TrueNAS has always been a great file server, but wasn't built with virtualization support in mind. With TrueNAS Scale, that's about to change.
But first... What am I drinking???

@evolution1565 2 года назад

The AHCI Emulation does not limit speeds, it just emulates the storage calls. So, you can go over 6gbps. Similarly, it is theoretically possible to go over 1Gbps on the Intel e1000 virtual NIC. If you transfer data between VMs, you will probably see it break 1Gbps since the data only goes through server memory. That said, in most cases VirtIO is faster and has a lower performance penalty.

I installed Scale a week ago for the first time, thanks for the heads up on the VM section, answered a few questions I had. Good work.

@Paulnt04 2 года назад

One correction: Emulated AHCI is not limited to 6Gbps. Early PCIe SSDs were AHCI instead of NVMe. It just introduces the overhead of emulated AHCI storage calls instead of block level access.

@nmihaylove 2 года назад

He makes similar claim about emulated NICs which I also assume is false. Of course, they have higher overhead, but they are not limited to 1Gbps.

Do really want to see a VirtIO video. Especially with windows server 2022. (I think the NIC driver was not compatable last time I tested it.) For way TrueNAS VM not use dynamic memory, I think it's mostly due to ZFS Cache. Unlike most hypervisor which always have free memory, ZFS will comsume all the memory for caching then VM will need to keep swap shared memory with ZFS that could cause performance issue.

@questionablecommands9423 2 года назад

True (mostly (extremely (very)) boring) story: The only reason why I have a homelab is because I decided to build a FreeNAS 10 host because I thought corral looked rad and because I could run most of my workloads in provided Docker support. In the time between me ordering my hardware and receiving my hardware, it was announced that corral would no longer be a thing. Then I realized I ordered LGA2011 v4 CPUs (which I didn't _want_ to return) and a v2 mobo (which I _couldn't_ return) so I did the only logical thing and ordered a v4 mobo and v2 CPUs ... the LGA2011v2 rig ended up being my FreeNAS 11 rig and the v4 a XCP-ng rig, but with TrueNAS Scale, it's looking like I can go back to that original single host dream. Heck! With that GPU passthrough, I can even have a Windows VM I can RDP into so I can continue to pretend to know how to use Fusion 360!

I’m in the same boat. Been on FreeNAS/TrueNAS Core for probably 8 years. Learned more than I’d ever thought I’d learn about BSD (as a rank amateur of course). Switching to Linux based sounds awesome for compatibility, as I’ve spent loads of time getting some simple things running in BSD jails. Migrating or redoing my jails to VMs in Scale sounds like a pain!

I'll stick with Proxmox for most of my VMs, but I do have a few simple services running in TrueNAS VMs. Mostly things that interact with the NAS directly. Mainly a torrent seedbox for my uh...

@greenconscious210 2 года назад

Jeff, you're mixing up virtio and SRV-IO. Virtio devices and drivers are just simplified and more efficient ways for the guest and host OS" to communicate rather than emulating real hardware. The guest needs to have drivers to use it but there isn't anything special needed on the host. SRV-IO is virtualization built into the underlying hardware device that exposes multiple logical endpoints to the host that it can then pass through to guests. The guest then talk directly to the hardware's special guest logical endpoints, but it does require some cooperation from the host OS' drivers to function. It also completely prevents migrating a VM to a different host or any fancy networking or storage shenanigans that the host OS' might support. So no software bridges, VPN tunnels, LVM or ZFS snapshots, etc. It should be faster on the high end, but boy what a price to pay.

@lestathus 2 года назад

its Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), not SRV-IO, and there are ver few HW outside NICs supporting it. VFs (virtual functions) are then passed through the host OS to the guest, just like with normal PCI devices. IT also means same limitations apply as to any other PCI passthrough VM would.... where it really make sense is high performance networking, usually acompanied by DPDK based software implementation for routers, LBs etc..

@stucorbishley 2 года назад

This is great, I’ve been a FreeNAS/TrueNAS user for 12 years, and the bhyve based hypervisor was always a ‘not ideal’ feature. I mean using it for what it’s good at has (as you pointed out regarding seeing your family) been why it’s been a permanent fixture in my house for so long - outlasting all general Linux setups in terms of long term use. But Scale has been probably the most exciting release for me, having the k3s and docker deployment and the option of kvm virtualisation - while maintaining the ‘set and forget’ style of TrueNAS is so great. Would love to see more of taking advantage of Scale.

I've been using TrueNAS Scale as my hypervisor for a few weeks now. I was able to get a Windows VM with GPU passthrough running after some trial and error. Two things about TrueNAS Scale that are still bothering me: It doesn't automatically create a network bridge so that VMs can access other services of the hypervisor, and with the built in OpenVPN Server there doesn't seem to be a way to create a VPN tunnel where my iOS device can connect with VPN and see other hosts on my network, it can only see services of the TrueNAS server. I know one could use static routes on their network gateway, but mine doesn't have that feature and I'm not ready to rebuild my network.

@talideon 2 года назад

I think the whole "fixed" element of VMs on TrueNAS goes back to it originally being built off of VirtualBox. Most of the issues with it could've been fixed by migrating to just about any other virtualisation solution, but as you said, it was never meant to be a platform for VMs. The FreeBSD → Linux "move" is just a flavour though, to appeal to management types who, in the past, would've been than the "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" camp.

@marcogenovesi8570 2 года назад

The FreeBSD to Linux move has been done because that way they get KVM hypervisor, docker containers, a bunch of cluster filesystems and a lot better hardware compatiblity. TrueNAS Scale has done more progress towards their "vision" for Truenas in a year than Truenas (on BSD) has done in 10 years, mostly because all those things are already turnkey on linux ecosystem

proxmox works great and easy to setup and you can actually run OMV in VM which already for years runs on debian, but now TrueNas Scale is debian its worth to keep an eye on it, but i still love proxmox so will be hard to switch, TrueNas would need to step up the game first for the VM settings.
