Hello all. I am testing freenas 8. it is installed in a VMware workstation 9 vm. with 4 vmdk's on for the OS and 3 for a volume. I have added the volume as a ZFS and setup an Iscsi target with a file extent. I used the iscsi initiator in windows to create a drive and formatted in win 7. I copied a video file to the drive. I start to play the video file and then remove a VMDK from the server. when this happens the freenas server hangs, well becomes non responsive. the web interface is not accessable and while i can type in the console nothing of use occurrs. I force a reboot of the freenas vm and it comes up ok with a report that a drive is missing and it will function normally. I can shutdown the system add back the drive boot up and it rebuilds the ZFS volume
e
Is this what happens becuase freenas is in a VM? or does this happen on the native hardware? I would think a single drive failure would not cause it to hang.
does anyone have any advise?
thanks
