    Hitachi Harddisks Thread (5K3000, 7K3000, 7K2000)

    Hello, I recently purchased 4 HGST Deskstar 5K4000s (2 each from 2 different vendors). I chose this model because of their excellent failure rate statistics at Backblaze's reports, and the lower ~5400RPM speed, as they will all be running side-by-side in a HP Microserver, so I figured they'd...

    Monitor CPU temp in napp-it?

    Is there any way to determine the current CPU temperature in napp-it (running on Solaris 11.1)?

    Should SMB service be running at startup?

    I recently reinstalled Solaris+nappit on my machine, and found that I have to log into the web interface and manually start the SMB server service after every boot - is this normal? Because I'm sure that with the previous installation (before I reinstalled everything), the SMB server was already...

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    UPDATE: I destroyed the destination pool and recreated it, unlocked the encrypted filesystem and tried to do a recursive replication of the whole source pool. Once again, only the other unencrypted pool was copied to the destination. So, I setup a separate replication job just for the encrypted...

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    Thanks, yeah that makes sense. I ran the replication job, but unfortunately there was a problem: My pool contains two filesystems, one of which is encrypted. I forgot to unlock the encrypted one before I ran the replication job the first time, and only the unencrypted filesystem was replicated...

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    Thanks, I'm running this now; hopefully I chose the correct options: Source pool: 'tank' (my RAIDZ2 zpool) Enable recursive: Enabled (because my source zpool contains two datasets/filesystems, but the page advises against this, why? I just want to replicate the whole pool with all of its...

    Can't mirror boot (USB) disk

    Do I initialize the stick in Drive Management in Windows? I have already partitioned and formatted the stick with FAt32 to test it on my Windows machine before I plugged it into my Solaris 11.1 Microserver.

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    This one is my preferred option; is it possible to do this via the webGUI? Again, is this possible to do via the napp-it webGUI, and how do I do it? Thanks again.

    Can't mirror boot (USB) disk

    I'm running Solaris 11.1 with napp-it from an ultrafast USB flash drive (Sandisk Extreme 32GB), and I'm trying to use napp-it's 'mirror bootdisk' menu feature to create a mirror of my boot disk onto another identical flash drive, but it says that there are no mirror disks available: This...

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    Yes it is, but I also want to protect myself against electrical storms/power surges, software/hardware error, fire, theft and flooding by keeping an offline/off-site copy :P

    Internal ZFS pool backup onto external HDD

    I now have my HP Microserver running Solaris 11.1+napp-it, with a 4 x 2TB RAIDZ2 zpool (~3.6TB usable space). I also have an external eSATA 4TB HDD, which I want to 'mirror'/'replicate' (I'm not sure if these are the right terms) the data from the internal zpool onto. Am I able to do this from...

    Setting up/configuring SMB/SIFS shares in napp-it

    Yeah I am actually using 11.1, I should've been more clear about that, sorry haha :)

    Oh wow, that fixed this whole entire problem; thank you so much!

    Setting up/configuring SMB/SIFS shares in napp-it

    Also, do I need to reset the root password after napp-it has finished installing (as suggested in this guide)?:

    Setting up/configuring SMB/SIFS shares in napp-it

    OK, do I do that by stopping and restarting the SMB service?

    Setting up/configuring SMB/SIFS shares in napp-it

    I will try that. I was wondering if these steps are required, or it they are automatically applied with the latest napp-it build?:

    Setting up/configuring SMB/SIFS shares in napp-it

    Maybe, but I just suspect that there is just such a trivial solution for this that I have somehow missed. I am going to do a full reinstall tomorrow and see if it behaves as it should do. If not, I guess I'll have to reluctantly switch to freenas or something. Which is a shame, because napp-it...
