When are dockers stopped? I assumed that it was before the backup started so that verifications would be successful. But, I have handbreak running and I seem to get an error every night related to the current encode. So it seems to be taking the backup, trying to verify (and failing, obviously, because the current file has changed) and then stopping the dockers and updating them. I feel like I've got something set wrong. Also, I have it set to only retain 5 backups but I currently have 27 backups - all but four of them are marked "failed".

Holy cow, you're right. I was using a utility app to do my moving. It appears it was doing a copy & then delete. I switched back to the default windows copy and it's better. Thanks.

Using Windows Explorer, is there a faster way to move files between unRaid shares? It seems like every file moves across my wifi, from the server, to my laptop, and then back across wifi to the server. I'm sure this is a windows question but I'm hoping somewhere here can suggest a way to keep the file movement at the server. Thanks in advance.

I'm having a problem figuring out how to handle file renaming. I'm still testing and am principally focused on getting ffmpeg to work the way I want it. I'm reencoding x264 files into hevc and also dropping the resolution on 4k files. So, I have a library set up when I put the source file and I want FileFlows to do the encode and then put the new file, with a new name into the same folder as the original file. I'm working with a "file pattern replacer" node but I don't know what I need to put as my final node. Again, I don't want to replace the original file (I might need to reencode it as I tweak the ffmpeg settings). I want original to be untouched so I end up with: show.s01e01 - episode name (webdl.2160p.hdr.scenename-h265.eac35.1) show.s01e01 - episode name (4k.webdl.hdr.scenename-hevc.20m.ffm.ddp5.1) When I look in the log file the replacements seem to be working. I just seem to either a) loose the new file altogether, or b) have the original file overwritten. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW, I'm loving this docker.

As I said, I'm just hoping for it to restart the queue. No need to resume anything in progress. Just encoding what is left in the queue.

Couldn't it just restart the encode that was interrupted? It seems to reset the encode that was in process and when I manually click "start" it resumes from the beginning of that file.

Is there any way to resume encodes if the docker is stopped? I'm using it to encode over night but I also run the CA backup pluggin and it stops all of my dockers.

Liking this docker but is there any way to increase font?

Likely this docker but is there any way to increase font?

When I run the plugin from the Tools screen I get a message that says "There are no disks that can be precleared.". But, I have a mounted disc in the unassigned Devices screen. When I look at the unassigned devices screen I don't see an icon for the preclear. I've tried the plugin with the drive mounted & unmounted. Not sure what I'm missing. *** Update: And I found my own answer. I had to delete the partition first.

But this level of degradation? 10Mb/s or lower can't be explained by SMR, can it? Oh, and I do have plans to move my 1 6TB CMR drive into the parity slot. But that has to wait until the rest of my rebuild is complete.

Yes.

I've just moved to 6.12.4 of unRaid and was looking at how cache vs array is now handled for shares. I clearly didn't understand and set one of my media shares to be primary-cache. Overnight the mover kicked in and filled my cache drive. I tried to fix this by changing the share to primary-array but the mover seems to be taking forever so I killed it and I'm using MC to move things back from the cache (I'm moving from /mnt/cache/media to /mnt/disk#/media. Here's the problem... I'm getting transfer speeds of about 10MB/s and it seems like I should be getting about 150MB/s. I know that my parity drive has to be written as I write back to the array but I didn't think it would have this kind of impact. I've got about 900Gb to move off of the cache and this could take forever. My array is WD Red drives so I know they aren't build for speed but again, I should be getting about 10x the speed I'm seeing. Any suggestions? rs-diagnostics-20231027-1152.zip

I opened a terminal session through the GUI, and started MC to move some files off of an Unassigned Disc. I came back a while later to check the progress and the terminal session window was closed. But, when I look at my discs there are lots of writes going on so it appears that the session is still running. Is there any way to resume that session?

I've found a little more info. If I go into the "main" tab of the dashboard I can click on the "disc log information" button beside each drive and I get a log for that disc that includes the ATA number as well as the SD & MD references. But I still can't find a one place solution that goes the other way. If I start with an ATA error I have to click on each drive until I happen upon the disc with that number. I have 9 drives and that seems laborious. I can't image what it's like with a big array. Still hoping someone drops in the the magic.

I've asked this a few different way but really haven't found a solution. My system is throwing off ATA errors but when I look through the log during boot up all I can find is a link between the ATA number and a drive model. The problem I have is that I have multiple drives of the same model. In fact I have three drives of the same model. There must be something somewhere to reference a serial number or something else. I've attached my diagnostics. rs-diagnostics-20231021-1332.zip

OK, I see that you mean the serial number of the disk. But that screen doesn't tell me the ATA number. And, now I have a new error message that references an MD number. Nor is there anything here that tells me which port the drive is attached to. So, in this example if Disk 1 is giving me trouble I'd like to be able to know where it is in my rack and which SATA port it is connected to.

OK, I'm back. Here is the "main" page of my unRaid gui. I don't see my serial number or a "disk log information" icon. I'm sure I'm looking right at it but can't see it.

I'll have another look at it tonight. But I think it looked like the drive on the card was being emulated when i fired up the server. And as you'll see from my OP "keeping old equipment going" could be my middle name. *** And tonight everything looks fine. I have another disc issue but that's something I can work through. Thanks!

And yet it doesn't. I think I have to enable "legacy" devices in the mobo bios but I can't find the option.

Wow, I'm an idiot. You said "MAIN" & thought "main"... like the dashboard. I'm having a disc issue so it's not running right now. I'll check when I reboot. Thanks.

I don't have a "disk log information" icon, nor does my serial number show on my main GUI. Strange.

I've had some errors on my drives over the years and have noticed that error message sometimes reference the mount letter, sometimes the ata number and sometimes the disk number. Then, if it's a physical problem I have to figure out which sata port the drive is on so I can find it on my rack. Is there somewhere I can inventory all of this info? I'd like to go from the physical drive serial number to the sata port, to the ata number to the unRaid mount letter to the disk number. Thanks.

I also have an Adaptec 1430A card. The bios on it is v6.0-0 B2322. Has anyone seen an update that address the Intel 600 chip set?
