Whats the better way ? https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2016-July/023498.html Whats the better way depends of your needs, if you can afford to lose "some" data use ZFS replication with something like zrep, otherwise I would you with ZFS + iSCSI (which is what I use in production here), but be very careful with "automatic failover". =20 If it can help this is what I use for my failover script:=20 https://gist.github.com/silenius/cb10171498071bdbf6040e30a0cab5c2 (it relies extensively on CARP, so be sure to choose good NICs) >=20 >=20 >=20 >=20 > ---Mike >=20 >=20 >=20 > --=20 > ------------------- > Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 > Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net > Providing Internet services since 1994 www.sentex.net > Cambridge, Ontario Canada http://www.tancsa.com/ --=20 Julien Cigar Belgian Biodiversity Platform (http://www.biodiversity.be) PGP fingerprint: EEF9 F697 4B68 D275 7B11 6A25 B2BB 3710 A204 23C0 No trees were killed in the creation of this message.
