molmol

Molmol is the File Server. See also: MoneyMoneyMoney/NewStorage.

Hardware

The "Sick of your moaning" design is *almost* what we have. Except the PSU, case, SAS expander card, and (hopefully soon) an SSD bay. It is basically the same. People who care to correct this.

Root Filesystem

There are 2 SSDs, partitioned with a GUID Partition Table (GPT).

  • Partition 1 on both stores the boot loader (Grub).
  • Partition 2 on sda will contain a FreeBSD partition.
  • Partition 2 on sdb stores a RAID group which holds a LVM group, containing /, /boot and swap.
  • Partition 3 on both forms a mirror for the ZFS SLOG (journal).
  • Partition 4 on both forms a spanned (i.e. not mirrored) ZFS L2ARC (disk cache).
