The Hexos has now reached perfect status!
mill3000 replied to Brad896's topic in Coffee Talk (Off-Topic)
I'm happy we have met some of the need cases out there. There are more items we will be hitting shortly with Buddy Backups and then VMs as major items, along with more things in the UI to slowly require less TrueNAS UI. For me, I'll say the happy state will be after Buddy Backups and VMs. Also with the updates, TrueNAS should be pushing our fix on our Baba Yaga (websocat service issue) hopefully fixed in 25.10.7. We'll have the basics covered, and we can focus on addressing the need for the TrueNAS web UI. We can also then continue to build on all existing features, adding more depth to them. -

Mobius started following Special Vdev for metadata
-
I would only suggest fast ssds for metadata/special vdevs. The downside is that if that vdev fails you lose all the data on your pool regardless of redundancy. This is why I suggest a minimum of a double mirror for metadata/special vdevs. I've also heard that its not very useful for unless you have 10s of thousands of folders inside tens of thousands of folders. another drawback is that currently there is no good way to rebalance vdevs if you add the metadata vdev after already having data on your pool. however in the future once truenas 26 or 27 (I forget which) rolls out it should be possible.

Buddy backups were moved to a future version 1.1 release. you can check out our roadmap here https://docs.hexos.com/blog/2025-11-26 Its always a good idea to practice the 3-2-1 backup strategy You are welcome to voice questions/concerns/observations from the standpoint of this being a production product -

Rolling this back to the top of the list since I'm needing to give some love to my rack. Any thoughts from anyone would be awesome.

BigCheese started following Curated apps request: maintainerr
-
Hello, just want to start by saying I am loving my time with HexOS! This has been an absolute game changer, and my favorite part is being the Media guy for a few friends and family. That said, since HDD prices are out of this world right now, I stumbled across maintainerr.info and it sounds like the perfect tool to add to my current stack, in order to more easily make space for new media. My favorite part is the “leaving soon” feature. Love this idea! Hope others see the benefit of this application, as I think having this curated would be an immense help to maintaining storage hygiene. Thanks for reading!

August 20, 2026 - New App Curations (Ratelog & Swiparr)

Nice, i'll check it out. -

Ok, so I mean this sincerely and honestly, no joking this time. I thought you (well, maybe not you specifically) had said Local dashboard/command deck vs hosted and Buddy Backup where the line to declaring we had reached 1.0? I don't really care about either specifically but the admins were very vocal about keeping backups during the beta and cot calling HexOS production ready. So to be clear, you are ready to start taking questions/concerns/observations (if any) from the standpoint of this being a production product? I don't think that came from the Linus videos but I may be wrong. -

What happened that you're seeing this?
-
Totally understood. Also, when I say "users", I do mean my wife! :) And just cleaning it up so she doesn't have 6 mapped network drives. Small business type environments would probably have a lot less complexity than a home user doing multiple things, and have less pushback from their users because they get paid to deal with less-than-ideal UX.
-
No, not at this time. That seems like adding complexity we'd stay away from until we get all the major features out of the way. I know there seems to be many people who want to use this in a small business-type environment, which is great, but normal home users have been getting the short end of the stick win NAS software because every company has focused on business to make the big $$.
