I have a Plex jail created in Freenas 9x. Now in Freenas 11.2u8, I haven't been able to update plex unless I create plex in iocage. I have over 4k movies and about 300 TV shows. I have looked at videos on how to create iocage jails for plex, but no videos on how to tranfer or migrate all of my media safely. I have 1 question, can I create a Plex jail in iogage with the same mnt points as the plex in warden jail.

Minecraft Bedrock server on FreeNAS
I apologize for my ignorance. I actually worked with UNIX (and CPM) systems about 35 years ago. I can say, it's not quite like riding a bike, but I do remember snippets of things as I'm starting my journey into Linux. I'm enjoying this path of discovery immensely, but I'm afraid having a job with long hours and a wife and daughters that demand my time mean I just need to find out how to get things done. Syncthing had me pulling my hair out, by the way. If I ever retire, I'd like to make...

Is it possible to change RAID configuration
Hi,
so I am a newbie when it comes to NAS and RAID,
I tried searching, but I couldn't find much.
So, when building my machine people told me to just do it in RAID 1, that way my files will be safe and it makes sense, so I did it, and I knew that out of 2 x 4TB HDDs I'll be able to use only 3,8TB or so, I was fine with that, now I'm kind of regretting it because I am at 82% used already,
so I would like to know if it is possible to "unraid" (haha), my HDDs, so that 1 still has all...

Migrate to new boot disk
Hi,
I want to switch to use a usb flash drive instead of an SD card to boot freenas 11.
I have backed up my freenas.
what is the easiest way to migrate?
can I safely remove the sd card while freenas is running? Dd copy to the new usb. Then insert the usb and reboot?
they are different sizes so my be easier to install a fresh copy of freenas and restore the config to it from the backup?
advice needed to make this as quick and easy as possible.
thanks in advance

New Freenas system with DELL R720xd crashes every one or two days
Hi, I finally switched from a windows file server, which worked very smooth to a freenas system. I am not a totally noob, but rather unexperienced with freenas. I build up a system with DELL R720xd and changed the controller to a Dell PERC H710 mini mono LSI P20 it mode.
Everything works fine for a while. After about 3 days of running and files copying onto the Dell maschine, it was not available on the webgui, nor on the machine itself. After rebooting, it told me, that the zfs pool...

Pool unlock fails with geli.key
Hi,
I have recently set up a bare metal FreeNAS server, configured everything and put data on the system. The version I have used was 11.2 U2. I have created a passphrase and downloaded the geli.key file.
Since then, I have moved to a 11.3 U1 on a VM. I have loaded the config file upon finishing the installation, reworked the network interface slightly and gained access to the web interface. The pools are displayed properly, the disks show up as ada0-ada3 as they were on the bare metal...

Boot Memtest: banging head against wall
Hello--
Im trying to boot from a USB stick that I installed memtest onto. Here's what I've done several times without success:
Download pre-compiled bootable ISO
Use dd to copy ISO image to USB
Insert USB to Freenas box
Enter boot menu options; select USB device with memtest
Fail
Sorry if this is such a boneheaded question...but I can't for the life of me figure out why I can't boot memtest to run some tests!![Wink ;) ;)]()
thx

Change from plexmediaserver to plexmediaserver-plexpass
Haha, not really a question in this. Went through the process of changing the server and all seemed to go well... until nothing worked when I was done. I could see my install on the right IP and on my custom sub-domain but it wasn't responsive. After triple checking I decided to have a look at https://status.plex.tv/ and wouldn't you know, the API system went down while I was making the change. So, it isn't always something you did ![Wink ;) ;)]()

Connecting Windows through SMB - missing something
I'm a N00B at FreeNAS. I am trying to setup access to my FreeNAS Server from my Windows machines. Taking it slowly and trying to setup one access at time to make sure I don't skip anything. But 'something' has gone wrong and I can't figure it out. So many others have posted here in the forums, but the screen shots they show don't match what I see on my screen (Missing fields, or Renamed fields). I am sure I missed something simple along the way, but can't seem to see it. So I am hoping...

Hi,
my freeNAS (11.2 U6) was not responding lately, i also had this alert:

I am planning a build for my first NAS system for home use. As I read info on this site and others I waver between high quality and trying to stay in a budget. This is the current list of specs I'm considering. Would appreciate any feedback. I plan to use it mostly for backing up up my computers (PC and Mac) and a media streaming server.
