SOLVED missing snapshot replication status in the interface

[Guri89]

Hi,

I'm new to FreeNAS, still playing around with 11U4 in a VM for now.
Trying the periodic snapshot and replication tasks.

I have two volumes:

• tank, with a videos dataset, and a nested videos/movies dataset
• backup (no dataset in there)

I want, for testing purposes, to snapshot and replicate tank/videos/movies to the backup volume

I do the following:

• create a periodic snapshot task for tank/videos/movies
• create a replication task for tank/videos/movies:
  remote ZFS volume: backup
  remote hostname: localhost

SSH enabled, keys are set, etc. Everything actually works:

• a snapshot of tank/videos/movies is automatically created
• the backup/videos dataset, as well as the backup/videos/movies nested dataset are automatically created
• my tank/videos/movies@auto-20171016.2335-1h snapshot is replicated to backup/videos/movies@auto-20171016.2335-1h

BUT

in the web interface, if I go to Storage/Snapshots, I do NOT have a OK in the Replication column, for tank/videos/movies@auto-20171016.2335-1h. It's empty.

If I make periodic snapshot + replication for tank/videos I see the OK replication status, but snapshot + replication of a nested dataset seems to confuse it.
Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

No, it's a bug: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/19406.
