Hi,

After working for a few days truenas refuses to reboot: apparently crashes verifying the integrity of the storage (screenshot below)
The storage has reached its full capacity (0B available)
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Dell PERC H200

48GB Ram
1x447.13 Gb SSD (Boot)
4x7.8TB (Storage)

Guys, but ..

"
Automatic Backup
TrueNAS automatically backs up the configuration database to the system dataset every morning at 3:45 (relative to system time settings). However, this backup does not occur if the system is off at that time. If the system dataset is on the boot pool and it becomes unavailable, the backup also loses availability."

So, it's possible to install new boot HD and restore from automatic backup if is store not on boot but on pool-disk?

Thanks

But, what's the procedure for install new Boot disk and restore to config on pool?

Or best way is:
- install new boot
- upload last manual config, so can view Pool
- upload last config present on Pool?

Thanks

You don't have to be able to view the pool. Here's what I wrote in an answewr to a post yesterday:

... we should recover the backup made the day before you made your upset system mods (or the most recent one made before that time). Though this can be done from the CLI, I strongly suggest that you set up root SSH access to your server and install a copy of WinSCP on your PC.

The config db file is named freenas-v1.db and is located in /data. The automagically stored copy is in the path /var/db/system in a directory that will be named configs-****random_characters****

Mine looks like this: configs-22ecd063490d4ed98c05cf93f09e5b6b and here's part of what's in it:

In the last entry are all the daily auto backups since I loaded 13.0-U1.1

My idea is for you to find what you have for "the day" before your system upset and copy that file to your freenas-v1.db on the pool using WinSCP to do so.

Make a new boot disk if you need to - the config will be read from the pool.

Good luck with this - WinSCP makes it easy to do.
