JIRA TICKET: https://ixsystems.atlassian.net/browse/NAS-123504?jql=issueKey in (NAS-123504,NAS-123505)

Hello,

The server has been stable for the past couples of weeks but today happened something very weird. All of a sudden the server rebooted by itself. It happened when the kids were watching Plex and I was updating TrueNAS integration + adding my Hue Bridge on Home Assistant.

Now every time I reboot the server I'm getting this message in the iDRAC console;

After 15 minutes it's booting to TrueNAS, unfortunately some things seems to have broke since that reboot.

Thank you!

Nope. Judging by the ghost replies here I guess it's a new bug since the latest version.

I waited 12 ish minutes then it booted and all my pool were fine. Strange issue

It sometimes does an issue like that when you replicate a dataset that has replications on it or something like that.

Hmmm strange.. ive got heavy script backup up from apps pool to and otherpool to a dataset plus got snapshots on vms and db then replicated to the other pool

 

[CheeryFlame]

Do you replicate your heavy script backups to another dataset? If yes, does that other dataset is replicated to somewhere else? This would be the issue.

 

[mrfr34ky]

"Do you replicate your heavy script backups to another dataset?" Yes

"If yes, does that other dataset is replicated to somewhere else?" No

 

[mrfr34ky]

When you follow the guide for heavyscript it will set up the replication which contains the snapshot part as well. Thats all I did, plus as I said i created snapshots for my DB and VMs then replicated those

 

[CheeryFlame]

Then it shouldn't be that. Can't help unfortunately, I'm not an advanced user.

Glad I'm not the only one. Hopefully this gets fixed in a future update.

I can clear out qBittorrent from this issue. Actually applications have nothing to do with it. Just rebooted and still getting this.

I hope some moderators will see this topic and investigate this issue that seems to happen since the latest update.

IIRC if I remember correctly (I just looked at this in another thread) all the service in question here does is import the pool at startup.
I’m not sure what might cause the delay in the pool import process for you, it would be helpful to look at your pool layout.
What does

Code:

zpool list -v

Say?

It may be helpful to know what version of TN you first created your pool

Boot Pool Management

Provides instructions on managing the TrueNAS SCALE boot pool and boot environments.

And whether or not you have upgraded your pool

And whether or not you have upgraded your pool: No

What's interesting is that you are both experiencing the problem and you are both using mirrored boot pools. It may be worth testing to see if the problem exists if you remove one of the boot drives.

If it does not, you have a pretty good case for there being a bug.

 

[impovich]

I got exactly the same issue after upgrading to 22.12.3.2.
I do not have boot-pool mirrored

 

[NickF]

Hmmm
Sounds worthy of a big ticket at this point I think.

This is so annoying, gosh! Anyone made a ticket? I'm not too sure how to report this properly and haven't got lot of time right now trying to fix my server issues while it's summer vacation and there's a lot of people coming by.

When I updated to the latest patch the server came back rather quickly for me. Did you already update to 22.12.3.3?
