Hi! Does the sight of a poorly formatted, though syntactically valid, configuration file make at least one of your eyelids twitch? Have you ever disowned a family member after failing to convince them to back up their systems properly? Have you ever spent an evening compulsively labeling cables in an operational rack? If you answered ?Yes, oh God, yes!!? to at least 2 of the 3 questions above,

I have a Cyber Power LE1000DG UPS I got from Best Buy this weekend. I plan to use it with a TrueNAS scale system, and it is connected via USB. Vendor link: https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/product/ups/battery-backup/le1000dg/. TrueNAS has you pick a UPS driver. I could not find any "LE" related models on https://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html (which is the list TrueNAS uses). Per

I have a Smart-UPS RT 3000 XL connected via serial cable to TrueNAS TrueNAS-9.2.1.2-RELEASE-x64 (002022c) which runs on FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE-p3. When I start the NUT service, I get the message: Oct 20 01:53:50 truenas notifier: very old or unknown APC model, support will be limited Which I interpret as an indicator of less than optimal operating mode. I suspect that the model identifier is not

Are any plans for an API that would allow ZFS commands including snapshot/rollback integrated with customer''s application? Thanks, Cherry

Hi everyone. I'm looking to solve an issue with Samba on a NAS being accessed with TreeSize Pro. Using that program to scan through millions of files is eating up memory on swap and eventually crashing the system. It's scanning mounted CIFS shares on the NAS running TrueNAS with samba version 3.6.9 We have a test case and have been able to replicate the issue on another machine. The

Hi I have a bunch of FreeNAS servers and a TrueNAS HA server all spamming the logs with these messages every minute about their own source name (examples below). These boxes are on two physically separate networks, and I find it unlikely both networks should have some sort of undetected loop. Any ideas on how to debug this? Samba version is 4.1.18. FreeNAS box on network A " Jan 5

In another thread recursive snapshot creation was found atomic so that it is done quickly, and more important, all at once or nothing at all. Do you know if recursive destroying and renaming of snapshots are atomic too? Regards Henrik Heino

Hi. While submitting SDR-0149 on ZFS bug I encountered problem with format utility. This is v240 with snv_29 with internal disks. On s0 slices there is zfs pool (which is not imported). I did unload zfs modules then moved zfs driver and run format. Now format quits just because there''s no zfs module (and not even one zfs pool is imported). It shouldn''t behave that

Heya, first time posting to a mailing list so please excuse me if I do something wrong :) I'm new to NUT and trying to get things working on my TrueNAS, I have a "Vultech 1500VA" UPS which comes with the software "PowerManager II" and it seems to be using the "richcomm_usb" driver. There are 5 devices in the compatibility list and I tried all of them, sadly to

I contacted the author of ''lsof'' regarding the missing ZFS support. The command works but fails to display any files that are opened by the process in a ZFS filesystem. He indicates that the required ZFS kernel structure definitions (header files) are not shipped with the OS. He further indicated that he rummaged through the OpenSolaris source tree and the files doesn''t

Hello and welcome! Just recently there was a trip down the memory lane with another device with Richcomm-based hardware, and ultimately nutdrv_qx driver happened to support that one: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues/2395 Some key take-aways were: * try starting the driver with bumped debug verbosity (e.g. from command line, or using a `debug_min` setting with NUT v2.8.0 and

Hi all, I am in the process of finding the best way to use Samba4 as an AD under FreeBSD and ZFS. The following is based on own research, google, mail archives, a bit of source code etc. So please correct me if I am wrong. 1. ZFS is using NFSv4 ACLs. 2. NFSv4 ACLs are modelled with NTFS (Windows) ACLs in mind. 3. Samba4 started with a new ntvfs file server but that was abandoned (or

We have finished a beta version of the feature. A webrev for it can be found here: http://cr.illumos.org/~webrev/sensille/fits-send/ It adds a command ''zfs fits-send''. The resulting streams can currently only be received on btrfs, but more receivers will follow. It would be great if anyone interested could give it some testing and/or review. If there are no objections,

I''m trying to write a SLAMD (http://www.slamd.com/) resource monitor that can be used to measure the I/O throughput on a ZFS pool, and in particular to be able to get the read and write rates. In order to do this, I''m basically executing "zpool iostat {interval}" and parsing the output to capture the values in the "bandwidth read" and "bandwidth
