Answering todays daily question:
"What type of RAID is RAID-Z?
A. Software RAID
B. Hardware RAID
C. Not a RAID
D. Virtual RAID"Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but RAID-Z (aka RAID-5 (RAID-Z2 in 6 and Z3 is "7" I know)), can be either hardware or software and therefore the question is written wrong??
RAIDZ is the marketing name of the RAID 5 implementation in ZFS. There is no hardware implementation of the ZFS subsystem. In theory, it wouldn't be illegal to do that, so someone could use the ZFS system to build a hardware device, but that would be insanely hard to manage and use a crazy amount of resources, and no one would buy it
RAIDZ is A) Software RAID.
-
Even if someone built a hardware device using ZFS, though, ZFS itself wouldn't be the name of the device but rather of the software on the device. So in a way, the reference to RAIDZ would remain one to software RAID even in the context of a theoretical hardware device.
So as long as the accepted answer was Software RAID, then the question was correct.

@scottalanmiller Such a great tune. You can use it as a listening example for secondary dominants (V/V)!

It is not RAID-5 is almost like RAID-3.... and it is software RAID.... but the question needs more information. What is also the explanation?
RAIDZ is RAID 5. RAID 3 has never had a production implementation.
I mean I understood it that way but this article placed me into doubt

Discovering and fixing a former employee DNS screw up. The mail filtering service we use has two different MX targets and the priority was set the same for both entries. Turns out a lot of problems occur when you do this.

It shouldn’t unless the mail filter system isn’t designed to handle it

I am not sure which provider Mimecast or Rexflexion is the one having the issue with it. I am hitting the books on DNS MX record priority in the mean time.
-
@popester Turns out Mimecast instructs you to put matching priority on both records. The plot thickens...... Going straight to WTF mode.

What are the problems that are occurring? I'm not familiar with Mimecast, so I won't be able to offer much.

@eddiejennings The symptom is that basically anyone that uses the Reflexion email filtering service cannot set us emails. We have whitelisted all IP. for Reflexion. We have worked with Mimecast to make sure they are not blocking anything. Our only thoughts are its Reflexion and the way they are handling multiple MX records that have the same priority. Thanks for your input. That is why I like this group.

I feel like on SW I can see a day by day slide into all out lying and backbiting. It's crazy. A month ago, it wasn't like this. Now, I feel like every other thread I see is someone outright lying and attacking only to hurt people in the thread. The acceptance of completely falsification has taken a turn culturally.
