connect to iSCSI device extent after FreeNAS boot drive failed

[Brian Zaayer]

I had an issue with my usb boot drive. I reinstalled FreeNAS and imported my volume. However my iSCSI target did not import. I created a zvol and device extent. I set the sector size to 512b (i do not know what the previous size was). I connect windows to the iSCSI drive and it showed as it needed initialized. I did not initialize the drive, but I did let a recovery program scan the drive. It found nothing. Is there any way to fix the issue. I am running FreeNAS 9.10.
I appreciate any insight that you can provide,
Brian

Which version did you upgrade from and which version did you upgrade to?

 

[Brian Zaayer]

I was on FreeNAS 9.10 when the boot drive crashed. I then installed Corral (like an idiot). When I didn't see the ISCSI share, I installed 9.10 on a new flash drive and imported the volume.

Just to clarify, now that you're back on 9.10, you still can't see the iSCSI share? Did you also restore your 9.10 config?

 

[Brian Zaayer]

I didn't have a backup of my 9.10 config. Stupid, I know!

You will need to recreate your config then. However, your zvols should still be there if you were using device extents.

Maybe there's still a backup in the system dataset?
