  1. Any thoughts on making a copy of the current linuxserver.io unifi appdata and then configuring the reborn container to the location of the appdata copy?  Will the reborn unifi be able to use the copy of the linuxserver.io appdata so that no restore is required and hopefully I retain my SSL self signed certificate (I don't recall how I got it to work, but I am hoping to avoid having to do it again).
     

     

  2. Still on 7.2.95 but just checking in after a little over year to see what's up.  On first read here's is my two cents opinion:

     

    1. One container solution is simpler and less moving parts to break.  The unknown is an unestablished container developer?

     

    2. Two containers solution sounds like it would be a nightmare for casual users (like me) to keep updated since there are now twice or more moving parts to worry about.  However, the containers are maintained by established developers.

     

    Operating under the KISS mantra, I would prefer a one container solution.  Let's put it this way, if I was brand new to Unifi and looking for a way to run it on unRAID as a docker container, I would most likely opt for the one container vs the two containers solution.

    What X7 motherboard are you using?

     

    My X7SBE has an add-on daughter card (AOC-SIM1U+) to provide IPMI functionality.  I have a feeling the IPMI firmware (V1.64) is just too old to work with IPMIView.  I also have a Supermicro A1SRi-2758F with built-in IMPMI functionality on the motherboard and IPMIView works fine.  So I may be SOL with my unRAID server.

  4. Next time I have to reboot, I will see if I can enter the BIOS during boot before unRAID even loads.  If my keyboard responds and I can navigate the BIOS, then at least I can eliminate IPMIView as the culprit.

  5. IPMIView 2.17 and 2.20.

    I will try to downgrade to IPMIView 2.14 (don't have 2.15) to see if that solves my issue.

     

    Edit: Nope, my keyboard input is not responding even with version 2.14.  Could it be some configuration with the IPMIView software?  I think it used to work until I upgraded unRAID and lost the local console screen, but never looked into it until now since I never had a need to access the local console for a long time.

    Added the recommended command to my /boot/config/go and rebooted.  It did not work.  Looked like the local console is blanked out as part of the boot process because I see output scrolling and then the entire console goes blank when the server finished booting.

     

    Should I insert the command before or after this line in the /boot/config/go?

    I had it after.

    IPMI console should still work, do you get a blank screen during/right after boot or after some minutes, by default console is blanked after a few minutes. 

    I lose the screen after a few minutes after boot.  If I have it up at boot, then I do get the IPMI console and can see the local console output.  It appears like unRAID goes into a screen saver mode where the local console disappears because IPMI will report a "No Signal" if I start a KVM console.

  8. I used to be able to login via the console via IPMI.  Now I just get a blank screen or IPMI reports no signal.  Is there a setting I need to enable to get this feature back?  I am currently on 6.11.2.

     

    I like the console login via IPMI because I can open multiple sessions (Shit+function keys ?) to run multiple preclear sessions.

     

    I can use Putty, but then I would need to keep my computer running if I don't want to lose the preclear sessions.  I haven't had the need to add or format new disks for years, but now I am planning to deal with the eventual deprecating of reiserfs by replacing my 2TB disks with larger disks.

    Just an FYI in case you notice docker image utilization rising.  The last two unifi-controller updates I have done left behind orphan images.  These are not visible unless you go into the Advanced View on the Docker page in the unRAID WebUI.

     

    Deleting these two orphan images reduced my docker image utilization by 7%.

     

    Not every update will necessarily result in orphan images but in my case it did.  It is worth checking.

     

    Thanks for the tip.  I had 5 orphaned images.

  10. Successfully upgraded Unifi Controller from 5.14.23-ls76 to 7.1.66 by changing the repository field to linuxserver/unifi-controller:7.1.66.

    All six sites with Unifi AP AC Pro and Lite  devices are now running firmware 6.0.15 (upgraded from 4.0.54) prior to upgrading the controller software to 7.1.66.  Looks like everything is running smoothly, let's hope things remain stable.  If so, I should be set for another 3 years🤞


    Not a big fan of the screen real estate waste of the new GUI.  I prefer the more condense view so I can display more columns without having to scroll horizontally.  Another peeve is now it is harder to determine which site I am looking at since the site name is no longer displayed.

     

    Thanks for all the help.

    You can just copy/paste the tag numbers.

    Thank you!

     

    I see multiple tags for 7.1.66.  Am I correct to assume that the tags without the -ls### would check for updates?  So if I just want to stay on a specific version, I would use linuxserver/unifi-controller:7.1.66-ls157 instead of linuxserver/unifi-controller:7.1.66?

  12. Updated from 6.9.2 to 6.10.3 via the GUI.  After downloading the newer version, I clicked on reboot in the GUI as prompted and the server froze with a kernel panic.  I had to reboot via IPMI and the server booted up under 6.10.3 and started a parity check, even though a parity check had just been run at the beginning of the month.

    Now my SSL key and HTTPS certificate is not working.  Other than the SSL key and HTTPS certificate, everything seems to be running.
