Since the last update to Plex I have noticed that the CPU usage is maxed out all the time. It is brining UnRaid to a crawl. At first I thought it was due to it managing 4+ TBs of music. So I axed that dir out. But still after several hours CPU usage would ramp up. I axed remote accesses. Thinking something or someone was in there. Again after several hours it again ramps the CPU sky high. Now I have ran out of ideas on what is causing this.
The only way I knew something was wrong was after the latest update. Normally my box is dead silent. Till I noticed that the cooler fan was whining like it was pegged at 100%. Never did that before.
I kill Plex and the CPU drops and the fan goes silent.
I am a novice at UnRaid and Docker apps..... But I can fumble my way through being somewhat successful at finding errors mostly of my own doing. But this has me puzzled. This box only is used for media. Nothing else yet.

How to fix that warning?

So that was the missing piece. When you first log in. Got that now working. Have the ARC running now. Does the Roon Core populate my music automatically? Or do I need to do a command or something?
Figured that out..... It is now populating.

When you first run the Roon client, you are presented with a screen that says "Choose your Roon Core" where it will try and find a running Roon Core on the network, or you can "Set up a Roon Core on this PC"
If you've already selected the Set up a Roon Core on this PC, then you can get into the software and start listening to music: BUT that wasn't the right move. As you've set up your Roon Core on the network already, you need to backup the local installation process. Open your Roon Software, go to Settings, then logout. Close the software. Re-run the software and hopefully it'll find your Roon Core on the network.
After you hit Connect to core, you'll be presented with the username/password to get authenticated with Roon registration software. You've already started the free trial (I can see that from your screen shot up there).

ah oh yeah, I see that up there now. So the Roon docker isn't even running. It shows a red box on the icon under Dashboard. Red box = not running.
If the window closes immediately and nothing happens, I suggest nuking it and reinstalling. There are two steps to this. You gotta delete the docker, and image. Then you need to delete the folders associated with Roon in your appdata/ folder.
For me it's:
/mnt/user/appdata/roonserver
Huh, there used to be in in there called raat or something, but I don't see it anymore. I suppose it's only that one folder "roonserver/"
Delete that also. Reinstall and see if that gets better.
And I very much appreciate the help on this issue. So far this has been one of the more challenging items I have done since I started using UnRaid. Which is pretty recent.

I am a little closer. Now it is running. Roon for desktop still seems to not be able to find it.
Now with it running how do you add the account credentials to it?

@VIthe3rd can you give us more to go from?
how about a screen shot of the running Docker. And the Settings of the room Docker page.
Are you logged in with your room credentials? Do you see anything when you run the local software?also check Docker > Roon > Logs. See if there are any errors in there. Ha! I have errors. Here’s my Roon Log screen
So where to start? I included the screen shot of the set up.
I Do not know how to add my credentials to the docker app for my roon subscription. And didn't know I had too.
For some reason the log window instantly force closes whenever I attempt to open it. Same goes for the console window. Only on the Roon Docker app.
I only run one other docker app and that is Plex. If that makes a difference.
When you say "screen shot of the running docker". I am unsure what you mean by that statement.
I am going to figure out why the log window does the Force Close when I attempt to open it in the mean time.
It says "connection closed" as the window is opening then it self closes.
This is all I get when I stop the server.

So I am trying Roon for the 14 days. I installed the server and set it up just like in the first post. Installed the PC software and it seems it can not find the server. Everything is on the same network. There is no manual configuration in the Roon software. It just wants to find the server by a search.
What am I missing?

Oh. Shit. So, in the Docker container, "/media" *IS* "/Media/TV Shows" on the server...?
Thanks!

I did find that article and went through it. Doing some of the tips in it helped with the CPU usage. Now it hovers around 50% usage. Also PLEX had an update since I posted this. The usage is still more than I would like to see. I Shut down PLEX when I know I am not using it right now. Seems easier than searching for the issue.
Thanks for the reply though.
