RAID 6 stable?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

after a posting in the linux-btrfs mailing list I stumbled across
<https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Project_ideas#Raid5.2F6>.

Does that mean that BTRFS RAID6 is free of known errors and ready for
deployment on data servers?

If not: is there an estimation (time-wise) when RAID6 is ready?

The background of my question: I have to rebuild my samba server which
ran out of storage. I'm using currently efs4 on top of mdadm RAID6.
I would prefer to rebuild it with BTRFS. I can postpone that rebuild
for some months.

A second question: the ZFS docu recommends very strongly to use ECC
memory on machines with ZFS RAID-Zn. Holds these arguments true for
BTRFS as well?

Kind regards,
Hans
