Ive been getting this issue, radom drives that says incorrect key when starting the array. I can start in safe mode without any issues. Been removing plugins and it seems like I can start the array when I remove My servers version 2023.01.23.1223 . Im on Unraid 6.11.5.
There is no error in the log either, so my guess is that this is a timeout issue of some sort.
-
running the following
1 unraid filserver
1 unraid database server ( all databases) and logging
4 proxmox servers with k3s cluster

Been using this for a long time and really like it!
I have a server with backplane and I though it would be great if we could bind the port to a slot instead of a drive to a slot? When removing or moving a drive the drive in the slot would change automatically then
-
Well, Im in the process of removing 4 3gb drives that now have reached EOL with over 7 years of operation. I'm replacing them with 2 10gb drives instead and really would like this built in even if it would take a long time. Doing it manually is just such a pain

+1 , would be great to be able to have Unraid handle the removal of a drive, that is shrink the array. unBalance is a great tool but it does not handle the fact that unRaid can still write to the disk during the process. If Unraid handled the process it could be a one click solution where the system:
-Ensures writes are not done to the disk
-Moves all data to other disks
-New config
-notification when drive is removed from the array

What do you mean by "the cards do not like 4x slots"? Would the hard drives not show up? I'm guessing since those x4 slots come from the PCH that might have been causing issues. I'm just curious what you were seeing going wrong since I'm interested in getting this board.
From other threads I've concluded that the M1015 might not work at all in a 4x slot, this could be dependent on the firmware on the M1015 card. I have not tried it myself since I've opted for a 8x connection for the cards.

Just wondering why not use BIOS fan control ?
I want to control my fans from the HDD temp and not the system temp
-
The server is still running strong, no issues at all!

Nope, I keep all my drives spinning all the time

Upgrading my 2011 system I wanted to move to iGPU encode and decode for Plex. Also I wanted to get the latest chipset / cpu that’s for servers but not really a need for a Xeon cpu. Choice fell to the c246 chipset and that narrowed the boards down to Supermicro X11SCZ-F or the Asus WS C246 PRO. I really wanted a IPMI board since the board I’m replacing has IPMI. Reading about issues with IPMI and iGPU at the same time I dropped that requirement.
Speaking for the Asus board seemed to be the ability to use more lanes to the PCI slots by turning off 4 SATA ports and not having the SM fan controller. Since I have the x-case 420 PRO case it has an issue with the SM fan controller and the built-in fan controller in the case. Thus I choose the Asus board.
Specs:
Intel Core i7-8700K
Corsair Vengeance LPX Black 32GB (CMK32GX4M2A2666C16)
X-Case 420 PRO
2 IBM M1015 IT mode
3 SSD for cache
17 HDD
The board booted without a extra graphics card present both with the shipped bios and the latest bios version 0802. Both M1015 cards works too in slot 1 and 2, this seems important since the cards do not like 4x slots.
Unraid (6.6) does not find the fancontroller without adding modprobe -v nct6775 to the GO file. Adding that row and FAN1-7 can be controlled independently ( I think). Also iGPU enconding works like a charm.

Congrats to pulling off the impossible!

Sounds bad with the ipmi issue. When you run igpu and no ipmi do you have issues with fan control?
-
Thanks, really good points there

I really would like to get the SM board since it has IPMI, asus has it's own that I guess is not IPMI compatible. The SM board does have a challange for me, it only has 2 full length card slots and I want to fit in 2 LSI SATA cards and a GTX 1030, it seems not possible unless I place one of the cards in a 4x slot. Then I would also have no room for anything else
Question is if I go with the 8700K chip, is there a better board that has IPMI and also the correct chipset for iGPU support?
-
I myself is in the same situation, plex streams transcoded kills my unraid server. I today have a xeon 1240v2 that has about 10000 passmarks, thats for some files enough to transcode one 4k sdr to 1080p. For 4k HEVC there is no way it can cop and plex states that around 15000 and it seems like ATMOS and such just needs way more than that. My thinking is that CPU power will just not be enough to solve the issue, sure 16000 x2 would be able to transform one stream, but not 2 4k HEVC Atmos files at the same time. For me a build with hardware encode/decode is the only option, I do know that currently there are issues with tone mapping, but it seems to be software and not hardware related. Still pondering what cpu and mother board to get though....
-
Great info, thanks. I don’t need ECC, but I guess the E-2100 series support non ECC memory too? If so then a C246 would not be a compromise I guess. HW Transcode does have issues now with HDR, but I think the issues will be fixed by Plex later since the encoder and decoder supports HDR.
Is there a better MD for this task, and are there other chipsets that support igpu hw?
-
So a lot of my plex library is now 4k and the transcode is really killing my server. Its a xeon 1240v3 with 32gb ram. This platform does not support igpu hw decode/encode thus I now think its time to upgrade. I'm thinking of a Intel i7-8700K cpu with 32GB ram. Im a bit stuck on what motherboard I should get since I understand it so the chipset also has to support igpu. I was thinking of a c246 chipset board and I would like to have IPMI if possible. The IMPI board I can find really lacks on PCI slots and thats not soo good. I know Asus (no IPMI) has 2 C246 boards and it has many slots. Is there any other boards I should consider? I would also want to be able to run the fan plugin too.

This is really cool, is anyone running this 24/7 without issues ?

I think you should segment your network with VLAN and place iot on one and drop everything to/from that network thats coming from your main lan?

What about AMD then? As I've seen reports of users running an AMD gpu under Linux with hardware transcoding working.
I don't really think we are waiting on Plex. We need drivers. Even if plex officially supported Nvidia and AMD it won't matter if unraid doesn't have the drivers.
It's the same as unraid dvb. Plex supports tuners but plex can't see or do anything with those tuners without the drives being supplied by the unraid dvb plugin.
The issue is rather simple, if the right drivers are installed into unraid then the gpu can be passed to the plex docker. The support of that gpu then falls on Plex.
The problem is adding drivers for gpus into unraid is not an easy or simple task. I highly doubt Lime-tech wants to spend the time/money/effort into doing so. Even though I think it may attract more customers. Therefore it would fall on the community.
For an idea of how much work is involved, listen to CHBMB. He knows much work is involved with compiling drivers into each new build of unraid.
I really want this to happen. But from what I've read and been told is not something thats going to come easy.
I really dont know the complexity of getting this to work, but I would presume that having the drivers installable from the user via CA or such would be really hard. Just compiling AMD and nvidia drivers with unRaid should be the most simple way to do it. You will though loose the ability to choose driver version and not be able to install others like tuners but I think this would solve 90% of the use cases

Would really like this too since lastpass does not till this in on chrome either on macos or windows. A real login page would be awsome

After updating Dynamix Auto Fan Control to 2023.02.05a it seems like the Minnimum PWM value is actually now the max PWM value. I had this set to 45 prior and after the update my server will not spin the fans faster than 45% and then my server shutdown due to drives too hot, setting it to 100% seems to work, current fans speed is now 1666 rpm (66%) , thats a lot less than 100%.
