My freenas 7 worked reasonably well. When I did a fresh install of freenas 8 it became impossible to copy or move files from one ZFS volume to another.
E.g.,
/tank/
/tank/content/
/tank/archive/
/tank/video/
I can copy/move a 400 Mb file from any of the above volumes to either of my Macs, or to any of my Windows machines. I can also copy / move the file back to any of the above volumes. In other words the network and other factors seem to be working flawlessly. The speed is 85% or so of the 1 Gb LAN.
The problem starts if I try to use Finder (or Explorer in Win) to drag a file from, say, /tank/video/ to /tank/archive/. This worked fine under freenas 7. Under freenas 8 it does the following:
- dialog appears in both OSX and Win: preparing to move file
- dialog stays there for a *long* time
- eventually it usually times out
- sometimes the file is partially copied
- while this is happening the whole freenas server seems to grind to a halt -- music playing from iTunes stops, etc. etc. This does *not* happen when copying to/from Mac desktop
- permissions not the issue -- can copy exact same file from /tank/video to mac desktop, then from mac desktop to /tank/archive
Any help would be much appreciated!
