Hi All,
I'm having a issue with my FreeBSD 9-RELEASE installation (I use the ZFSguru system image). All works fine for a few days/weeks but then the system randomly freezes. There's no pattern in these freezes (I guess). Once I had it in a SSH session, after typing su, the system froze. But sometimes in the morning I wake up and I can't access my ZFS shares.
I have a bootdisk (SSD) with the FreeBSD/ZFSguru installation and two pools. One is a three-disk RAID-Z1 and the other one is a six-disk RAID-Z2. I have virtualbox 4.0.16 installed with a Windows Server 2008 R2 VM for recording six IP cameras. They have three cores assigned with a 90% execution cap. Audio and USB2.0 support is disabled. Guest additions are installed.
I have no clue what is freezing my system, as I also tested it with no VM's running. System still freezes from time to time, most of the time it's after 1-2 weeks. Maybe there's no or bad support for the Z68 chipset with a Core i5 2500K? Or should I run MemTest for longer than two complete cycles?
To be honest, I don't know what to do. I hope one of you recognizes this problem and can help me out.
P.S.: I'm new to FreeBSD, discovered it via ZFSguru by reading about ZFS on a Dutch forum. Below you can find my system specs.
