There’s nothing in those three commands that sets up automatic updates to the installed packages.Many Plex users have a near-pathological desire to have their installation as up-to-date as possible, so this won’t do. The package repository is by default set to quarterly, meaning that the Plex Media Server package will only be updated that often.If the jail needs to be rebuilt for some reason, you’ll lose it. The Plex metadata is stored inside the jail.While this remains true, it doesn’t account for a few “best practices”: I’ve said for a long time that Plex installation is trivial, requiring only three commands once the jail is created ( pkg install plexmediaserver, sysrc plexmediaserver_enable=YES, service plexmediaserver start). Like other scripts I’ve done, you’ll download the script, create a small configuration file, run the script, and your jail is up and running. If a newer version is found it can either be downloaded and held for admin approval or automatically installed to the server.I’ve writen a simple script to automate installation of Plex Media Server. To address this I have made a script that can be copied into a running Plex Media Server plug-in, and without needing anything else installed it can search the download site using paid PlexPass credentials and check for newer versions. But the available Plex Media Server plug-in is only as recent as the latest publicly available release. TrueNAS (previously FreeNAS) has a plug-in architecture that makes running Plex Media Server on TrueNAS (previously FreeNAS) trivialy easy. Plex is an amazing media server/client platform that can organize and stream those same media libraries. TrueNAS (previously FreeNAS) is an excellent open-source network attached storage project based on FreeBSD that is very capable of storing even the largest media libraries Thanks to at the FreeNAS/ TrueNAS forums for all the help provided.
