I think i may have found an issue... I used to use the sparklyballs repo koma/headless to clean the library so i could still watch shows while it happened on my htpc. With this new container it just removes everything from the library. Did you forget to include nfs-common or something as I assume it can't scan the nfs mounts i setup for the libraries so it drops them from the db?

I had a similar experience, ended up just rolling it as an ubuntu VM on my esxi box instead. They've really improved their install process, just need to add their repo and apt-get takes care of the rest.

Hey Sparkly, do you have an estimate on a standalone Kodi 15 container? Thanks.

9211-8i P20 has been updated yet again to 20.00.04.00 on May 21 2015, unfortunately I haven't been able to find a change log.

it's worth noting that docker has released their source code to the LXC org, it's probably better to wait and see what happens. In theory docker and LXC will merge.

had some issues with that 6.0 vmdk on a friend's server when updating it to 6.0.1, causes a kernel panic on boot after only replacing the bz* files. Plus it also has recycle bin and system volume information... So I created my own using gparted and dd/syslinux. I stripped out the make_bootable stuff and the config folder to make it nice and clean: unRAIDServer-6.0.1-x86_64.vmdk: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3MWcQtek6PXczhRdDUxTlhVREU/view?usp=sharing

iotop doesn't work with rc4: root@vault13:~# iotop -bash: /usr/sbin/iotop: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory also, any chance of adding atop?

Ah ha! Switched to needo and compiling 15.0 from source now, thanks man.

You can update this without him just by make it re-install from the template. It will rebuild with the stable or whatever version you specify in the EDGE variable. redeploying from template did not work, what do i need to set the EDGE variable to? "15"?

conveniently leaves the same day nzbget 15 is released enjoy!

hmm, I'll have to try again this evening. I edited the xml after it was created then restarted the container, my changes were removed. i currently don't need custom DB names as I'm only maintaining a single profile/db but i figured it would be worth noting in the case that users may wish to run multiple profiles for their kids or something and have separate headless/db instances.

turns out I jumped to the wrong conclusions, I forgot I had a slightly custom db config. can you add an optional variable to define the <name> tag for the DBs? I added it manually to your advancedsetting.xml but it gets overwritten.

they seem to rely on using "clean" for that purpose, but clean doesn't run during video playback so it's kinda useless for most people. i might switch to sickrage

kodi has a function called clean library, it's used to remove any items from the library that have an invalid path. This includes files you've deleted, renamed, replaced, etc. A common example is that sonarr will replace a lower quality episode with one of higher quality. If quality is part of your file naming schemes, the low quality episode is replaced with a high quality episode with a different file name. Sonarr sends an "update" to kodi, which basically just adds the new path as a duplicate entry. Sonarr has an option to push the clean library command, which should remove the old entry. I've never had this enabled before as clean library wont work if a video is playing on the kodi instance that it's executed on. However, now with a dedicated headless instance I should be able to enable this feature and in theory it should work. I was thinking that because the headless instance didn't have my shares mounted in the videos library (like my htpc) then it might not work. I have proven that notion false by wiping my kodi install/profile on my desktop and starting fresh. With a brand new kodi install, attached to the SQL DB, I can still preform a clean library operation. So in theory the headless instance should work for preforming a clean operation from either json api calls from sonarr or via the remote on the webui. I'm fighting with the sonarr devs over the way they "update" the library. sickbeard used to modify the existing library entry's path when replacing or renaming and it's silly that sonarr isn't doing the same, but that's a whole other can o' worm

is kodi-headless not able to preform the "clean" operations on the libraries without the volumes mounted? I've got it updating my mariadb vm just fine, but it's not doing the clean operations when renaming/replacing filers with sonarr. I have to clean the library from my HTPC, which has my movies and tv shares mounted and where I exporting the inital DB from.

just upgraded to 14b and this is the first plugin i've installed. many thanks.

checked newegg canada after reading this and got two HGST NAS 4TB for $179.99 each on sale. Needed a new parity drive and, well, I could always use some more storage I'll sleep better after seeing the failure rates on the 3TB Reds.

If you're using these tools, you're a nerd, dork, geek or otherwise... just embrace it my vote is to keep the name.

Do you mind adding/linking the upgrade instructions to the first post?

any reason why preclear_disk.sh -l would show an array disk?

One annoyance I've found is that the time of the last parity check is not persistent after a reboot. Can this value be store on the flash instead to make it persistent?

I haven't had any issues, but I have it pinned in chrome.
