Tybio

I can confirm, I get the same result as @rinseaid; Not ideal, but as this build is plugging a hole in the product lines until 7nm solutions come out for me, I can deal with it for a few years :). If this was intended to be a 10 year build, I'd have a different opinion.

I'll put it in, but stick to using the script for now

Hey, quick question. I just added the apcupsd exporter and I'm getting an error. Not sure if this is because I'm using a cyberpower UPS or what: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/src/apcupsd-influxdb-exporter.py", line 36, in <module> 'BATTV': float(ups['BATTV']), KeyError: 'BATTV' This is what I have in my apcaccess if that matters: root@Storage:/mnt/user/AppData/Config/scripts# apcaccess APC : 001,033,0821 DATE : 2019-02-01 15:40:38 -0800 HOSTNAME : Storage VERSION : 3.14.14 (31 May 2016) slackware UPSNAME : Storage CABLE : USB Cable DRIVER : USB UPS Driver UPSMODE : Stand Alone STARTTIME: 2019-01-27 04:40:04 -0800 MODEL : OR1500PFCLCD STATUS : ONLINE LINEV : 120.0 Volts LOADPCT : 11.0 Percent BCHARGE : 100.0 Percent TIMELEFT : 68.0 Minutes MBATTCHG : 10 Percent MINTIMEL : 10 Minutes MAXTIME : 600 Seconds OUTPUTV : 120.0 Volts DWAKE : -1 Seconds LOTRANS : 100.0 Volts HITRANS : 132.0 Volts ALARMDEL : No alarm NUMXFERS : 1 XONBATT : 2019-01-30 05:02:27 -0800 TONBATT : 0 Seconds CUMONBATT: 8 Seconds XOFFBATT : 2019-01-30 05:02:35 -0800 SELFTEST : NO STATFLAG : 0x05000008 SERIALNO : GX1HS2000054 NOMINV : 120 Volts NOMPOWER : 1050 Watts END APC : 2019-02-01 15:40:46 -0800

Very interesting, Going to do some testing today, I have a small monitor I can connect for the moment as I don't have a display emulator plug handy...but I should be able to replicate the setup. Will report back.

Nope, the only thing you lose is remote console...all other functions of IPMI seem to work fine.

The 2018 report is out: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-drive-stats-for-2018/ Looks like 10TB is the sweet spot in terms of reliability and size (Not cost tho ;).

Yea, the P2000 would be in a windows VM and passedthrough so it has no impact at the unraid level. It looks like with an iGPU and BMC, you have either/or. With a PCI-E vid card and BMC you can have both but it is driver dependent, but I've not tested this and have no intention too. If I can't get iGPU and BMC then I only have two paths: 1> accept IPMI is mostly pointless for me 2> I have to move away from iGPU

Confirmed, Supermicro has stated this is the expected behavior...you can't have a remote console and iGPU. I think I'll likely be in the market for a P2000 at some point later this year, looking toward the next release of Ryzen or TR. If I'm going to have all these limitations, I might as well go for PCI-E lanes so I can work around them....sad to say.

I'll keep you updated on the IPMI...and I also agree on the VM solution, it has some down-sides, but honestly...it is looking like a VM with a P2000 would have been a much better solution for this moment in time...then I could have remote console, and gone with any CPU I might like down the road

So I've been working with Supermicro on the IPMI problem, and bad news. Right now it seems you have a choice...use the BMC's Video adapter and get remote console /OR/ use the iGPU. If you use the IPMI video adapter, you don't seem to have access to the iGPU once the OS is booted... This is a REAL issue for me, one I'm working with their support team to sort out...but at this point, it looks like remote console OR hardware transcoding...but not both. I hope there is a way around that or this board was freaking pointless :).

Ok, been running a few days and it is working flawlessly. Thanks again for the update!

Thanks to the IPMI plugin I now have solid fan control, the update makes this board 100% functional for a quit unraid server! The only outstanding issue left is with the KVM setup. I can't get any console redirection to work via HTML5 or Java applet. THink I'm going to open a case with supermicro.

You need to set the lower thresholds for the fans with the sensor editor. The bmc will keep kicking them up to full speed. Set them to 200 or 300 rpms I had them fixed for all the headers (100/100/100)...it looks like the bmc reset is what was needed. I forgot I could do that from the UI!

Odd, I did a full reset...meaning not just a reboot but powering down the system and unplugging it to force the BMC to reset and it seems to work now! Sorry for the false alarm....testing to make sure each side responds properly ATM.
