=====Nas4Free Build=====
====Partition drives for ZFS====
http://www.freebsddiary.org/zfs-with-gpart.php
====VirtualBox====
  cd /mnt/storage

  mkdir VirtualBox

  cd VirtualVBox
  
For different version visit https://e-vectra.ru/index.php/s/TFbpcHxi7jTcIPe?path=%2FNAS4Free-VirtualBox and drop into /mnt/storage/VirtualBox

  

  tar xf vbox_installerxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  chmod +x vbox_configure.sh 

  ./vbox_configure.sh

====ZFS Tune====
  mkdir /mnt/data/zfskerntune
  cd /mnt/data/zfskerntune
  fetch http://www.peach.ne.jp/archives/nas4free/ext/zfskerntune-20121031.tar.gz
  tar xvf zfskerntune-20121031.tar.gz
  cd zfskerntune
  ./zfskerntune-install.php
====TheBrig====
http://www.forums.nas4free.org/viewtopic.php?t=3894

  fetch -o /tmp/thebrig_install.sh https://github.com/fsbruva/thebrig/raw/working/thebrig_install.sh



  chmod a+x /tmp/thebrig_install.sh


  /bin/sh /tmp/thebrig_install.sh /mnt/NAS-A/Jail 2
note: change /mnt/NAS-A/Jail by your own destination, if your pool is named Data, can be /mnt/Data/Jail 

Edit hosts file

  vi /etc/hosts

edit line with IP address 127.0.0.1 to read

  127.0.0.1 – localhost.{your jail name}.local

add line at bottom with your jail IP and your jail name (My line reads: 192.168.1.200 emon.local)

{your jail IP address} {your jail name}.local

Save and exit
====4K sectors====
For each device which will be made a part of the pool, a gnop "chained" device needs to be created, and then those devices need to be added to a pool:

  gnop create -S 4096 /dev/da0
  gnop create -S 4096 /dev/da1
  zpool create data mirror /dev/da0.nop /dev/da1.nop

This will create the "data" pool with the *.nop devices, making ZFS think the drives have 4K physical sectors. Next, the pool needs to be exported and the gnop devices removed:

  zpool export data
  gnop destroy /dev/da0.nop /dev/da1.nop

Next, the pool can be imported from the "raw" devices:

  zpool import data

You can check the configuration of the pool by using the "zdb" command on the pool:

  zdb -C data | grep ashift

The ashift should be "12" for 4K alignment. This works because ZFS writes the ashift value in its metadata.
====Plex====

Next, to download the ports tree (this includes the files to compile Plex), run the following:
  portsnap fetch
  portsnap extract

Now, to install Plex, run the following command:
  cd /usr/ports/multimedia/plexmediaserver/ && make install clean

Once that is complete, you need to setup Plex to start automatically when the jail starts with the following command:
  echo plexmediaserver_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf

Next, start Plex with the following:
  service plexmediaserver start
  
====Upgrading Plex====

When new releases of Plex come out, you may update without losing your data and preferences. To check if a new release of Plex is available via ports, visit this page:
  http://www.freshports.org/multimedia/plexmediaserver/

To upgrade Plex, first install a tool called portupgrade with this command:
  cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade/ && make install clean

When configuration dialog boxes appear, accept the defaults.

Next, you have to update the FreeBSD port tree with this command:
  portsnap fetch update

Then to upgrade all ports at once, use the following:
  portupgrade -a

Alternatively, you can have portupgrade prompt you before upgrading each port with this:
  portupgrade -ai
  
or

  In short, for upgrade just go to where you had installed plex (chroot, jail, jail in chroot...) and upgrade SW
  pkg upgrade

Afterwards, your ports, including Plex, should be up to date.

====Upgrade Plex====
I run the commands as root, so su preceding the following or log into the jail as root.

  mkdir /tmp/src
  cd /tmp/src
  wget http://downloads.ple...d-amd64.tar.bz2
  tar xvf PlexMediaServer-0.9.9.12.504-3e7f93c-freebsd-amd64.tar.bz2
  service plexmediaserver stop
  mv /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver /usr/local/share/oldplex
  mkdir /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver
  cp -r /tmp/PlexMediaServer-0.9.12.4.1192-9a47d21/* /usr/local/share/plexmediaserver/
  service plexmediaserver start
 
Of course after it starts and you verify it runs properly you can remove the old folders and the tar/extracted copies. Now you are on the latest build with out having to wait for the plugin to be updated.
 
This will only update the actual plex media server and leave all the media database and meta data alone since it is segmented into it's own folders. Once you start the server go into settings and server info, you may need to force it to refresh the page but will list 9.9.12 as the version.
