Yes you can ignore it for now. I beleive we fixed this in dev but not sure when it will be pushed out. Might come with a host of other things.

I'm not on the apps team, but I think that if the app you are installing is popular in the TrueNAS catalog, it will probably have a curated app at some point. It could be days or months from now. We don't publish them because things happen like last week where we were about to publish the app and found out the app itself has a problem with it. If you want an app today that you don't have and you feel capable or want to spend the time on it, then just follow the Nike slogan and JUST DO IT! Learning how to use TrueNAS is a great thing for the crew who is in our forums. The ones who like to be in here are likely the ones who can figure this out and make themselves better for it. If we come out with a curitaed version, well that's just part of playing the game. We want this to help people who need it most. So, things like gaming server apps come after the other apps that are more geared to replace the Googles, Apples, Netflix, and so on that have monthly fees. When it comes to the vision of the product, we have so many opportunities that it's just the time to implement it with our small team. We've already said buddy backups are next and it's coming this year. Then VMs, and once that is done we have a list to choose from. Sometimes things change so we don't want to say this is what's next. TrueNAS went back and forward with how they ran the vms over the last few years, which is why we pushed it.

Had another meeting with IX (TrueNAS) and they take owership that it's their issue. They think it is somewhat resolved in TrueNAS version 26 but we gave them users diag files they submitted to use plus screenshots we took during troubleshooting. We see an issue with it and IPv6 that we informed them about. They have our ticket. We'd like to get this resolved as well.

if you go into truenas and go into apps then select hexos and then edit there should be a setting called LOCAL_TN_PORT and just change that to whatever you set truenas' HTTPS port to

I'm not sure which apps are on the list but I'm not aware of any that are Game Servers as of yet.

Power on could be from an other device with Wake-on-LAN or within the BIOS. Spinning down is a pain. It doesn't work for me anymore since TrueNAS removed S.M.A.R.T settings. Shutdown is the easiest: A cronjob I write about my journey in this blog post: https://www.crazy-memorys.ch/IfixedIT/?p=476

Everything may last longer when you keep them in within a certain temp range. I've seen a lot of things over time for hard drives. The issue the better you cool the drives the more you give up. In data centers fans are running full speed most the time. In a house you usually don't want all that noise. We like hot swap bays so it's easy to replace a drive but that means you got drives right next to each out sharing all the head each drive make. I've seen 5 inch drive bay adapters for hard drive that turn a 3.5 inch drive into a 5 inch size drive which is 1.5 inches of heat sync around the drive to give the drive the best way to cool down with air cooling. I've purchased it and ran it in a server for years like this. You can't have this and make it hotswapable. Had to shutdown the server and open it up and unscrew it all to replace drives. I didn't have any fail which is the point of it but when increasing the size you have a lot more work to do. Thanks for posting your request. If there was a tool like this we'd think about adding it. Thanks

Follow up, @shpligthe updated driver's removed support for non-RTX cards as I understood so 10xx series and below no longer work with containers/apps but should still work with virtual machines because you install the drivers in the virtual machine and just have to make sure the card is passed through. @CosmoI am hoping the TrueNAS 26.1 update will address my specific card compatibility. A thread on the TrueNAS forum seems to suggest that NVidia driver 570. 172.08 is what shipped with Goldeye 25.10 and comparing that against the earliest Linux driver for the 5060 Ti on the NVidia website shows a driver version of 570.211.01. Long story short, I think this card just missed the boat on support but according to a recent TrueNAS blog post 26.1 adds NVidia driver 590.48 which means it'll definitely be supported on the next major HexOS release

With all the other apps curated so far it would be awesome to see nginx curated for DNS and HTTPS resolving. It already exists in truenas scale as Nginx Proxy Manager. This would allow hex os users to access their apps externally without VPN hosting, to resolve DNS requests and utilize https.

So I use a host vpn on my firewall/router to remotely access my server (I have never used tailscale but I think it does the same thing, right?). With nginx+DNS registar+SSL cert you would not need to host a vpn you could could acess it like other website. The use case for example is for non-tech savi remote family members who do not understand vpns or networking, they wouldn't have to fiddle with ovpn or wg files, or more accurately you wouldnt need to have to try to walk them through it over the phone. Your server services would work like any other website/app they are used to. Secondly there are some apps that I've found that https is a requirement.
