SOLVED Losing data on my SMB share since latest FreeNAS-9.10-STABLE update

[picklefish]

Edit: After checking my memory and looking at everything I'm convinced my VirtualBox VM is just going nuts and deleting stuff as some files inside of the VM are also missing. It's time to take VirtualBox out to the field and shoot it until 9.10.3 VM support.

Virtual machine is running 16.04 Ubuntu

I have random data just disappearing from my SMB. Nothing has changed on my end. Yesterday I tried to move some files to a folder and they all just disappeared. I just restarted my ubuntu virtual machine and 12 larger files (4gb-8gb) were missing that hadn't even been touched recently. Has anyone else seen anything remotely similar to this? I don't know what to do.

This is occurring on both Windows (the drag and drop) and Ubuntu.

I got this last night while I was moving some files, I don't think it's related but I don't know.

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/midclt", line 9, in <module>
	load_entry_point('middlewared==0.0.0', 'console_scripts', 'midclt')()

Please post the specs of your FreeNAS server as per the forum rules.

I updated it, thank you.

Also, please post the output of ifconfig and the contents of /var/log/messages (preferably from a time when you try to transfer a large file).

I've figured out what the issue was.

I had too many files and folders in a single folder. I spread stuff out into other folders and it seems to be working fine now. I moved the entire folder to a different dataset and it still occurred. That's why I was having no issue with data in other areas or even nearby folders. Kind of scary that it can just delete data like that with no warning (that I could find) when a folder has too many files/folders.

Thanks for the help. I'll update this if it doesn't go away.
