So, I finally found some time (and courage) to upgrade my TrueNAS box from 13.1-U6 to 13.3. The main trigger was a dead front fan in my Fractal Define R5 case, making the other fan work twice as hand and loud. Anyway, replaced the fan, dusted and upgraded without any problems.
On a roll, I thought I try upgrading a jail from 13.1-RELEASE to 13.3-RELEASE, but I’m having some problems. It’s a while since I upgraded them from 12 to 13, so can’t remember exactly how I did it, but I’m guessing it was through the built-in console. That’s gone, so I’m having to SSH.
I’d downloaded the latest version:
#iocage fetch -r 13.3-RELEASE
And the using:
#iocage upgrade -r 13.3-RELEASE jailname
It starts off fine, and I get past the section where I need to confirm with several y’s, but then I get the file list, and it pauses with a :
I remember this step takes some time, but my SSH connection is timing out and when I log back in I’ve lost my progress. I’m connecting from a MacBook using Terminal.
Any suggestions which don’t involve installing a different OS
Thank you both so much! How have I been using FreeNAS/TrueNAS for almost 10 years, and I didn’t know about tmux? Once I’d worked out it was still running after the terminal disconnects, I’d managed to find the “q” command from a Google search taking me back to the old forum (ah, how I miss that place)
It’s great to know you get the same outstanding help and support over here though! One jail down, 5 to go…
Has no one told you that the people from the old forums have been frozen in subzero cryogenic stasis?
We’re all clones here. I can understand if the avatar icons and usernames might have caused this confusion.
I must admit, having to learn the (unfunny) humor of Sir Winnie the Linnie has been quite the struggle for me. However, I think I’ve mastered it in the last few months.
The Original Stux is not even French, yet his clone keeps slipping with “le”. Some clones are better mimickers of the originals. Oh well.
