I've been running FreeNAS (8.0.3) on several boxes for several years (FreeNAS iSCSI targets for several ESXi hosts), and all has been working wonderfully. Over the weekend we had a power outage and 2 out of 3 boxes came back, however there's something wrong with the 3rd and I'm having a hard time diagnosing it. Maybe the VMFS filesystem got corrupted, or something with the the iSCSI target was lost... or... ?
ESXi shows the iSCSI datastore as inactive. If I try to add it as a new datastore in ESXi, the target is visible, however while adding it says that the the target is empty - "volume is empty, VMware will format the drive, all data will be lost..." type messages (I don't actually complete this, I hope my data is still in tact somewhere).
Any ideas on specifically what the problem could be or how I can pinpoint this more?
