similar to: ZFS Panic after freebsd-update

So, I've long known and it makes sense that when you're booted from a ZFS volume, you can't mess with the boot-loader. And, I know a few months ago I had a set of commands I would use when booted from a CD that would initialize the network and copy the "release/boot" from somewhere else so that I could install bootblocks and boot-loaders from more recent code. Sadly, I

Hello -STABLE@, So I've seen this situation seemingly randomly on a number of both physical 9.1 boxes as well as VMs for I would say 6-9 months at least. I finally have a physical box here that reproduces it consistently that I can reboot easily (ie; not a production/client server). No matter what I do: reboot shutdown -p shutdown -r This specific server will stop at "All buffers

I'm getting the following warning, and then the system locks: ACPI Warning: Incorrect checksum in table [(bunch of spaces)] - 0x29, should be 0x48 Here's a pic: http://db.tt/O6dxONzI System is on a SuperMicro C7X58 motherboard that I just upgraded to BIOS 2.0a, which I would like to stay on if possible. I tried adjusting all the ACPI related BIOS settings without success. Bryce

When using svn 1.8 I have come across a situation where when it is used pointing to a symlink that refers to a working directory that a update will either segfault or exit prematurely and leave a lock held on the working directory that the symlink points to. This leaves you with one choice but to run cleanup on the referenced actual working directory which was AFAIK never the case for any version

Hi list, since we activated 10gbe on ixgbe cards + jumbo frames(9k) on 9.0 and now on 9.1 we recognize that after a random period of time, sometimes a week, sometimes only a day, the system doesn't send any packets out. The phenomenon is that you can't login via ssh, nfs and istgt is not operative. Yet you can login on the console and execute commands. A clean shutdown isn't possible

1. I have a realtek network card and am using a cable modem router. Does anyone know if fixes for problems with these (see below) have been backported from HEAD to RELENG_7? 2. Is this a good time to upgrade to RELENG_7? 3. I read a post last week that advised that 7.1 is a long way off. Appreciate any advice on use of ULE 3.0 and ZFS prior to 7.1 and a comment on what is holding up 7.1. Thanks

Hello, while checking new mtu9k-setup, I discovered that ping has some odd behaviour. If I use payloadsize > 4067, every 2nd icmp-echo-request seems to be malformed: ping -s 4068 -D 10.5.49.65 1st: 12:21:09.048447 IP 10.5.49.126 > 10.5.49.65: ICMP echo request, id 46597, seq 0, length 4076 0x0000: 4500 1000 0f2d 4000 4001 a507 0a05 317e 2nd: 12:21:10.052891 IP 10.5.49.126 >

Hi list, I am trying to install FreeBSD 9.1-Release amd64 on a Supermicro server: SuperStorage Server 6027R-E1R12N with Intel Xeon E5-2640 CPU and 32 GB (4 x 8 ) KVR16R11D4/8HC installed Currently I have only 2 SSD Kingston drives (working in mirror) installed on that server. during booting installer from the ISO CD (amd64), the boot process fails with message: Mounting from

Hi all ! Thanks for the very good support of Dell R320 hardware, perc H310 is well supported, BCM5720 seems to work correctly and performances are great. The only problem i have found is very strange. The FreeBSD bootloader take many times to load, 30sec-2minutes to boot the kernel and show the bootloader menu. After that, the system boots properly, at a normal speed. Is there any issue or

Hello zfs question about memory. I heard zfs is very ram hungry. Service looking to run: - nginx - postgres - php-fpm - python I have a machine with two quad core cpus but only 4 G Memory I'm looking to buy more ram now. What would be the recommend amount of memory for zfs across 6 drives on this setup? Also can 9.1 now boot to zfs from the installer? (no tricks for post install) Thanks

Hi, very periodically, we see I/O hangs for about 10 seconds, roughly once per minute. Each time this happens, the I/O rate simply drops to zero, and all disk access hangs; this is also very noticeable on the shell, for NFS clients etc. Everything else (networking, kernel, ?) seems to continue normally. Environment: FreeBSD 9.1R GENERIC on amd64, using ZFS, on a ARC1320 PCIe with 24x Seagate

Hi all, A recent thread inspired me to try getting a proper serial console working on a Supermicro X9SCL motherboard with IPMI. However I find that while I see loader messages and the getty I enabled after boot I don't get any kernel messages which does somewhat limit the utility.. The BMC creates COM3 (/dev/cuau2) which works with getty. I modified /boot/loader.conf like so..

Running 9.0-Stable on an i386. Whenever I type a command at the prompt I get the output /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.9: Undefined symbol "_ThreadRuneLocale" and nothing else - the command will not run. Just the above output. Commands like "ls" and "exit" work, but not much else. This happends whether I am logged in a user or as root. Cannot even halt the system from

Hello, There it is, all my computers on FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE had panic. I can just say there is a problem in the 9.1-RELEASE because I had no panic before. What afraid me is that my production server also panic'ed a few days ago, fortunately it does not appears so often. This is a panic that happened on my desktop computer, with a graphic card. The crash usually appears when X starts. GNU

Hi If I have the wrong list please feel free to redirect me. I'm running 7.0-RELEASE-p4 and trying to backup to an external USB drive.

Hello, I tried to get my sound working, and long story short: rc.d/sysctl parses sysctl.conf wrongly if there are sysctls of the form mib=val1=val2 which is what you need for sound. For reference I needed/wanted dev.hdaa.4.nid25_config=as=1,seq=15 dev.hdaa.4.nid31_config=as=1 I believe the following patch would address the incorrect parsing: --- /etc/rc.d/sysctl.old 2013-02-27

Hello All, I mentioned a problem with this once before, and was referred to other threads that also talked about this. But I believe a recent problem I was experiencing, may have been related to this: [: -le: argument expected. So I'd like to bring it up again, in hopes that someone might have a cure. Specifically, two printf()'s are sent to the same line, which results in a /very/ hard
