    Unable to get Unraid to boot when LSI 9211-8i is installed

    in Storage Devices and Controllers

    Posted

    If you see the lsi config menu, it possible that you are still in legacy mode or have CSM activated in your uefi.
    You should try disactivate CSM or go full uefi.
    I had a similar problem with an HP p410 on a dell motherboard. Impossible to boot until I get ride of any legacy related option in the uefi.
    The downside is that you can't acces the card config utility but if it's in it mode, you don't really need it.

    Tachidesk-Docker Support Thread

    in Docker Containers

    Posted

    form my own experience, I worked on tachidesk-server docker.

    To solve the right problem, I edited the second ligne of the dockerfile

    from 

    RUN groupadd --gid 1000 suwayomi && useradd --uid 1000 --gid suwayomi --no-log-init suwayomi;

    to 

    RUN useradd --uid 99 --gid users --no-log-init suwayomi;

    the users group already in the image with the right gid.

     

    So far, I downloaded and read chapters without problems.

    Suggestions for a 6-10 port pci card for unraid?

    It look a lot like mine.

    I flashed the silverstone firmware you can found here : https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/expansion-cards/ECS06/
    I had to use two différents computer to make it work but it solved my problem with the card (lost drives and slow speed) and reduced my consumption from 31w to 23-24w.

    Keep in mind that's not an officially supported card, it worked for me and others but I can't guarantee you it will work for you.

    When you launch the update utility, it will scan for compatibles peripherals and display the firmware version of the card it found.

    I had to use two different computer to do the firmware upgrade, on the first one, the app would freeze after clicking the upgrade button every time I tried. On the second one, it took a couple of seconds to finish it.

    Again, I took the risk to upgrade it because I couldn't send it back. The app look generic but you never know if it's not customised a little by silverstone as the spi field talk about unknown spi for the card.
    In one line, it worked for me but nothing say it will work for without breaking everything.

    ControlR (Android/iOS app for unRAID)

    in User Customizations

    Posted

    Hello, just brought Controlr and here are the first qwirks I came across.

    On the main page of my server, if I switch the rocker "I want to do this" in the Array part, the app crash directly.
    I can stop the array without switching the rocker and I expect it's not the right behaviour.

    I saw in Companion the UPS part and activated it but I can't see anything related to it in Controlr.

    I'm looking forward for futurs updates.

    Controlr version 5.2.1
    Companion version 4.0.0
    Android version 10Screenshot_20221231-135249.jpg

    What makes you think that would fix the problem?

    Because when I rolled back to my LSI, everything worked back after the rebuild on the same drive.

     

    With the impossibility to send the 1166 back, lost for lost, I flashed the Silverstone ECS06 firmware on it but from a third computer and everything worked. (firmware ugraded from rev 2011 to 2111)

     

    I launched a parity check to load the controller and it's running at an estimated speed of 120 Mb/s when it was between 30Mb/s and 360Kb/s before the firmware upgrade.

     

    It's definitly slower then the LSI but in idle, I'm now at 25 Watts instead of 32 Watts.

     

    EDIT : forgot to stop my dockers, I'm at >200Mb/s estimated speed in parity check.

    EDIT 2 : Parity check finished and no probleme so far, power use between 23.3 and 24.5w in idle.

    So, I ordered myself a generic 1166, great.
    But after swapping my old HBA for the new card and every drives where at the right place, things started to go wrong.
    One drive disconnected itself and each time I reintegrated it in the array, after a couple of minutes of rebuilding, it would go down again.
    So, if someone has an up-to-date firmware for it, I would gladly download it.
    I already tryed the silverstone one but ended with a not responding process.

    First Unraid Build with nothing new parts (mostly)

    in Lounge

    Posted · Edited by luzankia

    Hello, 
    As you can expect with my posts count, I'm new here. And from France, so expect some misspelling and other awkward sentence...
     
    Roughly 35 days in and for now, I regret nothing and learned a lot.
     
    Here is my build (and I will calculate the bills alongside).
    Case : Fractal design Node 604 (40€), a little beaten as the previous owner tryed to fit a µATX in.
    Processor : Intel i3-8100t (48.80€), used from ebay.
    Motherboard : ECS H310CH5-M2 (52.90€), the only big part that's new. (4 sata, 1Pci-e 16x, 1PCI-e 1x).
    Power Supply : a scavanged Silverstone modular PSU (20€)
    RAM : 16Gb 2*Kingston KHX2133C14D4/8G (from my parts bin)
    Storage : 6*Seagate ST2000DM006 bought new some years ago between 25 and 35€ each on leboncoin.
    Cache : 2*128Gb sata drives in pool (appdata) from the parts bin and 1 Intel 512Gb nvme from the bin (but 59€ in 2019) too but with a PCI-e 1x adapter (7.96€ from amazon)
    HBA : LSI SAS2008 in IT mode because 6+2 drives is more then the 4 sata of the motherboard... Also from the parts bin.
    scews : 2*20 scews for the HDD, you know, the one that go through the rubber dampener (5.29€ from aliexpress).
    Fan : 1*140mm Noctua NF-P14s as the original one had a broken blade that I didn't saw when I brough the case... (15.90€ from amazon), and a Be Quiet Pure Wings 2 (10.70€) for the front, coupled with a Be Quiet Shadow Wings 2 salvaged from an old project.
    USB : a Samsung Barplus (16.18€) recommanded by SpaceInvader One with a internal USB to USB2 adapter for 3.50€ because what does not stick out cannot be wrecked.
     
    So in total : 456.73€ for a 8Tb+512Gb+128Gb unraid server.
    It peak at 140w at lauch, 80w with all disk spinning and 31 to 29w in idle.
    I'm trying to optimize the consumption but I expect the LSI to stop me in going lower then C3.
    I will probably refactor the server with more optimized component next year (I already sourced a Corsair RM550X for 40€).
