#truenasscale — Public Fediverse posts

This might sound crazy to the TrueNAS Scale developers, but I'd like to be able to view the logs for an application after it has stopped, y'know so I can determine why it stopped, especially when it has crashed.
#truenas #truenasscale

Does anyone know what service TrueNas Scale uses for networking?
It doesn't seem to be using NetworkManager or networkd, is it some home-grown thing? Is it something else?

Remember that massive Debian family tree thread? It officially has a home on my Codeberg now.

I have cleaned it up, fixed the links, and organized it so it is easier to navigate. If you are looking for a non-Ubuntu Debian based distro, this is a decent place to start.

I love using Debian. I think it is so interesting that so many distros have been or currently are based on Debian. While I prefer vanillia Debian, I wanted to list all of the Debian based distros (non-Ubuntu) I know of and categorize them based on what makes them unique.

Daily Drivers (Ease of use):

LMDE - Linux Mint + Debian, no Ubuntu, Mint polish
MX Linux - MXTools is helpful
Deepin - Beautiful, preconfigured desktop, from China.
Peppermint_OS – Lightweight, cloud integrated, snappy
Neptune - Polished KDE Plasma on stable Debian w/newer kernels.
SpiralLinux – Pure Debian with modern defaults (Btrfs, ZRAM).
SolydXK – Simplified XFCE/KDE desktops for stability.
Lingmo OS / Mauna Linux / Br OS - Recent, beautiful desktops (China/Brazil)

Modern/Atomic (Immutable):

Vanilla OS - Atomic updates, can run Fedora/Arch apps via Apx.
blendOS - Atomic, lets you choose DE (KDE, XFCE, etc), can install applications from other Linux distros.
Nitrux - Immutable, no systemd (OpenRC), Maui shell, immutable, heavy reliance on AppImage

High Performance and Gaming:

Siduction - Rolling release based on Debian Sid.
SparkyLinux - Great for gaming, newer drivers.
PikaOS - Gaming with high-performance kernel opimizations.

Multimedia/Creative:

AV Linux (MX Edition) – Preconfigured w/low-latency kernel for audio production.

Minimalist:

BashCore - Ultra minimalist, branding free CLI environment.
Slax - Modular, tiny, runs from a USB stick.

Performance and Old Hardware (Lightweight):

antiX - No systemd, runs on a toaster (256MB RAM)
CrunchBang++ (#!++)- Minimalist, Debian + Openbox, continuation of original Crunchbang.
BunsenLabs - minimalist OpenBox, keyboard centric.
Window Maker Live - 90s NeXTSTEP look, fast, retro.
Puppy Linux (DPup) - Runes entirely on RAM, fast.
Elive - Enlightenment desktop, high-end looks for 20 year old hardware.
Damn Small Linux - Stays under 700MB.
wattOS - Low power consumption and simplicity.
Q4OS – Trinity desktop, can mimic Windows XP/7.
Commodore OS Vision - Retro computing aesthetic.

Security, Privacy, and Stealth:

Qubes OS - Isolates everything inside Xen VMs, has Debian and Fedora as default templates.
Tails - Amnesic "Snowden" OS, leaves no trace on hardware.
Whonix - Extreme privacy via dual-VM gateway/workstation.
Kodachi - Hardened, pre-routed live OS alternative to Tails.
Septor – Surf the web anonymously.
Kicksecure - Hardened Debian layer (the base for Whonix).

IT and SysAdmin Toolbox:

Kali Linux/Parrot OS - "Hackerman" suites for penetration testing.
GParted Live/Dr. Parted - Disk partitioning
Grml/Finnix/Knoppix - "Oh Shit Buttons", emergency ktis for broken PCs.
SysLinuxOS/Kaisen - Built for network admins and system integrators.

Servers, Cloud, and Self Hosting:

Proxmox VE - Server, machine host for VMs
TrueNAS Scale - NAS, built for ZFS storage and applications.
OpenMediaVault - Turns old hardwrae into NAS
umbrelOS/StartOS/YunoHost - self-host your own cloud.
Univention (UCS) - Professional Debian for corporate identity mangement.

Network & Radio Engineering:

Live Raizo – Specialized lab environment for network admins to simulate and experiment with complex network topologies (integrated with GNS3).
Skywave Linux – Built for Software Defined Radio (SDR) and shortwave enthusiasts. Preconfigured with specific drivers and software needed to communicate on the airwaves.
VyOS – Network OS for routers and firewalls.

Embedded, IoT, and Media:

Raspberry Pi OS - OS specifically for Raspberry Pi
DietPi - lightweight, optimized base for hobbyist boards.
OSMC - Turn hardware into dedicated Kodi media center.
LinuxCNC - Controls heavy machinery and 3D printers.

Mobile Distros:

Mobian - Debian for phones and tablets.
PureOS - FSF endorsed, famous for Librem 5 convergence.
Droidian - Allows Debian to run on standard Android hardware.
LuneOS - Spiritual successor to Palm webOS.
FuriOS – OS for the FuriLabs FLX1, includes Waydroid.

Philosopy and Geopolitics:

Hier mal eine Spezialfrage ins Netzwerk für alle die sich schon mal ein NAS selbst zusammen gebaut haben. Keine Ahnung, ob es Leute hier gibt.

Aktuell plane ich mit i5-14600T und Fraktal 804 - Macht es Sinn hier noch eine Graka mit einzubauen, um eine KI mit Ollama zu betreiben?

Das OS wird auf jeden Fall so Stand heute eine TrueNas Scale.

@estevez @betoniusz I'm following a similar path: jonsbo n2 with an Intel n305 motherboard from cwwk (Topton n18 would also work).

I haven't decided the OS yet. #TruenasScale or a build it myself approach with #Debian...

Stealing disks from your #synologynas sounds like music to my ears.

Hallo, #ITBubble. Hat jemand schon auf #TrueNasScale 25.04 geupgraded? Geht das reibungslos? #selfhosting

#truenasscale fangtooth, the latest stable release, contains an explicit note that the new hypervisor is experimental and incompatible with the old one.

Fangtooth brings a stable version of optimised block deduplication, which was experimental in the last stable version.

It is looking like 'stable' now means 'one experimental feature'. Not cool.

#TrueNAS 25.04 Released For Unifying SCALE & CORE Offerings
TrueNAS 25.04 is notable for unifying their #Linux-based #TrueNASSCALE and #TrueNASCORE #FreeBSD-based platforms. While TrueNAS was previously known for its BSD base, Linux has proven viable for this network attached storage platform. TrueNAS 25.04 is powered by the Linux 6.12 LTS kernel while employing the #OpenZFS file-system support.

Well, #trueNasScale upgrade to 24.10/electricEel was mostly uneventful!

Two things didn't work:
- qBittorrent, but I'd configured NPM wrong, fat fingers 🙄
- tailscale, reinstalled it and it worked fine 🤷‍♂️

The upcoming #TrueNASScale release comes with #Incus built-in so I took it for a spin to see how the integration was done!

One Update of truenas later (ok, to the 25.04 RC): neither proper display size updates nor copy and paste sync do work anymore. Oh well, back to figuring that out...

#TrueNAS 25.04 "Fangtooth" Beta Unifies#Linux SCALE & #FreeBSD CORE Efforts
It was released on Thursday as another step toward unifying #TrueNASCORE derived from FreeBSD and Linux-based #TrueNASSCALE.
TrueNAS 25.04 "Fantooth" is an upgrade for TrueNAS SCALE 24.10 and TrueNAS CORE 13.x. TrueNAS 25.04 beta is powered by the Linux 6.12 LTS kernel, makes use of OpenZFS 2.3, there is much faster #OpenZFS #RAIDZ expansion, new instances support, and a number of other features.

Is there a nice friendly/foolproof graphic interface for managing #linux ACLs? Something that shows at a glance who can access what.

I want to deploy an #immich container, but with the media folders in a place other users can access, and immich only able to access its folder. I am worried I will misconfigure it with the default #truenasscale tools.

Absolutely furious that I know my #TrueNASScale #NAS local IP Address by heart.

I was not meant to retain, let alone need such knowledge.

Ten 12TB drives and five 14TB drives in a repurposed #Intel 10th gen i9 with 18c/32t and 192GB of RAM.

Two specific pools of 80TB and 50TB all in a @45drives #HL15 build.

#TrueNASScale for the storage management.

I'm not impressed with my first foray into #TrueNAS #TrueNASSCALE last time I was on it it was called FreeNas back in 2015. That was rock solid for about 5 years before I went to something else.
Last month I installed it on a new system I built. It's been running pretty solid. Just upgraded to 24.10.0.2 last night. The entire thing went unresponsive and no video out. This morning I force rebooted the system. Looks like it's doing a dump on boot. Really doesn't speak highly to the stability of this product. Since I had a clean install and I haven't done anything funky with it's configuration. Nor are the OS drives located on anything out of the ordinary. Just a standard SATA connection on the motherboard along with the application drive also on SATA. Everything else is on a SAS HBA.

If I use #incus directly on the Dell R530, I wonder if #truenasscale could run in a #vm. I would like to continue to have a file server and #truenas does that well enough for me.

Could I either pass through the storage to #truenas or could it use the storage in #incus (if I continue to use #zfs instead of one of the other filesystem options it has)?

I’m very interested in #incus and considering using it to manage #container and #vm in my #homelab. I’m currently using #truenasscale on a Dell R530. This is costly to run in terms of electricity, so I’m debating if I should move to one or more smaller/newer host devices.

Das #Update von #TrueNAS auf Version 24.10 lief erstaunlich reibungslos. Das einzige Problem, das ich hatte, war, dass ich die Migration der Apps von #Kubernetes zu #Docker manuell in der Konsole anstoßen musste. Hat zwar ein bisschen gedauert, lief aber reibungslos ab. #TrueNASscale #ITsupport #IT #ITbubble #selfhosting

YOLOed my upgrade to #truenasscale Electric Eel (24.10) and lost all/both of my apps. Thankfully I was delaying setting up complex apps until I'd updated - A reason to just do it. But still annoying. Anyone upgrading I urge you to read the documentation first.

Any other #Asustor #NAS users out there? I feel constrained by the ADM ecosystem and software and I've been wanting to replace it on our #AS6510T with something less under Asustor's control and more under my own, but I'm a chicken and afraid of (a) borking something or (b) losing proprietary hardware functionality.

Anyone out there in a similar situation succeeded in installing #TrueNAS Scale, in particular?

#truenas #truenas_scale #truenasscale

It just occured to me that naming #TrueNASSCALE distros after fish is a pun.

Ale się cieszę, że sobie TrueNASa postawiłem. Apki to jest dobra rzecz i gdyby nie HDR to już bym się przerzucił z Kodi na Jellyfin

Gave #Devuan one last go.

The GNOME #protonvpn client appears to work fine in xfce! DNS and torrent leak free!

The default Thunar file manager behavior is to not mount and not give the option. A pox upon.

So, sigh, I learnt how to mount in fstab with freetext creds in /root/.filewithcreds. We does it, but we hates it.

And now everything works! That's 3 of 4 Windows VMs I can now reimplement in Linux.

And for bonus points Devuan has been my smoothest experience with the #truenasscale implementation of #Spicespace. And I like the default GUI a lot.

#devuan is a champion OS for cool people and I am done with Debian and Ubuntu forever (at least until next week).

#iXsystems: No one is being 'marooned' by #Debian focus
From now on iXsystems will develop #TrueNASSCALE faster than #TrueNASCORE (#FreeBSD), with #TrueNAS CORE becoming more of a maintenance product. SCALE is based on Debian #Linux, termed a #scaleout product, and supports #Docker Containers, #Kubernetes, #KVM, #Gluster, and a wider range of hardware than CORE.
https://blocksandfiles.com/2024/04/08/ixsystems-no-one-is-getting-marooned/

Long time #FreeNAS/TrueNAS Core user, my next build will be SCALE for sure

Liebe #ITBubble und #Selfhosters: Wie macht ihr das? Einfach #TrueNASSCALE und dann dort die #VMs und #Docker Images (#Nextcloud) laufen lassen oder lieber #Proxmox und dann #TrueNas mit PCI-Passthrough laufen lassen? Bei mir läuft die erste Option seit einem Jahr und bin semi-zufrieden. Würde gerne zur Proxmox Variante wechseln, weiß aber, dass das von TrueNAS nicht offiziell unterstützt wird. #itsupport

Recently found my #TrueNASScale in need of multiple #TrueCharts app updates. Good. But breaking changes, so: More work, more backups, more possible problems.

I think this is the second batch of breaking updates this year. Not what I expected when I decided for TrueNAS+TrueCharts. Updates are good; having to delete apps and re-install them, with some hacky way to keep the data, is not good. Maybe one time. Not twice a year.

I think I will jump the TrueCharts ship for something less volatile. 😢

Of course, now that I’ve laboriously set up my #homelab #StepCA #CertificateAuthority, I am finding that #Pfsense and the #TrueNASScale #TrueCharts apps for #Traefik and #CertManager don’t integrate easily via #ACME custom servers or otherwise. 🤦‍♂️
