Hello. I created new vm, here is config: vm config loader="bhyveload" cpu="6" memory="8G" network0_type="virtio-net" network0_switch="public" disk0_type="virtio-blk" disk0_name="disk0.img" disk1_type="virtio-blk" disk1_name="disk1.img" disk2_type="virtio-blk" disk2_name="disk2.img"...

hello, so I set up NAS: RAIDz2 of 8 x WD hc530 with special vdev (Samsung PM963), Ryzen 8400f, 32 GB ashift=12, recordsize=4M, others are quite default playing with compression types I clearly see reasonable cpu load with compressions during write. But I don't see it for reading (while speed...

When I check the TRIM support for the drives I get "unsupported": zpool status -t zroot pool: zroot state: ONLINE config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM zroot ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0 da0p3 ONLINE...

Hi, I've got the following problem. I'm writing a script to set my ACL on my ZFS Samba file server. Some facts: NFSv4 ACL entries are evaluated in their visible order. In Windows ACLs, the deny permissions generally take precedence over allow permissions. This means deny ACL entries must be...

I'd like to be able to recover from a scenario where / filesystem is corrupted. Like if I inadvertently delete some or all configuration files in /etc or the procedures in /boot for instance and may not be able to boot anymore. What I've done so far in a VM to learn how to do that kind of...

Hi, I am using FreeBSD 14.1 with ZFS in mirror configuration on GELI encrypted partitions. My root-pool looks like this: How would I go about changing references to using GPT-labels instead? Thanks in advance!

Hi! I've moved FreeBSD from an old disk to a new one. The disk has 50 GiB space available. Partitions are (it is a gpt partitioned disk): # gpart show => 40 104857520 vtbd0 GPT (50G) 40 1024 1 freebsd-boot (512K) 1064 12582912 2 freebsd-swap...

Hi. Yesterday, I did zpool scrubbing my first time, then I got too many errors error about one disk, the pool is called tank and used to have 3 disks mirrored, I removed the disk that give errors and the pool has now 2 disks and sufficient replicas, but, today, I did a long test with smartctl...

I have M.2 SSD that is currently not performing well, I suspect that it may die soon. The question is - how do I migrate zpool to a bigger drive? Of course I will make dd backup before anything. Do I just dd it on new drive, then how do I expand zfs pool? Or perhaps, using zfs send to replicate...

Hi, Since a new upgrade of my pc I've not been able to boot from ZFS if installed with the default ZFS (auto) option from the FreeBSD installer. The Bios / Firmware does not see the boot drive(s). Tried this with a single disk (Stripe) and with a dual disk (mirror). So far I've not found...

Greeting. Currently I use NFSv3 and export all dataset individually. That's cumbersome, and NFSv4 has greater perfomance and I want it I have exports like /home/user/development /mnt/s-drive /mnt/s-drive/backup NFSv4 demands a single root point, like / or / But my exports doesn't. The way I...

Problem: I have been using GPT partitions with Fat32 file system, mainly because it is said to be the most commonly supported filesystem among different systems, which I do not doubt. However, change of plans. I no longer trust the Fat32 file system. I just had a bad experience with missing...

Hi mates! After a sudden power outage my raidz pool state has changed to DEGRADED. My box is FreeBSD 14.1 # zpool status -v storage pool: storage state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices could not be used because the label is missing or invalid. Sufficient replicas exist for the...

I'm curious what shell scripts you all have written to keep up with your storage. I'm mostly curious about the output, i.e., what insights do you find regularly useful? Here's my favorite. It's actually 5 scripts called by one alias: $ storage_report DEV CAPAC ZPOOL TMP AGE SLFTEST...

I am comfortable with the process of installing FreeBSD to zfs, when (at least) one entire disk becomes the target. This option is available in bsdinstall. I am also familiar with the process of creating a custom size freebsd-ufs slice and making that slice to be the installation target. This I...

Hi, I'm currently managing a rented server from a provider (OVH) that does not allow to natively install freeBSD. However, it is still possible and so I installed freebsd 14.1 from the official sources (the BASIC-CLOUDINIT-zfs version). My server has 4 identical hard drives (ada0, ada1, ada2...

Hi all.. I am trying to install the FreeBSD-14.1 on a new hardware. the booting from ISO itself gets stuck while loading Broadcom SAS3816 driver from what it looks like. https://www.freebsd.org/releases/14.0R/hardware/ does list - Broadcom Ltd./Avago Tech (LSI) SAS 3816 (16 Port SAS/PCIe) - as...

Hello everyone, I've looked through all the questions about ZFS share through NFS and did not found any solution of my problem. I am creating ZFS share on freeBSD14 and then trying to mount it on MacOS. So here is the /etc/rc.conf hostname="zfscheck" ifconfig_em0="DHCP" sshd_enable="YES"...

I have this nvd0 NVMe ssd, after a power failure, it's stuck in mountroot with error 6. I can link the hwprobe link. Anyone who can shine some light here? I just want to access and transfer data in nvd0p4. Use data recovery tool? live cd? shell? Can't I just install a new system -like...

Hi, It seems I have an opportunity to switch a laptop to freebsd. I like ZFS and would be interested in making the most out of it. I also need to keep my hard drive encrypted in case the laptop gets stolen. I heard about using ZFS's native encryption for this kind of scenario. Does it support...
