Yessir!

Hi all, Big news! I’m spending this weekend reviewing the preview build for our Q2 update (final sanity and bug checks). Did a cursory preview today with the team and they really knocked it out of the park! Next week this update will be live along with the ability to natively update the OS to 24.10.2.2 and we will also be publishing a new ISO for this build as well. Expect a blog with even more info. Just wanted to share this exciting news with everyone! I have a busy weekend ahead of me….

Weekend testing went great! Documented a handful of bugs/issues that the team is actively squashing this week. Still hoping to publish the release by Friday, but we reserve the right to postpone till Monday if necessary. Here's a sneak peak at pool customization (drive selection) in the wizard: You'll notice in the background next to the "Continue" button that we have the option to "Skip" now! This will let users get into the dashboard without configuring any storage pools. This will enable the ability to adopt existing pools from TrueNAS SCALE itself (and other platforms).

I was able to skip making a storage pool in initial setup even without the Q2 update. Maybe you can check

Yes, a one drive pool, but also with a warning. I like it!

No need to reinstall from the iso. When the update is out you’ll just see it when you login to deck. The OS update can then be applied from within the deck and all it will require when done is a restart of the server.

It is a must these days to have TailScale support, especially for secure remote access. It is far too easy to mess up a WireGaurd/OpenVPN Config, if the goal is security and simplicity, Tailscale VPN access should be a high priority.
