[OmniOS-discuss] 4kn or 512e with ashift=12

[Fred Liu]

So, you can “zpool create –o ashift=12” in illumos? I can’t do that in smartos at least….

Hi Fred.

Definitely, the ashift parameter has been around on the illumos for a couple of years.

thanks,

Geoff

The ashift parameter doesn't apply in illumos if my memory serves me well. It was introduced by ZoL.

Thanks.

Quick, question.

Any performance differences between 4Kn and 512e with ashift=12?

I am thinking there should not be, since they will both write the full
4K block size.

The workload will be virtual machines using a zvol.

thanks,

Geoff
