An error occurred while accessing 'e', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Mount: failed with mount: /dev/ada1p1: Operation not permitted

I had a hard time describing this problem succinctly to generate a title. Thanks also for your patience, as I am not a professional sysadmin but a scientist. The bottom line is that my 4U JBOD power-cycled (or the controller dropped it) for some reason. When the disks came back online, there...

Similar to how BitLocker and LUKS partitions can be unlocked by the TPM. I was able to do it on my Debian system by adding an additional LUKS key and saving it in my TPM and when the system starts up, it asks for it from the TPM (my extremely basic understanding of it).

This is a brand-new computer, so I don't know if this is an issue with this controller or some other kind of interaction within the system. Suggestions for troubleshooting are welcome. On a fresh install of FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE, I'm only getting about 70MB/s while doing a dd if=/dev/zero...

Hello. I'm using GELI on my laptop for whole disk encryption. Boot partition is located on separate thumb-drive. My loader.conf contains such strings for decryption: The questions are: 1. Is it possible to move this keys to another thumb drive in such a way that loader could find them while...

I have a SATA 2.5" SSD connected to the onboard SATA connectors with ZFS-on-root FreeBSD installed. There are 9 hard disks connected: 8 via an LSI PCI-E card and one connected via SATA to the onboard SATA connector. For some reason FreeBSD boots off of the SSD but when setting up the disks it...

Hi All, Trying to mount the old 1TB (but working disk) on new server, and get it to appear every time on boot up (and be visible in Windows via Samba). This is what "gpart show da0" shows: => 63 1953525105 da0 MBR (932G) 63 1953525105 1 freebsd [active] (932g)...

I am experiencing generally slow system on my arm64 (rk3399) box - slow opening of new tmux pane, slow opening new zsh instance, slow startup of vim, slow opening files in vim. All config files are the same as on my 10 years old amd64 laptop which works as expected. Same arm64 hardware with...

Just wondering if it has been considered to not auto select dos for the disk if the disk is detected to be over 2TB? GPT works but it'd be nice to have it just work automatically?

I have the following sutuation in my PC and I would like to extend the size of the FreeBSD partition -partition number 13. The problem is that the extension cannot be continuous unless I delete the var partition (4GB) and recreate it later after the extension and by taking backup. Swap partition...

The problem is this. As you know, the essence of TRIM is to clean up blocks that are no longer needed by the file system in the background, or with minimal impact on performance. On my own system, the picture is as follows. We create a file of 2 GB in size, delete it, and the disk spends all its...

This is a public "note to self" that I hope will be useful to somebody out there. This evening I wanted to install FreeBSD in a VM under KVM on a Linux VM-host. Also, when I install FreeBSD with ZFS (Read: Always), I like to partition and setup the disks by hand via the "Shell" option in the...

Hi, I have this output in Linux using iostat: I want to get r_await and w_await in FreeBSD, which definitions are: r_await: The average time (in milliseconds) for read requests issued to the device to be served. This includes the time spent by the requests in queue and the time spent...

This, from a different discussion, reminded me that I wanted to ask a question ages ago, but never got around to asking. A long time ago I did a basic UNIX course, on System V I think it was, and the instructor said "do a sync before you shutdown, this will ensure disk cache is written out"...

I have recently started working with bhyve setting up virtual servers in my office. So far it works great. Now that it I see how well it works I am regretting not making my file server larger. Is there any way I can just "append" the VM disk file and make it bigger without having to build...

Hi, It is a new install on an old IBM tower server. I have played with 10.x 32 and 64 bit on it before but this is 64bit 11.1. I think there is an issue with a hard disk but it seems inconsistent. The server is an IBM 84852AU 206m. The boot drive is a SATA 64GB ssd taken from and HP proliant...

Hi, I have an issue with Seagate ST10000NM0016 drives sporadically refusing to work. 8 of them are attached to a 9207-8i controller and assembled in a RAIDZ2. At unpredictable intervals, drives throw errors like (da6:mps2:0:45:0): SYNCHRONIZE CACHE(10). CDB: 35 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00...

I'd like to reduce disk size to 10G on bhyve VM. Is it possible to do it on "live" system and keep untouched data? Eventually on single user boot. => 34 83886013 vtbd0 GPT (40G) 34 1024 1 freebsd-boot (512K) 1058 83884958 2 freebsd-ufs (40G)...
