Key Highlight:

This is a hotpatch to fix an issue that prevents some TrueNAS CORE systems from migrating to SCALE 22.12.4.1:

• NAS-124623 - error with home directory handling on migration from TrueNAS CORE.

Note under 22.12.4.2:

If you encountered this issue when attempting to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1, run the command mkdir /home in the TrueNAS CORE web interface shell and re-apply the upgrade.

Otherwise, users that intend to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12 (Bluefin) can directly migrate to the 22.12.4.2 hotfix release to avoid this issue.

Key Highlights:

This is a small hotpatch designed to address a reported bug from the 22.12.4 release and updates Samba to the v4.17.12 security update:

• Fix for HDD temperature reporting (NAS-124452)

EDIT UPDATE:

Known Issue: An issue was found after 22.12.4.1 was released that disrupts migrations from CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1 due to how the /home directory is handled during the update process (NAS-124623). If you encountered this issue when attempting to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12.4.1, run the command mkdir /home in the TrueNAS CORE web interface shell and re-apply the upgrade.

Otherwise, users that intend to migrate from TrueNAS CORE to SCALE 22.12 (Bluefin) can directly migrate to the 22.12.4.2 hotfix release to avoid this issue.

Key Highlights

• Users with active or enabled deprecated services in 22.12.4 are alerted to address these deprecated features before attempting to upgrade to a new TrueNAS SCALE major version.

• WebDAV share creation is disabled NAS-122280. The related WebDAV application is available instead.

• Samba updated to 4.17.0 NAS-123131.

• Numerous security updates.

• Replication hotfix from ZFS 2.1 update NAS-123123.

• New option in replication tasks for the destination dataset to inherit encryption from its parent dataset NAS-121898.

Apologies for delay on this post, my notification's bot for TrueNAS crashed.

Key Highlights:

This is a small hotpatch to address a ZFS issue that appears in specific circumstances with encrypted ZFS replication tasks. When the replication source system is updated to SCALE 22.12.3, a mismatch in indirect block size (IBS) values can cause kernel panics when an encrypted replication task attempts to receive ZFS snapshots to the destination system. See OpenZFS 2.1 Pull Request #15073 for more details.

Users are encouraged to update any TrueNAS SCALE system used as a replication source or destination to 22.12.3.3 to avoid this issue. It is also recommended to update any ZFS-based systems currently used as a replication destination.

22.12.3.3 Changelog

• NAS-122583 Crash on ZFS replication receive with different indirect block size

Key Highlights:

This is a small hotpatch to prevent an edge-case issue from occurring when Active Directory is faulted on High Availability (HA) systems.

22.12.3.2 Changelog

• NAS-122689 Prevent database replication when alembic versions do not match
• NAS-122693 Allow sysdataset move if AD is faulted

Key Highlights:

This is a small hotpatch designed to resolve issues with PCI passthrough to Virtual Machines, the order in which system services are started, and an issue with error logging when upgrading a High Availability (HA) system from 22.12.3.

22.12.3.1 Changelog

• NAS-121919 Enable cgroup controllers at boot
• NAS-122456 Properly mark a PCI device as critical
• NAS-122491 Fix failover.send_file

Little late on posting this since it was released on the 06/13/23, but better late then never.

Key Highlights:

22.12.3 includes many new features and improved functionality that span new applications for deprecated services, change to SMB service, additional tools for troubleshooting, and web UI improvements. Changes include:

• New applications for deprecated SCALE services Dynamic DNS, TFTP, OpenVPN, WebDAV, rsync daemon, and S3 MinIO.
• Multichannel capabilities added to the SMB configuration form
• Updates to the Dashboard R50 image
• Updates to the latest Linux v5.15 kernel branch
• Update Samba to 4.17.8

This release fixes a bug with dataset encryption where it was possible to create an encrypted storage pool or dataset and unencrypted datasets within that pool or dataset. Beginning with 22.12.3, it is no longer possible to create an unencrypted dataset when the storage pool or dataset is created with encryption active. Datasets created in this manner are not affected by this fix. If the original intention was for the dataset to be encrypted, please migrate any data from the unencrypted dataset to a new encrypted dataset.

Important: An issue was discovered with virtualization post-release. When virtual machines with PCI passthrough are deployed, delay upgrading to 22.12.3. For details and resolution notes, see NAS-122456.

It's not mine, but this cheat sheet has been great to reference when learning new languages or coming back to old ones.

In regard to what's available, I've included a screenshot of their front page with an overview of the languages and software available.

What do you all use TrueNAS for? I'd love to hear how it's being used in other peoples systems!

Personally, I've got these apps installed and I love them all:

• cert-manager
• home assistant
• radarr
• 2x uptime kumas
• flame
• tailscale
• qbittorrent
• ombi
• jellyfin
• prowlarr
• sonarr
• traefik
• libreddit
• invidous
• static
• gitea

When I first saw this community I though it was related to Facebook and completely ignored it. Did anyone else do the same, and is there a way to make it more clear to new users and or is there currently something in place that I just completely missed that points it out?
