General Discussion / Why can't I install plugins when there is an update available?

« on: January 17, 2024, 03:12:15 am »

OPNSense refuses to allow plugin or package installation if there is an update available.

Code: [Select]

***GOT REQUEST TO INSTALL***
Currently running OPNsense 23.7.10_1 at Wed Jan 17 15:08:10 NZDT 2024
Installation out of date. The update to opnsense-23.7.12 is required.
***DONE***
This is incredibly infuriating when the update requires a reboot and therefore extended change control and I'm stuck unable to implement something else until I've updated and rebooted.

Why is it like this?

General Discussion / Re: Second zpool not getting imported at boot time

Thank you. Apologies, I don't know how I missed that when I searched for answers.

I'll try export-and-reboot later tonight.

General Discussion / Second zpool not getting imported at boot time

« on: March 15, 2023, 09:53:08 am »

I've added a second zpool to my install and migrated /var to it. That part has worked fine, but when I reboot the second pool isn't being imported.

I can manually import the pool and mount everything on it, it's just not happening automatically at boot, even if the pool was imported and the filesystems mounted when the system was shutdown.

I don't know OPNsense's startup process all that well, but from what I can see, these lines in /etc/rc.d/zpool should do the trick (but they aren't).

Code: [Select]

for cachefile in /etc/zfs/zpool.cache /boot/zfs/zpool.cache; do
  if [ -r $cachefile ]; then
    zpool import -c $cachefile -a -N && break
  fi
done

Can someone please tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks
