    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    I seemed to have more luck 6.7, once I went to 7 it was horribly unstable with TrueNAS. TrueNAS is kind of hard to troubleshoot because documentation is lacking and it has a small approved hardware list and requires knowledge of BSD/Unix to troubleshoot at all. It is built to sell their...

    Can I ask what NIC are you using physical I found that TrueNAS really seems to care if your NIC is not intel, even if its virtualized.

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    I didn't even fully solve it in the end, I ended up just installing Truenas Core on the hardware directly and now have no problems, but I understand some people will not want to do that, for me it's just a home server, so was really not a big deal, and I only had 1 other VM because truenas...

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    Sorry to bump this again but I was getting slowdown after prolonged file transfer down to 10MB/sec over a 5 gig link from my workstation, I went back to passthrough as this is the only machine that needs 10G anyway, and its working flawlessly for many hours of copying now, ranging in speeds from...

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    Okay, so the issue the whole time was indeed the NIC. I also changed it to boot BIOS instead of UEFI but I am not convinced that had anything to do with it tbh, I will reinstall and test on UEFI now as I think it's knowing. (I did it and it works on UEFI too so it was the NIC 100%) Aquantia...

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    1. have not tried ssh/scp, i do not use linux, or ssh, or scp or nfs for anything in my environment, it's a home lab 2. Don't have or use any linux or freebsd anywhere else, just trying to setup truenas core 3. I made a new ZFS pool using the same drives on both HBAs (one at a time), on separate...

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    No VLANS at all, flat 192.168.1.1/24 network, all systems on the same switch, only a virtual NIC is passed though, does the TrueNAS Core NIC need to be physical?

    ESXI TrueNAS Core 13 VM, at my whit's end

    I have run ESXI on this server for years, never had an issue with any other VM but I'm all windows, so not used to other things so much. I had this H710 passed through to my plex server because it was not compatible with ESXI, but I needed it for the shelf to connect. which was originally 15x...
