netritious | Wow...another article championing ZFS over brtfs: http://rudd-o.com/linux-and-free-software/ways-in-which-zfs-is-better-than-btrfs | 15:16 |
netritious | I say 'wow' because that's the third or fourth one this year I've read. | 15:16 |
netritious | *btrfs | 15:17 |
wrst | netritious: from all account zfs kicks btrfs bad | 15:27 |
wrst | and you pair it up with something like freenas its so easy I can do it :) | 15:27 |
netritious | lol wrst | 15:35 |
wrst | and good morning netritious :) | 15:36 |
netritious | good morning to you wrst :) | 15:36 |
netritious | I'm fairly convinced I will be moving to freenas sometime this year. | 15:37 |
netritious | I'm starting to wonder why I drank the linux koolaid all those ywars ago seeing as I keep going back to BSDs | 15:38 |
netritious | *years | 15:38 |
netritious | oh I remember...freebsd couldn't run vmware server heh | 15:41 |
wrst | for me I like how freenas operates like an appliance more or less set it and forget it | 15:54 |
netritious | pretty much the same with pfsense | 16:00 |
wrst | for me the defualts are plenty good enough also | 16:01 |
wrst | so I don't need to think, I like not thinking :) | 16:01 |
twayneprice | Have either of you used freenas in a cluster so if 1 box goes down, the other still works? | 16:34 |
wrst | twayneprice: I use it at home just for storage, so i have no pro experience whatsever | 16:39 |
wrst | its just easy and idiot proof for me :) | 16:39 |
wrst | but I wonder if truenas wouldn't be more what you are looking for, especially if support is needed, looks like it adds severla features for serious work | 16:41 |
cyberanger | I still love Debian, and Kali is a nice desktop OS (however I still prefer Openbox) | 16:44 |
cyberanger | but gotta say, after dealing with FreeBSD more, I wish I had pfsense here | 16:45 |
cyberanger | or monitoring on cisco | 16:45 |
cyberanger | wrst: yeah, been looking into truenas for an upcoming deployment | 16:46 |
wrst | I have absolutely no need at all for one of those ixsystems boxes but they really look cool :) | 16:47 |
twayneprice | wrst: truenas looks pretty neat. We already have the hardware, though. :( | 16:50 |
cyberanger | twayneprice: I haven't yet used either in a cluster, we're moving that way though | 16:51 |
wrst | oh yeah twayneprice keep forgetting that | 16:53 |
twayneprice | We just had one of the bricks in our HP SAN go down and it was pretty nice that it could still run while we waited on parts. | 16:57 |
twayneprice | nice but very expensive. :) | 17:01 |
wrst | oh I bet :) | 17:04 |
netritious | hey cyberanger, twayneprice | 17:45 |
netritious | was just reading about openfiler | 17:45 |
twayneprice | hey netritious | 17:45 |
netritious | looks like it uses corosync, pacemaker, and drbd for clustering. | 17:46 |
