      We have not seen any stability issues on the particular hardware in the XG-7100, which is where we've tested it.

        @bendroid I have a ZFS filesystem as well. I had to do

        zfs set readonly=off zroot/ROOT/default
        

        and was able to mv files around. After making the changes, the property can be reset to default using,

        zfs inherit readonly  zroot/ROOT/default
        

        The pool properties out of the box are as follows (for reference),

        NAME   PROPERTY              VALUE                  SOURCE

          @trumee Thank you alot, but I circumvented that issue with using developer builds. It's stable anough for my home and you get to try new fancy features. If you don't havea productive environment, I can only recommend going with the developer builds.

            Did 2.4.4-snapshot already have the driver for X553 NICs of C3000 series from FreeBSD 11-stable/11.2-Release?

              Current 2.4.4 snapshots are built on FreeBSD 11.2-RC3. You should test one if you can The more testing they see the faster we can find any issues such as drivers not working with your hardware.

                @abcnew said in Intel X553 NICs (on C3758 SoC) not detected by pfSense 2.4/2.4.1:

                Yes, I have just installed the latest Devel Version (pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.4-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest) on a SuperServer 5019A-FTN4 and the network interfaces are working.

                  Is there a safe upgrade path from 2.4.4-snapshot to release version?

                    Yes, it should be a direct upgrade from a snap to stable once 2.4.4 is released. Just set the repo back to 'latest stable'.

                    However if you cannot afford the downtime of reinstalling you perhaps shouldn't be running a snapshot.

                      @stephenw10 I changed the system to 2.4.4 snapshots and received the following errors on first boot,

                      The zpool is missing some feature flags. Not sure whether this was the case with 2.4.3,

                      $zpool status

                      action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
                             the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
                             the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.

                        If you clear that and reboot do you see it again?
                        If not it was probably just temporary during the upgrade when those php libs are updated.
