Problem restoring 9.2.1.9-config to 9.3

[tmueko]

microserver? I use the HP Microserver which has ipmi! Does your Server have IPMI? (the old HP gen.7 IPMI-Boards have problems with FreeBSD, but on the newer gen.8 an FreeNAS-9.3 you don't even need to load impi.ko, just type
# ipmitool lan print
)

On 9.3 the config is stored on a zfs boot filesystem an the usb-stick; not on your data-pool which you created with the volume manager.

PS:
1. I would: Go and get a Monitor
2. Insert a new USB-Stick and FreeNAS-Install-CD (9.2.1.x)
3. Install 9.2.1.x
4. Upload Config
5. Remove all /boot/loader.conf-Parameter from the config (disable autotune?)
6.a. Try to Upgrade to 9.3
6.b. Wait: as there are a lot of people have the same problem, the guys from IX-Systems will the Problem, i think.

Yeah I think I'm going to stay on 9.2.1.9 for a while. I can't be bothered with two days of broken when it was working fine before.

Wish I could get to the webgui though I could at least try fixing it then. Seems odd I can play movies in my browser on plex but not get to the main web gui!

Reverted to 9.2.1.9 for the time being. Config restored and not touching 9.3 for a while.

Thanks for the help and sorry for my brainfart posts
