How to reset Apps completely?

[zyrex]

I've posted a thread about apps not wanting to start here already, https://www.truenas.com/community/posts/733818/

However, I'm quite done with the troubleshooting and trying different things, since none of it have helped.

Now I'd like to just reset the apps-portion of my Truenas-install completely, so I could get the apps up and running again. I didn't have many, so it would be less hassle.

I tried unsetting the pool, then deleting the ix-applications dataset, rebooting, and choosing a pool when it asks me to. But I'm still greeted with the same error as I've had all along.

{/var/log/k3s_daemon.log}
Jan 25 15:41:31 megabyte k3s[1786492]: E0125 15:41:31.723499 1786492 kubelet.go:1397] "Failed to start ContainerManager" err="failed to initialize top level QOS containers: root container [kubepods] doesn't exist"

and the issue that the k3s-service won't start. It still behaves the same way.

I've waited several hours to see if it needed to settle, but no change.

Sounds to me like a fresh install may be the way forward...

Import your config if really necessary or just import your pool(s) and go from scratch.

Could you describe your drives and pools...I've seen a potential correlation with larger HDD pools.

Right, good point, should've thought of that.

3 pools, quite modest:

NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE CKPOINT EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT
backuppool 16.4T 13.1T 3.27T - - 56% 80% 1.00x ONLINE /mnt
boot-pool 222G 8.52G 213G - - 0% 3% 1.00x ONLINE -
mediapool 36.4T 25.4T 10.9T - - 5% 69% 1.05x ONLINE /mnt
vaultpool 10.9T 5.86T 5.05T - - 3% 53% 1.00x ONLINE /mnt

ix-applications were on mediapool.

backuppool is 3x6TB WD Reds, CMR, RAIDz1
mediapool is 4x10TB TOSHIBA_MG06ACA10TE, CMR, RAIDz1
vaultpool is 4x3TB HGST_HDN724030ALE640, CMR, RAIDz2

So I now I actually went to this step, reinstalled my system, without restoring my config just to be sure no old stuff came along, and I still get the same error as I did before. Kinda tired of this now.

Yeah, I had to give up too. This k3s crap is horrible. I can't delete an app no matter how hard I try. I've unset the Apps pool, and destroyed it. Once I create a NEW pool the old broken app comes right back!!!!!!
