    Disks not spinning down

    in General Support

    Posted

    Hi

     

    I'm having problems with my discs not spinning down automatic after upgrading to Unraid 6.3.5. After a restart of the server, spindown is working for a week or so, but after that i'm experiencing that all my array discs don't spin down anymore. The spindown of the parity is working perfectly. Even if i press the spin down button the discs spin down, but imediately spin up again.

     

    I've tried disabeling my dockers 1 by 1, but that didn't do the trick, however when looking at the open files plugin it seems that Docker could be the reason. I just don't understand that as all my dockers are located on an Unassigned device

     

    Do anyone have similar spin down issues??

    [Support] Linuxserver.io - TVHeadend

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I've been using this Docker for a while, and as an absolute linux and Docker noob, it is flawless, however i'm having one issue with it. 

     

    When using the internal XMLTV grabber, the grabbing starts over and over again. It does not follow the entered Cron statement(Standard)

     

    # Default config (00:04 and 12:04 everyday)
    4 */12 * * *

     

    Whenever it has finished downloading, it restarts right away, but as i understand, it should only run at 0:04 and at 12:04

     

    Please advise

    Is disk part of parity calculation

    in General Support

    Posted

    Yes, if it's part of the array, it's included in the parity calculations -- so writes to the SSD will be MUCH slower than if it was an unassigned or cache device.

     

    That was what i was afraid of. As "Unassigned Devices" can't be used anymore, and as it's not possible to assign my SSD as cache an only use it for my Dockerapps. I wonder why Lime Tech removed the posibility to use "Unassigned Devices"

    i believe is due to the fact that on many systems the unassigned Devices plugin does not always mount its drives before docker is started, so on such systems docker will fail to start.

     

    Ok, but it worked flawlesly on 6.1

     

    I've never had any problems until now

    After the upgrade to Unraid 6.2 it's not possible to use an "Unassigned Device" as dockerstorage. Due to that i've installed my SSD into the array,

    and then removed the drive from the "Global share settings"

    but now i'm wondering wether the disk(disk22) is part of the parity calculation or not.

     

    I was looking at installing my SSD as a Cache device, but it's i don't think it's possible to force my docker to use only the SSD. Further I haven't found it possible to only use my normal cache drive for my array

     

    Is disk 22 a part of the parity calculation. If so, please advise how to solve this issue

    Hi Saag

     

    I really like this Docker, however i'm having some issues using XMLTV. Somehow i'm only getting 7 days of EPG, using XMLTV, but i know that my providor is providing up to 14 days. Can i in any way see the downloaded xmltv files within the docker, or is it possible to download the files to the config library?

     

    br,

    Thomas

    You have to add the number of days to grab in the extra arguments box in the xmltv grabber in the tvheadend settings.

    Add the below to get 14 days.

     

    --days 14

    Extra arguments box? Could you please explain where i find that?

     

    Thomas

    I thought I just did, but here it goes again.

    Configuration --> channel/EPG --> EPG grabber module --> Your configured xmltv grabber.

     

    Found it. Just had to install the unstable version

    Unstable Network speed

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    Need a bit of an advise here. I'm having a pretty strange problem. I've installed a windows 7 virtual machine on my Unraid V6 installation. all the virtual drivers have been installed according to the Wiki, but i'm seeing really slow speeds when downloading from the internet using my FTP.

     

    I have sort of sorted the problem, but it would be nice i someone could explain to me why i'm seeing this behavior.

     

    When i was looking at the nic i windows it was connected with a speed of 10G. When looking at perfmon in windows the network utilisation looked like a saw and after about 1 min of downloading, the speed was down from apx. 250Mbps to max. 100Kbps.

     

    After some pulling in my hair i tried to change the network adaptor speed to 1G, and that solved the problem. Now i'm seeing completely staple speeds at 280Mbps, when downloading using FTP from the internet to my unraid raid.

     

    It seems that my network droprate on the nic's is fixed too

     

    Any good explanations would be apreciated

    [CONTAINER] CrashPlan & CrashPlan-Desktop

    in Docker Containers

    Posted

    Hi

     

    First thank you for your great work. Unfortunately i'm having problems getting  crashplan to work. I'm new to docker, and i cant't seem to get your Crashplan to work, or i did have it working until a reboot of the server. I've tried telnetting the Chashplan Docker og port 4243, but i don't get an answer. When i don't get an answer on port 4243 i'm not able to connect using the GUI in the GUI Docker or using the GUI on my computer. I'm out of ideas and I don't know what to do to solve this issue. Please advise

    Timestamp issue

    in General Support (V5 and Older)

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I've a issue modifying the timestamp of folders on Unraid. I've made a Powershell script tha scans the folder, and changes the folders timestamp to that of the oldest file. Everything is working fine when running it on a folder on my windows machine, however running it on a shared Samba folder doesn't work. The timestamp of the folder located on the Unraid server does not get updated.

     

    I'm running a 5.0.5 version of Unraid

     

    Any help appreciated

     

    Powershell script:

    $folders = Get-ChildItem $root | Where-Object {$_.PSIsContainer} | Sort Name

    foreach($folder in $folders)

    {

    Write-Warning $folder.fullname

     

    $oldest = Get-ChildItem -LiteralPath $folder -Force | Sort LastWriteTime | select -First 1

    Write-Host $oldest

    Write-Host $oldest.LastWriteTime

     

    if($oldest)

    {

    #oldest object found, set current directory LastWriteTime

    $Crea = Get-ItemProperty -Path $folder -Name CreationTime

    $Last = Get-ItemProperty -Path $folder -Name LastWriteTime

    Write-Host $Crea

    Write-Host $Last

     

    Set-ItemProperty -Path $folder -Name CreationTime -Value $oldest.LastWriteTime -force

    Set-ItemProperty -Path $folder -Name LastWriteTime -Value $oldest.LastWriteTime -force

     

    }

    else

    {

    # current directory is empty, directory LastWriteTime is left unchanged

    Write-Warning "Directory '$($folder.FullName)' is empty, skiping..."

    $x = $host.UI.RawUI.ReadKey("NoEcho,IncludeKeyDown")

    }

     

    }

    Write-Host

    Write-Warning "Done..."

    $x = $host.UI.RawUI.ReadKey("NoEcho,IncludeKeyDown")
