Hi!
I need a new storage as DR-backup for some windows-servers.
The goal is:
- Copy Diffs from NTFS-filer to ZFS-filer
- Take Snapshot
- Repeat
The system should have enough performance to have the possibility for a fast restore.
Can you give me some hints?
- ZIL
In the past, i have only been using systems with a fast SLOG-device, but here, sync=disable could be an option.
--> Is sync=disable always faster than sync=standard with optane-ZIL?
--> Is there any risk in my setup except loosing 10s of data?
- Full-Flash
--> Do you see any benefit of a full-flash-system with ZFS, or would you go with many spindles?
Thank you for your help!
