Hi all,
let me just say off the bat that I've read everything I could find on the issue, and while much of that was helpful in understanding the reasons behind the crash and what generally can be done to prevent solve many related problems, it did not solve my issue. Let me start by listing my build:
FreeNAS 9.2.1.8
Supermicro X8STE
6x4Gb ECC DDR3 RAM
6x2Tb WD Red setup as RAIDZ2
We have established with almost absolute certainty that the issue came up because of a faulty memory module, as supported by the fact that BIOS and MemTest only recognized 16 of the 24Gb RAM. Further slot testing narrowed it to just the one module being faulty, so we discarded a pair of modules, and were left with the 16Gb. We rebooted to no effect, the error still shows at the point of mounting the pool during boot.
We tried importing the pool using various importing commands offered on forums, including using -f flag, forced import, as well as X forced import. It would return with either fatal trap 9 or 12, depending on the command. We tried the same thing with the new FreeNAS 9.2.1.9 on another stick, where we would first get notified that the pool may be in use by another system (the old one), and if we try to force it, it again returns with the fatal traps.
We read what was said here, and the main proposition we see is creating another pool and migrating the data over there. Since our data is of enormous importance to us and the well-being of our business, and since we see no way of accessing the data so as to be able to migrate it, we were wondering if anyone has a solution to this?
Are we missing anything in this process? Hopefully something simple and stupid which makes us look like complete idiots, but idiots with their data safe and sound...
Thanks.
