Okay, even in 2025, there are still sites that can only be accessed via IPv4. Today: download.zfsonlinux.org. Why is that, #zfsonlinux? The service you use in the background also supports dual-stack mode.

Arch Linux на ZFS для людей: новый TUI-установщик archinstall_zfs

Установка Arch Linux на ZFS всегда была не очень тривиальным делом: нужно знать много тонкостей, прочитать кучу статей и различные вики, разобраться с флагами создания датасетов и пула, с конфигурацией initramfs и с тем, какие systemd сервисы стоит включать, с параметрами командной строки ядра и правильными конфигами. Если ставить вручную, то установка занимает целый вечер, с вдумчивым раскуриванием мануалов перед черной консолью. А можно ли проще?

I wish that when I add another mirror to a vdev in ZFS it would only scan that vdev to resilver because it would be way faster than scanning the entire zpool. I can't find a way to do this though. The current estimated time for resilvering less than 80GiB. is "no estimated completion time", but occasionally goes down to "3 days", even though it should take less than an hour & a half.

It seems like scanning the entire zpool instead of only the affected one is wasting bandwidth, causing the resilvering data to be issued at very low speed (5MiB./s.). I bet more CPU time & memory could be used for it to speed it up a little too because it's currently using very little resources. Are there some settings I can adjust to change how ZFS handles resilvering & system resource usage?

So I think I'm going to try this on my desktop. Not today. Probably not tomorrow. Possibly/probably Saturday.

Is #zfsonlinux a good idea?

Having the hardest time getting nixos to let me use zfs on /nix/store, anyone else solved this issue? #nixos #zfsonlinux

I am quickly realizing that a 2x 1TB mirror ZFS pool does not, in fact, give me a whole lot of space (rather, only 1TB of it, how shocking). Confronted with the realization that I do actually have more than 1 TB of data I'd like to put on the pool, I need to expand my ZFS array.

How should I go about doing this?

I have another old (08/'15 with okay stats) 1TB drive laying next to the server, and a 3TB drive that I can probably shovel stuff off of. Should I make another vdev with the 1TB + 3TB drives in another mirror I guess? I hate to waste that space, but I don't have the money right now to buy drives / a proper server. I would upgrade to Raid-Z1 and make it 3x 1TB, but that's not possible. So I think another mirror vdev of 1+3TB is my best choice right now, and then later down the line when I get a job I build a *proper* server with actual/better/larger drives and transfer it (*the whole pool) over.

Sound like a plan? Thoughts?

Nice!

Fedora Server 40 with a ZFS root on the latest Kernel 6.10 (and ZFS 2.2.5) works super nice!

I'm very happy to announce that my talk about ZFS and #postgresql will go live the 13th June at 12:00 PM CEST at the #posetteconf.

Please join the conference to have a nice conversation.
