Introducing FreeNAS Corral
-
FreeNAS 10 has been renamed to FreeNAS Corral and is a major update for the software vendor. Big updates include a totally new, vastly more modern interface, support for Docker containers and bhyve VMs and a hyperconverged interface for these BSD-specific platforms.

@mlnews Are they going to add in a kitchen sink for the next release?
Somehow I don't see this becoming the next @scale.
I tried an install and it didn't even work. It's SO much more confusing than just using FreeBSD.

Why am I not so surprised by this?

Yesterday I installed on our XEN lab and it went in ok.
The interface is interesting. I didn't run the wizard but did click through the choices -- not too terrible to get used to.
I did change the update choice to stable and ran the update today. After restart, IPV4 had no binding when I did a show config, but the web interface answered in my browser. It wouldn't log in.
I ran renew, up, down and got the message that the interface wasn't configured for DHCP. I disabled IPV6 and still couldn't bind IPV4 to the XN0 interface. I didn't try a different NIC. I'm re-installing now and will run the wizard 1st and see what happens.
Praise be to labs.

Sounds like a usual day on SW.

Install ran fine for me. Essentially just typed in a password and picked an install location.

Kind of cool that you can get the cli right from the web interface.

Cockpit doesn't count because it's not out of the box. Which one are you talking about?

That's not a RedHat thing? I know I've played with installs of CentOS via a redirect across a wire.

Cockpit is fully installed and configured out of the box with a default install.

No it's not. I'm on a default install right now and I don't have it.

No. Only Fedora. Cockpit is not out of the box on RHEL. But is on Fedora.

How did you do that? I've done many. It's definitely there in a stock install. You had to modify it in some way to remove it.

Have you checked the Cockpit port to be sure it isn't there?

Oh are you talking about server? I don't have any Fedora servers running. That's probably the hangup. It's not default on workstation.
