I really enjoy building FreeNAS systems, and have put together quite a few machines, for for myself, for fun, and for friends/fam. After initial trial-and-error, all builds are now similar: SuperMicro board, one or two Dell or IBM controllers as LSI 9211-8i in IT mode, and a couple of hard...

Hi thar. Bear in mind that I am relatively new to NAS in general :confused: I installed FreeNAS on a 3 SSD-disc setup. Installation went smoothly, and was easy and quick to set up for web-interface. immediately when engaging the interface, I had the option (from the Wizard) to set up my disks...

Hello, I plan to migarte my fileservers from plain freebsd-installations to FreeNAS. Can I import the zpools (raidz1)? (Because FreeNAS uses FreebSD 10.3-RC3) Best regards

Hey guys, I've got a slight issue and I think i've got a solution but not too sure if it would work so I figured I would come here to get some expert advice. So I took a hard drive out of my FreeNAS (build 9.10-stable) and deleted the volume (with the data still on it) but then I realized that...

Let me preface this by saying, I know freenas recommends new hardware and there are risks with my setup but I'm not really holding any sensitive data in my NAS and only using it as a media server. So I've had this laptop for awhile where the screen and the HDMI port of the laptop was not...

I'm busy testing a new tool to backup a full HD and I can select for it to compress its output so I was wondering if there is a point in doing so as it writes to a share and the underlying ZFS dataset has compression enabled. I'm thinking that if I disable compression in my backup tool, it...

All my snapshots disappeared on my FreeNAS server and now they only go back as far as Sunday the 15/01/2017. This is fine, I don't need to restore anything from snapshot but I am trying to figure out why they were deleted. I've output the contents from "cat messages | grep destroy" below. I...

I'm trying to figure out why a dataset is showing a surprisingly low amount of available space left to it, despite the underlying pool having lots. I had a FreeNAS RAIDZ1 with five drives in it that I wanted to erase and recreate using eight drives. I snapshotted the existing dataset from it...

I'm about to make a new file server out of an old Dell tower, but it only has SATAII ports, not the faster 6 Gb/s SATAIII. To fix this problem I've ordered some ASM1061 HBAs, but they haven't arrived yet. I'd like to set up the file server now if possible, using the onboard SATAII ports, and...

I apologize if this question has been answered before. I searched "mixed disk" in the search and didn't see any results. I currently have a mixture of disks I would like to use in my ZFS setup. I would like some redundancy (be able to lose at least 1 drive) so I believe a raidz setup is ideal...

I've got a ~550GB snapshot that I'm attempting to replicate offsite for the first time, and finding that when the job gets interrupted, all progress gets erased and requires restarting. In the last two weeks, I haven't managed to get the whole thing sent, and the multiple daily restarts are...

I want to allow management of a ZFS dataset inside of a jail. I created the jail with various sysctls, enabled the dataset jailed property, and set an allow list on the dataset. The good news is that all of this is working -- when the dataset is bound to the jail I can snap, destroy etc. The...

Hi everyone, Ive only just delved into the world of Freenas, and i love what i see so far. Ive only set it up as a single drive in a spare box to test, before i lash out and spend money on multiple drives. I had initially, a 2 TB drive in as a data drive holding my pool. I run Freenas off a USB...

Hi everyone, I am testing my new Freenas with old drives just so i kan mess it up and i won't loose any data. It is fun and much faster then my ReadyNAS. My hardware: AMD A8-7600 ASRock FM2A88X Pro3+ 32Gb RAM DDR3 1600 Crusial Blistix Sport CL9 (2kits of 2x8GB) 16Gb USB3 for FreeNAS HDD's will...

Hello world! I am building my first FreeNAS and I wanted to get some opinion's on the build as well as have a few questions answered. Below is the build: Intel Core i3-4170 3.7GHz Dual-Core Processor ASRock E3C224D2I Mini ITX LGA1150 Motherboard Kingston 16GB (2 x 8GB) Registered DDR3-1333...

Good afternoon all, Currently I have an old Mac Pro that has OS X + OpenZFS installed, I've got four 3TB WD Reds configured in a RAIDz - the OS is on a USB stick. On top of this, I have a FreeBSD VM running with Jails for Nextcloud, Quassel Core, and GitLab. It's a rather expensive way of...

let me start by saying I realize this is the FreeNAS forums, and that I am building a ZFS linux build, however there are a lot of knowledgeable people here that I would like to get input from, so I posted this in Off-topic. The reason I am planning to use ZFS under linux is because I use my...

Hey there, for spindown- and performance-reasons, I´d like to move my jails to the system dataset. I got a NAS-System consisting of a (high write endurance) SSD with 250Gb, that I planned to use as system disk and for my jails. FreeNAS is installed to this SSD and uses 1,14GB of this SSD (what...

In configuring my hypothetical server, I have a few questions about the ARC/L2ARC. Our use-case is a little odd. We have a directory full of many small files, new batches of which are generated at the beginning of every month. When doing data analysis, we want to be able to access this month's...

Hello all, Let me preface this with I have not found a piece of software that does what I am trying to do. I am halfway through writing version 1 of a backup utility for ZFS systems. The idea was inspired by a file-level backup solution I currently use, duplicity, for my NAS share sitting on...

Now that my FreeNAS mini is up and running, I'd like to back it up to an external drive connected via usb every week or so, automatically. I plugged in the drive. In the UI, Storage->Volumes->Volume Manager, I named and added a new volume containing only this disk. I can see the new root...

Hi, I'm using a small setup for freenas. Atom 2750, 8GB Ram, 5*2GB HDD Raid5. Configured are one share for SMB and NFS. Read and write performance is ok for me, but deleting files from a Windows PC is extrem slow. Writing troughput is 105MBit, reading about 90MBit, deleting ONLY 5 KBit. Could...

Hello, everybody! I have interesting problem. I have copied some folder from one pool to another (from pool, for example, Data, to Data2), and after copying deleted this folder from first pool. But free space is not changed. I have rebooted server, but problem didn't solved. What can i do to...

Hi all, I am migrating from OpenIndiana (Yay!), so far I am impressed by how easily things are moving along. Setup was overall very easy (except the part where I didn't realize I can't just boot from the Installation USB and I need another one to install onto. The installation process was not...

El dia de hoy tuve un problema con mi servidor con freeNas y en uno de los volumenes me aparecio El estado del volumen uneme (ZFS) es UNKNOWN ¿Alguien tiene algun consejo de como recuperar la informacion del volumen ? o ¿como puedo volver a recuperar ese volumen?

Howdy all, Ive been looking around the forums here trying to see if there is a way to do a snapshot replication tasks between to pools on the same node (this is for a home setup). Now yes, I know you can setup the GUI replication task and just point it to loopback and apply the SSH key...

Situation: 2 FreeNAS units Primary and Backup (FreeNAS-9.10-STABLE-201606270534 (dd17351)) Periodic Snapshots on Primary unit replicating to Backup unit - No Issues, works great. Primary unit CIFS share - I can see all files and go back to any available snapshot and pull a previous version of a...

Hope someone can help me here: I have a FreeNAS 8.3.1 box that I had to take down for fan replacement. Box has two pools, P1 RAIDZ2 - ada0,1,2,3 and P2 RAIDZ1 - ada4,5 The box was shut down properly, but I didn't export the volumes because I thought everything was labeled and could be put...
