Dears,
I'm experiencing the following trouble on both FreeNAS and TrueNAS.
My environment is composed by 6 servers and one SAN directly connetcting to the servers through the Gigabit ethernet switch.
The 6 servers and the san working together creating a Failover Cluster based on Hyper-V. In this Failover Cluster, a TrueNAS VM has been created with two hard drive attached: the first one contains the TrueNAS OS, the second one contains the TrueNAS Pool. On the second hard drive, through Hyper-V, I've created a 2TB of Virtual Hard Disk (vhdx) with fixed size (1.6TB).
Through TrueNAS, on the second hard drive, I've created a ZFS Pool with 80% of max size (80% of 1.6TB). This pool os shared through Windows SMB protocol.
As soon as this pool is mapped (\\truenas_ipaddress\pool_name), I try to copy on it 500GB of data. During the copy, the second hard drive increase its own dimension, until TrueNAS crash and failed.
My question is: why the second hard rive increase its own size? I've set it as fixed size and I don't understand why it "explodes". This behaviour is the same one with TrueNAS and FreeNAS.
Thanks in advance!
