Same issue here. Have tried editing /boot/config/shares/timemachine.cfg and /etc/samba/smb.conf with no luck.

Thanks for this. I edited my smb.service in /etc/avahi/services to be as follows: <?xml version='1.0' standalone='no'?><!--*-nxml-*--> <!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM 'avahi-service.dtd'> <!-- Generated settings: --> <service-group> <name replace-wildcards='yes'>%h</name> <service> <type>_smb._tcp</type> <port>445</port> </service> <service> <type>_device-info._tcp</type> <port>0</port> <txt-record>model=Xserve</txt-record> </service> <service> <type>_adisk._tcp</type> <port>0</port> <txt-record>dk0=adVN=timemachine,adVF=0x82</txt-record> </service> </service-group> (my Time Machine share is called "timemachine"). I then mounted the share on my Mac and still can't see it from Time Machine

You're very welcome. Hopefully it can be merged into the next version (as well as a CSS fix).

Is anyone aware what could have changed in macOS 10.12 with regards to Time Machine functionality? I wouldn't have thought the client could make such a difference.

Oh god damn. Just spent an hour trying to work out why the limetech suggestions at the start of this thread didn't work Good to know! Would be great to have this in the UI if only to save time googling dozens of threads!

Could people not do exactly what the mover does with unBALANCE instead?

Thanks I found it. What was hard is all the plugins are in a completely different directory root. Even if you get past that, I'm having a lot of issues with watch folders not working correctly and inability to change the listen port. It's also really hard to map folders from two different shares as I keep getting very inconsistent results.

So I'll get the same unusable performance with an ADATA SU650?

Thanks. So are you saying this is normal and expected performance for the BX500? i.e. it can only cope with about 20GB at a time? I realised that the Main tab shows very out of date temperature figures. Tested again using watch -n 5 'smartctl -a -d ata /dev/sdh | grep Temp' and can see after 45 it ramps up to 70C where the performance immediately drops to 0. Even after finishing the transfer, the temperature continues to rise for another 5-10 mins. This means for every 20 GB to copy to the SSD you can't use it again for 10 full minutes!

Reading/writing to the spinning disk array (5400 rpm drives) I get pretty steady speeds of 160 MB/s. I installed a Crucial BX500 cache drive to try and improve this. I see good results reading from the cache drive with speeds about 430 MB/s. However, I have very odd results writing to the drive. It goes at full speed (~450 MB/s) for 45 seconds to a minute before dropping to 5 MB/s for 15 seconds, going up to 400 MB/s for 5 seconds then back down to 5 MB/s for even longer. In the end, the net speed over a 100 GB file is less than 50 MB/s or 3x slower than my 5400 rpm spinning drives! I thought it was thermally throttling as the Main tab shows the temperature hitting 70 C after lots of writes. But this is not consistent at all and it still reads as ~50 C sometimes even when throttling heavily. (Is the temeprature reading very delayed perhaps? What about the reads/writes on that tab?) What's going on here? Clearly an SSD running at 5 MB/s is not remotely fit for purpose.

I have it enabled but nothing is showing in System Log.

A couple of threads have mentioned this but there's no information about mover displayed in the log other than the start of the script.

Dang, still can't get it to be seen by any of my macOS systems

It's a javascript script for greasemonkey/tampermonkey. You install it on your webbrowser not the unraid server.

Should it be active immediately after editing the file or do you need to reboot to reload the cfg?

You need to go into web BMC > Configuration > Fan Mode at http://IP/cgi/url_redirect.cgi?url_name=mainmenu There you can change back to Optimal:

You might also choose different command names. The repo suggests cpg/mvg or advcp/advmv it seems. gcp clashes with the ohmyzsh alias for "git cherry-pick"

Seems to not run most days for some reason: If I go to the plugin settings and begin test it says "Internet bandwidth test started" and then does nothing. However, I can run the sivel/speedtest-cli script manually perfectly fine and it completes in a few moments: root@fs # speedtest-cli Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...

I changed it and rebooted and it was changed back to no again. How do you get it to survive a reboot?

Just curious — why do you say this is specific to Catalina? Do you know anything about earlier versions of macOS? I read the link you provided and it's not clear why that doesn't work either.

I have a single SSD and will be using XFS. I'm still not sure what things I should be putting on cache and how to avoid mis-steps with the mover script. Nor what other best practices are.

I just wrote a basic greasemonkey script to do this: // ==UserScript== // @name Move IMPI elements to bottom of unRAID dashboard // @include http://YOURHOSTNAMEORIP/Dashboard // @grant none // ==/UserScript== var container = document.querySelector ("div.content.shift"); var title = container.querySelector ("div#title"); var table = container.querySelector ("table#tblIPMIDash"); //-- Move IMPI elements to bottom container.appendChild (title); container.appendChild (table);

I'm on 10G. I was told on the serverbuilds forum that cache is very very useful and I got a free drive so I have it now anyway.

There's lots of different advice on what should be on the cache drive. I mainly use the box for torrents and Plex. What should I put there. It also seems there are lots of ways you ca get tripped up with the mover script. Has anyone got up-to-date tips? Finally from watching spaceinvaderone videos it seems you should use auto turbo write and trim plugins however there is no turbo write plugin any more. What do I need to keep in mind before adding my SSD cache?

Thanks for your patience. Very helpful and seems to have actually worked I'm sure it was working before when not constrained to a single disk but hey ho. Appreciate it a lot as now I don't need to run a slow VM.
