We experience issue with openfiler for storage > 2TB .. with OF need to made the system volume lower and add other..

With FreeNas there is the same ?

Example:
server with 6 HD 1TB - Raid 10
So, I have 1 virtual disk with 3 TB storage
any issue to install freenas here and setting same VD as storage disk ??

I plan to install FreeNAS 8 on vmware esxi.

I will use the share for sharing movies, music etc

I suppose I will have a SMB share so that my WDTV/Windows PC's can pick up the folders/files.

I currently have a HP n40L server with 8GB RAM. But I have windows server 2008 r2 + exchange 2010 running with 4GB assigned to it and a win 7 pro 64 bit with 2 gb assigned to it. i.e I have 2 GB left. Is this enough for freeNAS 8? If not I can reduce the RAM on the exchange server to 2GB. So I can assign 4GB RAM for freeNAS 8.

I have the standard 250GB SATA drive that came with the HP but freeNAS 8 I believe doesn't recognise it. I have since purchased a seagate 2TB which I will use it for data storage.

Later down the track I will probably purchase another 2TB. Same hard drive. My data is not important to me so I don't need to run raid if not necessary.

My question is: should I run UFS or ZFS? Also is it possible to run on a single 2TB HD now and later add an identical 2TB drive and expand the volume to 4TB?
My aim is to maximise storage while having performance.

Cheers,

I'm having this strange problem that I can't seem to find the answers to.

I'm running 8.0.4 p2 x64 with one Raidz5 of 4 x 2TB

Anyways the problem is when I'm transferring to the NAS via FTP.
I can see multiple messages appearing on the monitor Fwohci0: Device physically ejected? over and over again. it must be hundreds of entries if not thousands.

I don't know how to get rid of it and when creating these messages it seems to be putting unnecessary load on the server.

I have 4GB of DDR2 RAM on a Asus S775 WS Motherboard. 8400GS card and an intel e4600 cpu.

please help, it's starting to drive me nuts.

it first appeared when I unplugged my keyboard and haven't gone away even when I've plugged it back and rebooted. I've even tried resetting back to factory defaults and still nothing.

I started a copy and everything ran fine for about a half hour, then suddenly got an error:

ahcich0: AHCI reset: device not ready after 31000ms

This message appeared repeatedly and I could not restart the http server. I had to reboot the machine.

This is my hardware:

3 x 3T WD Caviar Green WD30 EZRX
1 x 3T Seagate ST3000DM001

These are all Sata III drives. I am running on mobo E35M1-I, FreeNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-p2-x64 (11367)


I believe the error referred to my Seagate drive, but I'm not 100%. So, I removed the Seagate drive and set up a RAIDZ with just the 3 WD drives. So far it's been a day and everything is running well.

Could there be a problem with my Seagate drive? Any way to fix it? I would like to be able to build a RAIDZ with different drives since I can't always get my hands on exactly the same drive quickly. Would be nice to go to the store and pick one up, whatever they have.

If there's a problem with Seagate, am I safe to try different drives?

(I've read that these drives are not recommended for server use because they're single user drives. However, so far they are working well for me. I don't expect significant multi-user use of my RAIDZ.) ]]> Storage matto http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7179-Problem-with-Seagate-Barracuda-drive-in-ZFS Alternatives to ASUS E35M1-I http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7178-Alternatives-to-ASUS-E35M1-I&goto=newpost Fri, 18 May 2012 00:28:53 GMT Hi--

Noob here, just 2 posts...I've seen lots of folks using this MB and I am wondering if there are any similarly configured alternatives that use the Intel NIC vs the Realtek on this unit?

Basically I'm looking for low-power ITX, 4-6 SATA3 ports, Intel NIC, with support for 8GB RAM. I'd like to pair this with 4 1 or 2TB SATA3 drives, and use a PicoPSU 160:
http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-160-...pter-Power-Kit

Also: how does one determine if the power-on HD spin-up draw will exceed the capacity of this power supply? I'd like to use a smaller Pico PSU if possible.

Lastly: I've been experimenting with the 64bit 8.2BETA3 and it seems to have strange console output problems where the console does not scroll--console updates appear on one line at the bottom of the console. I have also verified this on my other ITX unit (the Intel Atom D2500).

Thanks much--

I've explored OpenFiler separately, and I'm now looking into FreeNAS 8. I'm technical but no little about FreeNAS. I intend to use it for a variety of things, I run a small business, and I already have a dozen or so VM's setup for various things in our office (dev/test environments, build servers, software tools etc).

So I expect to use:
- NFS shares (for server data shares)
- SMB shares (for windows pc's data and backups)
- AD for user management (already setup, just hooking up the NAS/Filer too it)
- possibly iSCSI for VM's to reside on
- AFP (I have 2 mac's as well) and I dont believe OpenFiler supports this.
- The main reason for trying FreeNAS as well as it all runs at home, so I'd like to be able to use some of the multimedia features once they come back into v8 in the future

I have an old 1366pin i7 Asus based machine with 7 SATA ports I intend to use for the task (one day I might upgrade/downgrade it to an Ivy/Sandy bridge based i3 system)

My intention with was to:
- Run FreeNAS of a USB drive
- 8GB Ram already in the existing machine
- 4 * 2TB Green drives in a ZFS Array (sorry I might not have the terminology quite right here).
- 1 * 1TB or 2TB ZFS mirrored drives for iSCSI area or VM machine backup
- 2 Nic's aggregated for iSCSI access
- 1 Nic for client PC access to SMB/NFS/AFP shares

Some questions I have come up with though:
- Does that hardware sound reasonable?
- I dont know a lot about ZFS, so I was looking for advice on suggested arrau setup there.
- Would I be better with one ZFS array of 6 2TB disks, and then use pools to segregate out the data and provide snapshots etc from there?
- Do you think performance will be reasonable using that setup?
- I've had a little trouble with AD setup already with users not apearing yet (although commands like wbinfo -p and -t seem to suggest it is working) Any suggested links there?
- Some concerns around weather ZFS is ready yet, it seems as though now it is with v8 of FreeNAS (with the updates from FreeBSD underneath)
- I've read that SMB/CIFS performance isn't great on FreeBSD, is that a significant issue? or is it a small difference to linux. ]]> FreeNAS 4 N00bs brianmills http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7177-New-Setup-ZFS-and-suggestions Upgrade von FreeNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-p1-x64 (11059) auf p2 http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7176-Upgrade-von-FreeNAS-8-0-4-RELEASE-p1-x64-(11059)-auf-p2&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 20:00:26 GMT Hallo zusammen!

Kann mir hier einer sagen was ich falsch mache?


Es hat mir keine Ruhe gelassen, sodaß ich mir die iso (mit 8.0.4 p2) gebrannt habe und eine frische CF Karte von der CD-ROM aus installiert habe. Nach dem Neustart mußte ich feststellen das mein Einstellungen und mein ZFS Pool noch da waren. Ich dachte die Einstellungen werden nicht auf den Daten HDDs gespeichert!? Wie auch immer läuft es jetzt. Bei der ganzen Aktion habe ich allerdings einen CF-SATA Adapter geschrottet. Ich weiß schon warum ich mir drei Stück und 2 CF-Karten bestellt habe. Also für alle die mit solchen Adaptern rumbasteln, seit vorsichtig mit den Anschlüssen, mal etwas forsch die SATA-Stecker abgezogen und schon hat man zwei Teile! ]]> German - Deutsch skyfreak http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7176-Upgrade-von-FreeNAS-8-0-4-RELEASE-p1-x64-(11059)-auf-p2 SSD TRIM support http://forums.freenas.org/showthread.php?7175-SSD-TRIM-support&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 15:40:51 GMT Hello

Can i load a few of my older servers with freenas8, cluster them togehter to get a larger singel storage area, and then with this use is as storgae for vm, or maybe if not making it one sotage, utilize it to use other server as raid for the storage?... a freenas raid if you will between diffrent servers?..

The two sites are connected over VPN and there's a freenas on each site.

When I attempt a PXE boot using the remote FreeNAS TFTP server I've noticed that the client receives a double session of the file (and both fail).. I think this is a block size problem like lack blocksize negotiation between server and client or just blocksize too large for the VPN's MTU.
In Freenas 7 there was a field where to specify the block size. Now in freenad 8.2.0 B3 how can I tweak this?

Is there any way to set up Minidlna to automatically update the media database when a new file is added, without having to rebuild the entire database from scratch? Based on some instructions that I found for minidlna (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/...na.conf.5.html), I tried adding "inotify = yes", but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Minidlna is otherwise working very well, and is streaming movies to my Xbox 360.

I am using the x64 version of FreeNAS 8.2 (beta3).

I am trying to setup FreeNAS on an old laptop that I had. I have installed FreeNAS-8.0.4-RELEASE-p2-x86 (11367) on a USB drive and have the laptop set to autoboot to the USB drive. That worked great!

I have also been able to set up a new volume for a USB drive that I attached to the laptop. Works great!

The problem I am having is that I would like to import the NTFS hard drive from the laptop as a volume. However, each time I attempt to do so from the WebUI I get the following error: "An error occurred while labeling the disk."

If I attempt to mount the drive from the shell using the mount, mount_ntfs or mount_ntfs-kern command then I get the error "No such file or directory".

I am not really sure where to go from here. Any and all help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!

However, when trying to boot off of the CD I am receiving the message "Can't load 'kernel'". Does this mean my hardware is simply not supported?

The motherboard is an ASRock H61M/U3S3 with 8gb of RAM and four 2-Terabyte Seagate hard drives.

I am trying to replace a failing FreeNAS appliance and I am pretty desperate to get this working, can anyone point me in the right direction?
