#raid6 — Public Fediverse posts

Pequeño adelanto del nuevo servidor que estoy configurando que va a correr únicamente Mastodon Uruguay, gemelo al actual. Todo indica que vamos a contar con un RAID-6 con 10x1TB HDD SATA3 #undernet #mejoras #mantenimiento #mastodon #servidor #autogestion #raid #raid6

12 Tage war #FreshRSS krank. Nun läuft es wieder, Gott sei Dank.

✅ #Restore mit #restic
✅ Havarierte InnoDB repariert und Datenbestand gerettet
✅ Containerlandschaft mit #nginx ProxyManager und aktueller #MariaDB via #Podman lokal
✅ Deployment auf 24x7 Server mit #RAID6

Nun fehlt noch das Upgrade von 1.19 auf die aktuelle Release. Habe das lange sträflich schludern lassen, aber in der aktuellen Containerlandschaft ist es auch leichter, alles sauber zu halten.

Jetzt hab' ich einen #RaspberryPi 1 über...

question for tech-y storage people: I just nabbed 4 extra (used) disks with a 6 TB capacity from a place that re-sells electronics (oregonrecycles.com); I think they did some testing but obviously I dunno what to extent, and also, if it was just limited to stuff like SMART data, well...

anyway, I wanna RAID it, which is fine, but I don't know how much lifetime these have left on them. For four disks with unknown usage, should I use RAID6 or RAID10? It's not job critical data I'll be storing on these (mostly media and such). They'll eventually be migrated into a larger RAID array but that won't happen until I'm stable and can afford to rebuild my server so this is fine for now.

I wouldn't mind the better read/write performance that comes with RAID10 even though it has less parity. I suspect these disks were all used together so they might have similar wear/tear patterns; in that case, I'm wondering if RAID6's double parity actually buys me any extra life? Like, given 4 disks with the same history and a probably known disk failure rate, I'm not really clear as to whether double parity is going to make much of a difference (and that if one goes down, the others probably aren't too far behind).

He wrote a similar article in 2010 about how #RAID 6 would be dead by 2019.

#storage #raid5 #raid6

I was really worried about why the RAID drives on our new #Linux #server were so noisy. A quick "write" noise every second, like a heartbeat.

Some investigation revealed that a "journal" service seemed to be writing ~512k of data every second, and only when I had that exact amount did my googling/ducking generate a useful result:

When I set up the #raid6 stuff, I did a "lazy" ext4 formatting, so the OS keeps doing that extremely slow and noisy process in the background.

Non-lazy reformat, go!

I am looking for a tutorial/advice/best-practice on how to setup a #debian server with multiple disks on #ext4. Machine for now should just be used as a fileserver until we integrate the #infrastructure into #proxmox. Still I am unsure how to format the disks. Looking at previous setups we used #raid1 for the root partition and #raid6 for all additional disks. I am just not sure how or where #lvm should come into play...

Anyone have experience deploying #btrfs in #raid5 / #raid6 configurations? I'm aware of the mdadm raid5/6+lv+btrfs approach Synology uses, and I've got a UPS and read-heavy workload so I don't really care about the native raid5/6 write hole but from everything I'm reading the "off the shelf" industry solution appears to be #zfs in raidz/raid2z

#homelab

Irgendwas ist im letztem Jahr mit #Btrfs passiert. Die letzten Tage erfolgreich ein #RAID6 mit 8 Devices repariert bei dem einew total ausgefallen ist, eines immer wieder am sterben war und wärend der Reparatur ein weiteres gestorben ist.
Das hätte das FS vor mehr als einem Jahr noch Nicht im Ansatz überlebt.

Okay, tell me why this is a horrible idea

I have 6x4TB HDDs, and 1x144GiB SSD

I want to take the following config:
- 5 HDDs form a #raid6 #LVM array
- 1 HDD is used either as a hot spare or normal disk (with a USB drive as hot spare)
- 1 SSD used as an LVM #cache

The bare drives will all be encrypted, so LVM on #LUKS. I will then put in 256 GiB swap, and the rest to #btrfs

On top of that I install #CoreOS

@nuron @ij
Ja gerade bei den Stichwörtern "unterschiedlicher Größen" und "flexiblen Verbund" ist #btrfs ein sehr gute und zu Empfehlende Wahl.
Aktuell sollte man halt noch nicht #raid5 und #raid6 nehmen.
Man kann #btrfs aber erst mal mit #raid1c4 gründen und später problemlos umconvertieren.
Aktuell habe ich bspw. ein #btrfs mit 60 HDD von 250G-16T im einsatz, das mal als #raid1c4 gestartet hat und aktuell als #raid1c3 läuft.
Sobald #raid6 stabil ist, convertiere ich das dann online um.

@schenklklopfer Es geht, #RAID0 #RAID1 #RAID1C3 #RAID1C4 gehen problemlos und #RAID5 und #RAID6 für die DATA Chunks gehen auch; Man sollte nur dann für die METADATA und SYSTEM Chunks #RAID1C3 nehmen.

#100DaysOfHomeLab #Day4of100

So another update from me, because sometimes things go slow. I've booted a #NixOS live image and the #badblocks program is running a check of my four 4TB drives (been running for 86 hrs and done 84% I think the last time I checked).

I did change my decision to use #NILFS2 & #RAID6. After deliberate consideration I've switched my choice to #ZFS with #RAID10.
— no longer NILFS2 because it doesn't have compression and ZFS even includes the kitchen sink
- 1/2

#100DaysOfHomeLab #Day3of100

So after more reading tonight for my *BACKUP* server (that will be its main purpose) I have decided to:
— create a 4 disk #RAID6 array with #mdadm
— have it use #NILFS2 as its file system (with continual #checkpoints and manual #snapshots)
— use @nixos_org as OS

I understand it have a performance hit, from both these decisions, but this will be the biggest part in my backup strategy.
TBD:
— filesystem for OS on SSD :thaenkin:

@ij I feel you.
Auch wenn mein neuer Server nen #HP ist und die wirklich viel Blödsinn haben, die #RAID6 nur mit Lizenzkey usw. Ist der Server mit #SFP+ und einem #Mellanox Port, in Kombination mit 60 Diskslots, perfect für mich. Nach dem ich das #iLO aufgemacht habe, darf ich jetzt auch die Lüfter steuern. Controller in #HBA mode gesetzt und #Btrfs mit #Raid1c4, schon ist das ganze gut nutzbar.
