This simply is not true. You could be backing up corrupted files.

Any way to remove device from cache pool through command?

The procedure is not intuitive and there's no indication saying the device is removed or not. I had another unsuccessful attempt. Here's what I did: 1. Stop the array 2. Assign both device to the same pool 3. Start the array 4. Stop the array 5. Delete cache pool and create one with one device and leave the other in UD. 6. Start the array What did I do wrong? saulgoodman-diagnostics-20211123-2008.zip

I did the procedure but it's not working. I stopped the array and chose no device in the pool. Then I started the array to forget the cache config and stopped the array again to configure two separate cache pools each with an SSD. The two SSDs are still in sync. What steps am I missing?

Hi, I had a cache pool setup with two 512GB SSDs in brtfs. A few days ago one of the drive reported two errors in the SMART page so I decided to remove it from the pool. I created a new pool only with the good SSD and left the bad SSD in UD. This is where I saw some weird things. The bad SSD seems to be linked to the good one in some way maybe the RAID setup is still effective. When I delete or create files on the good SSD the same action mirrored on the bad one sitting in the UD! I would expect the new pool to break the RAID 0 setup from the old cache pool. What am I missing here?

I had the same issue after moving vDisk from cache to array. The problem for me was when I point the vDisk path to the new location the type of vDisk changed from "qcow2" to "raw". So after I change this back to qcow2 everything works perfectly.

I have also noticed the virtio-net is much slower than virtio. Could someone explain why the newer and now default one is slower than the old virtio?

I am idle around 150W. 2 x E5-2680v4 + 128GB ECC DDR4 + 1 10Gbps NIC + 6 HDD (1 active, 5 spindown) + 7 fans around 850 RPM on Supermicro X10DRi.

What's the purpose of the new plugin (unraid.net) if VPN is the preferred way of accessing unRaid? I already have the VPN setup and I am considering switching to the plugin instead.

The only vulnerability I can think of regarding the security of unRaid Server in this context is there might be undiscovered security issues that allow attackers to bypass the form based login and gain access to other services.

Thanks for the sharing on security. I often need to access unRaid GUI while I'm out on a trip. I used to use OpenVPN to connect to home and access the management gui from LAN. Now with 6.9.2 I have the port forwarding setup for HTTPS to unRaid and it's the only port I am exposing on the internet. A strong root password has been set and all other services are behind my firewall. So now my question is: Is it equally safe to access my server this way compare to accessing through OpenVPN?

This is a great plugin and everything works perfectly! Recently I turned on the compression and I see that gzip would only use 1 thread to compress files and it takes so long to compress a 40GB ish database file. Any plans for adding multithreaded compression to the plugin or maybe adding zstd option for faster compression speed and better ratio? Also what would the best way so far to backup sql server 2019 dockers with 200GB+ database files (.mdf and .bak) in appdata folder?
