SOLVED Huge packet loss on one of my 5 jails.

[ToViewImagesReally?]

I'm getting 50% packet loss when pinging my Plex Jail. This causes Plex to seem VERY lethargic and slow when browsing items. I also have a IFTTT set up to call it every 5 minutes to make sure it's alive so as you can imagine I've been getting flooded with emails.

Here is the output of a ping test.

Ping statistics for 192.168.1.110:
Packets: Sent = 254, Received = 125, Lost = 129 (50% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 1ms, Average = 0ms

Some background on my setup I'm using the FreeNAS Mini Mobo / SoC with a LACP set up on the two network interfaces.

I had no issues before I made the switch to Freenas 10. I thought the issue was related to that. But with the recent announcement I've switched back to 9.10 and I'm continuing to have the network issue.

Any suggestions?

Are you using VIMAGE? If you are, try disabling it and restart the jail.

That worked! I've never payed to much attention to that check box before.

Awesome!

It's a very weird thing.

Having trouble with it? Disable it and stuff will magically work.
Having trouble without it? Enable it and stuff will magically work.

Gotta love VIMAGE :D

The author of VIMAGE must've been a nagware programmer in a previous job, and old habits die hard...

I'm still waiting for the day that vimage causes me problems so I can dig in and actually see why.
