  1. Unraid is meant to run constantly (imho). You should want unraid to run on a machine in the basement and let in run forever. In your living room, you want a "player" to make things like Netflix, Disney, and your "home" media work together. Don't use unraid as a media player. Happy to help if this is as clear as mud.
  2. I'm too curious how you got NFS to work in Windows and why/how you even tried? Most folks have a hard time making SMB work in windows (despite it being the native format).
  3. Really?... PM me and stop flaming me (like I said you would).
  4. How is that relevant to their array/disk/connection issues? I've found the WebUI will show different "array/disk/connection" issues/things based on different forms of connections. I can be local; pretend local via VPN... It shows different. Maybe it's just me and my network. I'm sorry to have obfuscated things.
  5. I would recommend sharing the printer from a "client/user" computer on the network. What I mean is, plug the printer into a computer (assuming its not a network printer) and then share the printer from that computer. Unraid isn't really a printer server. I hope that makes sense and helps. 6.

    Help: Mail backup

    Very few people seem to know/share what "core" POP/SMTP or "the other email ones" are anymore. Best find a really good ISP that isn't your actual Internet Service Provider. If you find a good email server within unraid (docker, not VM), let me know. 6.
  7. I'm not sure what to say except cache pools MUST be btrfs and array drives MUST be xfs. People will flame me for my absolution, but it's "mostly" correct. Changing formats requires data demolition. You already know that. 6.
  8. If SMB shares "disappear" then someone/something has write access to the places those "things" exist (jmho). If not running NetData docker fixes things, well... go ahead and start it up again to test (for the fun of it?). What is NetData? (<-- I ask that in earnest and not feseciously). 6.
  9. I'm so stupid when it comes to this stuff, but my Manjaro Linux box (arch, like unraid, as I understand it), asked me to upgrade my kernel recently. I didn't know what to do, but followed "things" and Manjaro is working great. I thought unraid might upgrade kernels, but I thought Manjaro would do the same. I only say this because you said, "Kernel panic reoccurring" and, assumed "kernel" to be the linux kernel. I'm probably wrong. Now, I'm worried unraid is running on an old kernel and won't fix it. 6.
  10. Damn @remotevisitor... That document is something most people don't read... "We make use of Google Analytics to track non-personally identifying information" (<-- from your agreement that you agreed to). Personally, I think anyone should be able to transfer their license. Some people will argue there should be a "value add" and others will agree there's no way to quantify it. 6.
  11. I would say this is a known problem, because it happens to me (a little different) more often than not. What's "Mothership"? (don't answer that). 6.
  12. My bad... I would suggest new hardware, but budget is always EVERYTHING. If budget allows, find a way to make a new machine while the "old" one fills the needs of "family" doing stuff. I wish you the best, but I know nothing of sinology NAS. 6.
  13. Sorry... I guess my time will come to have a linux box (bare metal) crash... (knocking on wood). I really do hope your Unraid PC starts working as it should. Or, I could ask... What machine/computer is Unraid installed on and what machine/computer are you "logging" in from? 6.
  14. You got it wrong... You want your Synology(sp?) for backup. Build new and backup to old. If you do as I say, and your not already 79 years old, you'll be happy you "listened" (read). My server is, 3x12tb + 1x6tb; backup: 18tb NAS (4x6tb) + 10tb USB + 10tb USB +... not saying. 6.
  15. The Unraid WebUI is not reliable. Might be this time... I would be shitting if I saw that in the morning. Wait... I've seen that shit. Relax... You have a backup and everything will be fine after another vacation spent restoring everything from the backup. My wife would say it's no problem at all, and I need to cut the lawn. 6
  16. I thought my UnRaid crashed, but it was just the WebUI. I know it wasn't the UnRaid server because everything still worked on the server. Still, the UnRaid WebUI said everything crashed; which is exactly what I thought. Take some time and test. The UnRaid WebUI needs some serious work. 6.
  17. I always have all disks spinning (old debate). Clutching at straws... You have taken the array offline and done a clean restart? 6.
  18. The UnRaid WebUI isn't reliable. Can you test if everything is actually working?... the shares, the media, etc.? I ask because my WebUI went "crazy" and then my daughter (after telling her everything wasn't working) said everything is working just fine. She was right; everything was working, except the UnRaid WebUI. 6.
  19. Someone from Limetech should be here soon (or PM you). I'm assuming you can't boot at all from the USB that you installed UnRaid on? 6.
  20. Unraid is linux. Linux is free. Test with free linux. If free works... well... do you want/need more? 6.
  21. I read this because its marked [SOLVED]. Clearly, the OP didn't mark it solved. Who moderates this forum? On topic... I've never been able to make GUI boot work. Has anyone? 6.
  22. Need... (#) None of the above? (#) Other... Specify?
  23. I don't know what "toggles" are, unless it's "the thing" turning things off and on (like a light switch). Assuming I understand what we're talking about... I would be really careful moving data from "preferred" or "cache only" or "several other things" shares. I'm no expert, but I've learned to; run "Mover" before making changes that involve my cache drive(s), and everything seems to work out just fine. 6.
