Hi community. I am new to this place and new to TrueNAS as I am reading things and practicing running my new homelab. I ran into an issue when trying to run my first replication task.
What I was doing:
I have a main pool (RAIDZ2) with internal HDDs and my several dataset in it.
I added a new pool with 3 external HDDs (3 seperate vdevs to simply extend into one big pool, no redundancy).
I am trying to replicate my main pool (~20TiB used for 60 TiB total) into my new pool (~23TiB) for the purpose of backup.
I scheduled a one-time task for replication. Both source and destination are on local system.
What I experience:
Web UI slower but still mostly usable. The "Replication Task" page will refresh repeatedly with my only scheduled task appear and disappear again and again. Other services such as Plex or VM are normal. About 5 to 10 minutes later (with a few hundred GiB of data copied), the system will hang and reboot with this type of error message
"* truenas.local had an unscheduled system reboot.
The operating system successfully came back online at Tue Nov 10 16:38:45 2020 "
What have I attempted:
I attempted to try several times; attempted to reduce the dataset I tasked to replicate to a smaller one (~3TiB) instead of the entire set; attempted setting the destination to both unencrypted destination pool and to a subset of encrypted pool (after re-creating the backup pool); attempted running only replication without using the system for anything else.
I have searched this forum and found some remotely similar issue 6 years ago, but without much traction. I searched Google finding someone having similar issues with FreeNAS 11.2 but saying it was fixed for 11.3. I have not find any exact situation like mine.
What system I have:
custom build.
Thanks,
Arthur

- Hard drives: 1 Transcend TS128GMTE110S M.2 drive and 1 PNY CS900 2.5" 120 GB SSD mirrored for boot. 8 WD white label 12TiB for main pool in RAIDZ2. For new pool intended for backup, 1 WD myBook 8TB external HDD, 1 WD element 10TB external HDD, 1 Seagate 8TB external HDD, in seperate vdevs with no redundancy.
- Hard disk controllers: 5 of 8 storage HDD in SATA to MB. 3 of 8 storage HDD and the PNY boot drive to LSI 9207-8i 6Gbs SAS PCI-E 3.0 HBA in IT mode.
