Hi KNE You will find my thoughts and problems with Arrow Lake on another thread in this forum: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/176866-intel-15th-gen-arrow-lake-thoughts/page/5/#findComment-1560480 Yes, I think there is a dedicated driver for the Realtek 8126, with my ASUS board my solution was to install the needed driver (Realtek 8125 in my case) from the apps as the last part of my rebuild. The driver needs a restart and when I exahnged the board with the next restart the NIC worked without any problems. Actually I found with sensors-detect that there is an unknown chip which could be a sensor and since on my board it should be a nuvoton chip and after a lot of research in different forums I tried it with "modprobe nct6775 0xd806" and now the sensors are working and I get the MB Temperature and the Fan Speed of the CPU. Next problem is that the case fans are intentionally turned off when not needed and even the command sensors doesn't show them, but they are available in Fan Auto Control and apparently working but they are not shown on the dashboard. Hopefully I will find a solution for that. The problem with powertop still needs to be fixed, I tried different BIOS-options (it is a really hard way to do trial and error since Unraid needs his time for booting and the shut down process) but I only see C1 to C3 ACPI. Man, I think I remember on the first run of Unraid with this new board I was able to see the page with all the different C states. As this was the expected thing to see I did not look attentive and so I am not completely sure I think I saw the C States were going up to C8. If I find a solution for this I will make a new post. @TxCrudeHauler : If you use powertop and get all the C states shown it would be very kind to tell me your power management setting in bios, there should be not to much difference between MSI and ASUS. Actually my board with onboard iGPU, three NVMEs and three HDDs needs about 55 W in idle, I hope that I can lower this but without seeing what the CPU states are makes this a little difficult. Sven

As my Arrow Lake build now is ready and running here are my thoughts: with Unraid 7.1.3 I did not notice any problems directly related to the CPU I have one video cutting VM (debian) and do some H264 encoding -> this is blazing fast, my old I5-11500 used the full capacity on the CPU on one encoding-instance, now on one encoding-instance on my 285k it only uses about 66%, but I think this could also be related to the changes made for VMs in 7.1.3 (CPU now is migratable and other stuff), with two encoding-instances the full capacity is used and without doing any benchmarks my enconding is 3-4 times faster than before (regarding the time it needs) bigger problem after upgrading to 7.1.3 and the new board and CPU was that the mentioned VM did not start, after a lot of pain and trial and error I was not able to save the VM and had to set up a new VM, but there is no data involved, only the settings of the needed apps were lost, but I did not use the VM after updating to 7.1.3, so this could also be the problem iGPU works also very well and fast, I use the iGPU with a Tdarr-Docker and Tdarr makes H265 from the encoded H264 (maybe the VM is now fast enough to directly encode to H265, I will see, on my old I5-11500 there was no way to directly encode to H265, encoding and reencoding was ways faster than direct encoding, maybe I will have a try) and as on my last setup with I5 encoding from H264 to H265 on the iGPU uses quite low resources and while the iGPU is available it should also have a job to do. As these processes are fully automated I don't know exactly how much faster these processes are but the speed for reencoding is also quite impressive Problem with the iGPU: as I never touch a running system the Tdarr was quite old and I had to update Tdarr to the actual build and had also to use the new version of my preferred Tdarr-Plugin to get it work So, if anybody is planning to use Arrow Lake, for me the migration was a little bit tricky and I still have some issues with the new motherboard, but actually I would say it was worth the pain. Sven

@Maximo101 Thanks a lot, there where no problems with the NIC (installed the plugin before shutdown for rebuild), but the I got a few problems, since this is the thread for Arrow Lake I started a new topic under "ASUS Prime Z890M Plus Wifi - Problems with Sensors and BIOS Options". I will give some feedback to arrow lake as soon as the system runs smooth, but when changing the board also my most used Debian-VM crashed and I can't test the performance of the CPU and iGPU as this debian-VM is my video cutting system (the main reason why I wanted MORE POWER) and now I have to set up an new VM. Sven

Hi! After upgrading my Unraid-Server with the new ASUS Prime Z890M Plus WiFi I ran into a few problems: After I checked the BIOS and made the first changes (No Fastboot, Disable Secure Boot, adjusting the Fans etc.) I started the server the first time. I don't know why but after a deinstallation and new installation of the dynamix plugins I was able to see all temperatures and Auto Fan Control showed me all fans. Then I started to make "fine tuning" in the BIOS and changed some options (like activating bifurcation, so that I don't forget this if I would use a 3-port NVME riser card and things like that and changed a few settings regarding the fans, but only how fast they run at a specific temperature. The next start of Unraid all temperatures are missing, the available driver is coretemp (damn, I know that there was another driver before I made the reboot, but I can't remember the name), I can't reach all the fans and the CPU states in powertop also look weird... Everybody who has this kind of Motherboard: help is very appreciated, I am sure all the fans where there and maybe someone can tell me a few BIOS settings I should check (also regarding the power saving). And whooooweeeee there are a lot of options in this f****ng nice and cool motherboard. Sven

@Maximo101 Thanks a lot!!! As you are using a GPU I think I will get the server lower than 50 Watts in Idle. I can't find the plugin as a download-able version but I've read that it needs a reboot after installation, so this will be my last step before I shut the server down and change the parts. Everything is ordered and hopefully I can make the changes this weekend. Sven

Hi! I'm also planning to make a new/updated build with ASUS PRIME Z890M-PLUS WIFI and 285k. Great to hear that the IGPU now works with 7.1. @Soitora @eventorism @Maximo101 : are there still problems with the nic out of the box? I would update to 7.1.0 before changing to the new board. Any hints how to prepare everything so that the NIC will work when starting the Unraid Server the first time? I don't know if there is any option to install a plugin on my old setup and don't activate it until the new board is starting and don't want to crash my existing server before I'm ready to swap the parts. Did you have any other problems with this board or do you have any hints regarding problems that could occur while migrating? Is anyone using this or an similar board without any additional PCI-Cards and could tell his power consumption in Idle? In my actual setup I have three SSDs, three HDDs and no additional components and my idle consumption is arround 30W (I5-11500) and anything more than 50W idle would make me think about it again... Sven

Am I the only one here who is interested in the revenue only generated by the announcing of the new paying model? @limetech: I am not asking for the totals but it would be interesting to hear how many more or less licenses have been sold since the announcement and how many upgrades (Basic>Plus>Pro) have been sold compared to the time before the announcement? I guess the "wow, the upgrades in the future have to be paid for in blood"-panic-upgraders raised noticeable your income. Oh, while I am reading what I have written: I also have to upgrade asap , I can't see any blood. Sven

So, nochmal Sorry: meine poll_attributes war irrsinnig hoch eingestellt, obwohl ich da nie etwas geändert habe (außer dem erwähnten Update auf 6.12.3). Vor dem Update hatte mir Unraid immer brav aktualisierte Werte angezeigt und jetzt blieb die Anzeige per Zufall immer auf Werten hängen, die zu dem Zeitpunkt recht hoch waren. Wenn jemand also den gleichen Effekt hat, mal den Wert bei den poll_attributes checken. Gruß, Sven

Sorry, Kommando zurück... Habe jetzt mal die Smart-Daten der SSDs ausgelesen und dort werden mir die konstanten Werte von um die 40 Grad angezeigt, die ich eigentlich gewohnt bin. Jetzt muss ich nur herausfinden, warum mir Unraid im Dashboard andere Werte anzeigt? Und die unauffällige neue SSD zeigt mir im Smart einen Wert von 33 Grad, im Dashboard aber 44 Grad an. Wenn jemand eine schnelle Antwort darauf weiß, cool, ansonsten werde ich da doch mal genauer forschen was das soll... Gruß Sven

Hi liebe Unraid-ianer! Bisher waren in meinem System auf dem Board (Asrock B560M Steel Legend) zwei Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB (direkt auf dem Mainboard) angeschlossen und liefen als 1TB Pool zuverlässig und problemlos und sind selten über 40-50 Grad gekommen. Auf der Boardseite im Gehäuse ist und war eigentlich nur der Prozessorkühler aktiv. Mit dem Update auf 6.12.3 habe ich meinem Server über eine PCI-Karte einen weiteren NVME-Slot ergänzt in dem jetzt eine Samsung 980 Pro 1TB das System ergänzt. Das ganze läuft jetzt als zfs-Pool mit einer Kapazität von knappen 2 TB. Die neue NVME ist wie gehabt (aktuell) bei 44 Grad und damit voll im Rahmen. Nur die beiden "alten" NVME sind jetzt beide bei regelmäßig bzw. konstant (aktuell) 63 und 65 Grad (eine hat einen besseren Kühler als die andere, aber alles nur Standard-Kost und nix besonderes), obwohl beide früher auch konstant bei dem Wert der neuen von aktuell 44 Grad liegen. Ja, die PCI-Karte hat einen sehr großen Kühlkörper, daher weiß ich nicht, wo diese ohne die bessere Kühlung liegen würde. Ich möchte ungerne den Kühler abbauen um einen Vergleich zu haben. Daher mal die Frage an die Runde: Habt Ihr nach einer Umstellung auf 6.12.3 und / oder zfs eine deutliche Temperaturerhöhung bei den NVME SSDs feststellen können? Falls das relevant sein sollte: Auf dem Pool läuft eine Mini-VM als Linux konstant, eine gelegentlich genutzte Linux-VM bei Bedarf und Emby und Tdarr als Docker 24/7. Daran hat sich aber nach dem Ändern des Pools auf zfs nichts geändert, dass war vorher so und ist jetzt so. Auch bei der Speichernutzung, der Prozessorlast und der Temperatur von Board und Prozessor hat sich nichts wesentliches zu vorher geändert. Ja, ich weiß, dass die SSDs bis 70 Grad als Spec von Samsung freigegeben sind und wirklich Sorgen macht mir das nicht, aber wenn jemand einen Workaround hat, wie ich diese wieder konstant auf Mitte 40 Grad bekomme bzw. eine Idee, woran das liegen könnte oder was ich mal nachsehen kann, wäre das cool(er) Gruß Sven

Hey, no problem, it's great that you are trying to help me. Take as much time as you need. There are more than 1000 things that are more important than this problem.

Yes, a Docker container, sorry for the mistake, and yes I do know the main difference I am new to the Unraid and Docker stuff, you are right, all necessary protocols etc. are inside the container, isn't it? I tried to mount the webdav with https://... , I made first test inside a Linux VM and was able to mount the webdav with davfs and the correct https://... adress Full Log is added as a rtf (I have deleted all the account details, I think you understand that I don't want to share my login details Screenshot of container is added (and also the account details are deleted...) Yes, normally I only add things, where I know what is happening (powertop etc.) Yes, I have seen the rclone things, but I just have to read many more information, my hope was that I can just sync some critical data to my webdav account and yes, I do like any options with a GUI.

Hi! I tried to test the DirSyncPro Plugin, but I am not able to start the docker with my WEBDAV-Account. Here the first lines of the Log-File: /sbin/mount.davfs: loading kernel module fuse /sbin/mount.davfs: loading kernel module fuse failed /sbin/mount.davfs: waiting for /dev/fuse to be created /sbin/mount.davfs: can't open fuse device I don't know if the davfs is not available or other parts are missing. I already deleted the docker container and made a fresh install but this did not help. Does anybody know how I am able to start DirSyncPro with support for WEBDAV or how I install davfs on Unraid. I searched in NerdTools, but there is also no option to add davfs. Any help is appreciated. Sven Unraid 6.11.5 and DirSyncPro from the apps-section
