#Sabnzbd freenas install#
Stop the sonarr jail, install the new plugin and start up the service. Under the System -> Backup menu, click the “Backup” button to create an up-to-date backup, then download it through the web UI. Sonarr has a handy backup feature, documented here. The more pressing concern at the moment was to get rid of the “Update Available!” message on the web interface. This method does not retain the download history/stats, but for my purposes I’m OK with that. Copy all of the contents from the backup into the new file in the plugin jail so that the permissions created by the initial startup are retained, then start the plugin and you’re good to go. Start up the plugin, so that it will create the new config file, then stop the plugin. From the FreeNAS web GUI, stop the old jail, and install the new plugin. extract the archive to the plugin jail, and fix permissions/ownershipįor completeness, and to further document my setup in case something goes very wrong in future, these steps are expanded out for each service below.Īll of the relevant configuration is stored in /var/db/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini, so first make a copy of that file.stop the jail, install and start the plugin.archive the settings within the current jail, storing it outside the jail.Most of these plugins require some variation on the same process: Just in case I missed something, I’m going to keep the old jails around for now, but set them to not autostart on system boot. The new plugins can then be used as a drop-in replacement of the old jails. I also changed the IP address of each of the old jails to avoid a conflict, and then updated the plugin jail’s IP address to match the original one, so that I didn’t have to then change any settings to link all of the services back together. This post will cover the process for each of these plugins:Īll of these processes will require installing a new plugin, and adding the same storage links that exist in the old jail. There is a relevant bug filed against FreeNAS here, marked as “Not To Be Fixed”, so it seems the only solution is to re-create each plugin, export the appropriate settings/files from the old jail, and import into the new one.
#Sabnzbd freenas update#
For most services this didn’t matter, since they simply run from a git repository and update themselves accordingly, but for services like SABnzbd this left me with no easy “update plugin” method of upgrading to newer versions as they are released. This mostly recovered everything, with the exception that all of the plugins I had previously installed were not recognised as plugins, just standard jails. Some time ago the cheap USB flash drive that I ran the FreeNAS OS on died, requiring me to re-install (this time to 2, mirrored, flash drives) and re-import a backup of my settings.
