Need help with recovering a system... - Lemmy.World

So today, my TrueNAS scale boot drive bit the bullet, throwing a “boot pool is read only error”/not showing up in the BIOS from time to time… Now, usually that wouldn’t be a big deal except that I don’t have any images of that install and my ZFS pools aren’t exported… What should I do?

Export the configuration is step one. Step two is to replace the drive. You probably don’t need to reinstall but having the exported config will make it easier if you do.

I don’t think that’s possible if they don’t have a working boot drive.

Oh I misread. They would need to do a ZFS only mount from a different device and then manually replace it.
