    @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.

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.

    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.

    Yes. But not that device because it's SATA. The 4200 only supports NVMe drives.

    I would reinstall 25.07 clean and restore the config into it if you have any doubt. As long as you have the config file and a recovery image on a memstick you will be able to recover so I would probably try upgrading first. The Device Tree Blob (DTB) is a file that ARM devices use to define the hardware present to the OS. The DTB file is present in the EFI System Partion (ESP). It's loaded into from there memory and passed to the OS by uboot.

    @marcosm @stephenw10 Yes, I tried a power brick with a similar power rating as an initial troubleshooting step.

    The uboot commands sound somehow familiar to me, but actually I cant remember if I needed to do so. I cant even remember which version of pfSense was the curretn at this time when adding the m.2 SATA, 21.x or 22.x? Regards

    Yup it's a display issue if the system creates a log entry with no host name: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15411 You can just wait for the offending entry to move off the displayed logs.
