    Backup/Restore for iscsi volumes

    I've started using iscsi volumes for kubernetes storage, and it seems to be working fine. I have volumes automatically created under Data/k8s/scsi/v for each PV.

    As a backup strategy I have periodic snapshots of every volume set up and I am also replicating the entire k8s dataset to a different pool.

    I've done this kind of thing for other "normal" filesystem datasets and restoring from snapshots or replications usually just entails copying files. However I'm new to iscsi and "volume" datasets, so if something went wrong with one of my iscsi volume datasets, and I have snapshots and/or replicated them, how do I go about restoring them?

    I'm not sure if I'm even asking the right question :) Is the "right" thing to do here to do application-level backups, ie. run sidecars for my k8s workloads that back up the files inside the volumes rather than rely on backups at the TrueNAS level?

    Picture of the setup for reference:

    (Electric Eel) setting postgresdb data directory to anything except ix-apps dir causes Nextcloud install to fail.

    I'm pretty new to this so it's probably a permissions thing, How can I set up my datasets on this (new) server to allow nextcloud to install without crapping itself?

    The app lifecycle logs arent too helpful - they just say postgres is unhealthy and brings down the container.

    Sharing NFS share that belongs to root

    Hi, I have Immich installed as an app on TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.4.2. I'm trying to get the Immich folder to share via NFS to my client so that I can rsync it across for back up purposes. While I seem to not be getting any problems mounting the dataset on the client (no showing any errors), the folder is showing empty. The Immich dataset belongs to root on Truenas and permissions are set as u(rwx), g(r-x), o(r-x). I thought that because "other" have read permission of the dataset, I should be able to at least read the contents of the dataset folder. This is all I need for backup purposes. Any thought? Clearly I can't start messing around with permissions or changing user of the Immich dataset or I risk Immich not working anymore.

    I'm trying to get my head around this. If I have a media folder of videos that I mount via NFS so that I can access from my laptop, my understanding is that I need to disable "Configuring Host Path Validation" if I then have an app like Jellyfin reading that folder for serving videos to my family. It this correct or am I misunderstanding?

    The alternative is that I would need two difference datasets created, one for the NFS share and one for Jellyfin but this defeats the purpose, plus is an incredible waste of space. Please tell me I have it all wrong ...

    ZFS Relication Exclude Directories

    Hello all,

    I currently have my primary NAS running TrueNAS Scale, and I am adding a second as an off-site backup of my critical data which will also run TrueNAS Scale. I have three datastores at the moment, nextcloud, backups, and media. I want to replicate the entirety of nextcloud and backups, but for media I only want to backup my irreplaceable media. This would be personal photos and videos, but not my collection of Linux isos.

    Is it possible to have a ZFS Replication task that excludes certain directories? If not, how would you recommend I approach this?

    Thanks!

    ipv6 support for apps

    My ISP uses cgnat for ips. Hence, I was unable to connect to my apps from external network. I came to know about ipv6 not being affected by this issue. So, I tried using ipv6 but I was only able to access the ui but no apps. There are open issues on official forum but it is not known when they will be resolved. Can someone suggest another way to approach this problem?

    Help: TrueNAS upgrade, Seagate Exos "shudder" sounds.

    I just finished the process of adding 8 new Seagate Exos 20TB drives to my TrueNAS core system. This question has been asked a lot and it's known seagate drives are loader then most durring operation. Though i could not find anything related to a consistent "shudder" through all my new Exos drives. I have attached a audio clip in the link below. Have any of you come across this specific sound before.

    The drives are in a Fractal Design 7 XL case with rubber bumpers in all trays. The case hold 9 WD Red's 12TB, and 8 Segate Exos 20TB. All 17 drives are connected to a SAS 9305-24i in IT mode. Running TrueNAS Core 13.0-U5.3

    Truenas failover server

    Hi, I have two Dell T110 ii. One, with more ram and slightly faster CPU acts as main server. I have it running as NFS server, one VM with a couple of services and two apps (nextcloud and immich). Happy with the setup but worried about hardware of main server failing given age. So I have replication set up (pulls from slave to main). The dataset structure is the same. Is it a matter of installing the same apps and VM on slave, load the config of main onto slave and then just leave it to replication to keep the two machines cloned? I switch on slave only on Sundays to allow replication activity. It is some form of backup I guess, although not perfect.

    Question about ZFS

    Hey guys! I got my home lab setup going nicely now. One mirror vdev ZFS for my Nextcloud, granting very good performance! Small question though: I got two extra drives now and was thinking if it is worth it adding it already as extra mirror vdev. My question is the following:

    Will resilvering of a single disk be quicker if I have my data striped over two mirror vdev than if all my data is in a single mirror vdev?

    In other words, I was wondering in that sense if it is safer to replace a disk due to shorter resilver?

    Reinstall without data loss

    Hi, I can't connect to my TrueNAS scale server anymore, not even through the webGUI due to me being stupid. It seems like I need to do a full reinstall and I'm very paranoid about losing data. What do I need to do so I can reinstall truenas without using data? Do I need to export my pools? I don't want to save my config, since it seems to be totally broken. Thanks in advance.

    SMB not working in Scale 23.10 (following Core migration)

    Hey all, not a lot of activity here yet, but hopefully someone can offer some advice!

    I'm having major regrets following migration from Core to Scale. The migration via update file went smoothly, but immediately apparent on starting up Scale, all of my SMB shares were broken. Both Linux and Windows clients are unable to connect.

    I have since tried creating new users/groups (I noticed that my normal user and group with id's 1000 had been changed to 1001 in Scale), stripping ACL's and recreating, and deleting the shares and recreating. Failure to connect on each attempt.

    Is there something I'm missing relating to the migration that prevents SMB from working? I'm not well versed in the inner working, or shell command available for troubleshooting, so most of this has been attempted through the GUI.

    Also, I realise I have shot myself in the foot. Like an idiot, I saw the feature flag update message when Scale first started. I clicked through and upgraded without even thinking. I realis

    Scale 22.12.4.2 Release | Hotpatch for Core to Scale Migration

    Key Highlight:

    This is a hotpatch to fix an issue that prevents some TrueNAS CORE systems from migrating to SCALE 22.12.4.1:

    • NAS-124623 - error with home directory handling on migration from TrueNAS CORE.

    Note under 22.12.4.2:

    If you encountered this issue when attempting to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1, run the command mkdir /home in the TrueNAS CORE web interface shell and re-apply the upgrade.

    Otherwise, users that intend to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12 (Bluefin) can directly migrate to the 22.12.4.2 hotfix release to avoid this issue.

    What’s the state of TrueNAS CORE?

    Should I bother to keep using it or shall I just bite the pill and move to SCALE? I have 3 jails and I’m seriously considering my TrueNAS instance as a storage only, and resort to VM and containers on a dedicated machine to use applications.

    Scale 22.12.4.1 Release | Small Hotpatch & Security Update

    Key Highlights:

    This is a small hotpatch designed to address a reported bug from the 22.12.4 release and updates Samba to the v4.17.12 security update:

    EDIT UPDATE:

    Known Issue: An issue was found after 22.12.4.1 was released that disrupts migrations from CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1 due to how the /home directory is handled during the update process (NAS-124623). If you encountered this issue when attempting to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1, run the command mkdir /home in the TrueNAS CORE web interface shell and re-apply the upgrade.

    Otherwise, users that intend to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12 (Bluefin) can directly migrate to the 22.12.4.2 hotfix release to avoid this issue.

    Upgrading storage

    Hi, happy to see a truenas community on lemmy to!

    I was wondering, I know you need to double the drives when upgrading storage in zfs, but do that include cash and log drive? So if I have two ssd cash drives and on log so I need 4 cash and 2 log?
