Seriously lucked out!!

Hi there, happy to be joining the community.

So I'm just putting this here as a major piece of luck and might save another member hassle with drive failure.
I made 2 mistakes after reading an article recently stating you could expand storage with old drives. Sooooo I bought a 4tb enterprise drive off Fleabay 2nd hand.
That's mistake number 1
I ran the drive in my nas for a week to "run in" and perform smart tests. All good.
Then I made my 2nd mistake. I added it to my pool as a stipe (no...

Advice for best setup for disks in a 24disk system

$

Hi,
I came over a 2U Supermicro system really cheap, and it has a (passive, no expander) SAS3 backplane with 3 LSI 3008 HBAs.
Im looking to add 24 (400GB) SSDs but i'm not sure how to split the disks, seems like mirrored vdevs is a waste of space. But i don't whant to add a 24 disk raidz either.
I also have a 8GB RMS300 i was thinking of using as a slog, if that has any weight in making a decision.

Usecase is Backups and if primary storage fails use it for iscsi to my VMs at home.

Kind Regards

SLOG benchmarking and finding the best SLOG

I'd like to take a few minutes to talk about SLOG devices and what makes good ones versus bad ones. I have no doubt that this will be a controversial topic since this is not well understood by many people. In short, there's 3 things that you need for a "great" SLOG:

1. Fast throughput
2. Long lifespan with regards to 100% write workloads
3. Fast cache flushes

SLOG workloads are a bit unique. So what goes into an SLOG?

Only sync writes will actually go to an SLOG. A sync write is a...

Enable Spotlight in Samba

Hello,

it would be great if samba in TrueNAS could be compiled with Spotlight support. It seams that it is currently not enabled

Code:
root@freenas[11:58][~]: smbd -b |grep -i spot
root@freenas[11:58][~]: 


on a samba version with spotlight enabled you should get:

Code:
root@samba:~ # smbd -b | grep -i spot
   HAVE_SPOTLIGHT_BACKEND_ES
   HAVE_SPOTLIGHT_BACKEND_TRACKER
   WITH_SPOTLIGHT

Pool Setup / Recommendations

$

I am trying to setup a new server, but maybe I am missing something obvious... If I have (12) 6TB disks... That's 72TB RAW... Run in RAIDZ-2, that should end up with 60TB, minus a little for overhead, right? TrueNAS calculates out 54TB during the creation process, but when the pool creation is finished, I end up with 48TB, which is the same as what the RAIDZ-3 calculates out... But if I do a RAIDZ-3 pool, I end up with a 46TB pool. Now I am unsure about what kind of setup I should be...

Ich stelle meine HDD hier auf lesen und schreiben

Sobald ich die NAS ausschalte oder einen Neustart durchführe springt er automatisch auf "nur lesen" um.
Das passiert auch nur bei dieser einen Platte.
Gibt es da eine Möglichkeit das dauerhaft auf schreiben/lesen zu stellen (den Button "speichern" habe ich angeklickt)

Running a Minecraft Server in a Jail, unable to start it outside of the Shell.

I am pretty new to TrueNAS, and by pretty new I mean I had never used it once before yesterday. I built a NAS for a Plex Server and a Minecraft Server, and I've managed to get the Plex Server setup no problem with the plugin. I was originally using the MineOS plugin for the Server, but I found it very limiting and slow, so I tried finding a new way to do it.

I followed this video exactly to install a Server in a Jail:

I am trying to set up two interfaces on a jail. One uses a nic and the other uses another. The issue I am having is that the one nic with the default gateway works but not the other nic. I am unable to ping other devices in that subnet.

epair0b - 1.1.1.24/24
epair1b - 5.5.5.56/24 DG- 5.5.5.1

I can get to the internet on epair1b, but I cannot ping epair0b from that network.

I am also unable to ping the jails from the nas itself. NAS IP is 1.1.1.33/24

Hello everybody,

it looks like something in the configuration file cannot be sliced in or has problems starting with the settings.
Because it seems to be installed, it deletes everything after the installation has failed.

Unfortunately I didn't find anything suitable here in the forum on the topic and wanted to ask if anyone has an idea how to solve this.
