* Initial attempt to document events and payloads.Turbo Fredriksson2014-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | In no way complete - most have been trial and error and some deducing what they could mean. It needs more information from someone that knows the code better. But this is a start and it lays the basic structure for adding this additional detail.

* Remove incorrect use of EXTRA_DIST for man pagesBrian Behlendorf2014-01-171-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Setting the 'dist_' prefix is the correct way to instruct Automake to include these files in the distribution. The EXTRA_DIST variable is reserved for files which are not covered by the automatic rules. http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Basics Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
* Document ZFS module parameters.Turbo Fredriksson2013-11-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is a first draft of a zfs-module-parameters(5) man page. I have just extracted the parameter name and its description with modinfo, then checked the source what type it is and its default value. This will need more work, preferably someone that actually know these values and what to use them for. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #1856
* Add zpool-features(5) man pageBrian Behlendorf2013-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The zpool-features(5) man page was accidentally omitted from the build target when feature flags was merged. As a result it doesn't get installed as part of 'make install' so none of the packages include this man page. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #1262
* Add vdev_id for JBOD-friendly udev aliasesNed A. Bass2012-06-011-0/+5
vdev_id parses the file /etc/zfs/vdev_id.conf to map a physical path in a storage topology to a channel name. The channel name is combined with a disk enclosure slot number to create an alias that reflects the physical location of the drive. This is particularly helpful when it comes to tasks like replacing failed drives. Slot numbers may also be re-mapped in case the default numbering is unsatisfactory. The drive aliases will be created as symbolic links in /dev/disk/by-vdev. The only currently supported topologies are sas_direct and sas_switch: o sas_direct - a channel is uniquely identified by a PCI slot and a HBA port o sas_switch - a channel is uniquely identified by a SAS switch port A multipath mode is supported in which dm-mpath devices are handled by examining the first running component disk, as reported by 'multipath -l'. In multipath mode the configuration file should contain a channel definition with the same name for each path to a given enclosure. vdev_id can replace the existing zpool_id script on systems where the storage topology conforms to sas_direct or sas_switch. The script could be extended to support other topologies as well. The advantage of vdev_id is that it is driven by a single static input file that can be shared across multiple nodes having a common storage toplogy. zpool_id, on the other hand, requires a unique /etc/zfs/zdev.conf per node and a separate slot-mapping file. However, zpool_id provides the flexibility of using any device names that show up in /dev/disk/by-path, so it may still be needed on some systems. vdev_id's functionality subsumes that of the sas_switch_id script, and it is unlikely that anyone is using it, so sas_switch_id is removed. Finally, /dev/disk/by-vdev is added to the list of directories that 'zpool import' will scan. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #713
