I have just shy of 8TB of data on my home file server.

That's not including my NVR (for security cameras) which has a single 6TB SATA drive sitting around 40% capacity.

I had a single red 2TB in an old tivo roamio for almost a decade.

Pulled out this weekend, and finally tested it. Failed.

I was planning to move my 1.5T music collection to it. Glad I tested it first, lol.

My folks had a tape backup system in the late 1990s. It used 250MB tapes.

They've been around for decades.

No, but I have downloaded yours.

zfs list shows datasets.

zpool list shows pools.

mirror is a type of pool.

Winwar 2 was based on a dos version of it, btw. I played it all the time with some friends back in the early 1990s.

You sure that's what is happening, and it's not just mounting a different snapshot/dataset being mounted "on top" ?

I've seen it happen, which is why I ask. Assume the root dataset is named pool0 and has set0 set1 and set1/set2 as child datasets.

Their mount points are as follows:

/pool0/set0

/pool0/set1

/pool0/set1/set2

Now, if somehow, say set2 gets unmounted.temporarily, and you save files to /pool0/set1/set2 while the data set is not mounted, it'll actually put those files in the set1 dataset, under the set2 directory.

But, when you mount the pool0/set1/set2 dataset again, the files under the set1 dataset are hidden by the set2 child.

Am I explaining it well enough for you to follow along?

Make sure you don't have some similar situation by temporarily unmounting any nested datasets and ls'ing their mount points.

Very. It's like molasses.

Which is why I said "in theory"

My network actually ran better when my OpnSense was virtualized on a Proxmox server running atop a Dell Optiplex 790 MT from like 2013, than it is currently on a bare metal Sophos SG-135v2.

But that is because the sophos has 8 ports. And all 8 are a separate interface, so to use them as a switch requires bridging 7 of the 8.

And that slows things down tremendously. I really just need an 8 port switch in there, I guess.

The upshot is, the sophos came with rack mounts.

Well.. in theory, that particular line is just saying data shouldn't be political....

cries in broke

I have 4x3TiB drives in a currently-degraded RAIDZ1 due to a hard drive failure. I have a replacement coming, and my fingers are crossed that I don't lose another drive beforehand.

I tried tdarr, but have issues using more than one node. I may just wind up installing docker on my more powerful desktop specifically for tdarr, instead of on the proxmox server I have without a real gpu. (It's a Xeon Supermicro board with their onboard VGA)

By your logic then, capitalism is great, because that means no one would've engineered these crazy locks but instead just used the tried and true ones.

Wait. That's not what happened?

Oh.

I actually had to force it via the CLI.

        ha core update


  

That didn't work either, I had to manually specify the version:

        ha core update --version 2025.7.0


  

Is there some trick to getting this installed? My HAOS instance (x64 generic) has no updates pending despite refreshing by clicking "Check for updates" in the android app....

Oh no. Of course not.

We can't actually show ways to defeat government overreach, we can only allude to its existence!

Good.

Hell, windows itself does it.

I can tell you that Mediacom cable will cut your service off for it, and you have to call in and get scolded before they turn it back on.

And, if it happens 3 times, your service is disconnected permanently.
