In /etc/defaults/periodic.conf, there's this part about periodic ZFS scrubs: # 800.scrub-zfs daily_scrub_zfs_enable="NO" daily_scrub_zfs_pools="" # empty string selects all pools daily_scrub_zfs_default_threshold="35" # days between scrubs...

In /etc/defaults/periodic.conf, there's this part about daily ZFS backups: # 223.backup-zfs daily_backup_zfs_enable="NO" # Backup output from zpool/zfs list daily_backup_zfs_props_enable="NO" # Backup zpool/zfs filesystem properties...

Hello, I'm trying to create a FreeBSD/Windows dual-boot setup on one of my machines (I know, I know, but I need Windows for certain tasks at my job). I have done this before by installing Windows first, leaving some free space, and then creating zfs-root and zfs-swap slices/datasets by hand in...

Hello to all, unfortunately I'm facing infamous messages when booting, when I'm trying to recover friend's NAS, which I installed last year. zio_read error: 5 ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable ZFS can't read MOS of pool zroot It seems, it reaches up to stage 2, but gptzfsboot...

For various reasons including regulatory compliance, I would like to have a Write Once, Read Many (WORM) storage partition and wanted to know if ZFS can enable this.

With the release 14.0, I plan to switch to FreeBSD as my main OS. Unfortunately, some of the programs I use work only on Linux, so I will still have to boot to Linux from time to time. I am wondering how to structure my storage. In my notebook, I can place 4 disks in total, 3 SSDs (2 NVMe M.2 +...

Hi, Is there any way to verify that my native encryption ZFS datasets are benefiting from CPU AES-NI support? I can't see anything in dmesg regarding CPU capabilities, though installed processor is Intel Xeon CPU E5-2620 v4 which supports AES-NI instructions. Thanks

Hi! I have a problem with resuming, after one more upgrade to newer sources. System version: FreeBSD bsdlap 14.0-STABLE FreeBSD 14.0-STABLE #0 stable/14-n265656-4671836d7ba3: Sat Oct 28 13:44:15 CEST 2023 root@bsdlap:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/MINI amd64 After resuming system seems...

I have a 13.2-RELEASE-p4 machine with four hard drives. They are all partitioned just like this one: # gpart show ada0 => 40 35156656048 ada0 GPT (16T) 40 532480 1 efi (260M) 532520 2008 - free - (1.0M) 534528 33554432 2...

Hey folks, I've stumbled upon a strange issue on my server concerning a discrepancy in 'used' space between two ZFS volumes after a ZFS send/receive operation. I transferred data from basia-ssd/vm-118-disk-0 to basia-nvme/vm-118-disk-0. Initially, the source volume basia-ssd/vm-118-disk-0...

I must destroy and recreate a ZFS pool. Please don't ask me why; it's a long story. The pool contains just one volume, named "depo". Of course, I had to back up the whole volume. Since ZFS replication won't work (long story...), I decided to mount two NTFS-formatted (ada0 and da0) drives and...

I have been testing my setup on an Oracle Virtual Box, Virtual Machine Manager, and VMware with EFI turned on. I have continued FreeBSD setup up to the Partitioning step, then selected shell and entered the following, # sysctl kern.disks # gpart destroy -F ada0 # gpart create -s gpt ada0 #...

My goal was to install FreeBSD with GELI and ZFS alongside of currently installed Windows 10. I am testing it on an Oracle Virtual Box with EFI turned on. I have continued FreeBSD setup up to the Partitioning step, then selected shell and entered the following, gpart add -t freebsd-swap -s...

Hi, I'm deploying my first FreeBSD server and I've run into a gray area. I installed using the automatic partitioning of the installer. zpool status shows: pool: zroot state: ONLINE config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM zroot ONLINE 0 0 0...

My current installation of FreeBSD 13.2 is on a single SSD disk. Unfortunately, at the time I was installing it, I had Linux running on the other two SSDs, which I now intend to use for FreeBSD. Those 2 SSD were, in fact, configured as RAID-1 mirror zfs under Linux and that worked great. Only, I...

All of this is happening on the same Comp/Box. SSD1 (I installed OS) began using the system. zfs import -F -o altroot (nv1 zfs) zfs send -vR zpool export (nv1 zfs) NV1 (I install OS) for backup source. zfs receive -uvF =========================================== When I start the OS in NV1...

I'm trying to program html and PHP pages and use an external file manager that works over SSH to edit files directly on the server. Then I refresh a page in a browser to visualize the changes. However, the web root is on a ZFS partition and there's a noticeable several-seconds delay, which is...

Hi, I have installed FreeBSD on an amd64 laptop, and the only issue with it is an apparently long-standing bug in support for eMMC storage (https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211705#c3), which I would like to investigate. But I'm stuck even getting an unmodified but locally...
