I needed to start all over as my tinkering had resulted in some discs being inaccessible (partition tables got in the way perhaps when I tried to erase the earlier zpool??).

In order to clear the drives and reformat, I arranged for a Ubuntu flach drive, and used it to reformat the drives as GUID volumes with one partition (XFS, arranged for FreeBSD zfs data).

When I boot FreeNAS, I can use the shell to find the discs in the /dev directory, called ada0 through ada6. In addittion, there is one partition on each drive, ada0p1 etc.

FreeNas reports it should be accessible at 10.0.1.8, but when I direct my browser to that address I get the response:
Unhandled exception
An unhandled excepton was thrown by the application

The FreeNAS machine is responding to pings just as before in less than 0,24 ms.

Where did I go wrong?

Thanks for assistance, peter

Did two things:
1. Reformatted all the drives such that they have a GUID volume, but no partition.
2. Reloaded the USB plug with the same software aagain (FreeNAS-8.0.1-RC1-amd64 (7508))

This had two effects (both good):
1. FreeNAS can now be accessed through the WebGUI
2. All disks are now available

Can't tell which action created which result.

Though a good guess is that the Ubuntu formatting recovered the disks.

BR,

peter
