Hello,
I have a new system build that I am trying to get freenas to run on but am having an issue as outlined below.
Freenas installs fine, I can configure almost any setting without issue. However, the moment I try to work with storage systems, I have issues.
For example, sometimes I can add a ZFS pool, it appeared to work, then when I start writing data, using CIFS shares, it works for a bit then the system hangs. It then takes three reboots before the system will even load.
When creating a ZFS pool, sometimes it hangs during creation, see the steps I follow below.
Step by Step
1. Log into web interface
2. Select “Storage” from the top list.
3. Click “ZFS Volume Manager”
4. I enter in the “Volume Name” NO Encryption, select all my drives, choose Raidz and then click “Add Volume” I then get the “ZFS Volume Manager” screen and that’s were we stop. On the console I see the following messages “GEOM_ELI: Encryption: AES-XTS 215 Crypto: Hardware”. That message appears 6 times and the system is done, it just hangs. Console is frozen, gui is frozen.
Upon reboot, sometimes the volume is there, sometimes not?
Removing the volume produces the same inconstant results as adding the volumes.
System Config
AMD FX 4130 Quad Core Processor
8GB RAM
Asus M5A97 R2.0 Motherboard (AMD SB950) Chipset.
6x2TB Seagate 7.2000RPM Barracuda’s
ACHI Enabled
HD Audio Disabled in BIOS (That is the only setting changed)
Latest BIOS version applied
I have tried Freenas 9.1.1 and 9.2.0BETA
The system also appears to reboot at times, I am swapping the power supply but I am wondering if anyone else has had any other issues or has any ideas as to what might be the issue?
