loses the latest configurations in case of incorrect system shutdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the problem manifests itself?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>After any firewall configuration (creating a user creation, adding rules, modifying the interface, etc \u2026)<\/li><li>When turning off the power to the system.<\/li><li>Configuration without a correct firewall shutdown or restart.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The issue does not appear if, after applying any configuration, a correct shutdown or restart of the firewall is performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to solve the problem?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The issue can be resolved by using a ZFS type file system, which is more resilient to unscheduled shutdown problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, currently ther is no way to convert the system from UFS to ZFS, so you need to backup your firewall configuration, reinstall the system using ZFS and restore the configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Configuration backups made on UFS machines can be seamlessly transferred to the same machines using ZFS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following screenshots show the correct installation steps: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"661\" height=\"418\"
