      To be honest most of the time the problem is other people messing around with my equipment.

      Hard wire and silicone.  ;D

        Ok.  I've had a number of units experience corruption after power failures and subsequently refuse to boot without a pave/reinstall (similar to #6340. So I'm looking for something more reliable to save on truck rolls—hopefully ZFS will be the ticket.

        While I'm on the subject of that corruption- I captured some debug output after the last time this happened (last week) which was from a 2.3.2 unit.  Is that worth sending in anywhere, or is this a known problem / no more info needed?

        redmine.pfsense.org  open a bug, attach files.  Thank you!

          Will do.  Does it matter if 2.3.2_1 has been released since then? I don't think any changes were made with regard to filesystem…..

              Have had those crash output files sitting on my laptop for a month and I got tired of seeing them staring back at me so I finally opened a redmine. Not sure they are relevant anymore now that we are a bit closer to ZFS + 2.4. But FWIW, https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6891

                  Curious if an upgrade path is in place yet?  :)

                    Set it to upgrade to 2.3.3, then upgrade, then set it to upgrade to 2.4, then upgrade

                        While 2.4 isn't alpha anymore, the following posts might help people upgrading from 2.3.X to 2.4.X:
