I hate updates. Everything was working, then I decided to update the Unraid server to the latest build, and all the dockers/plugins/etc. Now whenever Emby DVRs a program from my antenna, the permissions are set wrong and I cannot delete from Emby, most of the time they won't even play. I have to manually go on the server and remove the files. If I go into Unraid Tools->New Permissions, goto the DVR user share and let that run, I can then watch the DVR'd stuff in Emby, but it still won't delete them. I don't know if this is an Emby app issue, or Unraid or what since I updated everything at once. Any suggestions?

I'm currently running 6.9.2 with a variety of plugins/dockers/vms. I've never updated the server, just the plugins/dockers. Is updating the server to the latest stable 6.11.1 relatively safe and painless, or are their things I should be aware of?

I enabled it and the idle usage went to this: Running Emby, transcoding a 4K HDR -> 1080p SDR title it showed this: This was with Emby's throttling off so I could more accurately access load, but I normally run with throttling on the help the CPU. I couldn't figure out how to turn off persistence mode with that command, I tried nvidia-persistenced --no-persistence-mode but it threw an error, so I turned it off with nvidia-smi -pm DISABLED. But having it on didn't seem to affect the GPU, so I turned it back on to save a few watts, thanks. Do you know a recommended way to enable this either with nvidia-persistenced or nvidia-smi -pm ENABLED upon system boot after the Nvidia driver plugin has been loaded? EDIT: I added a script to User Scripts to be loaded at startup of array. If that's wrong let me know, otherwise I'll roll with that.

Watching the GPU Statistics output, it looks as though the card is not entering any alternate power state (staying in P0) now. I don't know if that is the result of legacy mode or because I have dummy plugs inserted or what, but I'm fine with that. The plugin never worked for me in UEFI mode with the 3060, so I don't really know what it was doing, and if it dropped out, I wouldn't be able to see the power state anyway. It only draws around 50w of power even with the GPU not dropping its core clock speed, so nbd.

Is it possible the GPU was entering a low-power mode and that caused it to drop off? Is there a command that can be ran to prevent it from doing that?

The zip i uploaded yesterday was after it dropped out. Looking in the syslog.txt file, at the bottom there are a bunch of these, repeating every few seconds: Aug 18 06:52:12 Unraid kernel: NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x23:0xffff:1204) Aug 18 06:52:12 Unraid kernel: NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0 I just ran one now after the system has been running all night, and I don't see any errors like that now.

@ich777 I got it work - I think. Changed boot/PCI devices to legacy and it then showed up for the first time under the GPU Statistics plugin, but it kept dropping out for no apparent reason. I could get it to drop just by doing different things to access the card, such as going to the Dashboard page where the the load monitor is, going to the Nvidia driver plugin page, running nvidia-smi, it would fall out after doing a couple/three of those things reliably. I then tried different configs of the iGPU being Auto/Enabled/Disabled with it being primary vs PEG1 (3060). None of that seems to matter. If I had a monitor connected and on, it wouldn't drop out that I could see, but if the display shut off, upon a reboot, the 3060 would drop out like before. So then I tried an HDMI dummy plug on the 3060, that didn't work, then tried a DP dummy plug on it and that didn't work, but for some reason having both the HDMI/DP dummies in it hasn't fallen off yet. I've tried the normal stuff to break it and it hasn't and rebooted/cold-booted and it's staying active. I don't really understand why it's working like that, but I'm not going to breathe on it. Thanks for your help. If you want me to guinea-pig some other stuff let me know.

@ich777 for legacy boot mode on my Gigabyte motherboard, I think it's CSM Support -> Enabled, and then Storage Boot Option Control -> Legacy. There is also an Other PCI Devices option that allows UEFI/Legacy, will that one matter? Also, could changing any of this affect Unraid adversely since it's setup to UEFI now?

Most of the posts on the Nvidia forum I've seen from people that have 3060 working are running a 5.8+ kernel.

It is in UEFI, I can try legacy later today. I think secure boot is disabled, will check that also. I've tried an HDMI display and dummy plug, and that hasn't worked. You mentioned yesterday a 3060 user having it working a few pages back. I looked and wasn't able to find that, but I may have missed it. So far in searching I haven't found anybody with a 3060 conclusively working yet, but it's hard to pin down with 3060 Tis coming up in search results also.

This user has the same issue with two 3060s, one EVGA, one Gigabyte. I see he also posted on this thread back on page 43 and was asked to provide a log, but I don't see that he did.

Here's the diagnostics. I've now also tried disabling the iGPU along with having a dummy plug and display plugged into the 3060, along with updating Unraid to 6.10.0, nothing works. The diagnostics file was prior to updating to the latest Unraid, if I can get it working and it matters I'll roll-back. unraid-diagnostics-20210818-0654.zip

I just got the card from EVGA yesterday, so it's probably the latest revision of whatever they do to these things to make them less mineable, I have seen online there are V1 and V2 of some of these LHR cards. It works fine in Windows.

@ich777 I'm at work now and have the 3060 Ti back in, so I can't attach a diagnostics rn. I was using driver v470.63.01. It's an EVGA RTX 3060 Ti XC. On the GPU Statistics page, the pulldown where the UUID would be doesn't show anything with the 3060 installed. There were a few times I ran nvidia-smi and nothing showed, but whenever it did show and I went back to the driver plugin it disappeared. I'm mostly asking because I haven't seen any great success stories searching around and a few pages back someone with two 3060s couldn't get theirs working either, said they didn't show up, so I don't know if it's a problem with these cards right now or what. The motherboard is a Z590 Aorus Elite with an i9-11900K CPU if that helps.
