Hey guys, Read the FAQ, started the ddrescue for 2 unassigned drives. One drive was readable but windows crashed (moms laptop) so when putting it in my unraid server to see if I can copy files across to my array. She wants to backup her photos but it keeps coming up with loads of errors while copying. So i found ddrescue and thought I would try that. I am busy running it to another unassigned hdd i have running in my server. It is on Pass 5 and recovered 98.32% but it has come down to like 100-2000 B/s. It is still running and i see the read errors keep going up. I am pretty sure this last sectors will just be unrecoverable after 5 passes but it has been running for nearly a week and I cant be bothered to wait any longer. I have never used ddrescue so was wondering if I can stop this and then see whats been copied across? Do I just mount the 'new drive' as an unassigned drive and see whats on it? is it as simple as that? dont want to interrupt this if its unusable anyway. Thanks for any input.

Cheers thanks mate will look into delugevpn support thread then. much appreciated

Hey @binhex, Wondering if you can help me. I have had the delugeVPN working fine and still running fine with PIA(confirmed by setting up proxy on laptop and still getting VPN IP address). Jackett has been passed through delugeVPN container for quite a while and no issues until this past weekend where I am not sure what changed. My server for the most part is automated so I never really login other than to maybe sonarr/radarr to queue a download if something isnt automated. The issue is Jackett seems to have stopped working, its not connecting to the GUI and on sonarr and radarr it cant search the indexer I had setup. If I remove the extra parameters(--net=container:binhex-delugevpn) pushing it through the delugeVPN container and set it back to bridge then it connects to the GUI fine so seems the container is working. I tried clearing the appdata files and starting fresh with Jackett but I am not sure what else to try. I am not sure why the GUI refuses to work now through the delugeVPN container. Any ideas?

Cheers, that sorted it, now my issue is with Jackett not working with IPT at the moment but thats another topic all together

Hey Guys, Sorry if this has already been answered, my searching skills are just not working today. I have made a mess up of my unraid install, it was my first time using the OS and I installed so much stuff on here that it's really cluttered. Thanks to just using it as a testbed to see what works for me and what doesn't. But now I have installed some new hardware and things are just acting weird so I figured probably a good idea to start off with a fresh install and get the stuff I know I use back on and all the rest not to bother with. One quick question. I have stuff like Sonarr and Radarr and I really dont want to lose what I have configured inside of them. Same for things like plex. How easy is it to copy just the config files for those dockers so when I setup a new install of unraid I can have my old settings back in place(im kind of noob at this)? I really dont feel like adding all the series and movies again Thanks

any idea how to download the PIA next gen zip file? i followed the error message in the log file pointing me to Q19 on github and in there it has a link to PIA nextgen server ovpn files but that link is dead. Any ideas?

ok interesting, thank you. Ill give that a go and see how I get on with it.

Hey Everyone. I have just about got unraid running perfectly. There is only one more issue that is outstanding that I just cant quite wrap my head around. I have watched 2 different videos about USB passthrough and IOMMU groups and I think I have everything right. I have an asus z170 pro gaming m/b. It has 2 USB controllers on it. (see image with IOMMU groups pic) IOMMU group 3 is one USB controller which has my USB audio interface, Mouse and keyboard attached. IOMMU group 11 is the one where my Flash drive is attached. My VM (win 10) has the first one 'passed through' (see attached VM pic) Currently the VM is on, but none of the USB devices are working. no keyboard and mouse working. What am I missing? Thanks for the help

So just an update, since this post I've run the VM multiple times and it hasnt crashed once. Honestly dont know why it was crashing everyday and now its been rock solid again. Typical take the car to the dealer and its fine type situation haha. Anyway thanks for the quick response. I'm now trying to troubleshoot some audio issues using an external USB audio interface for recording guitar but there are strange pops and crackles happening on the audio. Will search the forums and if I come up short will create another post.

Thanks for the response, Ill try run the VM today and see if it locks up. Usually has happened each day at some point since having the server back in the studio. Ive setup the syslog to mirror to the flash for now. Will report back once its unresponsive again.

Hey All. I am currently testing Unraid and have a pretty good setup working for me. Mostly its a media server but I am running VM's (Win 10) for some light gaming but mainly for my music production and for media creation (adobe suite) I had my server off for a week, doing renovations to the studio, brought the PC back to the office/studio and in the past 4-5 days I have had these weird lock ups on my VM that has been working perfectly fine before the renovations. The VM completely locks up. No mouse or keyboard working. If I go to the VM's tab in unraid that just spins in a circle and I cant access the VM tab at all but the rest of the server is working as expected. Plex still runs fine. All my dockers are working fine. On reboot the VM's work again and I havent quite been able to figure out when the lock up is occuring. Sometimes happens when im just doing light internet browsing. Other times I am away then come back and its locked up, seems to vary in time. So I wasn't sure how to troubleshoot this. The last lock up happened some point last night between 7pm-10:30pm when I was away. Shut the server down at about 11 trying to do some troubleshooting. Turned it on this morning and downloaded the diagnostics (do i need to do that before shutting down the server?). Anyone know what to look for? Thank you chris7r-diagnostics-20200914-0951.zip

Just an update, Managed to get it booting to windows. My NVMe was installed with legacy bios mode, so needed to use seabios to boot properly to windows.

Hey Everyone, Busy testing unraid and I am having an issue I cant quite work out what is going on. Hoping someone has noticed my mistake. I got a 6700k cpu, Asus Z170 pro gaming motherboard. set my flash drive to be on a seperate usb controller to the rest of the motherboard. Set my gpu in the bios to be on the icpu graphics. all boots well into unraid. I have a 1070 which I want to pass through to a windows 10 vm. I also have a Samsung 970 evo plus NVMe drive with windows on for passthrough. Followed a couple guides by spaceinvaderone on YT to get passthrough working. When I setup the windows 10 vm. Not worrying about the 1070 passthrough for now. Just want it to boot to windows on the NVMe drive. It immediately goes to start PXE over IPv4. eventually just gets to shell and never boots into windows.
