I've been running an esxi server and freenas box over the summer, other then the iscsi seeming to run extremely slow I haven't had any issues.
I started looking into the slowness and in the process decided to try and run the update from 8.0.3 release x64 to the latest.
I turned off the iscsi process and tried to run the updater, the update didn't happen. Oddly it didn't see any drive to store the temp files to so I cancelled the update and turned the iscsi back on.
last night I noticed that a webservice that is running on the VM I have on the esxi wasn't accepting connections. This morning I log into the esxi server to find the VM is down. Eventually I realized that the entire VM folder and its files is missing from the freenas scsi container.
Is it possible that recycing the iscsi service killed the data? What else would I have had to do to have the iscsi container delete its data?
The freenas is seeing the drives as 1 logical drive raided via motherboard controller.
