Hi!
I've had my server with a virtualised instance of FreeNAS running for more than two years now without any issues. Until the other day, when we had a power outage at home and bad shit started to happen.
First of all, I have FreeNAS running as a VM under ESXi, with a 1015M in passthrough. Hardware otherwise is a SuperMicro X10SDV-6C-TLN4F with 64GB RAM, 3 WD Red 4TB in RAIDZ1 (I know, I know, I just cannot afford getting more disks :/ ). When power returned I realised that ESXi somehow had been corrupted and could not boot. Hell, I'll need to reinstall it. Upgraded from 6.0 to 6.7U2 at the same time. I also upgraded the VMs to version 6.7 -- I actually don't really know what that means, though. Then I started FreeNAS and it looked fine except I could not see my disks. My main pool was empty and reported status "unknown".
I would guess that I simply need to "re-attach" my HBA card or disks to FreeNAS, but I cannot find any information on how to do that. Searching lead to nothing, which makes me believe it's too simple to have been mentioned by anyone!
Thanks in advance!
