[unRAID 6 NerdPack - CLI tools (iftop, iotop, screen, kbd, etc.)]

On 5/12/2022 at 1:03 PM, majo23 said:

Hi,

 

with my Xeon W-1350 powerTOP isn't working properly. From what I read, It could be because Powertop 2.13 isn't up to date for my CPU (similar issues with Powertop in the past, were solved by newer Powertop Versions.)

 

There is a PowerTop 2.14 available on Github at www.01.org/powertop , but in nerdpack only 2.13 is the newest - cloud that be right? Could you update it?

Thx

Anyone from Nerdtools read this?

[Nginx not startable / no webUI error in servers.conf:35]

since I had some other issues with Nginx as well - maybe it would be best if I reformat the flash drive completely... 

I can save the array by keeping the Diskorder completely like it was - but what about docker containers? Will I lose them by using a fresh unraid stick?

[Nginx not startable / no webUI error in servers.conf:35]

HI,

I have a big problem I can't connect to my web UI... When entering via SSH and trying to start Nginx manually via console I get:
nginx: [emerg] invalid number of arguments in "return" directive in /etc/nginx/conf.d/servers.conf:35 
 

login as: root
Keyboard-interactive authentication prompts from server:

nginx: [emerg] invalid number of arguments in "return" directive in /etc/nginx/conf.d/servers.conf:35

I also attached the diagnostics log.... maybe someone find something suspicious there

 

Can anybody help me? I searched the web for over an Hour but seems like I'm too stupid to get this fixed

[Quick Question to Crossover lan]

HI,

I have a free 2,5Gb NIC Port on my PC and on my Unraid.

The Router has no 2,5Gb ports so PC and Unraid go to the router with their standard 1Gb NICs.

 

To get a nice local speed between PC and Unraid I want to crossover them. I have quick question about the Subnet for the crossover:

 

My LAN subnet is 192.168.0.x/24  with DHCP beginning behind .50  - so i could easily assign static IPs  -BUT-  isn't it a bit confusing for Windows, if the Crossover IP is within the same subnet?

 

Wouldn't it be wiser, if I gave the 2.5Gb NICs a new subnet?

Because then, Windows would instantly know "hey, this IP is not my standard subnet, it is from my second NIC which has 2.5Gb capacity...."

Sry for a maybe dumb question

 

[Passing through a single Ethernet port while using the second for Unraid]

HI, 

sry for beeing stupid, but all tutroials and posts are talking about using a networkcard or passing through ALL onboard Ports...

but i only need to passthrough a single one (of my two ports) to a vm.

I have a Asus P8B-M which has 2 Ethernet ports. One is in use for unraid the other one isn`t in use and i want to pass it through to VMs....

I managed to get them in separate IOMMU Groups but what now?

 

Using append vfio-pci.ids=8086:10d3 would mean unraid loses both, right? So this would be quite bad^^ How to make only one free?

 

 

 

Here is my network config for port 2 (eth1) that i want to passthrough....

i tried to "Port Down" it, but didnt helped...

 

Maybe changing the VM XML? But i have no clue where to start, guides always refer to Networkcards but not to a single onBoardPort....

 <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:3f:fd:d9'/>
      <source bridge='br1'/>
      <model type='e1000'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x06' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

any ideas?

 

[Issue with Plex and GPU passthrough (after sometime, the docker isn't using the GPU anymore)]

HI:)

About my NAS:
Im using the lasted Unraid version and this Plex Docker . I have a 1050 ti passthrough to the plexdocker (also installed the Nvidia Driver Plugin). The following Problem also existed with the last Versions of UnraidOS, nvidia driver and Plex Versions - so the issue seems to be unrelated to a version of one of them.(My NAS is running 24/7)

ASUS P8B-M + Intel® Xeon® CPU E3-1240 V2 + ECC RAM + GTX 1050 ti

I passedthrough the GPU by using the "--runtime=nvidia" parameter and the "Nvidia Visible Devices:" statement with the GPU ID (i guess u know what i mean^^ sry for my poor english)

 

 

Description of the problem:

Sometimes the videoquality in Plex is very poor. If that happens I cant select an other Playbackquality in the plexplayer. That is very strange, because normally i can choose the videoquality when playing a movie. 

 

ALSO im using the GPU Statistics plugin, and when this issue is occurring, it isn't showing any load on the GPU.... normally when playing a video, the plugin shows a bit of load on the GPU and it also shows that the plexdocker is using the GPU at the moment. 

So... i think there is a issue with the docker using the GPU... maybe the GPU is "disconnecting" from the docker, then the docker is faulty and shows bad quality because the rest quality would normally been provided by the GPU - but is then lacking....

 

As I said, when restarting the docker - all is fine again...

ANY IDEAS?
Any ways to get a bit more from the logs? 

 

[Quick question about Security (IP BANN & 2FA)]

HIHO,

 

sry for my bad english & noobynes^^

qucik question:

Even with an encrypted Array - What about brutforce? Where and how to set up the timebarrier** to the webUI?

**(So if u tried 3 times the wrong PW u have to wait 5 min or something to try it again)

I wanted my web ui to be accessable in the WAN, so i routed a port to the WebUI (just for testing) - is there a possibility for more options about an IP BANN or the timebarrier?

 

there are some 2FA ways via docker, but there aren't really much guides for it***, and a more nativ build in security would make me feel better - any information on this? :)   ***(im surly spoiled because of Space invader Ones epic nice guides^^ :D ) 
 

Is a docker as 2FA really secure? What about layer8 fails? Could a wrongly builded 2FA docker break my neck?

 

THX :)
