I have two machines which have a fixed IP-address. Using the sharesmb property I'm trying to get it in such a way that one machine is allowed to read and write and the other machines only read.<br /><br />According to documentation I should be able to use IP-addresses but they don't seem to work.<br /><br />For example i tried:<br />zfs set sharesmb=rw=@192.168.1.2,ro=* mypool<br />zfs set sharesmb=rw=@192.168.1.2/32,ro=* mypool<br /><br />The results are that machine 192.168.1.2 has read only access.

Then run updimg.sh. This is the method to preserve files through an update. The changes should be in effect at next boot. If mdb was available it would be almost instantaneous.

I set it up with a Zpool of 6 .5TB disks in radiz. I have 1 directory shared via CIFS. I have copied windows directories with multiple levels and multiple 5GB files (VHDs)without a problem over the 1GB LAN. I recently added 2 ISCSI volumes so I can mount VHDs in them. The problem is that it is impossible to copy any 40GB VHD without a disconnection to a LUN. I observe only the LUN being written becomes disconnected. It seems 129 requires comstar for ISCSI. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Can the problem be avoided by going back to the old ISCSI target?eriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10972282362489860209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730844193902134967.post-23773459004757621862010-02-03T14:04:40.667-08:002010-02-03T14:04:40.667-08:00Peter,
Based on your 115Mb/s network and 101Mb/s ...Peter,<br /><br />Based on your 115Mb/s network and 101Mb/s disk numbers, I'd say the behavior seen is expected. You have a write bandwidth capability of 1 disk but a read capability of 2 disks by your pool design.<br /><br />As a possible performance increase you can try setting the transaction limit lower so that it doesn't have to flush as many transactions to disk at once. You can try that by adding to /etc/system (default=30)<br />set zfs:zfs_txg_timeout=5 or 1<br /><br />Another possibility may include redesigning your pool to get more disks and bandwidth per pool.<br /><br />You can also try playing with setting zpool property logbias=throughput vs latency in combination with zfs_txg_timeout changes.Andre Luehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06886037020375947489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730844193902134967.post-3042940634616503442010-02-03T00:44:54.589-08:002010-02-03T00:44:54.589-08:00Andre:

(In my case, most system activity was also blocked as some write was impending somewhere, like a syslog update or whatever)<br /><br />This was tuned in recent distro builds, there was some more logic added to make the systems more responsive in these times. One working suggestion was to lower the timeouts (or MB count) at which the ZFS write-to-disk fires.<br /><br />This theoretically lowers the file server performance somewhat (on average) but makes it much more usable during bulk writes (especially if it's also an interactive system).<br /><br />HTH,<br />//JimJimKlimovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03495109327604108101noreply@blogger.com
