I started smoking cigarettes when I was 16, back in 1987. Marlboro was my favorite for decades until 2010 when the quality all of a sudden became terrible. I started smoking pipes and I was buying tobacco from Germany because I could not find Full Virginia Flake here in Greece. EU prohibited the...

You don't need to master vi but you definitely need to know how to use it if you want to be a Unix sys admin

You are either experiencing a DDoS on port 443 or your server is compromised, initiating outgoing connections.

This is really weird, try unplugging the keyboard from the box to eliminate any chances of a malfunction sending Ctrl+Alt+Del I know how it sounds

Typo...

Or in your case you could, gpart delete -i 1 /dev/ada0 and then gpart add -t freebsd-ufs /dev/ada0 Then newfs -U /dev/ada0p1

Try gpart destroy -F /dev/ada0 first

First, make sure you have a recent backup of your data. Then you can follow the Handbook instructions In your case, you will need to destroy first the spinning HDD partition

EXT4 is not a "native" FS so if this drive is used only for FreeBSD you should probably use UFS. Regarding ZFS, I never use it unless there is at least a mirror set up.

Sorry wrong server, I guess I need a break

I upgraded my storage server from FreeBSD 11.3-RELEASE to FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE today. root@sigma:~ # uptime 6:34PM up 186 days, 5:48, 1 user, load averages: 0.40, 0.34, 0.32 root@sigma:~ # date Thu Oct 29 18:34:20 EET 2020

Do you have zfs_enable=yes in rc.conf ?

Never mind the disk is smaller in size

Hi all, I have a storage that refuses to replace a faulty disk: zpool status pool: datastore state: DEGRADED status: One or more devices could not be opened. Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state. action: Attach the missing device and online...

For proper alignment of the pool(s) you also need to sysctl vfs.zfs.min_auto_ashift=12 That needs to be done before creating them. You can check by running zdb | grep ashift and expect a value of 12 I am not sure if it is default in 12.1

I don't think the problem is with your DNS server ~gkontos$ dig @8.8.8.8 kb.isc.org ; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> @8.8.8.8 kb.isc.org ; (1 server found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 43444 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 5...

Don't you have any other box running FreeBSD where you can store those backups so that you can use UFS instead of NTFS ?

SirDice You are correct!

Yes, you can copy the Jail to a FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE host physical or virtual. All you need to have is misc/compat7x installed on the host system. You will need to adjust the rc.conf of the host system so that the jail can start properly

If I am not mistaken, the syntax for /etc/crontab goes like this: when, who, what SirDice suggested not to use /etc/crontab which is correct since it might get overwritten in a future update.
