Hi, I posted earlier about some results with this same system using UFS2. Now trying to test ZFS. This is a Dell PE2950 with two Perc6 controllers and 4 md1000 disk shelves with 750GB drives. 16GB RAM, dual quad core Xeon. I recompiled our kernel to use the ULE scheduler instead of default. I could not get through an entire run of iozone without a system reboot/crash. ZFS is clearly labeled experimental, of course. It seems to die for sure around 10 processes, sometimes less (this is the end of my output from iozone): Children see throughput for 10 readers = 135931.72 KB/sec Parent sees throughput for 10 readers = 135927.24 KB/sec Min throughput per process = 13351.26 KB/sec Max throughput per process = 14172.05 KB/sec Avg throughput per process = 13593.17 KB/sec Min xfer = 31586816.00 KB Some zpool info below - each volume below is a raid6 of 30PD on one controller. I may try different hardware volume configs for fun. zpool create test mfid0 mfid2 # pool is automatically mounted at /test # pool: test # state: ONLINE # scrub: none requested #config: # # NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM # test ONLINE 0 0 0 # mfid0 ONLINE 0 0 0 # mfid2 ONLINE 0 0 0 # #errors: No known data errors -Ben
