I imported an already existing zfs pool but then I wanted to change name and I followed this procedure to rename it.
Export the pool through the GUI. Be sure not to check the box to destroy all data.
From the CLI, zpool import oldpoolname newpoolname
From the CLI, zpool export newpoolname
From the GUI, import the pool.
After I successfully renamed and imported it, I still found it with the old name under /mnt/. Any suggestion on this?
I have also another problem, I tried to use the apps but when I configure the pool to use for the apps, they are still mounted under /mnt/ix-apps instead of /mnt/MyChosenPool/ix-apps
I couldn’t find any way under the GUI to change the mount point of a pool. BY default it uses the name of the pool, so I guess you will need to use export again and use the CLI to change the mount point before importing again.
This topic has come up before a while ago (could have been 1 to 2 years ago) and it was a CLI solution as I recall, however I do not recall what that solution was. At least I am pretty sure the OP was able to make the change.
However, before making a change like that, I recommend you have a backup of your data.
After reading the posting again, I’m thinking it is not renaming your pool, it is about moving /ix-apps instead regardless of the pool name. I would imagine quite a few links would need to be changed. I don’t know how that would be done under SCALE. I believe there was a bit of manual file moving and then editing some links.
Out of curiosity, did you search for an answer before asking it? Google seems to have quite a few hits, but you may need to do some reading.
Thanks it helped you command made the trick. I then tried to apply settings on network section (add a couple of VLANs) but when I try to apply those settings Truenas just gets a lot of errors and crashes. I saw that the dual intel i226v is not really adviced as card. Since I want to improve my energy efficiency and go lower than 100-110w I am start to thinking about make a new build for my nas system.
Yes sorry. The connection between things is not clear
Basically the problem with pool renaming is solved and another problem arose. My motherboard has 2x2.5Gb intel i226v which are giving problems when I try to set VLANs (basically truenas crashes). I read on the forum that this chip is not really good/compatible for truenas and I was considering another card (intel x710 because it also seem to support ASPM to reach lower c states) but it seems that also this one is like a russian roulette many cases of not visible device and stuf… any other 10Gb nic that supports ASPM?
