Good morning to you to :-) Yeah, I thought there may be some recommended tuneables for ZFS in a virtua= lised setting. I read about problems with ARC cache size on low memory / lo= w free memory systems which could lead to a panic if the ARC size grows to = some kernel memory limit, so restricting the ARC cache size may be needed. = But you are right, it seems I just have to throw myself in to the water and= find out if I can swim.=20 Thank you, Best Ray
