    omnios napp-it no_root_squash

    I am unable to create openvz container on NFS share. I read somewhere that no_root_squash parameter needs to be added on the NFS share on omnios napp-it.

    Ceph vs zfs (openindiana+napp-it) Which one is better?

    Ceph vs zfs (openindiana+napp-it) Which one is better?

    I have read somewhere in this forum that if ZFS reaches around 80% of it's capacity, the performance drops 10 x times slower due to fragmentation. Is this true?

    Ceph vs zfs (openindiana+napp-it) Which one is better?

    Hi All, From what I have read on this forum, user mir is an expert on zfs and Wasim (Symcon) is an expert on ceph.
