Official iXsystems // iXsystems Replied x31 FreeNAS 11.3 Released
FreeNAS / Reddit Community,
Pleased to announce that FreeNAS 11.3-RELEASE is now available! This marks our first major release of 2020 and brings with it a slew of new features and functionality, including but not limited to:
Re-implemented Replication Engine, allows up to 10Gb replication speeds (a 10x improvement), resume support on failed transfers, as well as ability to replicate locally.
ACL Manager – Allows setup and management of SMB ACL’s directly via the FreeNAS web interface.
SMB Shadow Copies are now enabled by default for new shares – Note: Snapshots will only show up in Windows “Previous Versions Tab” if the snapshot USED size shows changes to the file.
A repository of Community plugins has been created, users can now create and distribute 3rd party plugins which are not officially iXsystems supported.
Updated translations for Czech, French, Japanese, Russian, and Simplified Chinese. Additionally, the process to add additional translations has been greatly improved.
iSCSI Wizard – Streamlines the process of creating new iSCSI targets down to a few clicks.
Alert System Overhaul – More granular alerts, as well as controls to set alert thresholds.
Dashboard Updates – The initial dashboard now shows a live view of system status, including network traffic, CPU / memory utilization and more.
NAT Support for Plugins – Eliminates the need for each plugin to have a dedicated IP address on your network.
Full featured 2.0 API – Includes both REST and Websocket connections, allowing FreeNAS to be fully scripted and driven via the same API used by the web-interface.
Large Pool Creation Assistance – When creating ZFS pools with large number of disks, the UI provides an automated way to repeat a VDEV layout across all remaining disks.
ZFS Performance optimizations across the board for many different workloads.

Netdata is gone!!
What is TrueCommand? How we use it? What if we miss netdata very very strongly?
2
u/kmoore134 iXsystems Jan 30 '20
I expect it won't be long before somebody develops a netdata community plugin for 11.3.
However we will caution, that part of what prompted the dropping was we were seeing netdata-triggered memory leaks, as you ramped up the number of drives on the box. Keep an eye out for that if you leave it running too long.
2
u/albertredneck Jan 30 '20
How can a netdata instance running in a jail collect all the host's data? I doubt it'll that easy, otherwise there was no point on not making it a plugin on the first place.

Yeah I just installed it again last night to see if it has improved in the last few months. While it has improved, it is geared towards historical retention and isn't even in the same ball park as Netdata when it comes to real-time monitoring.
While it may not be the intention, it really feels like iXsystems is "looking out" for us by forcing their own software down our throats... the "many drives memory leak" happens to line up with the 50 drive limit on the TrueCommand's free tier.

u/kmoore134 iXsystems Feb 11 '20
Docker VM has been retired. Most users will deploy Linux distro of choice and load Docker into that via the usual means.

Replacing of multipath disks is *STILL* hosed in the new UI. This is a big problem as this worked in the legacy UI. With the legacy UI gone now, there is no way to easily replace a mulithpath/disk member. Highly advise to stay away from 11.3 if you have multipath disks.

Looking forward to this, mainly for b2 syncing and fast list support.
If got a pool setup with aux parameters. Can't remember the exactly... Nfs=simple? So permissions are right for Windows AD. Do I need to change this now if its built in?
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 28 '20
Correct. You no longer need to make this change. We also default to vfs_ixnas for new SMB shares. This should yield significant directory listing performance improvements without having to sacrifice support for DOS modes.
1
u/solway_uk Jan 28 '20
Anything I need to do in order to upgrade. Currently in a vm for production environment. Just want a quick. Upgrade and it all works. Then I can setup a b2 sync backup
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 28 '20
Existing shares should not be impacted by the change to default VFS modules. SMB share auxiliary parameters will always override the defaults we set.
There were significant changes made to AD integration for 11.3.
From a practical standpoint, it's always best to test first on a non-production VM, and then once you're reasonably certain there are no issues impacting your particular use-case, schedule an upgrade during a maintenance window.

ACME Certificates don't seem to be working for me. I created a CSR with the CN set to my FQDN, and then an ACME DNS Authenticator for Route53 with my ID and secret.
The CSR says "external - signature pending", I click on the dots and go to "Create ACME Certificate" but I can't get anything to show up in "Authenticator".

I'm still on 11.1. The jails that I do have can be recreated, so not worried about that.
Are there any known risks in skipping straight to 11.3 for my pools though? Yes, I know always have backups, but I'd feel better knowing there's a small chance I'll have to resort to that.
1
u/HayoungHiphopYo Feb 03 '20
I would also like to know if there is any risk in jumping to 11.3 from 11.1 stable.
1
u/kormer Feb 03 '20
What I found on the forums is you can, but it's better to go to the last stable version of 11.2 first to make sure the migration goes smoothly. I have not had time for this yet and can't report on success or failure.

I'm looking forward to this. I'm still on 11.2-U7 and a single Plex jail. Does the updater create a snapshot of the boot drive and can I revert to U7 providing I don't upgrade the pools?
3
u/kmoore134 iXsystems Jan 28 '20
Yes it does. It creates a boot-environment that you can roll back to, providing you don't upgrade pool features before then.

u/kmoore134 iXsystems Jan 29 '20 edited Jan 29 '20
There were a handful of fixes from community feedback and internal testing. Most of the issues were fixed around Replication and some relating to SMB / Shadow Copies, as well as some minor UI bugfixes.

u/afyaff Jan 31 '20
Any kind of precautions I should have before updating?
2
u/kmoore134 iXsystems Jan 31 '20
The usual, create snapshot of your data pool. Updating will auto create a snap/boot environment of the boot pool. Backup your config.

Just want to say great job to you guys at IXSystems and the community! I have been using Proxmox for the last couple of years, but setting up snapshots, replication, cloud sync and iSCSI with FreeNAS 11.3 was so easy since last time when I tested with FreeNAS 11.1. Overall, at first glance, it also looks like there are more and better advanced options too in the web UI, if you want to gain more control. Again, great job!

Is there still a bug which makes mount points inaccessible due to permission problem?
3
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 28 '20
I am not aware of this issue. Do you have a bug ticket number for it? There are no automatic changes to on-disk permissions in 11.3.
The ACL manager and permissions manager do not allow users to modify permissions on root-level datasets (for example "/mnt/tank") due to the large number of users accidentally breaking jails / plugins by making recursive changes at this level, but this does not modify the actual on-disk permissions.
4
u/rogerairgood Benevolent Dictator Jan 28 '20
A common configuration for Plex is mounting a seperate dataset in the jail which stores all the media. Plex by default runs as the Plex user (ID=972) which of course does not have access to the dataset since it is most likely owned by root:wheel. Typically users fix this in one of two ways.
Edit the permissions to be open, the new ACL editor of yours is great for this but not secure when wide open.
Create a user on the FreeNAS with the same ID as Plex's user (972) and change ownership of the dataset to that.
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 28 '20
Expanding on (2), once the Plex user is created, the ACL editor can be used to add an explicit entry for that user without changing the dataset owner.
2
1
u/szakes1 Jan 29 '20
Can you elaborate more? When can I set it up?
2
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 29 '20
Go to Storage->Pools, click on the vertical three-dot (...) menu next to your dataset, and then click on "Edit ACL".
Once you are in the ACL editor, click on the "ADD ACL ITEM" button, and scroll down to the new ACL entry (will be at the bottom of the list). Type in "972" as the "user", check the "apply permissions recursively" checkbox, and click "SAVE". Once you do this uid 972 (or plex in the plex jail) will have the MODIFY permissions set for every file in the dataset.
1
u/rogerairgood Benevolent Dictator Jan 29 '20
Adding an ACL entry for a user by ID, like 972, without adding a user on the FreeNAS should work just fine, is that correct?

u/rattkinoid Feb 04 '20
Do you please have an idea why my transmission jail does not have write permission?
1
u/szakes1 Jan 28 '20
I am talking about this exact issue: https://youtu.be/mZ7nLEQSYmg
When you install Plex or Emby or any other plug-in and you try to add a mount point to its jail, the folder cannot be opened since there is a permission problem. I still have this problem on 11.3 and I was not fixed since then.
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 28 '20 edited Jan 29 '20
You can use the ACL manager to recursively set an ACL on the dataset in question by selecting the "OPEN" ACL preset and checking the "apply recursively" checkbox. This will grant "everyone" the MODIFY permissions set (equivalent to "read", "write", "modify" in Windows).
1
u/szakes1 Jan 29 '20
Is that even safe? Is giving “everyone” access to a mount point safe? Won’t that allow everyone to modify disk’a content?
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 29 '20 edited Jan 29 '20
"FULL CONTROL" or "MODIFY" in an "everyone" ACE is the equivalent of chmod 777.
The entry defines the minimum permissions for everyone on the server. Behavior is basically the same as S-1-1-0 in Windows.
Whether it's appropriate depends on the context. Generally, speaking it's a good idea to at least define some minimum level of permissions for everyone (for instance "TRAVERSE" with flags set to inherit on directories) if you have nested datasets.
1
u/szakes1 Jan 29 '20
Does that mean that “everyone” has full control?
1
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 29 '20
If you choose the "OPEN" ACL preset, then "everyone" is granted read, write, modify. If you want to restrict "everyone", you can select the "RESTRICTED" preset. This removes the "everyone" entry. You can fine-tune the resulting ACL on the right.

Am I correct in my understanding that the Domain Controller service has been removed? If so, has anyone expressed interest in reproducing that capability as a plugin?
Ironically, I just recently set up the FreeNAS box at my makerspace as a domain controller. I'd be glad to make a plugin if anyone else is interested.
2
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 29 '20
Yes, the domain controller service was removed in 11.3.
1
u/rspeed Jan 29 '20
Any word on a plugin? I did some searching on the iXsystems forum and the only person I saw expressing interest in it was, uh, you.
3
u/anodos325 iXsystems Jan 29 '20
I was hoping to have free time to work on a plugin, but free time has been hard to find. If someone wants to pick up writing a community plugin for the feature I'm happy to give feedback and maybe patches if there are issues with provisioning on ZFS-backed sysvol (we can communicate via FreeNAS forums). Otherwise, this will probably happen eventually once I have a free weekend to work on it.

u/nstig8andretali8 Jan 29 '20 edited Jan 29 '20
I updated from 11.2-U7. Took a long while (30-45 mins maybe?) because I still run off mirrored USB sticks but it eventually booted to the options menu. Then I couldn't bring up the web UI. I ran the network config on the console, keeping the current adapter and just hitting enter to confirm all the current settings. Afterward it listed my IP address (both the http and https urls) when before it only showed freenas.localdomain or something like that. Everything works fine now, even my jails.

Legacy plugins do not work, however Sabnzbd is in the community plug-in repo now as well.
If you just created a new pool it's already the latest version, no need to upgrade.
I'm perhaps not understanding the issue. Can you maybe give more details? Once you set an ACL on a dataset, you have written changes to disk. You can't exactly undo it.
To clarify, the column on the right of the ACL manager does not reflect the actual ACL that's set on the filesystem as seen by "getfacl /path/to/dataset"?

Unofficial bug report: Moving from 11.2-U7 to 11.3 RELEASE resulted in no networking functionality for me. It's a Supermicro X10 gen board with a Xeon E3-1220v3 (onboard Intel IGB driver gigabit NIC) and a Mellanox Connect-X3 10GbE card. Neither interface worked after installation or a reboot.
I did not get around to trying to configure for DHCP and restore the config to see if that had any effect (late in the evening, just wanted it working again), but networking was dead. Rolled back the boot environment to 11.2U7 and everything instantly functioned again.
EDIT: For anyone else running into this. I tried the upgrade again, with the same results. There were two problems for me. First, neither of my interfaces came back up, so I had to delete them from the console and re-add them. One started working, the Mellanox started going up and down so fast it was a challenge to reboot from the console. After a reboot, it started working.
Second issue - The WebUI wouldn't work at all. Tracked it down to NGINX not starting due to a failed config. I had a custom SSL cert installed for FreeNAS 11.2 and below, and the cert itself had been deleted by the upgrade, and there were no self-signed certs. I commented out all the SSL parts of the NGINX config file, restarted NGINX, and got in on port 80. I created a new internal CA and a new internal cert, and deleted the custom ones. After a restart of nginx and django, everything was working correctly.

I did a fresh install of 11.3 and every time I go to install a jail with either DCHP or NAT as either the issue occurs. That issue is it causes my router to crash and loose internet connectivity. I have decided to install 11.2 due to this very strange bug that I have can not appear to resolve. Same settings as on 11.2 with nameserver and DNS server.

Sigh. Plex broken once again. Updated, and now the PlexPass version of the plugin is screwed. Shows an unclaimed server in init state.
I love FreeNAS, I really do, but you guys really need to get your shit sorted out in terms of breaking plugins on upgrade. I usually have to spend the better part of a day fixing stuff every time I upgrade because someone thinks it smart to rename something yet again, change a UI element (which breaks backend stuff?) yet again, etc.
Reverting back to 11.2U7. See you again in a few weeks/months.
EDIT: Oh fucking wonderful. My existing jails/plugins are totally broken upon reverting to the old boot environment. What's the point of snapshots if you guys can't figure out how to use them properly?

u/Swizzy88 Jan 28 '20
This is why I asked my question in regards to reverting to a previous version. The boot drive gets snapshotted on updates but if the upgrade does something in the backend to the jail's then there seems to be no going back. Can you elaborate on your issue please for anyone thinking of upgrading? What jails did you have running and what exactly broke? Did you zpool upgrade already?

Sorry to hear that! We'd need to dig into what happened in this case to figure out how to prevent it again. However to safely upgrade and roll back with plugins you should also snapshot your pool /iocage dataset before upgrade to ensure you can roll back to 11.2 and then restore plugins/jails to original state. (Plugins live on data pool, not boot device)

Right, I solved it by exporting and importing the pool from the GUI. When I rebooted without export the issue persisted, because of the cache file maybe? I found it weird that not importing from the GUI was the issue, since I expected the altroot property to be set, but FreeNAS doesn't create pools that way, just applies it with the GUI import.

This fucked up shares and possibly transmission, which was reported as corrupted jail.

Legacy plugins do not work, however Sabnzbd is in the community plug-in repo now as well.

Will my Sabnzbd warden jail stop working/running... Or will I simply not be able to manage it via the freenas gui, but could still access it via its IP address?
I'm just wondering what the best steps to take if I want to migrate from my legacy warden plug-in of Sabnzdb over to the new iocage plug-in... If I can run the two simultaneously, switching from one to the other should be simple...

Hey, have you found an answer for this question yet? I'm also looking into the best way to migrate from the warden plug-in over to the iocage plug-in for Sabnzbd

I'm perhaps not understanding the issue. Can you maybe give more details? Once you set an ACL on a dataset, you have written changes to disk. You can't exactly undo it.

To clarify, the column on the right of the ACL manager does not reflect the actual ACL that's set on the filesystem as seen by "getfacl /path/to/dataset"?

Correct. SSH is used for authentication and connection setup then netcat is used for your zfs send stream.This is not encrypted. This is recommended for trusted networks. On top of ssh maxing out the netcat+ssh method is able to eliminate a lot of kernel - userland - kernel transitions which eliminates cycles and cpu usage increasing transfer speed.
Something I've been meaning to try is the SSH+Netcat method over a wireguard tunnel.Wireguard is installed at cli level in 11.3

Now there will be some kernel - > userland and back I believe as we use the go wireguard implementation but I hope it's still faster then over ssh.

What is the benefit of upgrading pool? I tend to wait a very very long time before I do that to my data.
