Freenas rebooted and...

[ciccio]

Hello today I found the freenas that was rebooted and showed this screen attached.
What is it? How do I solve it?

Most likely your boot disk died. Reinstall the same version to a new USB stick and restore your config.

I also believe it ... does not make me install or update the system :(

USB sticks have a habit of failing. If you must use USB, use a boot mirror. However, a SATA DOM or small SSD are more reliable boot device choices, and cost about the same as a USB stick.

I had an ssd disk. to be honest, for some time the smart status had detected some errors but I ignored them... :D

OK: I replaced the disk and reconfigured everything. Thankfully the pools were intact.
Thanks for your help!

Glad to hear you are back up and running!
There are several threads in this forum about taking a daily automated configuration backup. That can be very helpful in this kind of case, so you don't have to "reconfigure everything".

to be honest the backup of the config I had done ... but maybe I had done it on the boot disk (i'm a genius...) :D

I have another question but I think I will have to open another post ...
