In BSD-derived computer operating systems (including NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and DragonFly BSD) and in related operating systems such as SunOS, a disklabel is a record stored on a data storage device such as a hard disk that contains information about the location of the partitions on the disk.
GEOM is the main storage framework for the FreeBSD operating system. It is available in FreeBSD 5.0 and later releases, and provides a standardized way to access storage layers. GEOM is modular and allows for geom modules to connect to the framework. For example, the geom_mirror module provides RAID1 or mirroring functionality to the system.
geom_raid5 is a storage module created for the FreeBSD operating system. It facilitates RAID5 functionality without the need of a hardware RAID controller.. geom_raid5 allows storage of large amounts of data to be protected against disk failure, while providing good throughput performance.
FreeBSD is a free-software Unix-like operating system descended from the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD). The first version was released in 1993 developed from 386BSD [3] —the first fully functional and free Unix clone—and has since continuously been the most commonly used BSD-derived operating system.
FreeBSD still uses the image, a red cartoon daemon named Beastie, wielding a pitchfork, as its mascot today. In 2005, after a competition, a stylized version of Beastie's head designed and drawn by Anton Gural was chosen as the FreeBSD logo. [44] The FreeBSD slogan is "The Power to Serve."
IronPort AsyncOS is based on a FreeBSD kernel [16] Isilon Systems' OneFS, the operating system used on Isilon IQ-series clustered storage systems [17] Juniper Networks Junos [18] Junos prior to 5.0 was based on FreeBSD 2.2.6; Junos between 5.0 and 7.2 (inclusive) is based on FreeBSD 4.2; Junos 7.3 and higher is based on FreeBSD 4.10
The geli utility is different from gbde in that it offers different features and uses a different scheme for doing cryptographic work. It supports the crypto framework within FreeBSD, allowing hardware cryptographic acceleration if available, as well as supporting more cryptographic algorithms (currently AES, Triple DES, Blowfish and Camellia) and data authentication/integrity verification via ...
Offers a complete web UI for easily controlling, deploying and managing FreeBSD jails, containers and Bhyve/Xen hypervisor virtual environments. DragonFly BSD: Originally forked from FreeBSD 4.8, now developed in a different direction TrueNAS: Previously known as FreeNAS. GhostBSD: GhostBSD is a FreeBSD OS distro oriented for desktops and laptops.
