Hi
I installed this system about 6 months ago using brand new hardware. It has run fine for the last 6 months. Over the weekend, the friend who I installed it for called to say his network drives were offline. Remote accessed his PC and couldn't access Freenas either via web interface or via SSH - website wouldn't load, SSH would prompt for username and password but not proceed. Got him to power cycle the server - it came back up, shares came back online. Great!
Logged in via SSH and looked at zpool status, saw a few issues so manually initiated a scrub which I left running as it was going to take hours. Zpool status was only showing 1 of the 2 hard drives with issues. Got a call this morning, same situation. Again, web interface and SSH unresponsive (beyond the username/password prompt in SSH). Power cycle got it up again and the web interface and SSH started working again. I was at work so only had time to confirm it was up and to grab the screenshot below. However, after a few hours the shares went offline again.
I'm at my friends house now and again the shares (SMB shares) are down, no response via web interface or SSH.
Any ideas on how to even diagnose this??? If I could get in, could at least look at logs etc but nothing available following reboot and it doesn't seem to be staying up long enough to get at logs with SSH working.
I'm going to try rebooting again now and see if I can find anything before SSH dies. I have tried searching but can't find solutions fitting this issue...
Thanks!
Hardware:
2 * WD 4TB CaviarRed 3.5' 64MB
16gb (2 sticks of 8gb) Kingston KVR16E11/8I 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 ECC
HP ProLiant MicroServer GEN8 G1610T
OS: FreeNAS 9.something - whatever the latest was about 2 months ago when I last patched it. Can't get in to see!
