Revision as of 18:39, 23 October 2023

My documents on building a storage server and proxmox host.

Parts

Disk Layout

ZFS zraid2

   Zpool 
   3 - 6 disk raidz2 
   1 - 5 disk raidz2
   Special - 3 m2 flash 
   Zil - 16 GiB - optane
   l2arc -  333 GiB - optane
   Note optane is shared between Zil and l2arc

Space on this should be 15 disks of 16 tb, with redundancy or 240tb. This will leave one disk open as a hot spare.

The sata disks will be linux boot disks in a standard linux raid (maybe zfs mirror?)

SAS controller

The built in controller supports HBA mode per supermicro.

Updating Disks

Firmware

Current firmware on the disks is E004, but disks have E002 on them

Low Level Format

It's necessary to low level format these disks as we need to turn off Protection Type 2, test the sectors of the drive and make it a 4096 sector size.

 # SeaChest_Format --protectionType 0 --formatUnit 4096 --confirm this-will-erase-data --poll -d /dev/sg2

NVME Config

This was the most dificult. The onboard NVME ports under the power supply will take a standard NVME cable, but do not supply any power. The M.2 to SFF-8612 adapters don't have a power connector, so I was able to add some 3.3v inputs on the filter cap. This was kinda hacky, but it works.

Optane

The optane SSD needs to be changed to 4k sectors, but the nvme command doesn't work. Intel has a intelmas program that does https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Optane-Solid-State-Drives/4K-format-on-Optane-SSD-P1600X/m-p/1477181

Phsyical layout

Mandatory config

The disks don't deal with the old NVME support on this box (it's listed as oculink .91, not 1.0) and there are some bugs in linux around this and power handling.

A config must be added to the kernel cmdline

   vim /etc/kernel/cmdline 

add this to it:

   nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 pcie_aspm=off

then

   proxmox-boot-tool refresh
