I have a repurposed PC that I am running TrueNAS Core 12 on as a media server.
Mobo - Pegatron IPMMB-FM with latest BIOS (2014)
CPU - Core i7 3770
RAM - 4 x 4 GB Mushkin Redline DDR3 non ECC
HBA - IBM M1015 9220-8i flashed with IT firmware
Boot pool - 2 x Kingston SSD 200GB connected to the Mobo SATA ports in a mirror.
Data pool - 6+1 x WD Red Plus CMR 4 TB HDD in two RAIDZ1 vdevs plus one hot spare all connected to the IBM HBA.
So I'll start out by saying I'm an idiot and I replaced a failing drive in one of my vdevs without following the proper procedure because I was in a hurry that day and just plain forgot. When my box didn't reboot I knew immediately what I had done wrong and powered it off and returned the failing drive to the machine. Feel free to point and giggle or send dunce cap emojis.
With the original drive replaced it still wouldn't reboot so I plugged in a monitor and keyboard and it gives me the same error every time.
good
not supported
ZFS can only boot from drive, mirror, raidz1, raidz2, raidz3
better
not supported
done
ZFS found the following pools: Gallifrey boot-pool
UFS found no partition
Consoles: EFI consoles
ZFS can only boot from drive, mirror, raidz1, raidz2, raidz3
The bolded items only appear once, the other lines appear multiple times. I have attached a photo of the screen with the errors below.
If I disconnect the cables from the IBM HBA the system boots. If I plug them back in it won't.
I have gone into BIOS and disabled every device except the SSDs from the boot order. I have entered the Setup menu and used the boot menu to tell it to boot from one or the other of the SSDs. Nothing matters. If the data pool drives are attached the same errors come up.
It seems as if the IBM HBA is somehow able to override the boot order but I'm not sure how or why.
I was prepared to blow away my data pool and start over as I have backups of everything that matters and can re-rip the video collection if need be but I can't boot if the data pool drives are connected.
Short of pulling every drive and putting it in my HDD dock and formatting it I'm not sure what else to try. I am not even convinced that doing that will work.
I would greatly appreciate any insights you may have.
Thank-you for taking the time to read my post.
