ZFS zpool mirror 24.03.r.20240410.1729

Were you able to get any more error data from this? Still seeing it in todays RC build?
-
@stephenw10 Yes, I just upgraded and I am still seeing the same issue where I cannot boot after the upgrade on a ZFS mirror. I am not sitting by the firewall, but I will grab a pic of the error as it makes it to the pfSense boot selection options, but halts there after.
-
Ok digging.....
-
@stephenw10 As a side note, the mirroring didn't have a problem till the 4/10 image. The prior one on 3/22 did not have this issue with the booting.
-
Are interesting. Are you booting UEFI?
-
@stephenw10 If memory serves me correctly, I think I am using uefi, but I can check when I make it back home later today to confirm.
-
@stephenw10 I am attaching the screenshot of the boot sequence where it hangs. I have to press 6 then the kernel becomes kernel.old and I can boot the firewall.
Attached Upgrade.txt is my upgrade from 23.09.1 to 24.03.r.20240416.0005
Also doesn't seem to matter on if I use legacy or UEFI, the boot locks up at exactly the same place each time.
The system is the Super Micro C2758 systems that the store used to sell.
-
Ah so it appears to upgrade OK but just fails to boot past the loader. Hmm....
-
@stephenw10 Is there anything I can add to the configuration/boot to allow higher detail to maybe give an idea on what it's hanging up on?
-
You could try booting in verbose mode from the loader prompt (
boot -v) but I doubt it will show anything extra.The upgrade log looks fine too.
-
Can I assume it was booting UEFI in 23.09.1?
Do you have the serial console enabled/connected on that device?
-
@stephenw10 Yes, I was in UEFI when I was upgrading, just didn't grab another screen shot from IPMI to reflect that
Unfortunately I'm using the serial port for a GPS timesink
-
What version was this originally installed as? When the ZFS mirror was created?
-
@stephenw10 I backed up the config and rebuilt it as there were issues prior to 23.09 so once that was released, I backed up my configuration and reloaded it. I know I had problems on 23.01 with ZFS.
-
Hmm, so it was a clean 23.09 install?
-
@stephenw10 I am sorry, I was thinking of my SG-1100. I looked back on my history, so the last time this was rebuilt is on my post before with 2.6
I was able to replicate it twice after the reload. If you do a setup with 2.6 on the device, upgrade it to plus pushing it into 22.01, then do the upgrade to 22.05, and finally upgrade to the latest snapshot, I was able to wreck the EFI ZFS booting on the firewall.
-
Hmm, but since then you were able to upgrade to 23.09.1 OK? And in fact to the last public beta image of 24.03 OK?
Also when this fails you are booting the old kernel to get access to the system, then rolling back the ZFS snapshot?
This feels like a UEFI quirk with the upgraded boot-loader. Though if the old kernel boots using the new loader that refutes that.
-
@stephenw10 I am only able to boot with the kernel.old after upgrade. When I do this, it rolls it back to the last successful upgrade which was 3/22. I rolled it manually back by selecting the star to 23.09.1 as my primary snapshot now. I had tried the upgrade to 24.03.r.20240410.1729 and any prior snapshot that was released worked up until the pause on builds till the 4/10 image where the issues started.

Ah you mean it automatically rolls back the BE snapshot because it failed to boot into the RC?
-
@stephenw10 Yes that is correct
