 FreeNAS 11.2 u2 was released on February 18th 2019 and there is a lot of things going on here And the good news is with the new interface. I know not everybody loves it I personally do prefer it and there's of course been bugs found with any time you do a major interface update and They've been quashing those bugs. They quashed a just ton of them here So this was a wonderful code update to that and If you are unfamiliar with the couple recent flaws that were found in engine X and curl They updated those as well. Those are some of the back-end things on there There was basically some out of memory problems You could run into with some well-crafted packets sent to engine X under certain circumstances So you definitely want to have the update in terms of those. Hopefully this is generally behind a firewall and managed from a management network and not exposed to the Greater internet as a whole so your risk is hopefully mitigated by that So you can only you only were about the things inside your network, which hopefully are trusted So those are the major things a couple other things they brought back which I get why they did it and I'll bring it over here We'll go over here to the services We're gonna go over here to the Samba SMB protocol They brought back a checkbox for Enabling legacy SMB one support and I know this caused problem for a lot of people who are running free nas and like a legacy environment Being able to support it. This is a deprecated protocol that has issues. It is not perfect By far. I just got a handful of flaws So people have moved on to it even Microsoft has abandoned this and on systems But I do realize if you have a legacy environment Hopefully it's locked down probably not connected to the internet because we don't have any free nas implementation like this But we've run into where we have to this day. We still have a manufacturing company running their laser cutters Office series of Windows 95 machines But not too much of work because they there is no network connectivity Because giving Windows 9 machine Windows 95 machines lasers is scary enough as it is, but they're not online But if you need SMB one support, you can have it now the thing that did break The only problem I ran into is this and you may run into this as well You'll get an unboned local error variable bridge command. This is a problem with the jails now I Left one of my jails broken so I can walk you through what needs to happen to fix this problem It's an easy fix and it's related to a feature enhancement So they added more network features for the jails But some of your jails may not have a default network set because it's now a feature that didn't have anything in there So if I try to start this jail right here and start it should give me a That local bridge command not a sign Please note even though it's not running we make sure it okay It's definitely stopped because sometimes you get a weird the first thing is you try to edit it You get an error that it's running even though it's not running, but you have to edit this In a couple things that need to be done So I Turned DCP It's now stuck up cannot be changed with jails running So you know you've now seen the other side of this error message here They're aware of it. There's a of long place now. We got to stop the not running actually running jail What's running but it's not running and properly working then we can go back to edit this jail And there's two things I had to do to fix this So one the save button is broken because it sticks this here DCP not running delete that Then go down here to network properties Vnet default interface and choose whichever interface you have as the vnet Default interface for me at CXG be zero because we have this connected via a 10 gig card So this is where I want it and then hit save until you have to do to fix it So yes, it did cause problems so to speak because it had jails not running, but Just doing that fixes it and now the jail will get an DHCP address and be online enough and running and working So a minor problem, but I will leave a link to this that explains where to do it and you Watching this video hopefully figures out shows you how to do it as well It's a pretty simple thing there The only weird thing is a save button won't do it wouldn't click for me until I erased the DHCP in there That was right here But it has the IP address now But when it's not running they get stuck with DHCP there won't let you actually save it Other than that and that's a pretty minor flaw. I haven't had any other issues with the update I do recommend loading it. This like I said was a really minor issue that had a really easy fix I do like that they have a few other workarounds One of them was in ice guzzies because I have seen this before when I was doing some testing So they had some Not able to create ice guzzies skins Extents in the new UI as a workaround use of the jump to legacy This is still kind of a bug in there, but they're working towards it So if you're familiar with this they're actively addressing it, but it's not quite fixed yet So still the you know, the new UI like I said, I don't have a problem with it I still feel the back end of this system is very stable The front end is where some of the problems are and as you know, you so can get to the legacy UI If you have one of these Edge cases where you have to do something very specific in there, but overall I still recommend loading it But before you have a panic attack about your jails That's the easy workaround for jails. You don't need to revert back But I have covered this before the way free bsd and the way free nas updates It keeps a backup so you can just set to the other whether you've heard to as a slice and bsd Your previous install and roll back to it. So it creates a new Spot on the drive where it installs it So if you have to roll back you can just don't do anything to the zfs pools Because when you do update to a new version if it updates the zfs It will give you an option to upgrade the zfs and zfs can be upgraded but not easily rolled back or downgraded So if there's any feature changes, which I don't think there are in this particular This picture update didn't really make any major zfs changes But overall like I said, I loaded it um other than the one minor issue there It seems a little bit snappier when I go through it loads the Menus here a little bit faster. I still have this happening sometimes where it decides it doesn't like the reports That's been a flaw with this particular system, but not any of my demo systems I've tried so only my one production server does this problem and my guess is as someone pointed out It doesn't like my 10 gig network card The chelsea io network card as well because oddly when I switch this to another network interface, it doesn't do this But I don't know how to report as a bug because it works But it doesn't error out so and then sometimes it works perfectly fine and goes fast after it's been running for a little while So that's my only other minor But minor complaint because once again, I've talked about this before They still have and they updated again the net data that's in here and net data is still my favorite way to Look at all the stats. Not the basic ones there and They also made some updates in here to understand and have things report better So if you're interested in loading the update, it's available. Go ahead and download it and as always Please back up everything before you load any updates just in case everything goes wrong. All right.
