OSx Monterey

Postby Cepiuar » Thu Feb 10, 2022 2:40 am

I just installed OSx Monterey and have lost access to my RAID.
I don't see OpenZFS updated for Monterey.
What I can do? HELP!
Thanks

The Big Sur package should work fine.

I have installed OpenZFSonOsX2.1.0Big.Sur-11-arm64 and it doesn't work with Monterey :|

Any other solution?

Thanks

Sorry, not run it on arm, only on Intel. What 'doesn't work'.

A few things to check, terminal first:

Code: Select all
boris@iMac24R ~ %sysctl -a | grep kext
zfs.kext_version: 2.1.0-1


That should tell you whether the kernel extension is loaded and the right one

If you don't get output along these lines then you will need to approve the kernel extension
On an M1 this is a more difficult process in some respects than on Intel, due to its more opaque security

If you have installed over a previous version, the old kernel may not have been removed by the install process - see this: https://openzfsonosx.org/wiki/FAQ#Q.29_Uninstalling_on_Big_Sur_and_later

Approving kexts occurs in the Security & Privacy Control Panel, General tab and shows up during the install process

That should give you a few pointers, I can assure you that the arm64 version of zfs works well on Monterey with an M1; I am using it on both a laptop and an iMac, the latter as I write this.
