Hi,
Just a little curious, if the filer uses 4K block sizes, why does my sysconfig -r output imply 2K?
eg:
marvin> sysconfig -r Volume corp
RAID group 0RAID Disk HA.ID HA SHELF BAY CHAN Used (MB/blks) Phys (MB/blks)
parity 5.1 5 0 1 FC:A 8600/17612800 8683/17783112 data 5.2 5 0 2 FC:A 8600/17612800 8683/17783112
If I divide the Used blocks (17612800) by the MB (8600) I get 2048.
Cheers,
Actually you should divide (8600*1024*1024) by 17612800 to get 512. The blocks in this case are the 512 byte sectors on disk. WAFL chunks 8 of these into it's smallest allocation unit.
