Hi guys.
I'm very new to FreeNas. I did a fair bit of research googling the freenas community and built a freenas with the following
components
Fractal Design R5 case
450watt power supply
4 x Crucial 8gb DDR3 - 32gb total (Ram was listed in Freenas forums as suitable for the below motherboard and vendor recommended as well)
Supermicro X10SL7-f
Intel Xeon E3-1220 3.1ghz
16gb Sandisk USB thumbdrive for Freenas software
I am currently using
2 x Western Digital 2.0tb green disks
and 2 x 1tb hard drives. One WD Blue and one older 'white WD'.
The motherboard has 8 x Sas ports and 6 x Sata ports. The drives are currently being used on the sata ports.
These disks are only a temporary storage solution as I will eventually transition to a full set of WD's reds as per recommendation.
I can successfully intall Freenas and have even been able to create a pool to the point I have begun to transfer data.
Then I start to run into problems.
Firstly the warning light is activated which displays the warning 'Firmware version 15 does not match driver version 16 for /dev/mps0'
I googled this and this appears to be something to do with the LSI SAS drivers from looking at this thread being incompatible with the current version of Freenas? The thread says Freenas should 'probably work' even though there is this error message.
https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/6678
I don't have a separate SAS card but I think its integrated onto the motherboard as it has SAS ports.
After Freenas is up and running for a while it becomes unresponsive while accessing the GUI through the browser.
I then check the actual freenas monitor and it displays the following
ada2:Cam Status: Ata status Error
ada2:Ata Status:41 DRDY ERR), error:40 (UNC)
and some other stuff as per screenshots.
I reboot the machine and Freenas 'boots' as per usual until it gets to the
'spa_load_impl:' where it hangs on spa_check_logs
and then starts displaying the same message as before and it won't 'boot'
Is the Firmware version 15 does not match driver version 16 for /dev/mps0' causing this?
Do I need to flash the onboard SAS drivers through the BIOS (I'm assuming that's how you do it)
Sorry if I sound a bit newbie...I am!
Thanks guys
