This Docker Application will let you view your storage controllers & the drives attached to them and perform Benchmarks on both. Controller Benchmarks helps to identify if the drives attached to it will potentially exceed the capacity of the controller if they were all fully being read from at the same time (such as during a Parity check). Drive Benchmarks lets you monitor the performance over time to look for desegregation or unexpected slow areas while getting a clean SMART report. Installation Via the Community Application: Search for "DiskSpeed" Manual Installation (The Community Applications plugin is having issues currently, here's a work around for now) Save the attached "my-DiskSpeed.xml" file to your NAS under \\tower\flash\config\plugins\dockerMan\templates-user View the Docker tab in your unRAID Administrator , click on "Add Container" Under "Select a template", pick "my-DiskSpeed" The defaults should work as-is unless you have port 18888 already in use. If so, change the Web Port & WebUI settings to a new port number. The Docker will create a directory called "DiskSpeed" in your appdata directory to hold persistent data. Note: Privileged mode is required so that the application can see the controllers & drives on the host OS. This docker will use up to 512MB of RAM. RAM optimization will happen in a later BETA. Running View the Docker tab in your unRAID Administrator and click on the icon next to "DiskSpeed" and select WebUI. Drive Images As of this December 2022, the Hard Drive Database (HDDB) has 3,000+ drive models in 70+ brands. If you have one or more drives that do not have a predefined image in the HDDB, you have a couple options available - wait for me to add the image which will be displayed after you click "Rescan Controllers" or you can add the drive yourself by editing it and uploading a drive image for it. You can view drive images in the HDDB to see if there's an image that'll fit your drive and optionally upload it so others can benefit. Controller & Drive Identification Issues Some drives, notably SSD's, do not reveal the Vendor correctly or at all. If you view the Drive information and it has the same value for the vendor as the model or an incorrect or missing Vendor, please inform me so that I can manually add the drive to the database or add code to handle it. If you have a controller that is not detected, please notify me. Benchmarking Drives Disk Drives with platters are benchmarked by reading the drive at certain percentages for 15 seconds and averages the speed for each second except for the first 2 seconds which tends to trend high. Since drives can be accessed while testing, if a min/max read speed exceeds a threshold, the test is re-performed with an increasing threshold to account for drives with bad areas. Solid State drives are benchmarked by writing large files to the device and then reading them back. In order to benchmark SSD's, they must be mounted in UNRAID and a mapping configured in the DiskSpeed Docker settings. You must restart the DiskSpeed app after mounting a device for it to be detected. For other Docker installations, an example is -v '/mnt':'/mnt/Host':'rw' if you have all your SSD's mounted under /mnt. You may need more than one volume parameter if they are mounted in different areas. Contributing to the Hard Drive Database If you have a drive that doesn't have information in the Hard Drive Database other than the model or you've performed benchmark tests, a button will be displayed at the bottom of the page labeled "Upload Drive & Benchmark Data to the Hard Drive Database". The HDDB will display information given up by the OS for the drives and the average speed graphs for comparison. Application Errors If you get an error message, please post the error here and the steps you took to cause it to happen. There will be a long string of java diagnostics after the error message (java stack) that you do not need to include, just the error message details. If you can't get past the Scanning Hardware screen, change the URL from http://[ip]:[port]/ScanControllers.cfm to http://[ip]:[port]/isolated/CreateDebugInfo.cfm and hit enter. Note: The unRAID diagnostic file doesn't provide any help. If submitting a diagnostic file, please use the link at the bottom of the controllers in the Diskspeed GUI. Home Screen (click top label to return to this screen) Controller Information Drive Information While the system cache is bypassed when benchmarking, some devices have a built-in cache that ignores cache bypass commands. An initial high write speed that quickly levels out is a sign of such as shown below. Drive Editor my-DiskSpeed.xml

If you have a non-GPU device that you wish to assign to a guest in KVM and are using the machine type of PC (not Q35), you can use this XML and skip the <qemu:cmd> arguments at the end. This goes in between the <devices> and </devices> tags in your domain XML. <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </source> </hostdev> For "bus", "slot", and "function", this should be your PCI device address. The above XML will pass through PCI device 02:00.1. Again, this only applies to non-graphics PCI devices (NICs, USB controllers, capture cards, tuners, etc.) Happy virtualizing!!

Asus B450-f Gaming Ryzen 2600 GT720 (for unRaid) GTX950 (for passthrough) In trying to diagnose a number of errors (namely a 127 error affect one my my PCIe slots), as well as get Primary-GPU passthrough working, I noticed there was a BIOS update for my motherboard that included the new microcode for the 3-series ryzens, etc. So I updated. After that, no VMs needing GPUs would boot (127 / D3 error). Not only did a restart of the server not clear the problem, it never actually restarted. Watching the shutdown process I noticed it went through everything appropriately but the shutdown signal never actually turned the server off; I had to do the push-and-hold of the power button to actually get it to power off. After a bunch of messing around that didn't fix the problem I went back to the previous BIOS (2008) and all the problems disappeared. Luckily Asus' ez-flash allowed 'updating' to an older version. I suppose there's something between the BIOS and unRaid that isn't playing nice thats causing these problems. I don't know enough about much of it to offer any other conclusions than that.

I'll stick with my VPN. It's not bad ( I get 30mbps+ on most servers, I just have a bit of a problem rn with openvpn). I'll contact support and try to fix this. Thank you for the help! Much appreciated 👍

I think there was something wrong with the config. I removed the config and then re-created it and everything is fine.

I would do a Screenshot of the disk assignments prior to starting the conversion. You should not need them but having it in hand will virtually guarantee that you will not need them (One of Mr Murphy's Laws...).

I have split this into its own topic. Do you have any other working dockers? Please post your docker run command as already requested.

you are using /mnt/disks/... in Plex, wich is the host path, not the docker path ... and its a "relative weird" setup anyway ... 1st u need to add a mountpoint in your plex docker (check faqs), or as these are external sources anyway why not use them directly in Plex as network shares ?

Thanks @johnnie.black! Appreciate you sharing your efforts. The script looks good, a lot better than some of my past bash efforts 😆 You could automate detecting the number of disks using something like: ndisks=`ls -d1 /mnt/disk[0-9]* | wc -l` for i in $(seq 1 $ndisks); do ... Probably overkill, but I always think the less is hardcoded, the better...

Disk10 dropped offline and got reconnected with a different identifier, there's a SMART report on the diags, it's sdn now, rebooting will fix the GUI/SMART issue, though you'll still need to rebuild the disk, which looks fine so more likely a connection issue.

Requests were invited. First page, second post: "If you have any wishes for gameservers please write it here in this topic or send me a private message." Though you are absolutely correct, the polite thing to do would be to supply a copy of the game in question if required at bare minimum.

Ahh, totally understandable. Wine is more workaround than solution, totally with you on avoiding it.

To get log file just include this in your rclone command --log-file /path/to/logfile/log_filename.txt.... Just like the documentation says..."string" just means the path and filename of wherever you want the log to output to. And don't forget to use a -v...... AND your when you use log file flag, your command info will ONLY go to the log file and not be displayed live in terminal window. If you run any command in terminal, the command will STOP if you close the terminal window.

I'm very new to this but learning, I am currently running 6.6.7 and not sure but when I first started with this program I had the nice colour icons on all my apps like docker and such and now I only have colour app on the new ones I download. Not sure how to start over and get back the colour icons for such things as Docker, network, pretty much any thing in system settings is black and white and very generic looking to say, unlike what it should be. Any help would be apprefciated as I like the other look with this.

Whatever is using the integrated graphics will probably show up on the built-in display. An external display may be required to see the output of the dedicated GPU.

Many thanks, saved me tons of space. will keep these safe as they come in very handy. I am pretty sure Radarr doesn't download smaller versions if you change profile or the cutoff.

Yeah that's running in bridge mode, thus the ports should be and have been defined. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Your home network should be able to easily keep up with any transcoding so having the Plex server remote should not be an issue, even if Plex is direct streaming the video.

Hi Many thanks for your hard work, a most excellent posting. I get as far as step 8 [/etc/rc.d/rc.pulseway start] This produces error for me something is missing, Error -:- /etc/pulseway# /etc/rc.d/rc.pulseway start Starting Pulseway Daemon ... /usr/sbin/pulsewayd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Error! I guess that the libssl.so.0.9.8 is missing? Iam running Version: 6.7.0-rc3 of unraid. Any chance of upgrading your guide pls, as I would like to get pulseway working on Unraid 6.7.0-rc3 and future versions. Can pulseway be installed as a plugin/docker/app!? Many thanks -- oOSGearOo

Yes, if you are using the unraid stock ups software (apcupsd). On the slave server set the cable type to Ether, the ups type to Net, and the device to <master_server_name_or_ip>:3551 Make SURE that the conditions to shutdown are set to keep the master on long enough to allow the slave server to shutdown first. Personally, I have the master machine set to shut down after 300 seconds on battery, and the slave after 270 seconds. If the power around here is off more than a minute, it's going to be out a while. BTW, this also works for VM's. I have apcupsd set up in all my VM's to initiate shutdown after 60 seconds of no power, so they have plenty of time to finish up what they are doing and shutdown cleanly before unraid pulls the rug out from under them.
