Reinstall, import config backup.

What? Truenas 13?
From Truenas 12?

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

Do you have a backup of your configuration from TN 13? Without the tunable? If yes, perform a fresh install and reimport that config.

no I have not

You can upgrade your TN 12 installation to 13, then recreate your VM. All the VMs data is still there, only the settings are lost. Just use the existing zvol as the virtual disk device and you should be fine.

That's not a configuration backup but boot environments.

But did you set that tunable while running U4.1? Then you should be able to boot back into U4 ...

U4 gives same problem

 

[Willy666]

I have the configuration file of U4 before upgrade of U4.1

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

Then perform a fresh installation of U5.3 and import that configuration file.

Then perform a fresh installation of U5.3 and import that configuration file.

so I ll upgrade truenas 12 to 13 U5.3 and than replace the configuration of 13 ?

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

No, you download an install ISO, write that to another USB drive, boot that, and perform a new installation to your existing USB drive wiping the OS and the botched config in the process. Your storage pool will not be touched by this procedure.

Then you import the saved config and your are as good as new.

Is not easier upgrade and import the configuration file?

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

Possibly. I just wanted to make sure you get a clean state.

Remove all boot environments except the 12.0 one you are running. Then perform the upgrade to 12.0-U8.1 first and then switching trains to 13.0-U5.3.

In case that fails for some reason you can still perform a fresh install.

now I have replace my old configuration but without my VM.
So now I have to recreate my vm and select existing Zvol

When I replace a Vm I select the old VM disk I have to reinstall Debian ? or it risks to delete the existing OS ?

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

No, of course not. Your installed guest OS is inside that zvol and you can just boot it. Just make sure you pick the same type of device - AHCI vs. VirtIO ...

Thanks U are a great friend. SOLVED!

Now avoiding last mistakes. Can I passthru the usb device to the VM? I have to pass all the bus? I have Truenas installed on Usb on the same bus

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

You can only pass PCIe devices which implies the whole USB controller.

Do you have another group of USB ports (back vs. front) connected to another controller, possibly? Or a free PCIe slot for an add on card?
