I guess my upgrade path has hit a brick wall. CPU is Pentium® Dual-Core CPU E6500.

I too would need to continue using the Docker container until I can upgrade my hardware to be able to run a VM without overtaxing my 16 years old system.

Upgraded from 9.5.21 to 10.0.162 using method 1 on page 32 without any issues.

Just curious if you are still using this Unifi Reborn docker since you have two gateways (assuming they are cloud gateways vs. UXG) running the Unifi Network server. How does that work having two instances running on your network? Did you have to update your APs to inform to the gateway instances? I am just trying to understand how the Cloud gateways works with or eliminate the need of running a Unifi Controller docker. I will be deploying a UXG-Lite since I did not quite understand how I would manage the cloud gateways from my current Docker Unifi Controller since they run their own Unifi network server.

Don't know if you have this resolved yet, but yes it is possible to load a self-signed P12 certificate into the Docker container using the keytool command (inside the Docker container) to import the certificate into the Unifi keystore. I believe this is the general commands I used (sorry it has been awhile since I imported my self-signed certificate) ###Runinng shell in docker container docker exec -it container-name sh ### Create a P12 file for Unifi openssl pkcs12 -export -out {your desired pfx/p12 file} -inkey {your private key} -in {your certificate file} -certfile {the signing intermediate} -password pass:{your desired pfx/p12 password} ### Backup the old cert and install the new one sudo mv /usr/lib/unifi/data/{pfx/p12 name as above} /usr/lib/unifi/data/{pfx/p12 name as above}.old sudo cp {pfx/p12 name as above} /usr/lib/unifi/data/{pfx/p12 name as above} ### Backup the old keystore and install the new one sudo mv /usr/lib/unifi/data/keystore /usr/lib/unifi/data/keystore.old keytool -importkeystore -destkeystore /usr/lib/unifi/data/keystore -srckeystore {pfx/p12 name as above} -srcstoretype PKCS12 -srcstorepass {pfx/p12 password as above} -deststorepass aircontrolenterprise -srcalias 1 -destalias unifi

@JorgeB I only plan to replace the one failed data drive. So I will just proceed with the parity swap for just one parity drive and once the failed drive is replaced, I will just replace the second parity with a larger drive. Thank you for the advice.

I have two parity drives (2TB) and one of my data disk (2TB) has failed. I would like to replace the two parity drives with new larger drives and then use one of 2TB parity drives to replace the failed data drive. How can I do a parity swap of the two parity drives and then replace the failed data drive? I see the procedure to swap one parity drive, do I just follow that for each of the parity drive or can I do them both at the same time?

So I found two sources regarding a SFF-8654 8i to 2x SFF-8087 cable by CableCC that may work. In this ServeTheHome thread and a user review of the CableCC on Amazon.

Wow, that would mean 6 adapters for me, too messy. What 8087 backplane are you using (make and model)?

Thank you @Wody for testing the Genuine Modules CAB-8654i8-2x8087 cable and verifying that going directly from a Broadcom 9500-16i and 9600-24i to a 8087 backplane does not work. I will try to email Genuine Modules to let them know. By any chance can you post a picture and information about the 6843+6843-8087 adapter in the working scenario?

Cool! Looking forward to your findings.

@Wody Can this cable be trusted to support SAS/SATA? This is a response to an inquiry I emailed to sales of GenuineModules regarding if their SFF-8654 to 2x SFF-8087 cable supports SAS/SATA or just NVMe.

Wow, I did not realized SFF-8654 to 2x SFF-8087 cable for SAS/SATA were non-existent. I guess I will look at the 9400-8i instead since I do not want to deal with adapters.

How about this? Supermicro X14SBI-F Intel Xeon 6511P Broadcom 9500-8i (3x) - I prefer to split the drives to 3 of the PCIe 8x slots. SFF-8654 to 2x SFF-8087 cable (3x) for the Norco RPC-4224 6 backplanes SFF-8643 to 4x SATA Forward Breakout Cable (for the 4 onboard SATA ports to 2.5" SSD drive cage) As of now, the only online vendor I can find that sells the motherboard and CPU is NewEggBusiness.

The X14SBI-F looks interesting. I like the fact that the Xeon 6700/6500 series have lower TDP versions than the CPUs supported by the X13SEI-F. I just have to figure out how I am going to connect the 6 backplanes of the Norco RPC-4224 to the X14SBI-F.
