    Hi team

     

    I've the same issue a disk has been marked as failed due to bad conexion on an splitter power cable. The splitter has been replaced, and the smart looks fine. But that disk is still in emulated state. 

     

    The link provided by @JorgeB to the troubleshotting wiki does not work as the Re-enable_the_drive section does not exists in the page.

     

    Where can we find that procedure?

     

    Thanks and regards

    I've just found the solution... https://wiki.unraid.net/UnRAID_6/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself

  3. Thanks mate, got the message.

     

    But I'm still having issues with Windows 10 PRO Creators Update 1703 (10.0.15063). I0ve the issues both with 6.3.5 and 6.4.0-RC6 I'm unable to authenticate in the Unraid box via Samba. The option sugested to disable SMB 3.x and SMB 2.x it's not posible to prevent ramsoware atacks that usually spread via SMB 1.0

     

    Thanks

  4. Hi mates.

     

    I'm having a temperature issue with my HP Microserver G7 box. After diging a bit trying to acces the sensors I0ve found that there is a bug in the currently implemented SMBUS / I2C driver, that avoids the correct access to the chip (Nuvotem/Winbond W83795ADG).

     

    The pacth that solves the issue was now merged into the kernel 4.5 branch, but a developer has provided a driver that can be build in other versions of the kernel.

     

    Here you have a bit more information about the issue https://fetzerch.github.io/2015/11/15/hp-n54l-drivers/

     

    Please can be this driver be build as a module in the kernel? Can any body provide that modules for unraid 6.2.4 or a guide how to build modules for unraid?

     

    Thanks in advance, and regards.

     

    Pd: edited as now I've migrated from unraid 6.1.9 to 6.2.4

  5. Hi mate

     

    To enable your board in JBOD you need to flash it to IT mode.

     

    Your HBA, LSI 9266-4i is based on a SAS2208 chip as you can check in this Server@home post.

     

    https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/lsi-raid-controller-and-hba-complete-listing-plus-oem-models.599/

     

    So you can flash it to IT mode following the procedure for SAS2208 chips in this link

  6. Hi mates

     

    The new G8 microsever processor can be upgraded to a better one.

     

    http://b3n.org/installed-xeon-e3-1230v2-in-gen8-hp-microserver/

     

    At the end ot that post you have a list of the processor working or supposed to work with it.

     

    My new G8 will arrive at early september, so I will write a review for unraid forums.

     

    After googling a bit for pictures the CPU heatstink looks farely tall, so probably it should be possible to attach a slim cpu cooler like  the Noctua NH-L9i with only 37mm wich can alllow up to 65W TDP

     

    http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=productview&products_id=50&lng=en

     

    Other option could be this cablematic VU81 cpu cooler with only 15mm tall, remmenber that coolers for LGA-1156 and LGA-1155 are full compatible between them.

     

    http://www.cablematic.co/product/Slim-1U-CPU-Cooler-_open_parenthesis_Socket-LGA-1156-Intel_close_parenthesis_/

     

    I Known that there are only one Fan take in the motherboard, but you can split the cable and connect a second one whitout connecting the pwn wire.

  7. Hi mates.

     

    I use my unraid box apart from the usual NAS usage as a linux jump box to my seedbox. I've intalled ssh, and have a pair of distributed keys so not need to type secure passwords each time I  make SCP / RSYNC / ... from and to my seedbox.

     

    But every time I need to reboot, or when the power comes dowm I loose all the /root/.ssh content and a few scripts I've have in the root's home directory.

     

    There are any way to preserve all the content inside /root directory or there are any prebuilt script that makes it?

     

    Thanks

  8. Hi mates

     

    Since I've upgrade my box to 5.0-RC8a I'm getting thousands of errors in my syslog about enhttp can't find that script. As far as I know mobiquo.php is part of the tapatalk plugin.

     

    Today my emhttp has stopped to work, because my main switch has dead. After just two minutes searching in the forum I've found how to restart emhttp without a reboot comand. And I have first check the processes running in my box. What's my surprise when I've found that emhttp is trying to run that script.

    Why is this trying to start in my box? where can I disable it?

     

    Thanks.

  9. Hi mate

     

    first check de amount of data you have in movies^M

     

    cd /mnt/disk6

    du -hs movie*

     

    It should show you two lines one for the amount of data in movies and another one for the amount of data in movies^M.

     

    If you are lucky Movies^H its empty (it will show 4Kb) so the esaiest wat is:

    cd /mnt/disk6

    mv movies temp_movies

    rm -rf movies*

    mv temp_movies movies

     

    If you have data inside movies^M the procedure is similar but a bit more complicated.

    cd /mnt/disk6

    mv movies temp_movies

    cd movi*

    pwd  -> this command verifies that you are inside movies^M it must show /mnt/disk6/movies\r or /mnt/disk6/movies^M

    ls

    move * ../temp_movies -> can take a while depending the amount of data and the disk speed but should be quick.

    cd ..

    pwd -> verify you are in /mnt/disk6

    du -hs movi* -> to ensure that movies^M is now empty. it should show a tiny size between 4kb to 64kb.

    rm -rf movies*

    mv temp_movies movies

     

     

    That' s all.

     

  10. Hi mates

     

    I just found one strange behaviour. Since a few months ago I have an HP Microserver NL 36, AMD Athlon II NEO N36L dual core 1,3Ghz, 8GB DRR3 RAM no ECC, with 3 WD20EARX and unraid 5.0 beta 14 basic. Last monday I bought 2 WD30EFRX. I stopped the array and replaced the parity disk with a WD30EFRX, and it took 25 hours to rebuild the parity, IO wait meanwhile is always 60 or 70 IO wait. That looks strange to me, but I dont worried to much thousands of read's from both data disk and thousands of writes in the parity disk.

     

    On Thursday I began to preclear the second WD30EFRX, a single full cycle took 35 hours, again an enormous IO wait, also erratical throughput, sometimes 145 mbs, sometimes 110 mbs, but most of time just 45 mb/s. Again my thought was that something really strange its happening. But other people are reporting that in the preclear results thread that 3TB disks, from others vendors also have 45 / 50 mb/s throughput.

     

    This afternoon. I've decided to make a few tests, so I take out of the array both WD30EFRX, and rebuild the parity in the original WD20EARX. What's my surprise when the throughput it's constant 110 mb/s  or 112 mb/s all time, an insignificant IO wait (less than 2%) . And the full parity rebuild less than 5 hours.

     

    Tomorrow I will start a new array with only both WD30EFRX in the internal controller, and after that I will try the same procedure but both disks in an ASUS U3S6 Dual USB3.0 + DUAL SATA 3 PCIe x4 controller.

     

    I suspect that the Microserver's BIOS, can adress 3Tb hard drives, but it has problems with the mandatory LBA 64 that allows full support of 2.2 hard drives or don´t like WD30EFRX variable smart rotational speed (5900 to 7200 RPM). Also I will talk WD support if I can force a fixed rotational speed.

     

    Has somebody found something similar with Microserver  + 3 TB disks? Could be a bug of the Unraid 5.0 B14?

     

    I'll keep you informed of my progress.

     

    Cheers

  11. Hi mates,

     

    I've just received 2 new WD30EFRX (3Tb RED Edition) one of them I forgot to preclear ir so no data. But This is the results.

    The box is a HP Microserver NL36, 8GB of ram, the bios is flashed to the last revision that allows a few more options in the shouthbridge. All ports in ACHI mode full speed. The disk I,m preclearing is in one of the disk slots through the minisas cable. UnRaid 5.0-beta14

     

    It looks strange, in the preclear and postclear phases it begans a 145mb/s pretty good speed, but after a few minutes the speeds progresively slow down till 45mb/s where booth read phases are around 60% it speed up again to 120 / 125 mb/s and then progresively slow down again till finish. All the time there is no body accessing de array and the IO wait in a top command grows till 85%.

     

    When I've precleared mi WD20EARX 10 months ago I don't think they took so long ...

     

    Has somebody reported that slows down?

     

    I will update the pendrive, take a look to the bios and make a new test.

     

    Thanks.
