I am new to FreeNAS but have played around with Solaris 11 for home use about 3 years ago (and still have my notes/cheatsheet that now helps me with FreeNAS) but never did much with Solaris in the end. I am doing the same thing right now with FreeNAS before I want to setup my home FreeNAS server during the Xmas Holidays.
I have several questions about pools, encryption and am running version 9.3.
1) Is there a way to have FreeNAS mount an encrypted zpool automatically upon reboot? Right now I have to go into the GUI and type in the password every time I reboot FreeNAS.
2) How do I decrypt my zpool if needed? Reading some threats it appears to me that one has to first export the pool and then import the pool using the recovery key and the password? Is this correct as in Solaris there is a decrypt command that does that but then FreeNAS encrypts the entire disk/pool while Soloaris encrypts a given dataset instead.
3) How do I destroy a pool? I used the Shell using the "destroy" command like with Solaris. That seems to work but then the GUI seemed to get really confused upon reboot, if I remember correctly. This is probably not the current way of doing it.
4) How do I get to the system log files? Also, I setup email notification in the GUI but I am never seem to be getting any emails upon rebooting?
Thanks.
