HELiOS is a spin of Scientific Linux created and maintained by the GE Healthcare Compute Systems team (CST). HELiOS strives to be as upstream as possible thus including ZOL into SL helps us better maintain upstream purity in HELiOS. Including ZOL in SL also allows the rest of the SL community to benefit from our work with ZOL. release_description: > Core ZFS development started in 2001 with ZFS being Officially released by Sun in 2004. Testing and evaluation of ZOL by CST has shown better performance, scalability, and stability, then BTRFS. As a result of the maturity of core ZFS, ZOL inherits ZFS features which are many years ahead of BTRFS. Testing by CST with ZOL on a proper hardware setup with proper SSD ZIL/L2ARC devices has shown ZOL to yield better performance then both BTRFS and native Solaris ZFS. Also performance tests of ZOL by CST has yielded better performance results then running the equivalent tests on Sun/Oracle or Nexenta ZFS storage appliances. Additional testing by CST of ZOL has shown that when combined with GlusterFS the results are a very powerful, redundant and almost infinitely scalable storage solution. ZOL is the work of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) under Contract No. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) between the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC (LLNS) for the operation of LLNL. security_update: No fixed_bugs: No fixed_cves: No rpms: - SL6_SRPMS: - zfs-modules-0.6.0-rc14.el6.src.rpm - SL6_x86_64: - zfs-modules-dkms-0.6.0-rc14.el6.noarch.rpm
