  1. Welcome to the iXsystems Software Development issue tracker. You may select a project and file bug reports or feature requests for the following projects: FreeNAS / TrueNAS For ALL HARDWARE or PRODUCT issues go to iXsystems Product Support Ticketing system.
  2. TrueOS (formerly PC-BSD or PCBSD) is a discontinued Unix-like, server-oriented operating system built upon the most recent releases of FreeBSD-CURRENT. Up to 2018 it aimed to be easy to install by using a graphical installation program, and easy and ready-to-use immediately by providing KDE SC, Lumina, LXDE, MATE, or Xfce as the desktop environment.
  3. We have an iXSystems FreeNAS operating in our network, with SMB shared folders assigned to specific users. Those users were able to connect to write to the shared folders, from our laptops. Back then, our Windows 10 were only AAD-registered. Now we have transitioned everybody to MDM (Intune) enrollment, joining all laptops to AAD in the process.
  4. A laptop even stripped down is not a good idea to use with FreeNAS, PERIOD. As a test bed fine but to keep data safe NO. This is especially true with ZFS and the recommendation for ECC ram with the laptop will not support and your previous system did not have. But you can feel free to do as you wish, lots of people do.

iXsystems, Inc. is a privately owned American computer technology company based in San Jose, California that develops, sells and supports computing and storage products and services. Its principal products are customized open sourceFreeBSDdistributions, including the discontinued desktop operating systemTrueOS (formerly PC-BSD),[1] the FreeBSD based file servers and network attached storage systems TrueNAS Core (previously FreeNAS) and TrueNAS Enterprise, and the Linux based TrueNAS SCALE. It also markets hardware platforms for these products, and develops enterprise-scale storage architectures and converged infrastructures. As part of its activities, the company has strong ties to the FreeBSD community, has repeatedly donated hardware and support to fledgling projects within the BSD community,[2] and sponsors and develops development within FreeBSD, as well as being a sponsor and attendee of open-source community events.

History[edit]

iXsystems was founded in 1991 as Berkeley Software Design, Inc. (BSDI, later BSDi) by Rick Adams and members of the University of California, BerkeleyComputer Systems Research Group (CSRG), including Keith Bostic, Kirk McKusick, Mike Karels, Bill Jolitz and Donn Seeley.[3] In the year 2000, Berkeley Software Design, Inc. acquired enterprise server manufacturer Telenet System Solutions, Inc.,[4][5] which was founded in 1996 and operated from the same San Jose, California office and manufacturing facility that iXsystems operates today. In 2001, BSDi sold its operating systems business to Wind River Systems and spun off its hardware business and iXtreme[6] line of servers as iXsystems, Inc.[7] In 2002, OffMyServer, Inc., owned by two BSDi employees, acquired iXsystems, Inc.[8] and operated it as OffMyServer, Inc. until restoring the iXsystems name in 2005.

In 2006, iXsystems adopted the PC-BSD[9] project and hired its founder, Kris Moore. In 2007, iXsystems acquired FreeBSD Mall, Inc., reuniting all the portions of the original BSDi that had been spun off to Wind River Systems. In 2009, iXsystems negotiated to continue the FreeNAS project when its developers decided to move it to DebianLinux. iXsystems introduced a comprehensive rewrite of FreeNAS in 2011 which now provides the platform for the 'FreeNAS Mini' SMB NAS arrays and 'TrueNAS' enterprise storage arrays. In August 2010, BSD author Dru Lavigne joined iXsystems and in July 2013, Jordan K. Hubbard,[10] one of the founders of the FreeBSD project,[11] joined iXsystems as CTO.[12]

Products and services[edit]

Asigra has been backing up and, more importantly, enabling the restoration of data since 1986. In the past, Asigra has worked with a global network of IT service providers to deliver Asigra Cloud Backup as a public, private, and/or hybrid solution—but recently Asigra teamed up with iXsystems to offer Asigra’s software to the multitude of FreeNAS and TrueNAS users.

Servers[edit]

iXsystems designs, sells and supports custom x86 servers for workgroups through data centers with a focus on support for the FreeBSD operating system. The company relies on partnerships with hardware vendors Intel, Supermicro, Western Digital and LSI Corporation combined with on-staff FreeBSD developers. All iXsystems servers are subjected to a three-day burn-in process to reduce returns and are available with Linux as an alternative operating system.

TrueNAS[edit]

TrueNAS is the brand for ixSystems' open source network attached storage platform. It includes:

  • TrueNAS CORE (previously FreeNAS) - a free file server and expandable platform based on FreeBSD
  • TrueNAS Enterprise - an enterprise file server for commercial use, also based on FreeBSD
  • TrueNAS SCALE - a Linux based hyperconverged version of the TrueNAS platform, under development as at January 2021.
  • TrueNAS branded hardware - enterprise storage arrays, a network-attached storage (NAS) systems, storage area network (SAN) devices, and High Availability systems, with up to 10 petabytes raw capacity.

The FreeNAS project was originally launched by third party developers in October 2005 and aimed to create an open sourcenetwork attached storage system based on FreeBSD 6.0. In September 2009, the development team concluded that the project, then at release 0.7, required a complete rewrite to accommodate modern features such as a plug-in architecture, and the project gradually forked, with a new version based on DebianLinux, and the existing version being transferred to iXsystems,[13][14] who rewrote it with a new architecture based on FreeBSD 8.1, releasing FreeNAS 8 Beta in November 2010.[15]

On November 19, 2010, iXsystems released FreeNAS 8 Beta, its first release of the popular free and open-sourcesoftware-defined storage project that it adopted and rewrote. FreeNAS is based on the FreeBSDoperating system and the OpenZFS file system.

On Aug 3, 2011, iXsystems introduced the TrueNAS[16] line of enterprise storage arrays, a network-attached storage (NAS) system and storage area network (SAN) device that supports the SMB, AFP, NFS, iSCSI, SSH, rsync and FTP/TFTP sharing protocols over Ethernet and Fibre Channel network fabrics. TrueNAS also supports vendor-certified protocols including VMware VAAI, Microsoft CSV, ODX, and VSS, and Veeam. A custom, tool-less enclosure provides TrueNAS High Availability using dual controllers, and four user-serviceable components: disks, power supplies, fans and the controllers themselves. TrueNAS uses the OpenZFS file system in hybrid and all-flash configurations up to 10 petabytes in raw capacity.

On March 15, 2020, iXsystems announced the merging of FreeNAS and TrueNAS into a unified product with two editions.[17]TrueNAS CORE would be the rebranded continuation of FreeNAS, as a free, open-source option, and TrueNAS Enterprise would continue as a paid, closed-source option with additional enterprise-focused features.[18] Additionally a Linux port of TrueNAS was under development, to be known as TrueNAS SCALE.

FreeNAS Certified[edit]

The iXsystems FreeNAS Certified[19] line of small and medium-sized enterprise storage arrays are designed to run the FreeNAS storage operating system and are available in 1U, 2U and 4U configurations.

TrueNAS Mini and Mini XL[edit]

The iXsystems TrueNAS Mini[20] line of SOHO storage arrays are designed to run the TrueNAS storage operating system and are available in 4 bay and 8 bay configurations.
