    Hi,

    I updated a ZOTAC ZBOX CI325 nano Mini PC (the ones with the re0 NICs) from 2.5.2 > 2.6.0. Everything went well except that my Wireguard tunnels didn't come up automatically. I had to perform a reboot of the box as a restart of the tunnels from VPV>Wireguard did not bring them up.

      Upgraded to 2.6.0 with no glitch, very smooth process this time!

      Stopped short to do => 22.01 upgrade.
      The main reason I am not sure why I should do it.

      Wonder what other users do/think?

      Note - I am thinking to get a Nergate appliance just to support them, so far did not find a good option for my 4 port custom I5 mini PC replacement.

        @bob-dig What sort of problems? Slow WAN? I updated to 2.6 on Hyper-V (2022) and WAN speeds tanked (2Mb/1Mb down from 1Gb/200Mb). Unusably slow after an in-place upgrade or vanilla install. LAN speeds are normal.

          @boelter WAN-Speed is ok for me (full 250 MBits/s), inter (V)Lan communication is not usable. But someone else seems to have your problem, see here.

          @boelter said in To 2.6.0 and => 22.01 or not ? that is the question :):

          or vanilla install.

          Good to know, thanks.

            @boelter It's probably not your case, but I checked WAN speed on the wired box and a Windows VM on 1GB fiber and it seems actually better on 2.6.0
            FYI

                Just went from 2.5.latest to 2.6.0 then 22.01with no apparent issues.

                Hardware is a Dell Optiplex Desktop with a 1TB SSD (it's what I had at the time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so... )

                Other than forgetting to input my GELI password on the console during reboot it went fast and smooth.

                ZFS widget is nifty!

                Bunch of packages:

                Name Version
                acme 0.6.10_1
                arping 1.2.2_2
                arpwatch 0.2.0_6
                Backup 0.5_6
                bandwidthd 0.7.4_5
                Cron 0.3.7_5
                Filer 0.60.6_5
                iperf 3.0.2_5
                mtr-nox11 0.85.6_2
                nmap 1.4.4_2
                nut 2.7.4_10
                openvpn-client-export 1.6_4
                pfBlockerNG 2.1.4_26
                RRD_Summary 2.0_1
                Service_Watchdog 1.8.7_1
                Status_Traffic_Totals 2.3.2_2
                sudo 0.3_6
                tftpd 0.1.3_3
                WireGuard 0.1.6_1

                Wireguard was actually installed after upgrade.

                Houston, everything appears nominal...

                  Finally did 2.6.0 => 22.01 with no issues :)

                  I am still "afraid" to switch to ZFS, need to become brave and bite the bullet.

                    Hmmm, missing an indicator on the ZFS widget for individual filesystems that are RAM based. You know, non-critical ones like /var... Did I miss something?

                      On the dashboard page, scroll down to "Disks" and click the ">/" icon. You should see /tmp and /var using filesystem tmpfs.

                        @bpsdtzpw I have a ZFS root, what "Disks" section?

                        Here's my "zfs list":

                        [22.01-RELEASE][USER@MYSYSTEM]/home/USER: zfs list
                        NAME                 USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
                        zroot               88.0G   772G    96K  /zroot
                        zroot/ROOT          1.95G   772G    96K  none
                        zroot/ROOT/default  1.95G   772G  1.95G  /
                        zroot/reservation     96K   858G    96K  /zroot/reservation
                        zroot/tmp            120K   772G   120K  /tmp

                        I've tried to upload a screenshot, but it keep erroring on post.login-to-view

                            @stephenw10 OK I found the disks widget, for some reason it disappeared off my dashboard during the upgrade. Weird.

                            Why on earth would you NOT include basically the output of “zfs list” in the ZFS widget? I’m a ZFS fan, don’t mind me… :-)

                              Well it basically shows 'zpool status'. Feature requests welcome. 😉

                                    It's inside the System Information section, at the bottom of the column, not separate.
