SOLVED FreeNAS running out of ram? But why?

[sesipod]

Hello I need help figuring out why my FreeNAS server is running out of ram. I only stated noticing this after the update to FreeNAS-11.2-BETA3.

I am running 9x 3TB WD Reds in Z2. The server is almost always idle during the time of the reports.
FreeNAS is only being used for SMB / NFS services. I am not running any VMS or Plugins on this server.


Here are my specs this is fully dedicated hardware to FreeNAS:

Code:

CPU: 1x Intel Xeon E3-1230V3 Haswell 3.3GHz LGA 1150 80W BX80646E31230V3.

ZFS will use almost ALL free RAM to cache your data. This is expected and desired. If your RAM sat unused all the time and you had an essentially static workload, all that RAM would be a waste.

Alright so if that is the case then NetData is just freaking out :P

Ya it seams to be.. I just updated my family server to RC1 and let’s say there is some tuning needed on the alerts.. I got 200+ messages the first half hour.. I had to turn email notifications off..

I just disabled NetData completely :P
I have an Observium server up so I will just add FreeNAS to it.
