I'm setting up an EON/ZFS storage server. I've got a Supermicro X7SPA-H motherboard that I'm planning to use but discovered this post (http://sorenragsdale.livejournal.com/19875.html?view=80803) which indicates there is/was an issue with it dropping off the network. I've talked with Andre who builds EON and he said that the issue should be fixed in the lasted version (EON 0.60 binary kit release based on snv_130).

I'm going to make a test build on the board regardless, but figured I'd check in and see if anyone could confirm the fix works as expected.

I have a number of these boards running at home and at friends -
works very good with various snv_134 and oi_147.

Thanks Cyril,

I've got the box up and running right now with a script on another machine testing if it can reach it every 10 seconds. Hopefully, the EON Storage built around svn_130 will work as well. I'll post back on what I find.

Cheers,

I'm still working on the machine, but I put it up for 72 hours running EON 0.60 from snv_130 and then had another box pull a file from it every 10 seconds. It stayed on the network the entire time. Seems that version is working well with the board too.

Thanks,
