I have moved over to using ZoL simply because I am more comfortable in Linux than the SunOS children.
I currently am using ZoL on three systems. My desktop(G630/16GB RAM) with a 4 drive RAIDZ that was created on OpenIndiana. A HP Microserver N40L(4GB RAM) with a two drive mirror created in Linux. My VM datastore(G34 6128/32GB RAM), also created on OI.
My experience has been rather painless with one exception. I added RAM to my single G34 system, 16GB to 32GB, and started experiencing hardlocks. Browsing through the bug reports, it seems there is a problem with NUMA machines with large amounts of RAM. From what I have been able to surmise, each G34 chip is seen as two NUMA nodes.
Anyone else using ZoL? If so, what are your experiences?
