Hello, I run a relatively vanilla unRAID setup. 3x4TB drives with two 1TB SSDs as a ZFS cache pool. Once ZFS was available, I converted the cache pool from BTRFS to ZFS due to continued corruption issues every few months. I'm happy to report that it has been perfect so far. I am seeing a message in the logs that I wanted to ask here for any insights. Ever time the mover runs, I get the following set of error messages: Jan 20 00:40:01 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs destroy 'cache/Backups' Jan 20 00:40:01 vader root: cannot destroy 'cache/Backups': dataset is busy Jan 20 00:40:01 vader shfs: retval: 1 attempting 'destroy' Jan 20 00:40:01 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs mount 'cache/Backups' Jan 20 00:40:41 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs unmount 'cache/Media' Jan 20 00:40:41 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs destroy 'cache/Media' Jan 20 00:40:41 vader root: cannot destroy 'cache/Media': dataset is busy Jan 20 00:40:41 vader shfs: retval: 1 attempting 'destroy' Jan 20 00:40:41 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs mount 'cache/Media' Jan 20 00:40:42 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs unmount 'cache/Proxback' Jan 20 00:40:42 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs destroy 'cache/Proxback' Jan 20 00:40:42 vader root: cannot destroy 'cache/Proxback': dataset is busy Jan 20 00:40:42 vader shfs: retval: 1 attempting 'destroy' Jan 20 00:40:42 vader shfs: /usr/sbin/zfs mount 'cache/Proxback' I have tried stopping and starting the array, as well as a complete reboot, but these messages persist. I do have the "Backups" and "Proxback" shares available on my network as NFS shares. But not "Media". However, I do have an arr stack and Plex dockers that have the /mnt/user/Media directory referenced (direct on server, not via SMB/CIFS). Is this an expected error message? vader-diagnostics-20240120-1320.zip

Thanks for your reply! Once the new container is created, would it be as simple to move the app data folder from the old to the new container? Will Postgres automagically update the database you think?

Running unRAID version 6.12.3. I have a Postgres container created by Flight777 to support Joplin. All has been working well, but noticed the app has not been updated in 3 years and is using Postgres 12.5-Alpine. I would like to update to a new version of Postgres, but not lose the data. I can create a new container, such as one of the official ones (postgresql15), but I don't know how to move the data to the new container. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem here on Safari Version 16.2 (18614.3.7.1.5) and MacOS Ventura 13.1 (22C65). Apps tab hangs and locks up the tab completely. Works fine using any other browser. Incognito mode does not have an effect. Turning off all Adblock / reloading tab with content blockers disabled does not work. Any word on this bug?

So, for anyone else here trying to solve this problem, I figured it out. Essentially, the X9 boards are unable to talk to themselves through the shared IPMI/BMC and LAN port. The ping problem was key. I could ping every network address except the unRAID server and the IPMI address. This website here describes the issue in detail. All I had to do was connect another cable to the dedicated IPMI port and into the switch. Then change the setting from shared to dedicated on the network page in IPMI configuration. Boom, netdata immediately started picking up IPMI data. Apparently, the X10 boards are able to do this on one cable.

OK, so the plot thickens. Thanks to @roland, I made this work on my X10 board. Needing more power, I switched unRAID over to a dual E5 Supermicro X9 board this weekend. Everything works, expect IPMI no longer feeds netdata. I was about ready to post this question over at the netdata forums, but thought it may be more appropriate here. ## Environment unRAID 6.9.2, using the Netdata app via the Community Plugins app which uses the official Netdata docker image Netdata reports version v1.31.0-476-nightly Supermicro X9DRi-LN4F+ (BIOS 3.61 dated January 2020) with twin E5-2667v2, 64GB of RAM Configured (successfully in the past with different hardware) to access IPMI via the BMC using the following configuration settings in netdata.conf: As a side note that may be helpful to troubleshooting, I am successfully pulling data from the system IPMI using the unRAID IPMI plugin and that data is moving from Telegraf to Influxdb and finally to Grafana. However, I prefer to use Netdata as my sole monitoring agent. This is the only thing holding me back. Uncommented the freeipmi plugin line in the plugins section. I don't think this is since the intro to the configuration file says these are all the default values: # charts.d = yes # fping = yes freeipmi = yes # go.d = yes Provided specific commands to access remote server: [plugin:freeipmi] update every = 10 command options = driver-type LAN_2_0 hostname 10.1.1.8 username myusername password mypassword ## Problem/Question I switched from an X10SL7-F motherboard with an E3-1231v3 to the subject motherboard. IPMI was successfully feeding Netdata. With no configuration changes, I moved the unRAID USB stick and five drives to the new machine. All came back up as expected, with the exception of IPMI no longer works in Netdata. ## What I expected to happen Given that the IPMI data is successfully being harvested by unRAID and sent via Telegraf to an InfluxDB and Grafana instance, I have to think it is a specific issue with the remote access configuration to the specific board. I have verified on the Supermicro website, that this board is IPMI 2.0 compatible I have tried to use the command line to gain additional information on debugging reading through the netdata learn webpage, and it is pasted below: /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d # ./freeipmi.plugin driver-type LAN_2_0 hostname 10.1.1.8 username myusername password mypassword 2021-11-08 22:10:53: freeipmi.plugin ERROR : MAIN : ipmi_monitoring_sensor_readings_by_record_id(): connection timeout 2021-11-08 22:10:53: freeipmi.plugin FATAL : MAIN : freeipmi.plugin: data collection failed. # : Invalid argument The odd thing is that the response is exactly the same if I provide an IP address of a different computer that doesn't have IPMI/BMC. I have also tried the "debug" option and I haven't been able to gain any helpful information there. I have the default unRAID container settings, which has the network set to "host". I am unable to ping the IPMI address, which may be the root of the problem. However, I used the default container settings on the other machine, so this may be a red herring. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Wow. Thank you. I was able to use the remote monitoring option of the plugin, which worked perfectly. For those who are wondering, I passed command line options in netdata.conf to my IPMI "host" IP address, along with my normal username and password to access the IPMI interface on the LAN. I have a Supermicro X10 board. Appreciate the help! I had missed that option before.

Good evening (at least where I am): I love this software and the beautiful graphs it creates. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to enable IPMI monitoring. I know it is available, because I have been successful in getting the ultimate unraid dashboard working and I can see data in my unRAID dashboard. However, I can't seen to find any instructions on how to enable the freeipmi.plugin.
