I'm 6 months new to FreeNAS. I'm really enjoying its capabilities. My system has 12 drives for data, 2 mirrors for jail confirmations and an ssd for booting. i7 8 core processor with 32GB of RAM (non-ECC). Barebone hardware (I have read way too many warnings about running FreeNAS on virtual environments).
I primarily use my server for Owncloud and Plexmedia Server.
Last night I decided I wanted to install a Linux Jail (CentOS) to migrate my email server over to (Kero Connect 8.2.4 32bit).
When I installed the Jail I was running 9.2.1.1. Once I turned off diskspace checking with the RPM, the install of Kerio went perfectly. Starting Kerio is when my problems really began. Logging on to the admin page the system was complaining about no drive space and so it was shutting down the services. I have many TB available on all drives. That being said, I get the following output when doing a DF:
[root@Kerio /]# df df: `/dev/shm': No such file or directory df: `/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc': No such file or directory Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 2873556944 23652312 2849904632 1% / sysfs 4 4 0 100% /sys devpts 1 1 0 100% /dev/pts /dev/sda1 2873556944 23652312 2849904632 1% /boot
My second problem is that I cannot shutdown Kerio using services. What is even more frustrating is that I cannot even kill each individual process under the Linux Jail or under FreeNAS itself (by command line). The only way to kill the Kerio server is to reboot FreeNAS.
I upgraded FreeNAS last night to 9.2.1.5 to see if that would fix my problem. Nope. I see nothing out of the ordinary when looking at the log files.
So my questions are:
1) Is there a way to trick Linux into thinking there is a lot of space on the system?
2) Any suggestions as to how to get Kerio to shutdown without rebooting the whole server?
3) Is there a way to install a Jail without having to reboot the whole NAS?
4) Is there a way to reboot or shutdown a Jail without taking down the whole NAS?
5) And unrelated to my issues, when upgrading the drive sizes or replacing a bad drive on the NAS is there not an automated process so you just pull the drive and stick in the new drive (like QNAP)? I had a drive failure while I was on holiday (out of Country) and my buddy didn't read the manual pages I sent him on taking a drive off line before pulling the drive. We finally got the drive replaced, but it took a few reboots, even during the swap process, and yes, I have the type of controller that supports hot swap (ADCP or what ever its called).
Thanks for your help!
