I have 2 truenas machines, currently connected to the same network for the first time. 1st machine was a test unit, Morphine M6 N200. I set it up and used it successfully so I decided to move my main machine (Dell 3620) over to TRUENAS. Disconnected the first machine, second machine setup and working for 2+ weeks on 24.10. Tonight I reconnected the M6 and when I boot it up the console gives me the network error message and no UI IP.
From the console I tried setting the machine name from “truenas” to “BACKUPNAS”, which didn’t work. So then I also disabled DHCP and set the gateway IP (opnsense machine at 192.168.1.3) and nameserver IP (1.1.1.1) and gave the machine a static “alias” (192.168.1.6). Still no luck. The static IP I setup is what is displayed in the console but I cannot access it from any machine on the network.
Please educate me about my errors here. Thanks
