|
|
TrueNAS is managed through a comprehensive web interface that is supplemented by a minimal shell console that handles essential administrative functions. The web interface supports storage pool configuration, user management, sharing configuration and system maintenance. As an ] system appliance, TrueNAS boots from a ] device or ] ]. This image is configured using a ] bootable installer. The TrueNAS ] is fully independent of its storage disks, allowing its configuration database and encryption keys to be backed up and restored to a fresh installation of the Operating System. This separation also allows for TrueNAS system upgrades to be performed through the web interface. |

The TrueNAS project originated as FreeNAS, created by Olivier Cochard-Labbé in October 2005, based on the m0n0wall firewall and FreeBSD 6.0. The project evolved over time, with Volker Theile joining in 2006 and later leading the project. In 2009, development shifted towards Debian Linux, resulting in the creation of OpenMediaVault. Cochard-Labbé returned to oversee the project's transition to iXsystems, where FreeNAS was re-engineered and rebranded as TrueNAS.
The reimplementation of FreeNAS with version 8.0 transitioned the project onto a new architecture based on FreeBSD's NanoBSD embedded build system, Python, Django, and the dōjō toolkit. The initial web server, lighttpd, was later replaced by nginx in subsequent versions.
