Hi all,
I'll try to keep this short, I've dobe a numberof searches and read a lot of articles and much seems to have changed for Truenas compared to older versions of Freenas.
To keep it short I used to run Freenas a long while back and then moved to Nas4free mainly due to the knowledgebase still veing present for that version.
I'm now trying to setup my server properly for some services instead of it effectively being a data store.
My use case is I have a single storage pool - Mirrored/Stripe ZFS (4 drives). I have created the pool and its currently blank.
Ideally i want to host a few jails/containers and have this be a server of services rather than files etc.
I will eventually transfer my data from my old server to the new one but really want to have my storage on the pool set up in a nice segregated way, with certain jails/containers able to have a read access to certain directories etc. I'd also like to use encryption on some data, but don't want to store keys or cache them locally or have to type in a password every single time if at all possible.
Basically I'm looking for a tried and tested setup that will work for the latest edition of Truenas. With segregation of data, making it easy to back up/update the jails containers etc. Once this server is setup on Truenas and it works, i'll be upgrading my old nas4free server so may have the option of syncing data etc.
Really appreciate anyone sharing their setup and hints/tips with what has worked for them.
