Hi, I have 2.4.2 installed on an SG-2220 from Netgate [nice box]. I just bought a 6TB powered USB drive from Costco and it works great (the drive has its own power supply and a USB hub). I want to use it take ZFS backups from my home server.
I edited /boot/loader.conf.local and /etc/rc.conf.local to load ZFS on boot and created a pool and a file system. That worked, but the memory ran low so I restricted the ARC cache to 1G to keep a bit more memory free and rebooted. When the system rebooted it did not remount the pool (and therefore the file system) because the pool what marked as in use by another system (itself). That means that the pool was not properly exported/umounted at shutdown. Taking a quick look a rc.shutdown, I notice that it calls a customized pfsense shutdown script at the beginning and then exits. Is there a good place in the configuration where I can put/call the proper zfs shutdown script so that the pool is properly stopped/exported so that it imports correctly on boot?
