I'm pleased to announce that FreeNAS-9.1.0 Release Candidate 1 is available for download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/freenas/files/FreeNAS-9.1.0/
Release Notes for FreeNAS 9.1.0-RC1
This is the first release candidate for FreeNAS 9.1.0. We have passed a great alpha and
rolling beta cycle with many bug fixes and regressions fixed. At this point, only bug fixes and
regressions will be addressed.
*** IMPORTANT ***
The image size increased in FreeNAS 9.1.0-ALPHA. The new size requires a 4 GB storage device.
The GUI upgrade can be used to upgrade a system from BETA3 or BETA4, but upgrades
from earlier releases can only be done from the CD. The other option is to save
the config, reinstall the new version, then restore the config.
Major changes:
1) Version 9.1-STABLE of FreeBSD with performance improvements, bug
fixes, and updated software packages.
2) Many improvements to the ZFS filesystem, including feature flags,
TRIM support, enhanced drive removal notification, LZ4 compression,
improved ARC memory reclamation and reliability improvements.
3) Improved Plugin Jail subsystem which supports multiple jails and
an enhanced UI including enhancements from PC-BSD Warden.
4) Improved Volume manager including auto optimization of volumes
for performance.
5) Improvements to the encryption subsystem.
6) Documentation enhancements.
7) Increased base image size to 3.7GB.
8) GUI UPGRADES FROM FREENAS 8.X ARE NOT SUPPORTED (due to image size #7)
9) **IMPORTANT** Backward compatibility of FreeNAS 9.1 ZFS pools
with older versions of ZFS is not to be expected. Upgrade pools
with extreme caution, as all ZFS pool upgrades are one-way and only
FreeNAS 9.1, FreeBSD 9-STABLE, and FreeBSD 8.4 currently support
this ZFS pool format.
10) To convert 8.* pluginjail to a 9.* pluginjail, please run the
jail migration script like so (prior to configuring jails):
/root/migrate_pluginjail.sh -D
Any plugins installed will need to be updated manually, this can be done
on the services->plugins page.
