    host console has strange background colors

    I've had this symptom on 2 separate fresh installs, that is 2 Intel SR1695 servers with 2 different monitors & 2 different vga cables.

    host console has strange background colors

    While not crucial, it is bothering me... see screenshot. This is a fresh install on older hardware, display is VGA. On every reboot of the host, the solid background color is a different one. I've had blue, green, yellow, red... you name it. Why is it doing this ?

    No ZFS Degraded Notifications

    There is no zfs log file. The script mentioned above _creates_ a log file, at /root/ZFS/ZFS-LOG.txt, but only if any problems were detected. If you edit the script to include the changes I proposed, then you will also get logging on problems in /var/log/syslog.

    No ZFS Degraded Notifications

    @ozgurerdogan , makes no sense to me because date: invalid date ‘errors on Sun Nov 8’ isn't an error message . Those lines, and in fact the entire script works just fine on a Proxmox system. So, once again, is what you pasted the exact and complete error message ? EDIT : did some more digging...

    [SOLVED] rsyslog.d conf files are ignored [AUTOSOLVED by MAGIC]

    EDIT : I went back into syslog, 45 minutes later... all looks as expected... rsyslogd seems to have taken a few minutes before actually using the new conf file. While trying to discard these log messages : Oct 18 12:12:00 pvex systemd[1]: Starting Proxmox VE replication runner... Oct 18...

    [solved] rpool silently fails to boot on 1 of 2 disks.

    just adding, both those drives were brand new, so whatever was on those SSDs came from the original Proxmox installation (which I had to wipe because that was easiest way to get back to a working system).

    [solved] rpool silently fails to boot on 1 of 2 disks.

    It is indeed solved (but unexplained), and I've now marked the thread accordingly. Those are another non-boot raidz1 pool. They didn't come into play. Correct, and I fail to understand how the system booted at all, since none of the rpool members had a boot partition. Although they both had a...

    [solved] rpool silently fails to boot on 1 of 2 disks.

    I can't any more, system has been re-installed from scratch since yesterday. fdisk showed just 2 partitions, where a fresh install shows 3 partitions on the rpool members, the boot partition being the crucial missing one I believe.
