Hi Team,
A kind-of follow up to my post from earlier this week on ADSM-L(http://adsm.org/lists/html/ADSM-L/2009-09/msg00115.html) around the use of TSM Server with ZFS volumes on Solaris 10.
I’m curious as to whether anyone else out there is using ZFS for DB, log or stgpool volumes (either raw or volumes in the fs) and in particular how performant, or otherwise, the perception of it is and whether any particular tuning parameters with it have been helpful.
I’ve seen one article on IBM.com which suggests some poor performance with DISK stgpool volumes (http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=663&tcss=Newsletter&uid=swg21390367) but it’s not clear to me whether Sun have fixed the bug on their side.
The underlying disk storage here is EMC DMX4 (mix of 146GB and 300GB 15k disks), the TSM Server platform is 5.5.3.0 on a Sun Fire T2000 with 32GB RAM on Solaris 10.
Any input or experiences shared is gratefully appreciated…
Cheers,
