It seems it should be 8k (default DB page size) for data files. Yes, I've read this article , it was useful. However, almost all links for "PostgreSQL ZFS" discuss Solaris installations. And I'd like to hear some FreeBSD-specific notes. For example, long ago it was recommended to set...

Hello. I'm going to deploy new database server. Has someone tuned PostgreSQL on ZFS? It's interesting, what is the preferred value for wal_sync_method? Has someone turned full_page_writes off?

I've created directory /usr/local/share/chromium/plugins/ and symbolic link /usr/local/share/chromium/plugins/libflashplayer.so -> /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so This helped... Now it would be good to make chromium store his passwords in kwallet. I guess I just...

Chromium and flash Hello. I've just installed chromium from ports. In some aspects it's better then Firefox (it seems to be lighter) and Konqueror (HTML5 support, normal work with google buzz). But I haven't managed to install Adobe Flash yet. I have npwrapper.libflashplayer.so in...

Hello. I've just found out interesting thing. I use 8.0-stable and observed the same behavior on 8.1-release. I tried to create ecpg (embedded SQL) program for PostgreSQL. The program linked but gave strange error (sqlca structure wasn't passed correctly to user program). I found out that...

I was trying to trace syscall:::open:entry. So it seems to be not related to userland DTrace support.

I've just found out, why I got something like /usr/lib/dtrace/psinfo.d", line 37: syntax error near "uid_t" I had following options in config (on i386): options KDTRACE_HOOKS options DDB_CTG But without makeoptions DEBUG=-g I received the mentioned above error trying to run any dtrace...

My experience maybe not quite adequate (I experimented with 8.0 => 8.1 upgrade on VirtualBox VM with 1 MBR-labeled disk and zfsboot). 1) freebsd-update (don't remember, on which state) installed non-zfs enabled booter. 2) I have a strong feeling that source upgrade would be faster :)

I would like to create test PostgreSQL server and very interested in DTrace probes for DBMS. Has someone succesfully built and used PostgreSQL with DTrace support on STABLE or CURRENT?

I've just tried wine-1.1.30 from 8.0 release package collection. It works for me. At least, there is no this particular error. (However, as always with wine, there are other bugs :))

I have the same problem. Partial fix is to disable DRI in xorg.conf completely. This allows me to run old windows games... Has someone found more adequate solution? I wish I had more time to investigate this issue...

1) slapd.conf should be situated in /usr/local/etc/openldap 2) Above mentioned tutorial contains at least one error - linking ldap.conf for nss_ldap to client openldap's ldap.conf. So, please, read more on subject (I'm not ready to provide some links now...)

Security is not the only advantage of jails. For example, you want to upgrade your DB server. Your steps without jails: upgrading DBMS, exporting your data, importing your data. And if something goes wrong - reinstalling old version, restoring data, etc... With jails - I copy existing jail to...

Just came to another annoying thing: FreeBSD doesn't support ZFS v 4. It makes zfs send|zfs recv impossible... tar is our best friend. Installing 32-bit world (and some 32-bit ports) to make wine work is an overhead. I don't like this idea... I'll try i386 first. I have only 2 Gb of RAM, so I...

Some updates on this story. I've just installed FreeBSD 8.1 on one disk from Solaris zfs mirror. Unfortunately, I forgot to detach this disk from Solaris pool. Now I have FreeBSD on one disk and OpenSolaris on other. However I hit OpenSolaris 6923585 bug and couldn't boot OpenSolaris. (I wanted...

Oh, I was wrong. There is "jailed" property on zfs. You may try "zfs set jailed=on pool/fs". I've tried, but it seems to be broken in some way on my box (possibly, related to this: http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=208684 )

AFAIK, this functionality is not implemented...

It seems to be wrong. # zfs get quota tank/jails/diffs/openid NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE tank/jails/diffs/openid quota none default # zfs set quota=100M tank/jails/diffs/openid cannot set property for 'tank/jails/diffs/openid'...

I'm not sure about FreeBSD 4.11 (I haven't touched this one), but usually you have to use vipw to edit passwd and master.passwd. In other case you should regenerate spwd.db and pwd.db by hand. In recent FreeBSD it is done by pwd_mkdb (8).

Basic multipathing support is here - look at geom_fox (4) man page... However, it seems that there is no load balancing.
