      Probably worth trying regular local ext SRs (in mdadm if needed) and see how it behave. KISS principle is very strong in general.

        Unfortunatly this is also my conclusion.

        This is what I used to do with smaller servers.
        This is the first time with such a "huge server" + hardware RAID + ZFS with dedup.

        Thanks
        Have a nice day

          It will be a lot better with future SMAPIv3 drivers (it might include ZFS if we want to officially support it)

            Do you think the problem could be due to ZFS deduplication ?

            I just saw that it's possible to disable deduplication "without restarting" .
            I think my problem is due to excessive disk writes (adding then deleting a snapshot, then coalescing?)
            Without deduplication, less disk usage ?

            Or am I wrong ?

              In general, at least the consensus, is to NOT use deduplication with ZFS. It's probably one cause of the issue, yes. It's not worth the RAM needed.

                Yes, I should probably create a new post ?
                To discuss and "to survive" : how to make my current server usable again

                • starting by testing with deduplication turned off.

                        thanks a lot

                        I'll wait until next week to disable deduplication (never on Friday 😉 )
