Adding a second mirror vdev to zpool

$

I'm new to FreeNAS, so if this has been asked a lot, please forgive me, but my google-fu did not really help me here :)

In the end I want to a striped mirror zpool (the zfs pendant of a RAID10) with 4 disks (I prefer it to a 4 disk RAIDZ2), but as a concession to my wife I will start out with a two disk mirror. Am I assuming right that I can, after starting out with a two disk mirror, simply add another two disk mirror after some time, and will have nearly* the same as if starting out with...

I started a thread on this project recently but the plan changed and I might have some useful items to report.

Case, moboard and power supply original T110.
Added 32 Gb memory.
Upgraded CPU to E3-1270V2.
Added Intel NICs.
Will be fitting 4x2Tb WD Red disks, waiting on Amazon delivery right now. My two test disks are connected to two of the mobo SATA connectors.

Comments.
1270V2 change is a simple "drop in" upgrade. V3 and higher versions of the 1200 CPUs will apparently not work with the...

Can't create NFS shares of iocage jail dataset

I am trying to create an NFS share to an iocage dataset. I did this with the old warden datasets in order to back up data and configs created by software running within the jail.

This is the error I get when trying to create the share:
Code:
The path must reside within a volume mount point


This is a screenshot of the error: https://puu.sh/yGGjK/0dd0d3a4e4.png

The path I am trying to use for the NFS share is: /mnt/iocage/jails/Maraschino/root

Is this an expected...

FreeNAS 11, borked permissions

I just did a clean install of FreeNAS 11 and I'm trying to set up my plugin jails again. I'm finding to my dismay that everything described in this thread is now wrong.

It seems that there is now a built-in "media" user and "media" group, both with the id 8765309. That's cute, but it breaks my previous permissions setup. I'm also having difficulty figuring out which plugins...

As promised, I'm opening this thread to discuss the new GUI, which has reached decent usability in FreeNAS 11.1-BETA1.

Due to the history this topic has with useful discussions being derailed, this thread will be more closely moderated than is typical. That means that off-topic posts or otherwise unproductive posts will be summarily deleted.
That includes the following topics/lines of reasoning:
  • Why is a new GUI needed? - Lots of reasons, this has been discussed to death....

Freenas Mini XL unresponsive, reported ipmi0 error 5f before dying

Hello --

My Freenas Mini XL reported an ipmi0 error 5f and "ipmi0 KCS: Read failed on byte 7" in console, and was unresponsive over the network via http, ssh or ping. I finally had to power it down. To try to recover:

1. I removed power cable for 20 seconds and plugged it back in. The fan spun up for a few seconds, and then spun back down. Only the Ethernet status light was on, and blinked periodically. No console output.

2. I removed the power cable for several minutes and powered back...

FreeNAS 11 crash during write

I'm extremely new to FreeNAS and just set up a new NAS. I am trying to back up all of my data to my system, but after a few hours of writing to my storage pool FreeNAS appears to crash, shutdown, and all I can see is a black screen. It requires me to physically restart the computer.

I have tried looking for some answers but most of the references I found for this issue were with users using < 2 GB of RAM on FreeNAS versions << 11.

As I am new, I really have no idea how to debug this issue...

Now I have my FreeNAS box pretty much setup, I want to be able to access it remotely in a secure manner.
Currently I am running: Nextcloud, Plex, Plexpy, Sabnzbd, Sonarr, Radarr, Headphones, NzbHydra, Jackett & Organizr as generic jails.

My idea is to setup a secure VPN connection using Pfsense. I have no experience using Pfsense whatsoever, so any advice is highly appreciated!

OS:
FreeNAS 11.0-U4
CPU: Intel Celeron G3920 Boxed
MOBO: Gigabyte...

Why is FreeNAS so hard to install?

I have 4 devices (1 Mac) in my home and I've created USBs on every one of them, no matter which machine I boot the USB from I get errors. Not just trying to install 11.1 but 11.0 and 9.3 as well. Luckily my Macbook is a 2010 model with a Superdrive and finally got to install (currently 30% on base package 1 *crosses fingers*).

Why is it so hard to install? I like it so much that I wanna make it work but it is a pain in the dickens to install/upgrade.

Update from 11 to 11.1 causes VNC display disruption and VM mac address change

I updated to 11.1 from 11 today and experienced the VNC connections both web and client to be garbled and also the mac address changed hence DHCP changed the IP. I am not 100% sure of the mac address change (I couldn't reach the old IP and don't have access to the DHCP server logs) but suspect it from the 'auto generate mac' description when the config for VNC doesn't have one specified, I was expecting it to use the one it chose in 11. The mouse in VNC is an X like old X windows, it's there...
