    @mwatch Hi All. I just completed a new HA install on two 8300 MAX boxes, and I’ll hand it to Netgate (and its OEM) - these are REALLY REALLY nice boxes compared to any of the former higher-end appliances. For the first time the look, feel and hardware really has become proper enterprise grade. Very solid build, excellent design, two proper power supplies and enough interfaces by default really knocks it out of the park. It’s not cheap, but it is also in intirely different leagues than the 1537/1541 before it.

    @stretch1931 said in Useful resources for new appliance owners: lights and what they mean They do: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/io-ports.html#led-patterns also https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/factory-reset.html On the 6100 it does do a config reset, vs some models it's just a hardware reset/boot. Frustration understood. :) I suggest creating a new thread per issue so it's easier for people to notice. The forum is pretty active with several dev/admin/support folks from Netgate also, especially in this Netgate hardware forum.

    Yes, if you have RAM disks enabled (not default) then you will lose any logs that have not been backed up if the unit spontaneously reboots. If it loses power for example.

    @EG said in Netgate SG-4860 Fan Replacement: @d83 I just had to do this, the FOXCONN 5010 PVA050C12Q was a direct replacement. $4.92 on Ebay. Supposedly rated for Service life: 50000 hours, but I'll have to get back to you on that. Thanks, I expect an update in 5.7 years! Lol

    It pretty much has to be reporting incorrectly there since that's what the gui uses but it would be good to confirm.

    Yup the slot is B-Keyed to allow fitting wifi devices. Most NVMe devices are M-Keyed only. So you need an NVMe drive that is M+B Keyed to fit. You could potentially use a B-Keyed NVMe drive but I've never seen one of those.

    @w0w Thanks very much for the details/info. I will look through it and see if they say anything about mitigation. It does not matter whose fault it is. It still reflects badly on Netgate, too.

    If you think ACB was configured I can check for recent backups if you send me the NDI of the failed 1100 in chat.

    Tangentially, Proxmox has a few ways to assist with that. See https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-sysadmin.html#network_pin_naming_scheme_version and the next few sections in the document.

    Just as a followup, I have been unable to solve this issue, and it happens with two different 2100’s. So the workaround for now is to use mvneta0 as the uplink to the switch carrying multiple VLANs in a 802.1q trunk (leaves the builtin 5 port switch out of the inter VALN routing). At some point I will try with another managed switch model to see if it’s the specific Switch/SG-2100 combination only, or a general issue.

    Well you obviously you shouldn't need to so I'd hope to see some error logged that tells us what's happening. But I would try installing it as UFS if it still fails with ZFS. That will rewrite the partition tables. If that does work then try installing ZFS again.

    Mmm, I don't think that is the same issue. Your device is rebooting but fails to find a boot device. That bug refers to a failure mode where it never tries to reboot after shuting down. Though it's clearly similar.

    @froussy said in Netgate 7100 with SFP+ module: server room at 17 degree celcius? My room is about 23c and mine was getting in the high 80's. With the fan it is in the mid 60's. So for you, a solid maybe, watch the temps.
