Howdy,
I have a FreeNAS box that is running version FreeNAS-11.3-U3.2 and I went to check for updates in hopes that it will fix my memory issues that seem to be happening.
First the specs of the box
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz
32 gigs of memory
6x 8tb drives in raidz2. Available space on the zfs pool is 20.11TiB (28% used)
FreeNAS is installed on a 256gig Samsung NVME drive that is on the motherboard.
services running are
ssh
smb
smart
no other services.
The only thing this box needs to do is run Plex and store data. All was great for a week or so, then I noticed that Plex was not available when I got up in the morning. So I chalked it up to stuff happens .. rebooted and then the same thing happens the next day.
I hook up a monitor to the box and I see swap_pager_getswapspace: failed all over the console. - When I did the 11.3 FreeNAS install I told the installer to make the default 16 gig swap file.
Plex is not running DLNA - or anything weird. I would like hardware acceleration if possible, but I need to fix the eating all the memory issue on this box before I play with that function.
I would think with 32 gigs of memory my FreeNAS would allow Plex and only 3 services running to not touch the swap file. - I have a leak somewhere to track down.. But I have a update issue to fix first.
So I went to check for FreeNAS updates and this is what I see. - I do not want to go to Beta. - I have no issues logging into SSH and removing the downloaded upgrade files. Does anyone know where the downloaded updates are stored? I want to stay on 11.3 and just get 11.3 updates until 12 core final is out in production. Or how to just force the train to stay on 11.3 and forget about 12 ? I am guessing there is a place where update files are stored and somehow 12 beta got downloaded there and now my updater keeps seeing them ?
anyone help me out?
Thanks in advance
