Format of performance test results file??

[n3mmr]

I pressed the Performance test button under System->Advanced, and some time later I was offered to save a result file: It was saved as perftest-freenas.local-20150422102004.tgz, but it's only 932 bytes long, and it is not a gzip file.

I'm accessing this system from an OpenIndiana 151a7 system, using FF 31.3.0, so the problem might be there, but still.

How large a file should I expect? Is there some twist around endianness or something?? Is it supposed to be a gzipped gtar file??

I tried it all from a W8.1 machine, and the problem was exactly the same there.

What gives???

And accessing the web gui from an Ubuntu machine worked.

So, no luck under Windows or Solaris/Illumos, but a linux machine handles this OK??? Can someone suggest a reasonable explanation for that??

(Perf was Writes about 240MB/s, Reads about 160MB/s.. That should work for a DLNA server if the transcodes are all done on a machine using the Freenas as a data server, and not letting the freenas do any of the DLNA bits, right???)

The .tgz extension indicates it's a compressed tar file, in this case it i compressed by gzip. tar xzvf filename.tgz from the command line will extract the contents. Graphical archiver utilities which understand the tar format and gzip will also extract the contents.

As I said above; gtar xzvf file.tgz works in Ubuntu, not in W8 or Solaris...

GNU tar (gtar) is typically only installed on Linux distros.
