              @borzel I'm not very familiar with github wikis, but I think you can do pull requests against the wiki.

                  @borzel good catch, it's another O_DIRECT issue.

                    @borzel I am struggling to match the error lines in your log with a source code, can you tell me what version of vhd-tool you have installed please ? (yum info vhd-tool)

                        Thanks,
                        I have found a suspected O_DIRECT here, the solution won't come quickly.

                          Does this issue also have a role if you run glusterfs on top of zfs?
                          Or is it just directly on zfs.

                          Because i would want to runs glusterfs on top of zfs on a spearate server, and use glusterfs driver to connect to it.

                          Do i also have this issue then?

                                      Hello everybody! Newbie here, just 24h of xcp use, I was trying set Raid 10, but xcp only support Raid 1, so I'm trying now to set raidz, like on the document, I'm using 4 disks (500gb each), but I want to do Raid on this 4 disks (sda,sdb,sdc,sdd), so I can't? Need to be 6 disks? 2 raid 1 with xcp, and 4 raidz for other things?

                                        Hi,

                                        There is 2 different things:

                                        • soft RAID 1 support during install, using mdadm (the standard Linux software RAID mechanism)
                                        • ZFS support for storage repositories (where you store your VM disks)

                                        Regarding your use case, it depends. You can choose to install XCP-ng system without RAID and use only one disk, and the rest for ZFS SR. Or RAID1 for XCP-ng system, and the left disks for ZFS.

                                          Just to solve a doubt.... there is no way to install xcp-ng on software RAID 10, right?

                                            install onto (mdadm/ZFS) RAID 10: no

                                            to use (mdadm/ZFS) RAID 10 as SR: yes, of course!
