We understand that zfs can work with the 13 Tb disk. However, zfs
does
not come with RedHat. Can it
easily be added to a RedHat system. How? We will need complete
instructions if this is possible.
What are the drawbacks to using ZFS?
Thanks.
one option is to mount via nfs
or are you trying to attach direct storage ?
Direct storage. We need faster access.
We found an article that GPT kernel support is available by default in
a Redhat Enterprise kernel.
From http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/fdisk-unable-to-create-partition-greater-2tb.html
we could just
mklabel gpt
mkpart primary 0 12999Gb
quit
mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdc1
Will this work?
