Hi all,
I'm new to FreeNAS, and like it enough to try to stick with it. I am looking for help with three things:
Config: Dell R610, dual quad core CPUs, w/48gb Ram, 3TB SAS all in RAID5 for 2.4Tb useable. This is just my home server and I am not a guru, just a project manager who likes to learn the stuff my IT teams work on. Base OS is ESX 5.5. FreeNAS is one of the VMs with a 4Gb OS partition and 2 data partitions: 900Gb and 400Gb- both UFS.
1) Did I screw up by choosing UFS over ZFS? I just didn't think I needed ZFS as I already have a RAID array and this is a VM.
2) Should/Can I expand the 900gb partition to 1.3tb?
3) Why can I not enable guest access to the second data partition? It seems because the "guest" account cannot map to two home directories...?
Thanks a lot!
Chris
