Hello,
So I will be upgrading our company's FreeNAS firmware from 8.3.1 to 9.3 for various reasons. I just want to make sure that I will not run into any issues unlocking the ZFS volume that stores all of our backups.
I have tested this with a virtual machine with FreeNAS installed on it, and it worked just fine.
My only issue is that when I uploaded the config from our actual FreeNAS server, then tried to unlock our ZFS volume, it asked for a key. We have only had to use a passphrase to unlock this volume previously, and it is not working.
When I upgrade our actual FreeNAS from 8.3.1 to 9.3, will I have to provide a key along with the passphrase? If so, where can I find this key, because when I downloaded the key from the GUI and uploaded it to the test machine along with the passphrase, that did not work either.
Thanks
