    This is kind of a big ask, if you think about it.  First, how do you wish ti be notified?  Email, SMS, telegram, one of the many notification methods out there?  Then LT would need to monitor the entire Unraid user base of servers running Connect.  How do you handle those no longer running servers, or even just no longer using connect?  A


    The reason I thought it would be useful is if Unraid Connect already has a connection, it would know if it went offline and you could set up the notification similar to those that check if a website is up.

    I had the free version of statuscake monitoring one of the webservers running on unraid. Then I had unraid crashing at least once a day and I had a scary incident with appdata. I then started backing up appdata nightly but it takes down the docker containers. I got notification every night that was not very helpful. So now I run uptime kuma on a free oracle cloud server that I can configure maintenance hours. I use the free statuscake account to monitor uptime kuma because oracle cloud is not too stable. 

    So back to my original suggestion, if unraid connect detected my machine offline, it would be nice if I could get a notification.

    Hello everybody,

    first I need to tell you, that I´m an absolute noob.

    But anyway I got a Macinabox Monterey VM up and running in my unraid system.

    The only thing that´s not working is login with apple-id to use app-store and icloud functions.

    in the XML file of the VM I use e1000-82545em as interface...

    I read a lot in tis thread and even in german forum, but can´t find a solution or datailed description of how to solve this?

    This ist my actual server configuration...

     

    unraid version 6.11.1 basic

    Hardware:

    - Mainboard Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. C246M-WU4-CF

    - Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz

    - RAM: 24GiB DDR4

     

    What more information do you need to support me?

    Thanks to everybody here for support!

    Greetings, Sven

    I have a similar problem that I cannot log into iMessage. It will log in and then drop me back to the login screen. I have tried and will continue to try the workarounds with eth0 but they don't seem to work. 

  3. I searched this thread but I don't think I found anything related. I am running Unraid - latest and BigSur in vm. After a fresh start everything seems to work fine. I do not connect back for extended periods of time like a week.

     

    When I connect after a week using VNC from unraid, or the separate VNC Viewer, my keyboard will not allow me to type my password. I can move my mouse, hit the Cancel X which refreshes the screen, but no keyboard entry.

     

    I am running the VNC clients from a macbook pro if that makes a difference.

     

    If I force a restart of the VM, the keyboard will work again.

    You need to generate proper smbios data, you need to setup en0 interface as "built-in", don't use vmxnet3, these are the main things.

    Search the forum for imessage/facetime, this topic has been discussed several times.

     

     

    I followed this guide, which is a little diffferent to the youtube explanation at the start. 

    I think the big change was not to run the script after the first install and edit the xml by hand with a change to the network card. After 2 days of reinstalling multiple versons this worked. Thanks for the help.

    "generate proper smbios" Is that the part in the video where you use the openCore Configurator, mount EFI and open the config.plist, go to platforminfo, select a machine and check the serial number on apple to make sure it says invalid? I do notice that when I close , save and reopen config.plist it is blank again. I have checked my en0 and builtin with hackintool.

    Did you change to „localtime“ in the xml where it says <clock offset='utc'>? Put localtime where utc is

    I still had it set to utc, I changed it to localtime, but I still have the same issue. After booting up the first time, I did change the timezone to my timezone to get the time right.

     

    Log into it using new AppleID - Logs in, shows iMessage for 5 seconds and kicks back to login screen.

    Log into it using my personal AppleID. Logs in, prompts me for mfa, and it works.

     

    That is what has me so confused.

  7. I have tried multiple installs of Big Sur but I cannot get Message to work properly.

     

    I install with all the defaults. I do the OpenCore steps according to the latest SpaceInvader (love this) video. I have created a new AppleID account. I first log in without AppleID and then connect to appleID.

     

    When I open Message and log in, it is successful and then closes 5-10 seconds later. I have looked at the confusing steps that others have put up to "fix" the issue, but they don't seem to apply to me.

     

    If I log in with my own apple id in the VM (using vnc viewer), Messages works fine and doesn't shut down. 

     

    If I use new appleid and then use messages on my macbook, the appleid works fine.

     

    So I think macinabox Messages is fine (works with my appleid) AND new appleID works fine (works on my macbook)

     

    BUT I cannot get new appleid to work in macinabox and I don't know where to look or what steps to take next. Any help would be welcomed. 

  8. I have been running a Dell T40 for my first unraid server. It has a Xeon E-2224G cpu with 32 gb of memory. 4x3TB disks and 2 cache ssd drives.

     

    I get high CPU utilization when very little is running on it. I have one VM and 6 docker containers running. They all very light.

     

    The picture below is because mover is running and some light mythtv recording in the VM.

     

    What should I be looking for that could be causing the cpu load. I cannot believe this cpu is so underpowered (but maybe it is).   top does not show anything terribly bad on unraid or in the vm.

  9. Unraid Version: 6.8.3

    Dell T40

    CPU: 8th Gen Core 4-core Workstation Processor

    Memory 32 Gig

     

    It seems like when I have multiple different processes writing to the disks the shfs uses all available cpu. I notice on the dashboard all 4 cores go red and the webpage will stop responding. If I am ssh'ed using top I see the load climb to > 20. 

     

    Server will recover after a couple minutes but I don't know what is causing it. Is that normal behavior?

     

    I have installed "Fix Common Problems" and that has not found any errors.

     

    I am normally made aware of the problem as the server is a DVR and will damage the recording streams  when this happens.

     

    Only possibly strange with my setup is Ihave a pci-x sata card so that I can have

     

    4 x 3tb WD Reds

    1 x SSD

     

    Anything I should look at to try solve my problem?

     

    Thanks

  10. I followed spaceinvaders video and that worked for all containers that I put in proxynet. For home-assistant container that was in host mode, I left it like that and changed swag configuration to use the IP address of unreal.

     

           set $upstream_app 192.168.2.133;
            set $upstream_port 8123;
            set $upstream_proto http;
            proxy_pass $upstream_proto://$upstream_app:$upstream_port; 

     

     

  11. Did you ever figure this out? I am running home assistant core in host network and swag on it's own network (that works as reverse proxy for those). If I change HA to network it stops working and if I point swag to HA in host mode, it doesn't see it.

     

    Edit: Working - leave HA in host and in SWAG config, just point to IP

  12. Hi, long time mythtv user and new to unRAID and somewhat docker. I struggled to find the instructions on installing the app in docker. I cannot RDP to desktop to configure the backend is my problem. Here is what I did.

     

    In Apps, search for 'mythtv', then tell it to search in docker hub. 

     

    Found sammonsjl/mythtv

     

    In the UI click advanced view

     

    Repository added :29-fixes to end of line 

    Under Extra Parameters I added: --hostname=mythbackend

    Under Network type: host

    I mapped 

    /mnt/user/appdata/mythtv/config/':'/home/mythtv':'rw'

    /mnt/user/appdata/mythtv/data/':'/var/lib/mysql':'rw'

    /mnt/user/storage/':'/var/lib/mythtv

    I set a variable CONFIG_MODE to 1

     

    I have tried to go to http://unraidhost:6760 with web browser, that times out. I have tried rdping to unraid hosts, also doesnt connect.

     

    I don't know how to look at logs to tell what is going on.

     

    I think I have also defined some ports but that didn't seem to work.

     

    This is the command that runs to start the docker container:

    /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker run -d --name='mythtv' --net='host' -e TZ="America/New_York" -e HOST_OS="Unraid" -e 'CONFIG_MODE'='1' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/mythtv/config/':'/home/mythtv':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/mythtv/data/':'/var/lib/mysql':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/storage/':'/var/lib/mythtv':'rw' --hostname=mythbackend 'sammonsjl/mythtv:29-fixes' 
     

    Any help would be great, I'm really lost here. I will be using hdhomeruns with this install

     

    Thanks

     

    EDIT: I am going to go the route of VM using mythbuntu repo. It does not look like unRaid/docker/mythtv is that popular.
