RaidZ Test

So I downloaded BeleniX and ran it under VMWare.

At first, I used 3 SCSI hard drives, but could not figure out for the life of me what the names were... Kept getting I/O errors when I ran tools to find out.

Redid it as 3 (cuz the CDRom took one of the slots) IDE drives (1GB each).

So far so good. It doesn't have Xen support yet, and I don't really feel like trying it right now since it is a LiveCD and all changes are lost when I reboot the vm -- maybe later.

  1. I tried to extend the test a little...

    # zfs create mypool/local
    # zfs create mypool/iscsi
    # zfs set shareiscsi=on mypool/iscsi
    # zfs set compression=on mypool/iscsi
    # zfs create -V 300M mypool/iscsi/vol001
    cannot share 'mypool/iscsi/vol001': iscsitgtd failed request to share
    filesystem successfully created, but not shared
