Description

Start the reboot from the GUI:

Enter an option: pflog0: promiscuous mode disabled
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop... done
Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...
Syncing disks, vnodes remaining... 0 0 0 0 0 0 done
All buffers synced.
Uptime: 3m20s
Khelp module "ertt" can't unload until its refcount drops from 1 to 0.
uhub0: detached

At this point, it hangs. Noticed on a Netgate 6100 with 23.09.1.

What make and model is the SSD?

Actions #5

Updated by Danilo Zrenjanin 11 months ago

Installing the SSD drive in another port did not resolve the issue. It behaved in the same way.

Actions #6

Updated by Danilo Zrenjanin 11 months ago

The drives used in testing:

Trancent ts128Gmte452 and SK hynix.

The behavior is the same. It hangs when rebooting.

#3049726503 installed the original drive from the spare device, but it still hangs.

Actions #19

Updated by Andrew Almond 3 months ago

Ran into the same issue today on a 6100.
The internal storage was no longer detected after a power outage, so we installed pfSense 24.03 to a USB stick as a temporary workaround.
The output looks the same as the other posts - the usb devices are detached and then nothing. It also needed to be manually rebooted when the the pfSense installation was finished.

We DO NOT get the "Khelp module "ertt" can't unload until its refcount drops from 5 to 0." message".
