This is usually fixed with a reboot but I have stuff running and don't want to do that. If I try to connect to the GUI I get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. My docker containers are running fine and I can connect to them without issue. How should I fix without rebooting?

Thanks, I pulled the flash drive out, put it into my Windows machine and it detected and fixed errors. It booted up fine, and now the new drive is rebuilding.

I have four 4 TB drives plus parity and a cache drive. One of the drives has been reported hundreds of errors recently so I bought a replacement and put it in according to this guide.
I checked in the BIOS that the new drive was connected OK with this:
When I boot the server though I get this screen:
What does this mean? Not sure what to do next.

I want to run prom/prometheus in a container in UNRAID. I have added this to keep one year of metrics data to the docker run command:
--storage.tsdb.retention.time=1y
If my container gets updated by unraid, will it pull down a new image and remove this? I updated the container in portainer using Duplicate/Edit but I'm worried the setting will get lost.
Here's the RUN command

I have prometheus and grafana running to record performance metrics for my unraid system according to this guide https://unraid.net/blog/prometheus
I can only see 15 days history though, how can I extend that? Where is it configured? I had a look in the prometheus and grafana settings but couldn't find anything.

Thanks I had to get a new USB as that one was dead. All good now after a restore after I bought a license key.

My server was rebooted today and it gets to the Lime Technology Screen, and I select Unraid OS as the boot option but nothing happens. No errors, but not booting either. Automatic boot just goes in a loop. The only option that works on that screen is the Memtest86+ option. Do I need to restore my flash drive? I'm still on the trial period. Thanks.
UPDATE
I put the flash drive into Windows and Windows reported that there are problems with the drive. Windows could not repair it. When I look in the folders it looks like this:
I had automatic backups switched on but can't find where to restore them. Could someone point to me where I can download the automatic flash backups files?
UPDATE2
I can recover the config folder from the USB drive. I have a backup from 12th Dec but I've added a cache drive and another HDD since then so need to copy over the config? Still can't find where to download my USB Flash drive automatic backups.

Please post the diagnostics.
Diagnostics attached, thanks for looking.

I tried to start one and I get this in the logs:
e":"open /var/lib/docker/containers/3b82aaeb0b3a3bc8871f04da41cb29d8f3a48c22d6fe3e25bcd41eaa79117ca1/3b82aaeb0b3a3bc8871f04da41cb29d8f3a48c22d6fe3e25bcd41eaa79117ca1-json.log: read-only file system"}
I stopped and started the array and now they have all started fine. Any ideas what happened? Which logs should I look at?

If I had to guess, because you didn't have the flag set to clear it as GPT (probably some warning showed up in the script)
Does this look OK? I'm not a hard drive expert lol

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but I ran the preclear docker script on my new 4 TB disk. Next day I added it to the array and now UNRAID is telling me it's clearing. Just wondering what the point of preclear is if UNRAID does it anyway?

I have a local photo library
I use with Photoshop Elements to browse etc
I attempted to locate the library on an unraid share, but it just doesn't play well when remotely accessing the files from the server.
At the moment i have a USB HDD back up running, but have always wanted to get this backed up to my Unraid server, with further parity redundancy.
What is recommended?
Effectively, all I need is an application to check from changes on a networked PC, and sync/copy changes to an unraid share.
Is there a best practices way to do this, and/or a tutorial?
I haven't been able to find a simple solution, but I have to believe there is something available.
Thanks in advance!
I sync all my photos with UNRAID using syncthing. There's a docker image for it.

I put a new Seagate Ironwold Pro drive into my server today and ran preclear. It took six hours to run but slowed down over time. I'm wondering why this might be, perhaps starting at the edge of the disk and moving inwards to the centre?
Io/s and throughput almost halved towards the end.

I'm trying to set this up the first time and spent hours trying to get it to work. I'm hoping someone can help. When I try and connect to the WEB UI I get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED in Chrome from my desktop.
Logs with debug on attached.
I figured it out. On my pfSense WAN router I am using OpenDNS with some filtering rules to protect my kids, no porn, VPNs. There's a firewall rule in pfSense to block all UDP requests to port 53 except for the WAN router which forwards to OpenDNS. Once I added an allow rule for the unraid host in front of this deny rule it's working.

It’s a DNS issue. From your log-
PIA has been having quite a few issues lately. You might try switching to another port forwarding server. There’s a list in the log if you need it.Weird. I just did an nslookup on the unraid host and it seems to be fine.
# nslookup france.privacy.network Server: 10.0.0.1 Address: 10.0.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: france.privacy.network Address: 191.101.31.51 Name: france.privacy.network Address: 191.101.31.52 Name: france.privacy.network Address: 191.101.31.61 Name: france.privacy.network Address: 191.101.31.62 Name: france.privacy.network Address: 191.101.31.41
I then did the same thing from the container and it fails.
sh-5.1# nslookup france.privacy.network ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

I have repurposed my old system into a storage array and it's currently running TrueNAS Core which fits my needs fine.
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4771 CPU @ 3.50GHz
- ASRock Z87 EXTREME3 mobo (6 SATA ports)
- 32 GB RAM
- 4 x 4 TB Hitachi Deskstar in raid-z1
- 2 x 150 GB Hitachi boot-pool mirror
However, I will need to expand the raidz1 pool soon (next six months) as it's 75% full. I don't have any spare SATA ports on my machine so I thought about buying an HBA card and expanding that way.
I then thought that I could spend that money on an unraid license and free up two SATA ports by booting off flash drive, which TrueNAS doesn't really support. I haven't tried unraid before and am thinking of trialling it to see how it fairs.
I use the Syncthing and Plex plugins on TrueNAS, can I do something similar on Unraid? I also have an AFP share for Apple time machine backups. I also have some Windows SMB shares with some of those encrypted with ZFS.
How does the performance compare? Would I need a SSD cache as well with Unraid as it sounds like the filesystem is optimized for writes rather than read performance. Would Unraid meet my requirements above before I go to the trouble of installing it as a trial?
Thanks for any tips.
I want to improve transcoding for Jellyfin

I have just started using my UNRAID server for watching movies, however the server goes to 100% CPU and the video is jittery. The CPU is quite old, an i7-4771 in an ASRock Z87 Pro4 motherboard. I do have an old AMD Radeon R9 380 lying around. Could I put that in the server and get Jellyfin to use it? Would it improve performance? If not, can you suggest a budget graphics card that would do the job?
