My docker service failed to start sometime in 6.7.0-rc3 and still in 6.7.0-rc4 I've attached logs so hopefully it's helpful. mediaserver-diagnostics-20190216-1611.zip

Happened to look through some system logs after rebooting and noticed errors on the cache drive. Thinking it's time to swap out the cable and device right?

Hi All, Every couple weeks I get into a scenario where my VM fails to boot and I need to wipe it and set it up again. I've attached logs and I looks like I have some issues with my cache drive but I'm not 100% sure. Can anyone take a look and let me know if I need to replace 1 or both of my cache drives? mediaserver-diagnostics-20170406-1525.zip

@johnnie.black here's the output: root@MediaServer:~# btrfs device stats /mnt/cache [/dev/sdb1].write_io_errs 0 [/dev/sdb1].read_io_errs 0 [/dev/sdb1].flush_io_errs 0 [/dev/sdb1].corruption_errs 0 [/dev/sdb1].generation_errs 0 [/dev/sdh1].write_io_errs 56691403 [/dev/sdh1].read_io_errs 45384262 [/dev/sdh1].flush_io_errs 968089 [/dev/sdh1].corruption_errs 0 [/dev/sdh1].generation_errs 0 root@MediaServer:~#

Hi All, After upgrading to 6.3.3 I haven't been able to run any Docker apps, docker tab says 'Stopped'. I'm also have issues getting my VM to launch into Windows (it gets stuck in a repair/fail loop) Looking through my syslog it appears I have several errors related to one of my cache drives but would like someone to confirm. Thanks. mediaserver-diagnostics-20170405-1434.zip

I'm hitting this too, did you ever get it figured out?

I thought that at first but my bookmark is saved for port 8090. Here's the error I'm now getting when trying to restart the web server: root@Tower:~# killall emhttp emhttp: no process found root@Tower:~# /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & [1] 15533 So it looks like something is killing the web process?

Hi All, Within the last few weeks I've gotten into a state several times where I can't load the web gui and trying to run 'killall emhttp' results in an error 'no process found' I can power down the server via telnet and reboot but I still need to restart the web server to load the webgui, I'm using the following: killall emhttp /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & I've attached some logs, if anyone has suggestions on how to fix this I'm all ears. TIA tower-diagnostics-20160105-0614.zip syslog.txt

Thanks bubbaQ, I thought about getting a 4x1Gbs NIC as well and may do that instead. would probably be cheaper in the end.

Hi All, Long time lurker, non frequent poster. I have an unraid setup that I'm pretty happy with in regards to read/write performance from a single client. My question is this though, would putting in a 10Gb/s NIC help with read/write performance from multiple clients? I am moving into a new house and have the opportunity to run cat5e/6 around the house and am thinking of getting a new switch with a 10Gb/s port that I would connect my unraid box to. I could see a couple computers backing up files to the unraid box and streaming movies to a couple clients all at the same time. thoughts?

Thanks for the suggestion dgaschk, I was 5 versions behind on my Gigabyte MB. My SASLP-MV8 is current with v 3.1.0.21 but I see v4.0.0.21 is available for the newer SAS2LP-MV8 cards, would that work in my older card? I'm guessing not.

Hi All, For the past month or so I've had an issue where after running my server for 5-7 days it will stop being able to connect to over telnet and any user shares I had mounted will be unmounted. I can't ping it and trying to load the webpage to control the server results in an error that the page can't be loaded. I've run Memtest for 48hrs with no issues and I've reinstalled v5.0.5 on a new USB flash drive to rule that out. I don't run with any add-ons or plugins. Attached log and here is a screenshot from the server https://www.dropbox.com/s/zko4e6x217w2w1k/IMG_0086.JPG?dl=0 Thanks for any help! syslog.txt

Hi All, I'm having an issue where my parity check is only going at 2.68MB/s and I do have it set to correct errors. I've attached a syslog below. Normally I see it going for 20-30MB/s. My parity drive is a 2TB WD Green drive and I'm running a Core i5 Haswell with 8GB of ram running v5.0.5 Thanks for the help in advance. syslog.txt

Sorry I wasn't more clear. I did some more troubleshooting and here's what I've discovered: I disconnected all my drives I was able to boot to the tower login prompt, before I would get an error message that 'no boot device was discovered and to connect a device and press any key', a BIOS error message. I shut down the server and then reconnected my drives and now get the tower login prompt (woot!). I have 8 drives connected via internal SATA connections to the motherboard and a SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8 card. The mother board is a Gigabyte Z87-D3HP. I am able to see the server via the web interface. I'm going to run a parity check to make sure everything is ok.

Hi All, Randomly today my flash drive is refusing to boot. I have a few plugins installed along with the dynamix 2.2.1 webgui. If I wipe the drive and reinstall Unraid 5.0.5 it boots up just fine but if I put my config folder back on the drive it refuses to boot. Here is the log file: http://www.dropbox.com/s/exhm93f8wulfns2/syslog-20140306-035428.txt

bummer, i got 3 Supermicro 5x3 drive boxes I have to check now. Thanks for the info dgaschk!

You better decide to take pictures

I bought it off NewEgg and wasn't paying attention, stupid tax I guess. The Jetway board doesn't support ECC.

I finally completed my 20 drive beast. I had 1 5-3 cage already and finally added the other three along with a motherboard and CPU upgrade. Word of caution for those looking at getting the Antec 1200 case, the metal tabs are a PAIN to get flush. It took me about 3-4 hours total. Now on to the good stuff. OS at time of building: 4.7 Pro CPU: AMD Athlon X2 265 Regor 3.3GHZ Motherboard: JetWay JHZ03-GT-V2-LF RAM: Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 ECC Unbuffered Server Memory Case: Antec TwelveHundred V1 (had from a previous build) Drive Cage(s): 4 x SUPERMICRO CSE-M35T-1B Power Supply: SeaSonic X Series X650 Gold ((SS-650KM Active PFC F3)) 650W SATA Expansion Card(s): 2 x SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8 Cables: 4 x 3ware CBL-SFF8087OCF-05M Fans: 4x Noctua NF-B9-1600 92mm Case Fan (these were used to swap out the fans on the drive cages.

Cache Drive: N/A Total Drive Capacity: 6.5TB Primary Use: Media Server to Plex and Boxee, Backup via Crashplan Likes: TONS O STORAGE, sense of accomplishment building something Dislikes: I think it weighs more than a semi truck, and thats only with 5 drives Add Ons Used: UnMenu Future Plans: Air Video Server, Cache Drive, All 2TB drives This shot shows how the screws lined up and how the medal tabs look bent and cut off. Thanks to Raj for the prototype thread and everyone else posting your setups and asking the questions I would have asked as well

@yelnatsch517 Thanks for the heads up

Just looking for feedback on my 2nd rig. My main purpose is for media streaming using Air Video server and backup. I don't mind spending extra $$$ to get the right gear, but I don't want to take out a 2nd mortgage either ;-) My main goal is to eventually have 20 drives for around 40TB of storage. I currently have the Antec case for another rig so I won't have to buy that. Everything else will be new. Mobo: BIOSTAR H55A+ LGA 1156 Intel H55 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138281 CPU: Intel Core i3-540 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115221 RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231303 PSU: CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-750HX http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139010 Case: Antec Twelve Hundred http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129100 SATA Expansion Card: 2 x SUPERMICRO AOC-SASLP-MV8 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816101358 Hot Swap Drive Bays: Norco SS-500 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816133030 Breakout Cables: 3ware CBL-SFF8087OCR-06M http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816116101 Hard Drives: Green drives (5400 rpm or 5900 rpm) I'll probably replace the Norco cage fans with Noctua 92mm fans http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608005 Thanks for the help!

Raj, I noticed in your earlier builds you were using the SuperMicro cages, now you are quoting Nocro cages. What makes the Nocro cages better? Thanks.
