    The sg0 is typically the USB drive containing Unraid OS. 

     

    Let the OS auto detect the SMART controller type unless you must specify it to work, but I think that's more common for special RAID cards and HD enclosures etc.

     

    You are correct.

    I have a PCIe to Nvme card for some of my drives. Because of that I had set default in Unraid to Nvme and for whatever reason the SSDs had turned into ATA. Turns out I could just force the 3 SSDs to Automatic and everything is as it should.

    Thank you!

     

    Solved!

  2. I just installed this plugin for the first time.

     

    It finds my 5 Nvme drives. But my 3 SATA SSDs are missing in action. And it seems to add a 6th "ghost" Nvme.

    When I run "Force Update All" I get the following:

    So a few things:

    1: sg0 doesn't exist in reality. There is no such thing. Yet it shows as ACTIVE? And to top it off, it shows as an Nvme?

    2: sg0, sg1, sg2, sg3 all have the same ID? What is that ID btw? (1b7852b855)?

    3: sg1, sg2, sg3 show up as UNKNOWN?

    4: sg1, sg2, sg3 are the ones that does exist in reality. They're all SATA SSDs connected directly to my motherboard SATA ports. No extra controller or anything.

    They're all Samsung_SSD_870_EVOs.

    2 of them are 2TB and connected in Unraid with "Unassigned Devices plugin"

    1 is a 500GB and is connected in Unraid as a normal cache pool.

     

     

    Anything I can do to troubleshoot?

    Bare with me. I'm a complete noob.

    I feel like I'm missing something here but how did you identify the correct sensor for your mainboard temperature?

     

    That is an entirely different matter.

    I was happy I could finally see any kind of temperatures.

     

    I just looked in my plugin and I have 31 different temperature sensors. I'm pretty sure about the CPU, and then quite a few are from my drives. But for the MoBo? No real clue.

     

    I remember playing around with selecting different ones and just watching that sensor behavior for a week at the time. I finally settled on one of them as the "most likely". I know it's not the answer neither of us want. But I've resigned my self to it.

  4. I've used the ideas here and I have definitely reduced my disk writes on v.6.11.5 by at least 60%.

    I'm still trying to catch more of them and minimize/move to RAM. But I'm wondering how many writes people see during idle?

     

    I've tracked mine during the last 4 days and I'm seeing between 300k-600k writes per 24h on 6-7 dockers + HomeAssistant VM. I honestly don't know if that's a lot or not? Should I be satisfied or do I need to go deeper?

  5. That sounds interesting. Looking forward to hear the results.

     

    One question, I noticed my idle on Unraid went from 1-2% to 6-10% when I run this docker. Even if the chromecast devices are "sleeping". It seems a bit excessive to have that kind of load on the server when there is nothing useful happening. Is there perhaps a way of polling the devices to see if something is casting? And if not... well... don't do anything.

     

    Trying to be efficient, save electricity and all that.

  6. How do you get it to skip the ads?

    The sponsor and self promotion part works as it should for me.

     

    But the ads keep showing up. This is what it shows in the log:

     

    Skipping skippable ad

    error: unable to skip current ad: No ad detected, there is nothing to skip
    Skipping skippable ad
    error: unable to skip current ad: No ad detected, there is nothing to skip
    Skipping skippable ad
    error: unable to skip current ad: No ad detected, there is nothing to skip
    Skipping skippable ad
    error: unable to skip current ad: No ad detected, there is nothing to skip

     

     

    I have the Chromecast with Google TV device.

    Edit: Tried with a Chromecast Gen2 also, same result.

  7. Can anyone explain a little further for a complete linux/unraid noob.

     

    Trying to follow instructions in the above link:

    -------------------

    git clone https://github.com/a1wong/it87.git cd it87

     

    sudo make clean

    sudo make

    sudo make make install

    sudo modprobe it87 ignore_resource_conflict=1 force_id=0x8622

     

    sensors

     

    The fans should show up now, if yes, continue to make them available at boot:

     

    sudo su

    echo options it87 ignore_resource_conflict=1 force_id=0x8622 > /etc/modprobe.d/it87.conf

    echo it87 >> /etc/modules

    ----------------------------

    I can do the "git clone" part and it downloads something.

    But "sudo", "sudo make", "sudo make clean", "sudo modprobe" all says no such command. I figure the commands aren't in Unraid, but what am I supposed to use instead? And I have no clue what any of them really do.

     

    I have that motherboard and I want to finally have some kind of temperature readings on my Unraid system. I'm running blind now for ~6 months, I have no clue what temps I'm dealing with.

    I was hoping any of the updates to Dynamix System Temperature would help, but nothing has ever changed for me.

     

     

    EDIT:

    There is another solution.

     

    On Unraid Goto APPS

    Search for: ite it87 driver

    Install it

     

    Create a file on your computer (anywhere) change the filename to "drivers.conf"

    Open the file in a text editor

    Write:

     

    it87
    k10temp

     

    Save and close

     

    On Unraid Goto MAIN

    Click View is now called: Browse /boot (far right) on your Flash Boot device (your thumbdrive)

    Click config

    Click plugins
    Click dynamix.system.temp
    Upload the drivers.conf file from where you created it on your computer.

    GoTo PLUGINS

    Click Icon of Dynamix System Temperature

     

    You can now see the drivers in Available drivers, and you will find the sensors section is now populated with all the available sensors.

     

    EDIT 2:

    Corrected for slight word change that has happened in Unraid UI since I wrote my soluton.
