I tried on both 6.9.0-rc2 & 6.8.3 and get the right version after a reboot. I have only ran it on my test server and have not seen anything strange. But to be honest I only run zfs on that install and nothing else going on there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Built zfs-2.0.1 for 6.8.3 & 6.9.0-rc2 If you want to update zfs versions you have to remove the old cached version rm /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS/packages/* And then restart the server Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry guys, did not see that update. Will build now Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Im still on 6.8.3 but will see whats going on on my build server tomorrow Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No I just wish all my standalone dockers and vms could stay up even though the array was stopped. But to be fair I really seldomly have to mess with the array. But I don't think this is really a problem though. I have had this running over 5 years now without a single hickup and 0 bytes in data loss. And with the daily zfs replication I had 3 months of daily backups I could go back to if I needed any old configs etc. My point being this started as a way for me to make the perfect setup for me and I'm happy that it has helped others. Funny to look back at the beginning and seeing the first reply to this thread. It took some time for him to to find time to play with it, but when zfs becomes a official part of unraid I will open a small bottle of Champagne [emoji1635] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just to be clear I meant for example plex in a docker accessing /mnt/user/Movies I keep everything zfs under /mnt/SSD including docker.img libvirt.img, vms and docker data without problems. I just was talking about media that is shared inside the vms/docker from /mnt/user/ eg music movies or tvshows Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

zfs 2.0.0 build for 6.9.0-rc2 is up. Thanks to @ich777 for the build server!

I agree, but it makes it a bit difficult if you are passing through Unraid storage to the VM or Dockers. Maybe there could be made a change to the KVM/Docker service and allow to run Vms/Containers that are not dependant on anything in /mnt/user even if the array is off. That would indeed mean that Pfsense/Homeassistant etc. could keep running even if you had to do some maintenance and stop the array. I guess there is more to this and how the network stack etc is set up. But if there is a will there is a way. My hope is that the native ZFS that is "Coming soon TM" will maybe add some good gui presets, but will keep feature parity with this plugin. That is a vanilla version of ZFS under the hood that can be used without restriction.

Yeah sure I’m up for that [emoji3060] But yeah that process will get you on zfs 2.0 if you have not already updated to that in 6.8.3 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes. But to be clear I don’t update the plug-in every time I make a new build, only when I need to change the way we load the zfs modules. For example recently with the addition of overlayFS There has not been a change to the plug-in since November, only new builds: https://github.com/Steini1984/unRAID6-ZFS/commits/master Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Built ZFS 2.0.0 for Unraid 6.9.0-rc1

Correct

Built OpenZFS 2.0.0 for 6.8.3 & 6.9.0-beta35 Here you can see the changelog, congrats to the team! https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/releases/tag/zfs-2.0.0 Since the plugin caches the install files you need to manually remove them and reboot if you want to upgrade rm /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS/packages/* I would implement a more elegant solution, but since native ZFS on unRAID is on the horizon I dont see the need. Also if you are afraid of the CLI this plugin is not great for you anyway

Yeah you can just remove lines 444-446 in the plugin. For example using nano nano -c /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS.plg

Remove the cached package then reboot rm /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS/packages/*

Built zfs-2.0.0-rc7 for unRAID-6.8.3 & 6.9.0-beta35 Great to see that unRAID is finally adding native ZFS so this might be one of the last builds from me And yes, i´m already using the new way of side-loading kernel moduels in this plugin

First Update the zfs plugin, then Unraid and finally reboot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You have been using the 2.0.0 rc version of zfs and need to enable unstable builds. From the original post “Now with the ZFS 2.0.0 RC series I have enabled unstable builds for those who want to try them out: #Enable unstable builds touch /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS/USE_UNSTABLE_BUILDS rm /boot/config/plugins/unRAID6-ZFS/packages/* #Then reboot “ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Built zfs-0.8.5 for unRAID-6.9.0-beta35 I also built zfs-2.0.0-rc6 for unRAID-6.8.3 & unRAID-6.9.0-beta35 if you are on beta35 you should update the plugin and restart to be on the safe side

I had to update the plugin to adjust to the new modules system and make it backwards compatable so try updating the plugin

Yeah I just put it all together and pushing it out now Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Building right now ... Running into some build issues. Hopefully I'll have time to figure it out over the weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would not use USB for main storage, it's slow and can cause a mess if you disconnect the usb cable without exporting the pool. I have used a buffalo diskstation over usb for zfs replication for years and that works perfectly fine after I put it on a UPS

Check the Dashboard tab, you are in Main Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I use check_mk for overall monitoring of my servers and everything that has a network. It seems that the unassigned drives are being monitored by unraid : Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
