    napp-it can't setup local groups for acl

    The Solaris/OmniOS SMB server is based on nfsv4 ACL. You can set nfsv4 ACL locally via chmod but not remotely from a Linux client as Linux only supports the much simpler (and incompatible) Posix ACL model. Modifying nfsv4 ACL via chmod is not as easy, using Windows that is build to modify ntfs...

    napp-it can't setup local groups for acl

    I would use SMB only, also for Linux/OSX/Unix clients and set ACL remote from Windows. For Linux an additional item is the incompatibility of the Posix ACL model of Linux to the ntfs/nfs4 ACL model in Windows or Solaris

    napp-it can't setup local groups for acl

    NFS access restrictions are not so easy. With NFS3 there is no authentication or authorisation beside some host/ip based basic ones. Depending on server or client, a file is written under the uid of a user or as nobody. NFS4 offers authentication or authorisation but is not as easy to implement...

    Home Server/NAS setup

    For a "one for all server/NAS" a uATX AMD/Intel system with a current medium class CPU (4 core or more) with 32-64GB RAM is ok. ECC RAM is a plus but only AMD entry level systems support this on some mainboards. AMD cpus with graphic only support ECC in the Pro editions. You should look for a...

    What storage approach and drives would you go for?

    With a DAS concept (local arrays for local apps), you only need enough disk bays. Depending on data you can asume 100-150 MB/s per hd, 500 MB/s per SSD and 1000+ MB/s per NVMe. In a raid array ex Raid-6 or ZFS Z2 data is striped over disks but not linear, more a factor like 1,5 ex a raid Z2 of...

    ZFS on OSX and Windows

    Windows NAS considerations I have collected some considerations for a Windows NAS, now as OpenZFS on Windows is near to a release state and Windows Storage Spaces is an often underestimated method to pool disks of different size or speed...

    Proxmox as high performance RDMA ZFS NAS and VM Server

    Posix ACL on a Proxmox NAS https://napp-it.org/doc/downloads/proxmox.pdf While not as feature rich as ntfs/nfs4 ACL, they are good enough tocontrol access fur multiple users. I started to integrate Posix management into a new napp-it menu Filesystems > ACL management A first preview in newest...

    Slow NVME performance

    I would - test the two nvme individually (in case one is bad) - compare with a virtual disk under ESXi control (rule out passthrough problem) - optionally: compare with a barebone OmniOS

    ZFS on OSX and Windows

    As I understand it Some apps ask for filesystem type. If not fat*, ntfs or Refs they refuse to work ex start the application from a ZFS pool. As long as Microsoft (or OSX) does not add ZFS (or btrfs) to the list of valid filesystems there is a need of an overrun option. There is an additional...
