Re: Mirrors unsynched

We sure have been having problems with our server. Long story short we have been having IOPS issues and it resulted in a very very unclean shutdown of the server. I was unable to recover one dataset in ZFS. Unfortunately it was the largest one being the fedora buffet. I've been pulling the data back in as fast as I can with the current server. It is a fine line between pulling data in, serving data out, and having the server light on fire. I do know that ZFS with 17T of active data on a box with 64G of ram is simply not a good mix. I'm working on going back to LVM with XFS. I still don't have replacement hardware that I trust so my ability to move forward is limited. There is talk about having mirrors.rit.edu become an officially supported production service instead of the current model of "This is what I have, let's see what works". Of course the talks for this are moving at the speed of bureaucracy.

We have detected that your mirrors seem not to be updated since (at much) August 21rst, are you having any problems synching them? Cheers! -- David Caro Red Hat S.L.
