Awesome Gary! Thanks. May use a Fractal design 804 as the case. Just went on sale...

True ... and many of us who build mini-ITX servers are very focused on keeping our power consumption as low as possible. For example, my Q25B system idles under 20w @garycase - hey Gary if you read this I am building a small system in the next couple weeks. No more than four drives and some headroom for a few docker containers. Just looking for MB/CPU and maybe Power Supply advice. What would be the best low(ish) power bang for the buck MB and CPU these days? Since I know you are an ECC memory fan let's assume ECC RAM as well. Thanks!

What MB/CPU would people recommend if building in this case today?

To improve the copy speed, add -W (--whole-file), to avoid calculating deltas/diffs of the files. This is the default when both the source and destination are specified as local paths, since the real benefit of rsync's delta-transfer algorithm is reducing network usage.

I don't know what teracopy is but I think it's a windows program. Why would I pull all my data over a wire to a windows box and then push it back over the wire to a different disk on my unraid array? Why not ssh into you array and use rsync? Something like: `rsync -aAW --progress disk2 disk3` ?

I keep getting emails with this: error: skipping "/var/log/docker.log" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. error: skipping "/var/log/syslog" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. error: skipping "/var/log/vsftpd.log" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. error: skipping "/var/log/wtmp" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. error: skipping "/var/log/btmp" because parent directory has insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group should be used for rotation. It was mentioned by others earlier in the thread. Is there a fix? Thanks.

Anyone having difficulty getting cache-dirs to start? I can't seem to get it rolling. I took the script version out of my go file already.

Should I remove the old docker plugin? See attached image.

Got it - thanks for the lightning response

Before I updated to 10a, version 10 showed I only had one single plugin (unRAID Server OS). After upgrading to 10a the old docker manager plugin seems to have "come back" and says it's out of date. Should I update it or delete it?

FWIW I'd love to see this sooner rather than later!

Thanks Justin!

Ummmm... wow everyone is just way ahead of me. How do I convert my cache drive to btrfs so I can even fire docker up? Getting this error: Jun 19 19:56:36 Tower php: /etc/rc.d/rc.docker start Jun 19 19:56:36 Tower php: ERROR: Docker install path (/mnt/cache/docker) must be off a btrfs device

Thanks!!!!!

One more question - I have searched all over and feel really dumb but I cannot figure out how to boot into "Dom 0" mode so Xen is working. I run headless and don't even have a monitor anymore where I could see the boot options - is that what I am missing? Anyway to set to boot with Xen support via .cfg or go files? I really have looked all over but most Xen posts seem to assume you have already booted properly to Xen mode. OK - after more digging I found you can edit syslinux.cfg from the Unraid GUI. Default settings below: default /syslinux/menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest label Xen/unRAID OS kernel /syslinux/mboot.c32 append /xen --- /bzimage --- /bzroot label Xen/unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /syslinux/mboot.c32 append /xen --- /bzimage --- /bzroot unraidsafemode What do I edit to use Xen?
