Hello,
Under FreeBSD 9, what filesystem should I use for PostgreSQL? (Dell
PowerEdge 2900, 24G mem, 10x2T SATA2 disk, Intel RAID controller.)
- ZFS is journaled, and it is more independent of the hardware.
So if the computer goes wrong, I can move the zfs array to a
different server.
- UFS is not journaled. Also I have to rely on the RAID card to
build the RAID array. If there is a hw problem with it, then I
won't be able to recover the data easily.
I wonder if UFS has better performance or not. Or can you suggest
another fs? Just of the PGDATA directory.
Thanks,
Laszlo
