I have had this issue for 8 months now on multiple versions of the firmware.
Basically if I restart the server for any reason, nothing cron driven works as expected (tasks, smart, scrubs). Usually in the past I always would "service cron restart" and it would bring everything back into working order. But it's getting annoying chasing this down every time. I tried the "service cron restart" workaround this morning and it isn't working. I've submitted a bug report on this issue earlier and basically got "cannot not duplicate" I was hoping on firmware updates it would go away but it's still affecting my system after 4 or 5 updates later? Anyone got any out of the box ideas that would cause cron to not work after restarts that would also not be affected by updates?
On a side note, I also have a random few jails that won't auto start on restart and I have to go into command line and square everything out. I think this might just be rough carry overs from earlier 9.1 or 9.2 stuff that has migrated forward on my system. I've been hesitant to start from scratch because I'm not familiar with how successful my custom Pydio and Plex jails will turn out afterwards. Are jails stored on the pool or on usb stick? If I do a clean restore (to hopefully fix these problems for good) will I get everything back on my jails as is if all I use is the config backup file?
