Hi seems like I'm having some more issues with unraid for some reason, all that has changed to my knowledge is that I recently did the latest upgrade that came out, now when I try to connect to my guacamole docker i get to the domain but the error that pops up is : Error An error has occurred and this action cannot be completed. If the problem persists, please notify your system administrator or check your system logs. It even seems to do this when hitting the webgui link from the docker itself. Any Ideas?? unraid-diagnostics-20240903-0157.zip

I think JorgeB with the W again, I could have sworn I had set the power plan in windows on the guest to High Performance, for some reason it didn't seem to take I shall see if it works now thanks again.

I've checked the logs and can't figure out why its doing this , I checked the free space and there is plenty, Have included the Diags this is the reforger server VM: unraid-diagnostics-20240901-1554.zip

As usual guys thanks for the answers what Jorge suggested worked great for removing those drives and I have yet to try the mover thing but that was gonna be my next question , thanks again

As promised here are the diagnostics unraid-diagnostics-20240823-0453.zip

I'm not sure if this is an issue with mover or an issue with my cache pool itself but I'm unable to to remove an nvme drive I have in my cache pool, it's the one remaining issue I have with my Unraid server. So here's the rub, I have set ALL my shares to run off of the array, in preparation of removing my entire SSD cache pool and redoing it with JUST sata SSD disks (so I can use the 2 nvmes in my gaming rig). So what I have now is a pool made up of 3 sata ssds and 2 nvme drives. I have read through all the guides that I can see on removing pool drives and they all say 2 things (can't be done in a raid 0 pool), and that all u have to do is remove the drive restart the array (so long as it's set to the correct raid level) and it will rebuild the cache pool WITHOUT the drive you removed. However I DON'T get that result and instead I get the too many Disks missing error. Been racking my brains for days and can't figure it out but it's probably something stupid. My cache pool is a btrfs file system and it has been converted from a raid 0 to a raid 1 via the rebalance area in the cace drive menu. I would just remove all the disks but there is like 500gb stored on my cache pool and if really rather not loose ANY of it. Thanks in advance and I can post screenshots if needed , I will edit this post and add my diagnostics files when I get back to my PC. Thanks in advance you guys and girls.

It appears I'm now running in Uefi mode. I had to set the bios os rom setting to Uefi AND legacy, then as Jorge said select the Uefi version of the unraid USB in the boot menu. Running this command (as found online to check what my system booted as) returns the following: dmesg | grep "EFI v" [ 0.000000] efi: EFI v2.31 by American Megatrends [ 30.456329] isci 0000:05:00.0: Unable to obtain EFI var data for OEM parms Which I gather means unraid has booted using EFI, please correct me if I'm wrong. thanks

Will check when i get home at work at the moment.

same result if I switch the boot modes to Uefi as opposed to legacy.

It doesnt get that far after disabling csm and rebooting it gets stuck on post code 97 with a black screen read above. The only way I van get it to boot again is by re-enabling legacy mode via CSM AFTER manually resetting the bios with the physical jumper.

Yeah I'm aware of that , but if I disable it the machine doesn't post and gets stuck on post code 97 as mentioned above. Hence why I was asking if anyone with the exact same components (motherboard) knew the CORRECT settings, or had experienced this.

Just wondering if anyone has a similar hardware setup to me and has achieved this. I'm running an ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS motherboard and I'm trying to force Unraid to boot into UEFI mode however whenever I turn off CSM mode on my motherboard and thus have it boot to uefi, the motherboard gets stuck on post code 97 which according to the manual is "Console Output Devices connect" and just hangs there. Once I reset the cmos with the jumper as described in the motherboard manual the machine boots again, albeit in legacy mode. Unraids EFI folder does NOT have the ~ attached to it, but still seems to boot in legacy mode, what gives???

Cool Will Check it out thanks.

Hi All, Sol I write this after what seems and eternity of searching for a good answer, like any goof little I.T. Professional I have multiple PC's in my household, a combination or Windows Laptops, Windows Desktops (and Servers) and some (not a Linux expert by ANY means at all) Linux based machines, (Unraid , Prox Mox). Now what I'm looking for my sound strange but I'm looking for a solutions to BACKUP my LINUX boxes INCLUDING my unraid array and usb etc. to a WINDOWS machine. I presently have a windows machine that I am using as a backup server with 20TB's of space on it. For my other windows machines i typically just make full disc images of the hard drives and transfer them over to the backup server on a semi-regular basis (nothing mission critical on those pc's), however here's where I find a problem , If i search methods to backup my UNRAID ARRAY and CONFIG to A DIFFERENT WINDOWS PC there seems to be almost zero articles on it , with most of them showing how to backup TO an UNRAID ARRAY. This is obviously the opposite of what I'm trying to do , Ideally I would like a windows application (preferably open source) that is capable of backing up both Windows , Linux, UNRAID and potentially MAC devices to said windows backup PC) is this even possible?? Thanks, MM

Thanks I timed it and I had to set it to 150 seconds , it does seem like an awful long time though.
