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...

Hi, I had a bad luck. While resilvering a two way mirror, the other HDD threw 35 errors. I have a backup in AWS Deep Archive, but retrieving the data is costly. There are currently 46 Current_Pending_Sectors on the bad drive, which is not much when 1 physical sector is 4KB right? Instead of...

I wanted to boot my FreeBSD server from a mirror, but I wanted to mirror both ZFS pool and the EFI partition. So I performed this kind of configuration: # gpart create -s gpt nvd0 # gpart create -s nvd1 # gpart add -t efi -s 200M nvd0 # gpart add -t efi -s 200M nvd1 # gpart add -t freebsd-zfs...

Updating a mirrored zpool with larger disks, one at a time. Got about halfway through when the server unexpectedly rebooted (still unknown why, but that's beside the point). The device labels (/dev/daX) were reshuffled, but I'm manually assigning zfs labels so it shouldn't have been an...

Before I begin, I'd like to say yes, this was not wise of me. I recently reorganized a bunch of configuration using symlinks. Everything was going great and I was totally pumped about my new organizing scheme, but upon rebooting, things went... poorly. The issue is that some of the symlinks I...

I have a 3-way mirrored ZFS pool configured for backup purposes, alongside a ZFS-on-root pool that my system utilizes. All hard drives in the setup have GPT labels. Recently, I encountered an issue where ada0p1 was missing its label when I ran the zpool status command. Fortunately, I managed to...

question about acl permission. Files that could be deleted with freeBSD12 cannot be deleted with FreeBS13. I updated os from freebsd12.0 to freensd13.2, and updated samba from Version 4.8.12 to Version 4.19.7. via samba, user can delete/rename and file in freebsd12.0, but can't delete/rename...

I have backup on my whole src pool, stored on the server: data/backup/src_pool. Backup was made with zfs snapshot -r src_pool@migrate zfs send -Rv src_pool@migrate | zfs recv data/backup/src_pool Now I am trying to restore it to the root of the new pool zfs create new_pool ... zfs snapshot...

Hi, I am setting up a very simple FreeBSD hypervisor in my homelab mainly for learning purpose as I am new to FreeBSD, Bhyve and ZFS. - The host is pretty small: 12Gb of RAM and 500Gb of disk - I opted for a very simple setup for now: ZFS with one disk and one zpool (zroot). - I use vm-bhyve -...

We have few servers with 14.1-RELEASE-p4, all of them have significant memory leak Please, help us find out what exactly leaking and fix it. Intersting observation is 14.1-RELEASE-p3 don't have the issue, with same set of services/processes/aplications. here is top header Mem: 135G Active, 31G...

So I took recursive snapshots: sudo zfs snapshot -r prime@snap Then I tried to send: sudo zfs send -R prime@snap| pv | ssh wsenn@fenris "sudo zfs recv -Fd prime" It went swimmingly until it hit 3.23 GiB, then the clock keeps ticking, but the network activity grinds to a halt. Help. Here's...

I have set up an nfs share on my local home network as follows: zfs list prime/ark 12.8G 883G 12.8G /ark vipw - change my user to 1000 to match linux vigr - change my group to 1000 to match linux recursively chown the zfs mount point to my user and group...

I just notice that my swap (encrypted, created during install with zfs auto install option) isn't decrypting or mounting at all. beastie@BattleStar-Lat54 --> ~ Ψ cat /etc/fstab < 21:36 > <...

Hi, I asked this first on Practical ZFS, but will repeat it here. tldr; zfs snapshots of datasets are empty? # uname -a FreeBSD zabbix 14.1-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE-p3 GENERIC amd64 # zfs list NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT zroot...

Hi, in older version of FreeBSD zfs pools were visible after reboot and in their history was not filled with repeated "import" items. After a break i get back to FreeBSD 14.0R/14.1R and i see that on every reboot non boot pools have new "import" item. Is there a way to have additional non-boot...

Which method (or utility set) would be best for making EVERYDAY ZFS snapshots of server’s current FreeBSD system (whole system installed but NOT THE WHOLE DRIVE) to internal USB 2.0 pen-drive? Need to NOTE: this USB 2.0 pen-drive are FORMATTED as bootable (by periodically downloading from...
