Hi,

After reading the following threads below I'm getting a bit nervous, indeed.

Hi, can someone from ixsystems please comment on this issue? This would be a catastrophic bug!

FreeNAS (now TrueNAS) is no longer stable

Hello, I'm writing this with deeply concerns about TrueNAS/FreeNAS and the move that seemed a little bit irresponsible regarding quality and testing. I have three virtualization pools that relied on FreeNAS for years. One specifically is running since 2013, other 2014 and the newer one since...

TrueNas - input-output error but ZFS is clean

OS: TrueNAS-12.0-U1, command as root directly on the server (ssh) dmesg doesn't report anything, zfs pool looks ok. When I try to see the contents of some files, I get an input/output error. (cat, ...) I can see the content of the folders, other files in the folders work as expected. The issue...

Hang tight. We have been responding on the ticket and threads. So far risk appears very low, and only appears when running virtualization workloads with some very specific set of conditions. As difficult as it's been to get a verified reproduction case, it's definitely not widespread.

So there is already 4 threads about this that you included in your OP about the same issue and you saw fit to start another one? For what purpose?

Counterpoint - I've been running virtual workloads (ESXi 6.7U3 + Horizon View 7.12) on TrueNAS 12.0 without corruption.

Caveat though is that the only VM "running off a snapshot" is the gold master image, and I don't beat on this specific environment that hard.
