md5sum is missing, please install

[TnTBass]

Running the script generates an output/error:

md5sum is missing, please install

However, /sbin/md5 is in FreeBSD. Can that be used instead? Would be easier to use this script if no extra installs are required.

Replaced the lines with md5sum and sha256 sum with md5 and sha256 - made it through to actually seeing a report now.

However:

cp: /root/backup/20230516125852_TrueNAS-12.0-U8-4db0d935e6.tar.gz: No such file or directory
/root/FreeNAS-Report/report.sh: line 1287: _WD-WMC1F1908317[lastTestHours]: invalid variable name

I suspect that's the reason why I'm not seeing all 6 of my drives in the report. Maybe the age of the drives?

Your Report

The original FreeNAS-Report you forked from would output as this (which is why I started down this journey of using your fork):

What is the output of uname -mrs?

Also, can you run the script with -d and attach the resulting dump file after commenting out the _WD-WMC1F1908317[lastTestHours] line in your config file. Also please paste the serial number of the drive in question as it appears in smartctl output.

[TnTBass]

# uname -mrs
FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p12 amd64

I didn't have a _WD-WMC1F1908317[lastTestHours] in my config file.

Serial number is: WD-WMC1F1908317

# ./report.sh -d -c /root/FreeNAS-Report/report.cfg
./report.sh: line 1287: _WD-WMC1F1908317[lastTestHours]: invalid variable name

Unfortunately I don't see any dump file.

[TnTBass]

I pulled your latest version, it doesn't complain about md5sum.

Still same errors on the variables though.

@TnTBass please try the latest version.

Looks great now!

Only thing I noticed was the config backup location isn't created automatically, so I get an error that the file wasn't found. I created the directory set in the config and now it works great!

Thank you!
