Soooo, is it dead? LOL, whatever

@ScottPSilver OK, nice. Glad your now on latest testing.

Our installers were build some time ago now so there are many OS updates that also get installed when doing that method of update. That means it can take ages. But future updates should be far faster now your base OS has had the available updates all caught-up.

From you Web-UI pic you are currently running a 6.5.1 kernel (top right) on Leap 15.4. That good as it’s required to enable read-write on the Leap 15.4 base OS. Default kernel on 15.4 is around 5.14.

Did you also install the filesystem backports as indicated in our:

https://rockstor.com/docs/howtos/stable_kernel_backport.html

Regarding the red error message in your last post: 4.5.8-0 was an RC5 in our last testing channel phase heading towards our current stable of 4.6.1-0. But 5.0.8-0 is latest in current testing channel. This means that almost every back-end dependency is at least years newer. And we had to make a lot of changes. Try to do a Web browser - More tools - developer tools - Network (tab) and ensure “Disable cache” is ticked. Then with that panel still open do a normal browser refresh. This will force the newer browser side of things into place. Just in case what we see here is some old stuff lingering in the browser cache. You can also try logging out and back in.

Let us know if that top-of-page error then disapears. But otherwise you do now look to be on 5.0.8-0 which is nice. The error may be related to an inability to interpret the pool but lets take this a step at a time.

Also familiarise yourself with our Web-UI log reader: System - Logs Manager. We don’t yet have a populated doc entry for this unfortunately, but pull requests are always welcome; and we have the following rockstor-doc repo issue for this:

It may help with seeing relevant doc entries to assist with the back and forth here on the forum.

I have extremely limited time for the forum as I’m working towards our next stable releae: with consequent installer / installer repo / website / Doc / back-end / server / Appman updates etc so may not be of much service here. But just wanted to nudge this along a little.

Glad your are at least now running what is our 3rd Stable Release Candidate (RC3). I hope to be releasing RC4 quite soon.

Can you also test the Pool overview and detail page for the problem pool? Pics if possible. One of our aims here is to address any malfunction on our side: as your basic issue is a poorly pool. Our Web-UI behaviour in such circumstance is more our remit here.

Hope that helps others here help @ScottPSilver further as I’m afraid I will find it difficult to ‘own’ this community support request currently.
