Web GUI hangs when Linux partitions are present

[tuaris]

I installed the 9.3.0.2 - Nayla (revision 1391) version on some old hardware. A P4 i386 server with 4GB of RAM that I had laying around. The disk controller is a Areca 1120 SATA controller with 4 channels. In the first two I have 2x Western Digital WD2003FYPS-27Y2B R001 drives. The controller is set to JBOD mode and I setup a ZFS mirror. It works fine.

I decided to take a 32 GB SSD that I had sitting around and use it as a ZIL and L2ARC. I plugged it into the 3rd channel, booted up, and click to go to the "Disk Management" screen. Here the web GUI hangs indefinitely. There are no errors in the system log and the console responds just fine.

I tried this a few times with the same result.

Using gpart show da2 on the console, it turns out that the SSD had some Linux partitions on it. I did gpart destroy -F da2 to remove them, rebooted, and went back to the GUI. This time the "Disk Management" screen loaded correctly and I was able to continue adding the disks.

Hmm, I am also seeing it hang with 'smartctl '

Code: Select all

 2842 root            1 103    0 10948K  3140K CPU0    0 144:51 100.00% smartctl -i -d areca,1 /dev/arcmsr0

I don't have it enabled on any disk. I have to log in via SSH and kill the process.
