.20.00.13,REV=2006.08.14 I filed a support ticket with Areca with areca already. Anyone you explain me what the error message is about? Would turning off write-back help? I am going to try that. Here is the log of what I did to setup the controller using the areca cli: # Select current controller: set curctrl=1 set password=0000 GuiErrMsg<0x00>: Success. rsf delete raid=1 GuiErrMsg<0x00>: Success.
