Is there a way to add a physical disk (not a zvol) to a virtual machine? My server has physical disk partitions that FreeNAS doesn't support. I'd like to mount these partitions in a Linux VM, so I can copy files off it.

My first home server was build on Windows Home Server. My system included hot swap trays for syncing data to removable drives. These drives were removed and inserted into water tight containers and put into a fire proof safe. As a retired IT disaster recovery professional I considered this...

i have the latest Freenas 11 version and just used the plugin version for nextcloud installation. I also have a Plex server running in a separate jail with all my movies/tv shows in it that is brought in by sonarr/radarr running in their own respective jails. my question is, can i have...

Hi FreeNAS Community, I would like to mount a dataset directly to a hosted VM on FreeNAS 11 as I am backing up quite a lot of data from other machines over the network. If I used NFS, for instance, I would be sending the large quantity of data twice over the network (once from the client to...

Now that iocage is functional in FreeNAS 11-RC4 I have created a few jails to play with. Today I decided to test out the Crashplan iocage plugin. No problem getting the Crashplan jail plugin up and running. This brings me to the real question: How do I mount FreeNAS host datasets inside the...

Looking for a bit of a reminder on how to do this. I've recently got a FreeNAS machine up and running and am trying to set it up in a similar way to my old Ubuntu server. My linux laptop is my main machine and using fstab in the past I've automated the mounting on boot of the the Ubuntu server...

Hi everyone, I have an X9SCI-LN4F motherboard and was planning on using an intel stock cooler with it. The motherboard was just delivered to me and while trying to install the cooler I realized it wouldn't work. The holes for mounting the cooler are too small for the Intel cooler, and there are...
