Hello, I am having the same concern, the plex docker app does not see the media folder when set /mnt/user/MEDIA/ When I load the docker and try to add a library, the dir is / which shows subfolders Here is the docker setup any ideas why plex is not seeing /mnt/user/MEDIA/ ?

Hello, You have altered your go file @ \\UNRAID\flash\config\go which I am assuming looks like this? #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & echo ; >/usr/local/sbin/mover mkdir /tmp/PlexRamScratch chmod -R 777 /tmp/PlexRamScratch mount -t tmpfs -o size=16g tmpfs /tmp/PlexRamScratch From there you add the path variable within the plex docker? /tmp/PlexRamScratch Then within the PLEX GUI set the same transcode DIR? Would this requirement still be needed in EXTRA PERAMETERS? EXTRA PARAMETERS: --runtime=nvidia --device=/dev/dri --mount type=tmpfs,destination=/transcode,tmpfs-size=17179869184 --no-healthcheck Use Nvidia GPU -runtime=nvidia Use CPU for Trancodes --device=/dev/dri Use 16GB RAM for Transcode --mount type=tmpfs,destination=/transcode,tmpfs-size=17179869184 --no-healthcheck Look forward to the feedback for clarity

Same issue here All my other docker containers have no issues resolving and IP using the docker container network what's the difference with plex? Any assistance is appreciated.

I am attempted this unsuccessfully :-(

I have a follow up to this Currently I cannot use my custom docker container networks for plex. When I attempt to tell the plex docker to use my custom docker network, it does not apply an IP to it. Any other docker container i apply this network to works. NIC1 = Gateway1 - unraid nic 10.200.x.x NIC2 = Gateway2 - plex nic 192.168.x.x At the preset time plex is setup using 'eth1' and talking to the outside world successfully However, my local lan 10.200.x.x cannot hit plex internal IP. This hinders local LAN traffic not being able to route to NIC2 ... so when viewing plex on the internal network , all traffic is going to the WAN NIC1 back to WAN NIC2 How can I access plex internally on another gateway and NIC so traffic doesn't leave the internal network? I also tried to put plex on the same network to test... to leave it on the same gateway as my other dockers with the same custom docker network, and it doesn't get an IP, so not sure why that is?

Hello, I am also attempting to configure this setup in the same instance. I have 2x gateways, with 2x NICs NIC 1 = production LAN on a 10. address NIC 2 = second gateway on a 192 address I would like the 10. address to talk to the docker on the 192. address so all traffic internally doesn't leave the LAN. Currently I can get to the 192. docker only over the WAN from the 10. network My switch does support VLANs I am not sure how to get this configuration operational so the docker on the 192. network can talk directly to the 10. network (2 different gateways) while keeping 192. talking to the outside world on that interface

Hello, Attempted that previously too. Deleted cookies, attempted incog. mode same concern occurs. Select > Edit > un-check eye ball > disable edit The disk disappears Upon changes menu sections, or refreshing the page, the disk reappears. Thanks.

Hello, Reaching out as I just came across this docker image looking for a method to monitors power wattage and electracy usage. I haven't stumbled across this yet within this docker app. However, I must say it's quite incredible application here! I will keep investigating as I just deployed this image, there is A TON of useful monitoring tools here! Props to the dev-team! Thank you!

Hello, Using the 'edit' button and hiding the disk function works. However if you leave the page or refresh the page, the drive/disk reappears again. Thought I'd let you know. Cheers.

10-4. I was looking at some previous backups of the flash drive and they were far larger, noticed some random files on the drive that have since disappeared (perhaps via version updates). I will clean up what I can manually to keep the device in check. Thank you again for your time!

Hello, Thank you for your prompt follow-up. I am going to assume looking at flash\config\shares (.cfg.) files that any of these files that no longer exist can be removed or moved to a subfolder... i.e. flash\config\shares\archive ? Also took note of flash\config\modprobe.d which is an empty directory, is there any use for this? Thanks.

Hello, Reaching out to ask if there is any tool/plugin, or recommended manual method to clean up the unraid flash drive of 'useless -or- old files'? Over the years data has been added to the flash drive; reviewing the flash drive itself, it would seem there are some files/folders that (to me) don't seem necessary. However, not 100% sure if some of these files are required? I may be overthinking this concern... and kindly requesting if there is a 'best practice' to slim down the data on the flash drive to clean it up. Thank you.

Hello, Grabbed the new version today. Looking forward to seeing further developments of this plugin, really appreciate your time and support. I will keep an eye on this thread and post if any concerns come up moving forward.

Hello, Apologies for the delay. sdb sdi Are SSD, so they will not spin down Visual here I am not quite sure why your plugin is seeing another SK_hynix -- maybe it grabbed the info when it was plugged into UD, and since unmounted it resides in the db as a logged device? I currently have some nvme in UD as well, staged to become pool devices... haven't got around to deploying them as of yet. I also recently disabled 'Dynamix Cache Directories' to possibly rule that out, been doing some reading on that plugin to see if it performs drive spin ups to cache, which it shouldn't... but it's new to me. As for the connection type, all disk are plugged into the LSI card previously stated: LSI SAS 9300-16I HBA *IT MODE* Learning on the fly with your assistance of things to try, to hopefully assist with overall feedback to tweak this plugin, and to attempt to test the concerns you would like feedback on. Appreciate your time on this and the assistance :-)

Hello, Circling back on this initial concern. I will be attempting to re-initialize the ZFS cache pool with the same steps performed earlier this week. Hoping that this issue doesn't reoccur. I will post diags if it does. Thanks.

yah for sure. Apologies I didn't grab them For the time being, I am going to allow the system to sit in the preset state Deployed: Pool1 = (2X) btrfs - 2.5 SSD Not Deployed: Pool2 = (2X) zfs - NVMe <Currently the (2X) NVMe disks are detected as UD devices since the restore, which make sense.> I was low on time yesterday & preferred to get things back into an operational state once I saw this concern occur. Moving forward I will attempt to recreate the operation; re-add the (2X) NVMe as a ZFS pool and toss a test docker container on them to see if the concern happens again. At the time of all the errors and all the shares disappearing, I was possibly thinking it was permissions? available PCIe lanes? even possibly the hardware itself (new expansion card w/ new disk)? When I have some more 'down time' to work and test... I will be sure to grab diags. and post them....if the concern occurs again, Appreciate the follow-up.

Hello, Appreciate the response and good to know. I have been watching the logs for time stamps of spin downs, force spin downs and then spin ups for SMART. I don't see an enabled/disable plugin at this moment in time so I may uninstall to investigate further. All disk are attached to an LSI HBA currently.

Hello, Been testing the plugin, works well. I am currently testing if this plugin is waking disks for SMART reporting, as I have seen disks spin up more often than usual. May uninstall it for a day or two to see if it resolves the spin ups. The most recent update shows disk names which is a nice added touch. Let me know your feedback on the spin-ups. Thanks.

Hello, Currently I have (1X) cache pool 1 which is used for all appdata/dockers I have added a new ZFS mirror cache pool. This is to be used for one specific docker, I was able to initialize the zfs cache pool 2 and attempt to install a test docker <qbitorrent> upon installing the docker the docker log for this container stated 'could not create /appdata/qbitorrent/.cache/' I attempted to restart the docker and the docker failed to initialize I then went to my shares on unraid and all the shares had disappeared. I shutdown the server and restored my USB from backup and rebooted to get back to the state before adding the ZFS cache pool. I am now back to the restored state before adding the ZFS cache pool.

I am curious to what may have went wrong? Can you not use another cache pool for other docker containers? Does each cache pool require to have it's on docker.img file on the pool? Any assistance would be great. Thanks

Hello, Reaching out to receive some possible feedback regarding (2X) NVMe disk for a ZFS cache pool; mirrored. I have been seeing a lot of mixed reviews on disk based around performance, use-case, warranty issues <samsung>, etc. I have been attempting to find a brand of NVMe disk that would be recommended for use with Unraid and thought the community would be the best place to go for real-world feedback. Been having a hard time deciding to pull the trigger. As it has been noted mostly that these disk run hot depending on what they are used for, depending on disk make & model; have seen posts pertaining to corrupted blocks, I/O errors, etc. I have been looking up the following NVMe disk so far: *keep in mind 500GB -to- 1TB would be more than sufficient* SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2 2280 1TB PCIe Gen 3.0 x4, NVMe 1.3 V-NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-V7S1T0B/AM Crucial P2 500GB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD Up to 2400MB/s - CT500P2SSD8 Crucial P3 Plus 500GB PCIe Gen4 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD, up to 5000MB/s - CT500P3PSSD8 Western Digital 500GB WD Red SN700 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive SSD for NAS Devices - Gen3 PCIe, M.2 2280, Up to 3,430 MB/s - WDS500G1R0C ADATA Legend 840 PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe 1.4 M.2 Internal Gaming SSD Up to 5,000 MB/s (1TB) > Any other NVMe disk recommendations that perhaps I have looked over are welcomed < > NVMe heatsinks seem to be highly recommended. > Does Gen3 vs. Gen4 make a large difference? Does anyone have some useful feedback for this specific use-case. Looking forward to receiving some feedback. Thank you kindly.

Hello, Much appreciated, and good idea. Thank you.
