Questions about migrating a ZFS RAID

I've recently been looking at options to upgrade (completely replace) my current NAS, as it's currently more than a little bit jank and frankly kinda garbage. I have a few questions about that and about migrating my current TrueNAS scale installation or at least it's settings over....

pete_the_cat ,

Q1: No it shouldn't matter as long as you didn't import the pool using device names (sda, sdb, etc...). If you're using labels or UUIDs (the better option for portability sake). If they do happen to use device names, just export the pool and then reimport it on the same system using labels or UUIDs.

Q2: It should work just fine assuming you're not using device names for your pools

Q3: it's just as robust as FreeBSD's implementation. Once again, see the answer to Q1.

Q4: IMO virtualizing your NAS just adds more headaches and performance overhead compared to running it on bare metal.

Out of my years running TrueNAS on and off, I've always had issues with it when doing anything other than using it purely as a storage box. I tried 24.04 a few weeks ago, thinking that most of the issues I had originally when SCALE was launched would be resolved. They weren't. So I went back to Arch w/OpenZFS...again

I agree, the VM management could be easier. I don't understand why I can't have two NICs in the same subnet as long as they have different IPs.

The bigger annoyance for me was there was no way to tell what disk is attached where in the VM device listings since it only shows the boot order and not labels or paths.

pete_the_cat ,

Yeah, but I should be able to have them separate as well like I can in every other Linux distro. In TrueNAS they force you to have them in separate subnets for some reason.

They put a plunger-looking appendage on a chicken's ass and discovered that after this was done it walked more like a T-Rex does...seriously.

If I had my little way, I'd eat peaches every day.

Now that DuckDuckGo is out. Give me your search prompts and I'll answer them as best I can. That includes images (based on what I have saved on my PC). So what is it you wish to know or see?

Edit: Due to popular demand FatTony Search servers are down for the time being. but has gone open source just in time (Yes that's how it works 😡) . You may now get responses from other users. Servers will be back up some time later.

I think the best billboard I've seen is in South Florida where it has a picture of a sexy woman and it says "Your wife is hot" in big letters. When you get closer, you see it's an ad for an AC servicing/repair company.

Make sure to use the right type for the container it's in

pete_the_cat ,

Yep, Hulu and Disney already "work together" (loosely speaking), I'm not sure if Disney outright bought them, or they just merged. I used to work for Disney+ until the fuckers laid me off last year after 5 years.

Of course, his father is the one that created it.

How do I create a bzipped tar ball?

He went through the cat dimension, duh.

You just have to wait for him to come back. Cats don't listen to anyone.

I need to order some

I only had an older brother and I know I know a good amount of Backstreet Boys songs haha

Fat Tony is down!

DuckDuckGo has changed its policy to DuckDuckStop.

I laughed at that more than I should have.

Threadripper already accomplished all of this years ago. My TR2970WX has 24 cores/48 threads, 48 PCI-E lanes, and it supports ECC and non-ECC RAM. My AsRock Rack board has BMC support as well.

The Threadripper series was the perfect workstation CPU. I've had mine for a few years and it can handle anything I throw at it, it can easily transcode 2-3 4K videos while doing multiple other things.

It wasn't cheap though, it was like $650 on sale, originally like a grand or so.

"Create your own penis showing game"

That's what the tech world has come to recently, especially with monitors and smartphones.

pete_the_cat ,

Screen technologies for a lot of things has gotten to the point where your eyes literally can't tell the difference, but sure, dump money into a placebo.

pete_the_cat ,

That is the point, most people don't do research and see "ahh a bigger number, it must be better!". 1Khz refresh rate may be a niche thing now but in two years every company will be pushing something similar.

They weren't armed in Charlottesville IIRC

pete_the_cat ,

That's confused me as well. It probably did a kernel update and then triggered update-grub.

pete_the_cat ,

I think you should start with the basics of Linux instead of diving into the deep end 😉

These people have seriously lost their God damn minds.

Black olives? Yes

Green/Greek olives? Nope!

My friend would eat Milk Bones occasionally when we were kids.

Yep, iDrive is the way to go, before they raised their prices I got 50 TB for a year for $500. I moved everything back locally, now I'm just going to use them for off-site backups. You can't beat $15 for 1 TB for a year.

pete_the_cat ,

5 TB for $150 seems awfully high (didn't click the link). I'm on my first year (and did it before they doubled their first year prices) and I got 50 TB for $500.

1 TB is $15 for the first year.

pete_the_cat ,

I love how you're mixing metric and imperial in the title 😂

Unfortunately, we see more and more commercial entities using unauthorized access or misusing authorized access to collect public data in bulk, including Reddit public content, worse, these entities perceive they have no limitation on their usage of that data, and they do so with no regard for user rights or privacy, ignoring reasonable legal, safety, and user removal requests. While we will continue our efforts to block known bad actors, we need to do more to restrict access to Reddit public content at scale to trusted actors who have agreed to abide by our policies. But we also need to continue to ensure that users, mods, researchers, and other good-faith, non-commercial actors have access.”

So, pay to get access, like Google did with their $60 million deal. We're nothing but money to them.

I understand what OP means. He (?) is saying that when a woman starts to have bulging muscles, a la the bodybuilder look, it isn't attractive, because their body looks more masculine and less feminine.

I feel the same way, I love the look of a toned, athletic woman, like the typical yoga or volleyball/tennis body, but when they start having visible definition and bulging muscles it don't find it attractive.

I'm a dude as well, as to OP's question, I've also heard that some women prefer the dad bod to the Arnold look because muscles aren't soft to lay on.

pete_the_cat ,

Oh shit up...did I say that women aren't allowed to grow huge muscles and compete in bodybuilder competition?

No, I just said I don't find women with bulging muscles, like WWE or Weight Lifting for competitions.

IDK about the ice water, I've only been there a few times and it was never to get ice water lol

I have bad insomnia so going to sleep before midnight in order to wake up at 6:30 am, in order to be at school by 7:20 was not fun at all.
