Hello @PanicMechanic007 Quick Question: If I'm changing the login method of my storage location, from for example WebDAV to SSH, Can I resume running my backups the way they were or is the data that has been saved been deleted in the process? EDIT: Also I noticed how the Job itself is only peaking at 10MB/s at a second. Is this intended or because of encryption speed limits etc?

@PanicMechanic007 I think you need to take another look at the Brave Browser Issue from a couple of days ago, ‘cause it appeared again today. Also: My Jobs keep failing and the large on failed after 17hours? Ish something. Diagnostics are attached. vault-diagnostics-2026-07-25.zip EDIT: Yesterday, so the 25th, I did a complete purge and re-install of Vault. Partially because I increased the size of the storage target and it seemed like, it had borked the backup files of all of the previous backups. And second because I thought it might help with the current, non connecting issue to the vault daemon. Eversince the 09 update, I can't connect to the vault page, both with the shortcut up in the unraid list and throught he "Connect to WebUI" in the settings of vault in the settings tab of unraid. It will keep display connecting like this: That's the current state of it and it is like that ever since the 09 update. From a MacBook or iPad, both Safari, it works perfectly. Just not on Brave. Through Firefox Developement Edition, it works fine too. Even tho both Browsers are pretty locked down when it comes to privacy settings so idk why's that. vault-diagnostics-2026-07-26.zip Newest diagnostics are attached, just for the sake of it but that's it. And also: Really sleek improvements over the last couple of updates. This is really coming together quite nicely :) Cheers

I forgot to mention this: Like a couple of days ago, I started a backup run of a roughly 500GB worth of music, 46000files, over a 1000 folders. Obviously it took ages to even hit the first 1%, that‘s not the point, however I needed to hard-stop Vault and restart it because it completely froze. I don‘t know if it‘s related to the amount of files and size or just that I was to impatient but for shits and giggles here are the diagnostics from the last days. Cheers :) vault-diagnostics-2026-07-24.zip

Quick Update: Version 2026.07.10 solved the Brave issue for me completely, so thank you for that. Also: the little File Browser next to the Storage location is a really good add in feature, so THANK YOU for that. Even with filesize indication, I don‘t know how you came up with the idea for this plugin but this is legit better than most paid options out there. Kudos to you:)

I guess so, wonder why that is though. Years back I had massive issues with Firefox but not that weird. Well, we‘ll see I guess

Well, Sometimes it is good to post the random stuff that happens :) For some odd reason, accessing it from an iPad works

Hey, I just wanted to check the current status of Vault through my Brave Browser on my desktop and for some reason It loads endlessly to the point where the browser is displaying a "Tab is not responding, wait or leave?" message. I'll restart my pc but from every other client on my network it works. Just as a heads up, Diagnostics are attached, will post if something changes vault-diagnostics-2026-07-22.zip

Update: Since Plugin Version 2026.07.09, the current, Backing UP VM‘s is possible and it does it without errors or complications. It is slow‘er, though given with best compression and encryption that is not a surprise. So thank you for the work on your side, it now does exactly what I need

Thank you :)

Hello, U‘re right haven‘t thought of this. As requested the Diagnostics File Also: Kudos for the Update Frequency, haven‘t seen this many updates in a while vault-diagnostics-2026-07-19.zip Edit: Version 2026.07.07 is a real good update, performance and UI wise, runs like a champ so far EDIT 2: Since the update this morning, I ran the VM Backup again since why not. 20 Minutes ago, it threw me this error: New Diagnostics are attached as well vault-diagnostics-2026-07-19 - NEW 2ND.zip

One other little thing I noticed just now: In the Documentation it says that a Job can be canceled when it is running, i.e in the Jobs Tab. I think there's a Bug when you have a Job on a schedule but trigger it manually, click Run Now, because on my Jobs Page, I can't cancel a Job that is running now but is actually on a schedule. Could that be a case?

Thank you, I thought writing it all down would be better solution instead of 10 different posts. Beside that Something I came around yesterday: When U select the VM Backup, It took mine 100GB VM around 7 hours to do the initial backup only to end up in an error saying: Failed. Idk if I did something wrong but Is there something I can provide you with so you can take a look at? Don‘t think it is supposed to do that Also: Is there a way to implement a solution that If the Upload is busy i.e for example remote streaming for Plex, to throttle down the upload for Vault? Like a „little“ load balancer? I know its super niche but it is one of the things that came to mind when selecting the date and time for the backup

So first of all: This is the best Plugin/Suite/Dashboard of a BackUp Solution I‘ve seen this far, even tho I have not used many and this is my first deep dive into a complete setup for home use, it works like a champ. So, kudos to you for making it happen! :) Since this is my first time using a backup solution to backup data to a secondary storage solution, in my case a Data Centre, I‘ve got a couple questions and maybe some improvements that could make it easier for everybody or first time user in particular. When I setup my first Job yesterday, I noticed that the the Step-by-Step Setup for a Job is quite handy, in fact it made it really easy to understand what‘s necessary and what not. Since I wanted to explore it a little bit more I switched to Full Form only to find the Advanced Options missing? I was surprised at first but then I read the Note at the bottom, which explains it that when Full Form is used it uses sensible defaults. It‘s not bad but u might want to make that Note a little bit bigger or more noticeable. Speaking of noticeable and first time user: Is there a way of adding the documentation Link to the System Tab on the left? When I used it yesterday, it took me like 15 minutes yesterday to find them, I even thought there wasn‘t any. Again, I don‘t think it is a bad placement it could just be a bit more visible. Speaking of documentation: It ist really good, specially for something that is this detailed so Kudos again. Now to something I might not have understood completely but maybe that‘s something to clarify: In the documentation it is written that „A Weekly Full and Daily Incremental Backups are a good mix/use for Home Server Use“. So far so good, I completely agree with that. But now there‘s the catch: When U setup a Job for the first time, U need to select the BackUp Type, i.e Full, incremental, Differential. I‘m a big fan of incremental so I went with that but then It hit me: Is incremental, when the Job is first started, doing a Full Backup of selected Source and then only doing the incremental changes? To me, at least, it is not clearly visible if it is doing that or just backing up „something“?. It would really be helpful to add that to the documentation or even in the Job creation itself to help users, specially first time users, to set them up. What I did to be sure is to run a Full Backup at first and then switch it to incremental after it had finished. Idk if that is necessary at all but it worked. Aborting or Canceling Jobs: I know that there‘s a way to cancel a running Job, since it is documented in the documentation but for me, it does not cancel the already running job. In Fact: It does nothing. What cancels a Job is deleting it, then it cancels it. I just can‘t imagine that this is the supposed way of canceling one, or is it? I‘d really like to have a „Abort or Cancel“ Option for a job, even when it is not recommended. At least it would help when u run a job for the first time and set something up wrong. More like an Ask: is there away to display the Folder/File Structure on the Target site when Vault is connected to it, like an FTP client does? It does not need to have a lot of functions but a little overview of how the folder structure is would be neat, even tho it is not necessary. Just thought it would be nice. So quite the list but that‘s what the forum is for I guess ;) Jokes aside, this Plugin is a godsend specially for the use case I have. Keep improving it, keep doing it and I guess in a couple of years you‘ll be the standard for all of this. Cheers Alex

Hello, Yes exactly: My array is purely mechanical, therefore when all drives are running it needs quite the cooling to keep all of that cool - to be precise: 6 Fans and 2 CPU Cooling Fans. When all of them run, the whole server is cool - literally. My idea is now, when the array is spundown, to allocate the non-mechanical to a specific fan Group i.e make the then „second“ Drive Group available as an input for the fans to cool them. It‘s oddly specific I know that but basically I have to different sets of drives, mechanical and non-mechanical and both of them need cooling but realising that with only one „Drive Temperature“ Group is not that elegant or practical. Cheers Alex

Hello again, It‘s me again. Since u can select the drives which temperatures are to be pulled for the „HDD Temperature“ Sensor/Value to then set the corresponding percentages, Would it be possible to create two groups so to speak? I know the HDD Temperature is meant to be used for all the drives and what the IPMI/UnRaid gives is limited but wouldn‘t it be possible?

Hey Simon, Thanks for the fast and more importantly helpful answer. I somehow never thought of them as zones but as of individual ports, therefore the question of why only 2 show up in the IIPMI but this makes way more sense haha Actually this will be kinda helpful tbh, given I need to cool chassi and disks separately anyway Thanks again & happy holidays ☺️ Alex

Hello y‘all, After reading almost the entire Thread/Post by now, I am kinda curious on what the „solution“ to hook up fans to a Supermicro H12SSL-NT mainboard is? I know the IPMI Plugin / the implementation of how the ipmi on the board works, only exposes only „2“ Fan Ports or from 1 to 4 so how do I hookup fans to that, so it can be controlled via the plugin? It would be lovely to control more than 2 ports for more groups so to speak of fans but I guess that is more a wish than a possibility Cheers and thanks in advance Alex

He y'all, Thank you for the reply's. As a quick update: Double checked that it isn't Parsec what it makes to "laggy" and it's the same with RealVNC / VNC Connection through UnRaid. No, there is no monitor connected - There is, however, a HDMI Dummy plug plugged into the GPU. Already checked if resolution is the problem, problems present themselves regardless of 2560x1440 or 1920x1080. That is actually a very good suggestion: I'll check right away and see if the 50/50 Split, so 4 cores for VM and 4 cores for UnRaid isn't a great split. EDIT #1: Nope, it's even worse with less than 4 Cores for the VM and more for UnRaid. Stil, it wouldn't surprise me if it the CPU itself, since it is one of the lowest EPYC's you can get. I might try to add a monitor directly to see if it is the video all the together that causes all of this. EDIT #2: With a monitor directly connected to the GPU, it's sort of the same experience, just a bit faster given it is not a networked connection. However, it has the same "running away" issue while editing. So I'm moving the VM on a passthrough SSD to let it have its own device. Cheers, Alex'

I don't know if it's the right category, if not please feel free to change ISSUES: While Videoediting, footage is running away after playing start and pause. With TS Doctor, to Edit recorded TV Shows of my Set Top Box, playing Pause/Start, footage runs away and cannot make a precise cute = skipping frames ends in standing image with 500ms of not moving. = Latency Issue? General not responsive, even after config changes. (Increasing Bandwidth) Gaming is laggy, even with low demanding Games at HD Settings with GTX 960. Parsec : Lags, drifting mouse and it feels like it is running at 10 FPS. CPU at MAX 75% GPU at MAX 70% EDIT #1: GPU Encode is between 40-70% usage. Nothing seems to throttle, there’s no indication that CPU or GPU are a Factor here. Bandwidth edited to 100 instead of 50, encoder set to 64 which is Highest Quality. Desktop / Display still look a little „blurry“. VDISK issue maybe? In general, through Parsec, it feels a little less responsive then through VNC Hardware: UnRaid VM: 8 7252 EPYC Cores, Host Passthrough MB: Supermicro H12SSL-NT 16GB (16384MB) RAM Hyper-V OFF I440fx-7.2 OVMF-TPM 3.0 qemu Primary VDISK Location: Manual, VirtIO, 200G, (Location is a single NVME 2TB) Said NVME: KIOXIA 2TB Gen 4 on an ASUS Hyper M.2 Card (All GEN 4 and Bifurcation enabled) GTX 960 Passthrough with VFIO Netwotk: br1 with virtio Software: WIN11 Images made with NTLite, removed a lot of bloat and did some tuning, however, I’ve been running the same image on two different machines with NO issues. Mind you, without parsec. IDEAS: VDISK Issue? Passingthrough a single NVME for direct and only storage for WIN11? Configuration Issue? Wrong Settings, both on WIN11 and UnRAID? Parsec maybe too? Parsec just being shit? In general, I don’t think that the Hardware is the issue here. Except for one small thing: The CPU, EPYC 7252, is a „special one“ since it is only 8 cores and effectively only 4 Memory Channels. Could it be the case that there’s simply not enough bandwidth in terms of System Memory available to have sufficient performance? ------ So this it the write up of the current state of these issues, with said VM and Parsec. Before the current WIN11 Image, I tested like 6 different ones before this one was stable. From my Point of view, I think Parsec might be the issue but also why is it so? Diagnostics are attached. Thanks in Advance, Cheers - Alex'

From the back of my mind: I can remember something like that too. Specially with VC1 encoded Disks that get transcoded, I got a Notficiation the the image was full. But it was random as hell and only came back when trying to download movies to the iPhone. So you are not alone

As an update: I stil have some "old" VC1 encoded Blu Rays in Plex and played them on a TV where they needed transcoding. The result was, that nothing went wrong or hasn't worked. So the Initial problem stil exists

Thanks for the reply, I was busy during the day. I have the feeling I'm using a different Plex Docker build 'cause mine doesn't look remotely like yours. These are all the mounts I've been running But just as a note, that I remembered now: Whenever I do transcoding, in this case it runs purely on the cpu side of things, I do not get the Issue with the filling up of the image. Funny enough

I can relate to the Notifications/Mails thing, I get them too. and when it fills up

Thanks for the reply: It is set to /tmp. And as far as I know, it does transcode in RAM. What makes me question all of that is just the fact that when I try to download a movie onto my phone in ORIGINAL quality I get warnings from unraid that my vdisk fills up but only with large movies, with smaller ones it does work. but even if's using RAM I've only got 32GB of Ram, so why does it work sometimes and sometimes not? If you catch my drift, so to speak.
