Can't import RAID0 Volume after changing from NAS4Free

[Thoas]

Because my nas4free installation stopped working one day i decoded to move to Freenas, but i cant import my volume wich was created in nas4free

 

[William Grzybowski]

Well, how was it created? Is it UFS? With gstripe?

Currently FreeNAS only supports ZFS so if thats the case you will have to backup whatever you have and recreate.

 

[Thoas]

I think with UFS but I'm not sure.

 

[William Grzybowski]

You should be able to check using command line...

.e.g.

# gstripe status
# mkdir /mnt/volname
# mount /dev/stripe/volname /mnt/volname

 

[Thoas]

Didn't work. I'm getting error "no such file or directory."

 

[William Grzybowski]

Well, you must replace volname with the name of the stripe you found in gstripe status.

Can you paste the output of that command?

 

[Thoas]

It outputs "unknown special file or file sysetem"

It outputs "unknown special file or file sysetem"

The output of gstripe status and glabel status.

 

[Thoas]

Here you go

 

[William Grzybowski]

You missed glabel status, also your mount command is wrong, missing a space.

Its also possible there is a partition in that volume, paste gpart status as well.

 

[Thoas]

Here

 

[William Grzybowski]

Try:

mount /dev/stripe/Storagep1 /mnt/Storage

That should do it.

 

[Thoas]

It outputs device busy. Should I wait or what should I do?

 

[William Grzybowski]

Maybe it's mounted already?

Paste the output of mount command.

 

[Thoas]

Still busy

 

[William Grzybowski]

Just the mount command, no arguments.

 

[Thoas]

I don't think this is what you meant.

 

[William Grzybowski]

I dont think this is what you ment

Yes it was... Storage is already mounted now. Check /mnt/Storage for your data... cd /mnt/Storage; ls

 

[Thoas]

How can i turn this directory in a smb share. Do i have to make a mountpoint?

You really can't from the GUI. For backup purposes the best thing you can do is use Rsync instead.
