Ob es wohl in der Last der weltweiten Stromnetze ablesbar ist, wenn fast alle #OpenZFS Systeme am zweiten Sonntag im Monat einen Scrup starten?

Heya #zfs peeps--Klara just published an article of mine which goes over the basics of observability and monitoring of #openzfs systems. Including breadcrumbs leading you to a free to use web service and how to use it with #sanoid, if you're not feeling up to the challenge of running your own Nagios instance!

Hey #EO2026, you know how this works: find me, say hi, and this classy #OpenZFS sticker will be yours!
Can't find me? I'll definitely be in Room A (2B07) at 1:30pm. I'll be easy to spot - I'll be at the front with the microphone, talking about money.
(no charge for the sticker though 💚)
Next up for the #NextCloud deployment in the #HardenedBSD infrastructure: Backing up the VM storage to the NAS on a regular basis.
The VM's #OpenZFS zvol gets auto-snapshotted every 15 minutes, hour, day, week, month, and year.
I'm hoping to find something (suggestions welcome!) for something that can handle the zfs send part to the NAS but NOT handle the snapshotting itself.
Put another way: I want a tool I can use ONLY to run zfs send on an existing snapshot, sending it to a remote ssh host.
Or am I forced to use the same tool for both snapshotting and transfer?
so the other day i ran into an #openzfs bug (more details). i ended up having to evacuate like 30TB of data from the Big Pool on my nas, recreate the pool, restore the backups, but now all is well again! or at least it was on 4 january, when i drafted this.
in this case the strategy was to identify the corrupted files preventing send, delete them, take a snapshot -r of the whole pool, and send only that snapshot to some backup disks, while never destroying any other datasets or snapshots (because that could trigger the panic).
i have since reproduced the bug and distilled it into an actual regression test, landing my first openzfs patch :D https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/18109

🚀🎉 In a groundbreaking revelation, #MayaNAS developers have heroically announced that they've figured out how to spell "cloud" using #AWS, #Azure, and #GCP in the same sentence! 🎉🚀 The #OpenZFS Summit proves once again that storage jargon can make any engineer feel like they're assembling IKEA furniture with no instructions. 🛠️📦

Я ПРОСТО ОБОЖАЮ ZFS!!!
сегодня я случайно удалил очень полезный файлик от strace, который терять не хочется. благо у меня был сделан zfs снапшот прошлым вечером, я смонтировал его как клона в /restore, скопировал себе файлик и снёс клона. считаные секунды на восстановление после опечатки.
kefir@desktop ~$ zfs clone -o mountpoint=/restore root/home/kefir@2026-01-14_00.00.03--5d root/restore
kefir@desktop ~$ cp /restore/trace ~/
kefir@desktop ~$ zfs destroy root/restore
kefir@desktop ~$ lsa trace
-rw-r--r-- 1 kefir users 5.4M Jan 14 22:59 /home/kefir/trace@amiablechief a couple of options
1. Wait for 15.1 https://www.freebsd.org/releng/#schedule
2. Use the kernel module from ports https://www.freshports.org/filesystems/openzfs-kmod/
3. Upgrade to a 15-stable snapshot https://download.freebsd.org/snapshots/amd64/15.0-STABLE/
4. Use 15 base_weekly as pkgbase https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/base_weekly/
I just wrote something
RE: https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano/115858721747358539
There have been significant updates - and a further attempted breach.
I cannot disclose any details, as the investigation is still ongoing. I don't know all the details.
I can say, however, that ZFS was extremely helpful in ensuring the investigation could be opened.
So. Completely different from everything else I've posted: #OpenZFS any #latenightlinux #twopointfiveadmins fans? The world needs more @JimSalter ... Also @JimRutt no podcasts from him since November???

ZFS AnyRAID VDEVs cho phép trộn các ổ đĩa có kích thước và loại khác nhau trong cùng một VDEV, khắc phục hạn chế lớn nhất khi mở rộng lưu trữ. Dữ liệu được chia thành các "tile" cố định và phân bổ thông minh để tận dụng tối đa không gian, hỗ trợ mở rộng/trừ ổ trực tuyến và cân bằng lại dữ liệu. Cốt lõi là "bản đồ tile" lưu trữ ánh xạ logic-vật lý, đảm bảo tính toàn vẹn và truy cập dữ liệu. Tăng linh hoạt, giảm chi phí nâng cấp cho hệ thống self-hosted. #ZFS #AnyRAID #Storage #NAS #OpenZFS #LuuTr
@NebulaTide I use OpenZFS-native encrypted ZFS for one of the file systems in a pool on a mobile hard disk drive on USB.
No GELI.
