ZFS Setup?

  • I have been trying to setup ZFS on Open media vault and have no success. I've read through some post and it sounds like it may not be possible due to some issues with Debian source. Could someone confirm this? I'd really prefer to use ZFS but I'm not a huge fan of the FreeNAS community.

    I have been trying to setup ZFS on Open media vault and have no success.

    Hard to help without some information.


    I've read through some post and it sounds like it may not be possible due to some issues with Debian source.

    What posts? zfs works fine on my systems and many others.

  • All I could say is that OMV + ZFS works fine.


    There were issues recently with the 4.15 backport kernel (not the OMV fault), and there is a known bug to be solved with the panel of the ZFS plugin (soon I assumed).


    But all in one, OMV 4.x + ZFS plugin is rock solid and a nice combo. Feel free to go with it.

    Above are the result of running apt-get install openmediavault-zfs


    The process I used:


    Install open media vault on bare metal using openmediavault_4.1.3-amd64.iso
    Run all updates via gui
    Upload extras plugin
    Run updates again
    install zfs plugin, failed to install reference linux headers
    I then tried a new install from cli using apt-get install openmediavault-zfs and received the same error.


    I was following the procedure here: [HOWTO] Instal ZFS-Plugin & use ZFS on OMV

  • Personnaly, I've gone with a CLI ZFS install and then added OMV plugin.


    https://linuxhint.com/install-zfs-debian/


    Add the 'contrib' and 'non-free' to the debian packages conf in /etc/apt/sources.list
    Refresh


    Code
    apt-get update
    Code
    # ln -s /bin/rm /usr/bin/rm
    # apt-get install zfs-dkms

    Then check with:


    Code
    # modprobe zfs
    # lsmod | grep zfs


    Reboot (not sure, but that wouldn't hurt to check) ;)


    Install openmediavault-zfs plugin with the GUI.


    Now, create your pool, etc...

  • Thanks sbocquest I'll have to give this a if I can't complete the install via openmedia vault directly.

    The zfs plugin depends on linux-headers-amd64 which is pointed at the headers for the 4.15 kernel right now. You need need to install the 4.15 kernel.

    I think have the kernel updated however the zfs install is hanging on Building initial module for 4.15.0-0.bpo.2-amd64

    Hanging? It does take a while to build especially on slower systems.

  • I finally was able to get it installed. I think I was missing some linux headers.


    I now have the ZFS listed under storage however when I go to create a pool it isn't showing any of my devices.


    After a quick wipe of all devices. Things are now working. Thank you everyone for your help!

  • You need to wipe them before if those disks were used before. You can it on the Disks panel.
