The Latest in Z/OS UNIX and Zfs The Latest in z/OS UNIX and zFS Marna WALLE, [email protected] , Member of the IBM Academy of Technology z/OS System Installation IBM Z Systems, Poughkeepsie NY USA Thanks for material provided by Vivian Morabito, zFS Function Test, and Bill Schoen, z/OS UNIX Development. Agenda zFS: • Encryption and Compression • Shrink • SMF Recording • Implicit Format on mount • Online Salvage (verify / repair) • Supplemental: Dynamic Change Aggregate Attributes (chaggr), Miscellaneous updates, and zFS V2R3 Performance Measurements z/OS UNIX: • HFS to zFS utility • Automatic unmount of version file system in shared file system • Maintaining a single configuration file across the sysplex • Assigning default umask values to all z/OS UNIX users © Copyright IBM Corporation 2018. Materials may not be reproduced in whole or in 1 part without the prior written permission of IBM. 1 zFS Encryption AND compression V2R3 Encryption & Compression Support for zFS • New and Existing filesystems can be encrypted and / or compressed • User decides which operation, and in what order. HOWEVER, if you want to do both, compression before encryption is highly recommended. • After a filesystem is fully encrypted or compressed, additional new entries will automatically be encrypted or compressed © Copyright IBM Corporation 2018. Materials may not be reproduced in whole or in 2 part without the prior written permission of IBM. 2 zFS Encryption AND compression V2R3 Encryption & Compression Support for zFS… • Encrypting or compressing an existing filesystem is a long-running administrative command • Application access is fully allowed to the filesystem during the operation. • Progress may be monitored with FSINFO © Copyright IBM Corporation 2018. Materials may not be reproduced in whole or in 3 part without the prior written permission of IBM. 3 zFS Encryption AND compression zFS V2R3: New long running admin commands… • New thread pool created for long running commands • Foreground threads – handle overall long running operation(s) • Background threads – used by foreground thread to allow for parallelism • new configuration option long_cmd_threads • long_cmd_threads=foreground, background • (each value can be 1-64, default is 8,24) • Long running commands require an available foreground thread © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017. Technical University/Symposia materials may not 4 IBM Systems Technical Events | ibm.com /training/events be reproduced in whole or in part without the prior written permission of IBM. 4 zFS Encryption AND compression zFS V2R3: New long running admin commands… • Background tasks on the zFS owning system process every object in the filesystem. • Try not to use long running commands (encrypt, compress, shrink) during periods of high activity. • Best to use them during “off shift” time periods © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017. Technical University/Symposia materials may not 5 IBM Systems Technical Events | ibm.com /training/events be reproduced in whole or in part without the prior written permission of IBM. 5 zFS Encryption / Compression • zFS Encryption & Compression are both V2R3 ONLY • If there are V2R1 or V2R2 members in the sysplex: • Encryption or Compression may not be initiated. • If you mount an encrypted or compressed filesystem on a V2R3 member in a sysplex with V2R1 or V2R2 members, zFS will function ship to the downlevel members (significant performance impact) • Wait until you are fully on V2R3 on all systems (with no intent to go back) before using zFS encryption and compression services! © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017. Technical University/Symposia materials may not 6 IBM Systems Technical Events | ibm.com /training/events be reproduced in whole or in part without the prior written permission of IBM. 6 zFS Encryption / Compression commands: • Decryption & Decompression are supported • Allows you to back out, if pre-V2R3 members need to be brought back into the sysplex © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017. Technical University/Symposia materials may not 7 IBM Systems Technical Events | ibm.com /training/events be reproduced in whole or in part without the prior written permission of IBM. 7 zFS Encryption / Compression… • Consider pairing encryption with compression. • If the compression is done first the amount of data to be encrypted is smaller which may improve performance. • zFS does not perform a “dual” compression and encryption: user directs the actions separately. • You cannot encrypt or decrypt an aggregate that is partially compressed or partially decompressed. • You cannot compress / decompress an aggregate that is partially encrypted or partially decrypted. © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017. Technical University/Symposia materials may not 8 IBM Systems Technical Events | ibm.com /training/events be reproduced in whole or in part without the prior written permission of IBM. 8 zFS Encryption • Utilizes DFSMS Encryption for VSAM datasets • uses ICSF* to perform encryption and decryption and to manage cryptographic keys. Userid associated with zFS need access to those keys. • ICSF configuration is beyond the scope of this zFS-specific presentation. • Ensure that ICSF is running early in the IPL (COMMNDxx, not automation, S CSF,SUB=MSTR) before you exploit DFSMS data set encryption. • (zFS relaxes the DFSMS rule that the data set be SMS-managed and extended format.) • zFS encrypts: • file contents, • security information, • ACLs (Access Control Lists) • symbolic link contents • zFS does NOT encrypt the zFS cache * ICSF: z/OS Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) © Copyright IBM Corporation 2017.

  • Copy on Write Based File Systems Performance Analysis and Implementation
    Copy On Write Based File Systems Performance Analysis And Implementation Sakis Kasampalis Kongens Lyngby 2010 IMM-MSC-2010-63 Technical University of Denmark Department Of Informatics Building 321, DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark Phone +45 45253351, Fax +45 45882673 [email protected] www.imm.dtu.dk Abstract In this work I am focusing on Copy On Write based file systems. Copy On Write is used on modern file systems for providing (1) metadata and data consistency using transactional semantics, (2) cheap and instant backups using snapshots and clones. This thesis is divided into two main parts. The first part focuses on the design and performance of Copy On Write based file systems. Recent efforts aiming at creating a Copy On Write based file system are ZFS, Btrfs, ext3cow, Hammer, and LLFS. My work focuses only on ZFS and Btrfs, since they support the most advanced features. The main goals of ZFS and Btrfs are to offer a scalable, fault tolerant, and easy to administrate file system. I evaluate the performance and scalability of ZFS and Btrfs. The evaluation includes studying their design and testing their performance and scalability against a set of recommended file system benchmarks. Most computers are already based on multi-core and multiple processor architec- tures. Because of that, the need for using concurrent programming models has increased. Transactions can be very helpful for supporting concurrent program- ming models, which ensure that system updates are consistent. Unfortunately, the majority of operating systems and file systems either do not support trans- actions at all, or they simply do not expose them to the users.

The MacZFS project continued to develop the code. 2010 – OpenSolaris was discontinued, the last release was forked. Further development of ZFS on Solaris was no longer open source. 2010 – illumos was founded as the truly open source successor to OpenSolaris. Development of ZFS continued in the open. Ports of ZFS to other platforms continued porting upstream changes from illumos. 2012 – Feature flags were introduced to replace legacy on-disk version numbers, enabling easier distributed evolution of the ZFS on-disk format to support new features. 2013 – Alongside the stable version of MacZFS, ZFS-OSX used ZFS on Linux as a basis for the next generation of MacZFS. 2013 – The first stable release of ZFS on Linux. 2013 – Official announcement of the OpenZFS project.

  • Filesystem Considerations for Embedded Devices ELC2015 03/25/15
    Filesystem considerations for embedded devices ELC2015 03/25/15 Tristan Lelong Senior embedded software engineer Filesystem considerations ABSTRACT The goal of this presentation is to answer a question asked by several customers: which filesystem should you use within your embedded design’s eMMC/SDCard? These storage devices use a standard block interface, compatible with traditional filesystems, but constraints are not those of desktop PC environments. EXT2/3/4, BTRFS, F2FS are the first of many solutions which come to mind, but how do they all compare? Typical queries include performance, longevity, tools availability, support, and power loss robustness. This presentation will not dive into implementation details but will instead summarize provided answers with the help of various figures and meaningful test results. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2. Block devices 3. Available filesystems 4. Performances 5. Tools 6. Reliability 7. Conclusion Filesystem considerations ABOUT THE AUTHOR • Tristan Lelong • Embedded software engineer @ Adeneo Embedded • French, living in the Pacific northwest • Embedded software, free software, and Linux kernel enthusiast. 4 Introduction Filesystem considerations Introduction INTRODUCTION More and more embedded designs rely on smart memory chips rather than bare NAND or NOR. This presentation will start by describing: • Some context to help understand the differences between NAND and MMC • Some typical requirements found in embedded devices designs • Potential filesystems to use on MMC devices 6 Filesystem considerations Introduction INTRODUCTION Focus will then move to block filesystems. How they are supported, what feature do they advertise. To help understand how they compare, we will present some benchmarks and comparisons regarding: • Tools • Reliability • Performances 7 Block devices Filesystem considerations Block devices MMC, EMMC, SD CARD Vocabulary: • MMC: MultiMediaCard is a memory card unveiled in 1997 by SanDisk and Siemens based on NAND flash memory.
