Hello,

Currently I try to realize a Filer Setup, based up on FreeBSD 9 with 
Carp, HAST and ZFS. Failover etc works fine so far, but when I start 
writing data on the ZFS device the following error pops up continuously:

Dec 17 14:59:06 filer1 hastd[2211]: [disk7] (primary) Remote request 
failed (Operation not supported by device): FLUSH.
Dec 17 14:59:06 filer1 hastd[2205]: [disk5] (primary) Remote request

failed (Operation not supported by device): FLUSH.


I already found threads where setting vfs.zfs.vdev.bio_flush_disable=1 
seemed to fix this, for me it had no effect. Also i tried setting 
metaflush off in hast.conf, which doesnt change anything, too


Hardware Platform is a Dell Poweredge R515, with Perc H700 Controller 
(configured to 10 Raid-0 Devices to get the single Disks).

Any Ideas how to fix this?

Cheers,

Juergen
