Hi all,
This is my second post on the forum. Preparing to build a FreeNAS appliance (had another thread about HW choices and this is clear) and I have a question:
Because I have less experience of ZFS I'm wondering what happens if it suffers from a power outage? I intend to use 32GB ECC - This amount of ram will be filled with data/metadata correct? Supposing we have a process working...like copy/download.
If FreeNAS will not boot....well I guess fsck -t ufs -y /dev/* will fix it.
What about mounting the zpool? Can it be affected? If yes how can it be prevented (i know: ups...not an option) is there anything else @ the software level I can do?
thank you
