Ok, now I'm getting somewhere. There is also a 1.3 TB cache pool on my server. Is the "Minimum free space" value also relevant for the cache? In this case 8.2 % of 1.3 TB results in approximately 100 GB.

I understand that. But I still cannot see how in my case 8.2 % equals 100 GB. The smallest drive is 6 TB.

That would also have been my next point. In case of mixed drive sizes a percentage is not really practical. I would definitely prefer absolute values.

I understand that. But something does not add up. If I enter 100 GB it converts the value to 8.2 %. I have 3 data drives in the array, two 10 TB and one 6 TB. In case of the 10 TB drives 8.2 % would equal to 0.82 TB or 820 GB. And in case of the 6 TB drive it also does not match as 8.2 % of 6 TB is 0.492 or 492 GB. So in neither case the 8.2 % corresponds to 100 GB.

Thanks for your reply. I would indeed welcome it if it was possible to set an absolute value like 100 GB. And for those who prefer a relative value in form of a percentage unraid could keep accepting those as well.

On my server I have various shares and since I don't intend to store files bigger than 100 GB I set the "Minimum free space" value to 100 GB. But with version 6.12.1 this value has changed to 8.2 %. If I want to revert it to 100 GB it does not accept that value but instead keeps the 8.2 %. What does that even mean? 8.2 % of what? How do I calculate the actual min. free space in GB based on that percentage? Is this intended behavior or a bug?

I recreated the flash drive and so far it's working again. Let's hope it stays that way. Thanks for your help 👍

Recently my Unraid server (6.10.3) shut itself down. I can restart it but eventually it will shut itself down again. Today I tried to fix the issue and realized that there are a few issues with the server: I cannot update Unraid to the latest version. Instead I get the following message: writing flash device - please wait... Archive: /tmp/unRAIDServer.zip plugin: run failed: /bin/bash retval: 1 I cannot update any of the plugins. Depending on the plugin I get various error messages (two examples): Warning: copy(/boot/config/plugins/dynamix.unraid.net.plg): failed to open stream: Read-only file system in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.plugin.manager/scripts/plugin on line 647 plugin: dynamix.unraid.net.plg updated downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/fix.common.problems/master/archive/fix.common.problems-2022.12.10-x86_64-1.txz ... failed (Generic error) plugin: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/fix.common.problems/master/archive/fix.common.problems-2022.12.10-x86_64-1.txz download failure (Generic error) When I click on Apps it wants me to install the Community Applications plugin (which should already be installed). Doing so fails with the following error message: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/community.applications/master/archive/community.applications-2022.12.03-x86_64-1.txz ... failed (Generic error) plugin: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/community.applications/master/archive/community.applications-2022.12.03-x86_64-1.txz download failure (Generic error) Seriously I don't know what's wrong. Should I replace the USB stick? Or is there something else I need to do? Thanks in advance for your help.

For me 6.9.2 does not work. At first it boots but after a few minutes the Nextcloud docker stops working, the shares are not reachable anymore and even rebooting the server fails (it gets stuck at the reboot counter). I need to hard reset in order to get into the web interface again. I downgraded the server to 6.9.1 and now it works again.

I use Unraid as my file/ backup server with a Nextcloud docker for easy cloud access. But whenever I'm on the move and want to upload a large amount of files I use Filezilla in conjunction with SFTP since this has proven to be the most stable method to upload a large amount of files while outside the home network. Now since Unraid is configured to only support login through SSH as "root" all the files I upload using SFTP are stored with owner "root:root" and permissions 775. This contradicts the owner/ permissions of all the other files on the server which are stored with user "nobody:users" and permissions 664 (directories 2775). Is there any way I can change that behavior so the files/ folders get owner "nobody:users" and permissions 664 for files and 2775 for folders? It's very annoying always having to remember to change the owner/ permissions after the upload.

Nice. Realizing one has made a mistake and apologizing for it is exactly what is needed in a situation like this. Well done 👍

I'm running the beta too, primarily because for some reason the stable version would not work with my mainboard's Ethernet whereas the beta works flawlessly. I updated to beta 2 and so far nothing seems to cause troubles. I don't use VMs though. Array, cache pool, shares and docker containers (Nextcloud, Letsencrypt...) have all survived the upgrade.

Great instructions, with your help I've successfully set up the OnlyOffice docker for my Nextcloud.

Nobody? Is my question so out of the ordinary?

Ok I found out about the CA Backup plugin. If I use it to backup the appdata share as well as the USB drive does this cover me in case of dataloss? I'm still talking about the configuration of the docker containers for nextcloud, letsencrypt and mariadb. The actual data on the server has already been taken care of.
