Greetings,
I have two FN boxes setup that are just large Iscsi datastores for ESXi hosts. I'm wanting to have one as a primary and one as a backup.
In an ideal world, I want them to stay regularly in sync (hourly or so) so if the primary goes, we can just boot up VM's from the second.
I've configured ZFS replication for snapshots but how does one clone the 'initial' zfs volume that the snapshots are changes of? It's all left me slightly confused about the best way to replicate an Iscsi zfs volume to another box.
Thoughts?
