💓 EV∆ ∆ΠΠ∆ 💓Sometimes I think, maybe I should use TrueNAS, and then I remembered that their C•Suite decided to give the 🖕🏻 to FreeBSD... the very same operating system and community of developers and engineers who enabled their company to exist from the start, to scale to the level which brought them success and growth and accolades from the OSS and enterprise storage communities alike. So no, I don't use TrueNAS. Whatever many reasons they and their indolent fanboys push for moving to Linux, and I have heard them all, it's irrelevant. They didn't just bite the hand that feeds, they went straight over to the clown-show makeup meme table and slathered it on; trying so hard to convince everyone including themselves that this betrayal was the Good and Ethical thing to do. Luckily there are alternatives, and those will get my time, engineering efforts, and fiscal support. One thing to remember: alienated users do not recommend those formerly loved products to their employers, they do not "spread the love" via organic marketing, and perhaps sometimes they dissuade when they would formerly embrace.<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freebsd</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#truenas</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/oss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oss</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/enterprisearchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#enterprisearchitecture</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/storage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#storage</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ixsystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ixsystems</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/mistakes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mistakes</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/corporategreed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#corporategreed</a>

JorgeHmm, the latest beta of <a href="https://pug.ninja/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> Scale has docker support, but not docker compose and that's a huge oversight. Unless I'm missing where to find it?

DawidLet's say that I'm running TrueNAS at home for my data, and my brother is running TrueNAS at his home for his data.Is it possible that my system will work as offsite backup for him, and his will work for me, but in a way that we wouldn't have access to each other files? Let's ignore the connection part for now.I'm pretty sure I watched an LTT video in the past when they mentioned something like this, but there's no chance I will find it again.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/selfhosted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosted</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#truenas</a>

Kellic Tiger :verified_paw:Looping back to <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/Plex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plex</a> on <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> and the issues I had when I was testing things with no internet connection. The docker container would hang at deploying, add an internet connection and boom it works. If anyone runs across this in the future. I figured it out. More common sense then scrubbing logs.I was using the plexpass image. Well obviously it needs to validate that you have a plexpass on startup. (I have a lifetime one going back to 2015 I think.) No internet = no way to validate it so it just hangs on startup. No errors in the logs for docker or plex which is weird.I simply switched it over to the Plex Official Image and things started working.

Kellic Tiger :verified_paw:Well then. I'm going to have to really look at all the freaking tools that I have and use. This evening I went totally on battery power for the house. But also no internet. The amount of s*** that completely breaks with no internet was far more than I expected. <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/Smartthings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Smartthings</a> Dead. <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/Emporia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emporia</a> Dead. What is the most disconcerting is the fact that my <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/Plex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plex</a> container in my <a href="https://tiggi.es/tags/Truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Truenas</a> scale system refuses to come up without an internet connection. It just hangs at deploying. There's a red herring in the container logs about missing path. All I know is when I give it an internet connection and restart the container it works. Plenty of examples of this on the internet with ass hats saying just add an internet connection. Yeah because internet can never go down, ever. 🤬

Crow_Crow 💻 :dragncoolmlem:Finally got around to swapping a failed disk on my NAS. Thankfully I had a hot spare in the pool because it took me a week to even find out about the failure :dragnshock: Man resilvers take a long time. <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#truenas</a>

Queen Calyo DelphiWell, I'm poking my snooter into this TrueNAS Scale install, aaaaaaaaand I can't get an IP address.Connected by wire to a wifi router set up as a bridge.Bridge is configured correctly because I can access the admin interface from my desktop PC, both of which connect wireless to housemate's router.But it's not getting an IPv4 from the housemate's router+gateway.I am softlocked from accessing the web UI without an IP address. :/<a href="https://rubber.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://rubber.social/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a>

Queen Calyo DelphiUpdate to this: The TrueNAS Scale installer's shell mode doesn't have less, doesn't have nano, but it DOES have vi.And with the help of this comment: <a href="https://gist.github.com/gangefors/2029e26501601a99c501599f5b100aa6?permalink_comment_id=5178809#gistcomment-5178809" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://gist.github.com/gangefors/2029e26501601a99c501599f5b100aa6?permalink_comment_id=5178809#gistcomment-5178809</a>I am now in and have found the function format_disk() in the python script and am perusing the online manpage about sgdisk to figure out if and then how I can modify this bad baby to implement the partition scheme I want. >:3 <a href="https://linux.die.net/man/8/sgdisk" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://linux.die.net/man/8/sgdisk</a><a href="https://rubber.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://rubber.social/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a>

Queen Calyo DelphiOkay what the fuck, the TrueNAS Scale installer doesn't even give me the option to set up a custom disk partitioning through gparted???It just??? Installs TrueNAS Scale on the entire disk???What the fuck???This is literally a dozen or so steps backwards from the Debian installer, WHICH TRUENAS SCALE IS BASED ON.I even had a partitioning scheme in mind for the main boot drive that would reserve a separate partition for docker/podman containers. >:(<a href="https://rubber.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://rubber.social/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a>

Doppel DraconiusRIP to this 8 Terabyte Drive.Server assembled on Dec. 2022, then it suffered two bad sectors and removed by my server's array in Jan 2025.The TrueNAS RAID-Z2 config worked perfectly, no loss of data and replacement drive resilvered OK.WD's warranty was also great. Replacement arrived quick!<a href="https://dragonchat.org/tags/RAID" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RAID</a> <a href="https://dragonchat.org/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> <a href="https://dragonchat.org/tags/ZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ZFS</a> <a href="https://dragonchat.org/tags/Server" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Server</a>

Liam<a href="https://mastodon.social/@triumphant_fool" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@triumphant_fool</a> Get a NAS with <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Docker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Docker</a> support (like <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a>.

Josh 🌯You served well HDD 🫡. For a while now, I've been thinking that going with RAID-Z2 was a waste of space. But while I'm waiting for the warranty replacement with a degraded pool, I couldn't be happier with my choice.<a href="https://sideofburritos.social/tags/storage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#storage</a> <a href="https://sideofburritos.social/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#truenas</a> <a href="https://sideofburritos.social/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosting</a>

Micah Ilbery :neofox_cofe:It's taken me over two days but I finally redid my TrueNAS setup and docker compose stacks. Redid my pools and datasets as well as adding some nvme cache drives. Then I moved all the apps into dockge for better management. I like that TrueNAS is docker based now but the built in "custom app" management leaves a bit to be desired.I'm not outta the woods yet though. I haven't actually finished spinning them all up to make sure it all works :neofox_nervous:<a href="https://ilbery.family/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> <a href="https://ilbery.family/tags/Docker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Docker</a> <a href="https://ilbery.family/tags/SelfHosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SelfHosting</a>
