Jail templates missing / in a inconsistent state

[dlaflamme]

Symptom: Jails -> View Jail Templates shows only one template, VirtualBox-4.3.12. This is strange as I have both plugin jails and standard jails that were created (and still exist) with those respective jail templates.

Data:

• Build (from GUI): FreeNAS-9.10.1 (d989edd)

Other:

• I can create a VirtualBox jail without issue

Questions:

• How can I fix this?
• Where did the 9.x jails (in the DB) go?
  
• Why don't the 10.x jails (in the DB) show up in the GUI?
• Is the 9.x vs 10.x inconsistency in some of the output expected?
• Did I do something wrong to get it into this state?

Happy to file a bug/provide more info if appropriate.

Seems perfectly normal to me. 'no template' means a standard jail. Have you tried creating a jail to see your options?

 

[dlaflamme]

Hmm, interesting. So I was just able to create a standard jail by selecting the "-----" option in advanced mode in the Add Jail window. For some reason, when I did this last night I got an error message about the template not being found, which prompted by questions above.

At any rate, things still seem a bit off. For example:
- why do the 10.x jail templates not explicitly appear in the jail template list?
- what happened to the 9.3 jail templates? The behavior I would expect is for both the 10.x and 9.3 template to be available for new jail creation.

So, despite now being able to create a standard jail from the GUI, doing so by selecting "-----" is kind of bizzare.

 

[pirateghost]

It's always been like that. ----- is standard jail and has been since..forever as long as I can remember.


If you're on 9.10.x you should not have 9.3 jails available to you because the base OS is now freebsd10

 

[dlaflamme]

OK, fair enough. I guess I don't remember that and its counter-intuitive. "warden template list", for example, does what I would expect and lists all templates.

Thanks for your help.
