      Well because we have a weird upstream connection, even though we are 'assigned' a /24 we are not truley being routed.  The ISP takes the .1 and uses for their hardware and we are essentially on a switch port off that.  Our firewall is .4 , and we create ~244 ipaliases for .10 - .254 so "1:1" NAT will work correctly. (The pfsense has to respond to arp requests.)

      So yes we manually fixed that, but would have been a PITA through webgui … we downloaded the config.xml , search/replaced, then restored it.

      As to my DNS/Routing issues, some further investigation shows even though under Interfaces->Wan ->IPv4 Upstream Gateway ... there is an entry.  From the command line, netstat -r , shows no default gw is defined.

      So somehow the upgrade completely screwed the routing table.  I assume it similar in the 'naming convention' used in the XML was changed but not properly updated.

      Any one have any thoughts on how to remotely fix that?  I think will have to drive to data center and delete the WAN and gateway config all together and create new ones.

        The config upgrade issues with VIPs are listed in the "Known regressions" on the release notes, and have been fixed for 2.3.1. But that only impacts things that use VIPs, there are no routing changes involved there. Closest thing to that could be gateway groups specifying CARP IPs if you have multi-WAN.

        Just having a gateway on WAN doesn't mean you have it marked as default. System>Routing, what do you have there? There were no config changes in gateways. Make sure the appropriate gateway is marked as default.

        The fact no gateways are shown at all for DNS servers is odd, that's a first. Knowing what's under System>Routing would be helpful.

            Ah … on edit screen "disable this gateway" was checked.  That was not how it was prior to up date though.

              The upgrade does not touch the gateways config at all, and nothing other than admin action will disable a gateway. That was disabled prior to upgrade. Check your config history, Diag>Backup/restore, Config History tab. If it goes back far enough you'll see that. Or if you got a config backup prior to upgrade, check that.

                Now getting crash report:

                [26-Apr-2016 19:50:39 America/New_York] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function gettext() in /etc/inc/rrd.inc on line 60

                And cpu usage seems to cycle between 12-30% , where previously was usually 5-10%

                    @sforsythe:

                    Now getting crash report:

                    [26-Apr-2016 19:50:39 America/New_York] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function gettext() in /etc/inc/rrd.inc on line 60

                    is the timestamp on that from the time when it was upgraded? Though that shouldn't generate a crash report, something like that would be expected post-upgrade but pre-reboot.

                    If check_reload_status is still chewing up that much CPU, get truss output on it. Assuming its PID is still 291, run:

                    truss -o /root/checkreload-truss.txt -p 291
                    

                    Let that run for about 10 seconds (it'll probably get big quckly), then hit ctrl-c. Then 'kill -9 291' to get rid of it and at least temporarily if not permanently fix that. Then if you can download that checkreload-truss.txt file and send it to me, email to cmb at pfsense dot org, with a link to this thread.

                      Hi cmb,

                      The time stamp was right after a reboot after re-enabling the 'default' gateway to see if would clean up any issues. 
                      The update was ~7days ago.  There have been a few crash reports since then which I did forward to dev team (via the gui request), but I did not save the text on those (fairly certain they were different)

                      I'll get the output requested emailed to you.

                      Thanks for taking a look.
                      shane

                          Update:

                          Issue seems related to HA Setup … Something in how the upgrade converted the CARP settings or the pfsync internals was causing network contention.

                          On both datacenters we were seeing this issue, when we use the remote APC to turn power off to the secondary units, after ~1 min downloads almost instantly improved.

                          Will need to goto the datacenter to investigate more....

                            When they are both up I would do an ifconfig on both systems to make sure the IP Aliases are only up on one system.  Maybe the IP Aliases are assigned to WAN instead of the CARP IP on one of your systems.  I did that on accident when I initially fixed mine from the upgrade bug.  I then realized I assigned them to WAN instead of my carp IP.  Worth a shot just in case anyway as I expect that to cause all kinds of crazy network issues if the IPs are up on both systems.

                              sforsythe: I replied back on your ticket but wanted to reply here as well to make sure you see it.

                              adam65535's theory sounds plausible. The fact that turning off the secondary makes the problem stop indicates a problem along the lines of an IP conflict, which is what the scenario he describes ends up being. It's something similar along those lines.
