My ESX 6.5 vhost is running out of space. I thought using ZFS in past, swap smaller drives with bigger allow to resilver and keep replacing drives and it's done. Well....not sure my HP Proliant can....anyone with experience?
I have a HP Proliant G6 DL380 w/ (5) 146gb SAS drives (RAID5) on...
Running OmniOS on a SuperMicro box w/ 6 600GB SAS drives (zPool) as ISCSI target. My XenServers both report only 250MB in use (I moved all my VM's off to clear snapshots) however keep getting emails from the server ZFS is near capacity which I know it's not. I read somewhere the only recourse...
The reporting bad HD is as follows per smartctl; *shrug* looks good?

Running Napp-IT (thanks Gea), I'm curious on the thoughts on the following DD Benchmark?

Well, that's what we did was remove the drive physically. But why would rebooting to box in the default BE keep rebooting? In my 20 years experience in Servers, I've not had a NON-ROOT drive cause this...and I've seen a lot. I have OmniTI looking into it....their answer - upgrade to latest...
Subject says it all. Server built, detailed here . Added (4) more identical SAS Drives to expand

status: The pool is formatted using a legacy on-disk format. The pool can...
Upgraded a 3 year old Dual Quadcore 12 bay SuperMicro box over this past weekend. Added 64GB RAM, added a LSI SAS 9211-8i HBA next to an existing SuperMicro SATA Card. The bottom shelf of the chassis is SATA (4) wide. Bay 1 & 2 are controlled by the on-board SATA controller while 3 & 4 are...

I just wrapped up a trip to a datacenter that "centered" around upgrading our SuperMicro box with 62GB RAM, (4) Intel s3700 SSD's and dropping in a LSI9211-8i controller running the other (8) SAS 600GB HS disks in the shelf. Installed OMNIOS, and in the midst of configuring my mirror...
