I realize this is an old thread, this comment is for future consumers of it. I see this behavior cited frequently, but this is not true. Take this snippet from zpool iostat: pool alloc free read write ---------- ----- ----- ----- ----- poolname 18.6T 101T 2.85K 7.62K...

What are your FW rules? Are you using keep-state?

I had this issue with chromium-25.0.1364.172 on FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE #9 r249101. I ended up recompiling with Clang and it seems to be working fine now.

It isn't a complete system lockup for me. Network/SSH still works and I would imagine serial does as well.

TCP(or any other protocol immediately following the layer 3 IP) Layer 2 LB is done on the destination MAC Layer 3 LB is done on the destination IP Layer 4 LB is done on the combination of destination IP address and port. Layer 5 LB is done on the combination of destination IP address, port...

Neither lagg, nor carp offer L4 load balancing. They use L2 and/or L3.

There are two problems with this approach. One is that of the pages installed via this method, there may be inconsistencies with the actual installed binaries. Two, this method doesn't install the complete man page set and you will miss many entries from commonly used utilities. The real set...

Anonymous "experts" are FUD. Please share what your sources are so everyone can decide if they are indeed experts and if their current storage strategies need to be reevaluated. For me, I trust in the engineering process and review standards that allow these devices to be created and sold on a...

The technology powering SSD's have been around for nearly 30 years and been in widespread use for over 20. How long do you need to feel comfortable? Sure, are you asserting magnetic media doesn't suffer from the same degradation? There are standards for the media so you can plan a strategy...

UFS supports TRIM in more recent builds of FreeBSD, but not in existing releases. ZFS does not, although I believe it's being worked on specifically for FreeBSD. http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Evil_Tuning_Guide This gives some nice info on designing your ZFS + SSD...

Yes, actually an in-place conversion is possible, at least used to be. Although it's a huge PITA and not supported. So the answer to the OP's question is no, it's not convenient.

No, it's really not. /usr is in general the most heavily used partition and errors will show up quicker in heavily used parts. I'm confused by your statements. Do you think a slow death drive fails uniformly over its space? If so you are incorrect, although it approaches uniformity as the...

Except that the compression algo for gzip and bzip2 is built into the tar binary. In your example, your proposed changes will have zero impact.

You can use the zabbix agent to parse the output of gmirror stats/zpool status. As to how to do it, that's a zabbix question and is covered in its documentation.

Is it possible? Yes, quite easily. Should you do it? Well that's another question entirely. Perhaps something to answer first is how good is your tin foil hat?

gstat -f zvol

/etc/rc.conf fsck_y_enable="YES" background_fsck="NO"

Perhaps you should consider some sort of redundancy for the pool.

What do you mean by file system drive? Does it boot off that drive(mirror)? If so, I already answered that question. Any current data on those drives would be lost once you complete the process.
