Power is not an issue, I have a 1200w psu with no splitters involved. I have tried switching power around to other disks, it is always disk 8 that does not show up. I have copied all the data from Disk 8 to outside of the array. What do I do next please?

Ok, I will get an external drive and try hooking it up to copy my files off. Yes, the files are emulated and I can browse the disk. Disk8 is attached via SATA cable, was originally direct to the motherboard and I have tried it now on both my SATA controllers as well, no change.

FYI, I started looking around my server after starting the array, and my WIndows 10 VM is broken, when I try to start it I get the following error: Execution error unsupported configuration: Domain requires KVM, but it is not available. Check that virtualization is enabled in the host BIOS, and host configuration is setup to load the kvm modules. I used this right before upgrading the flash drive to a larger size so I could upgrade unraid, not sure what is causing this issue now too?

Yes I have 1 parity drive and 1 missing drive, I started the array and attached new diagnostics. As for ReiserFS, I believe that is the file system when I first got unraid years and years ago, have no idea it needed to be upgraded. I have the fixcommonproblems app but it has not identified it as an issue? tower-diagnostics-Array-Started.zip

Diagnostics are attached! tower-diagnostics-20220906-1643.zip

I just did an upgrade from 6.10.1 to 6.10.3 hoping that would fix it. Now instead of showing Disk 8 as missing, it shows Disk 8 as uninstalled. What has happened to the data/parity for Disk 8, what to do?

Continued testing all afternoon, I reset my BIOS in case something was wonky, I swapped the power and SATA from my cache drive to the original drive and to a new drive, I cannot get Unraid to pick up any disks, disk 8 status remains missing and I cannot figure out how to recover from this? It isn't just the missing disk, but I cannot get unraid to recognize any new disks to the system, I have tried with 2 new out-of-the-box disks. Something went wrong with the Flash drive replacement? I cannot fall back to my old flash drive because as soon as I assigned the key to the new Flash, the old one is banned from ever being my servers flash. I also get this error now along the top of the GUI: Warning: parse_ini_file(/usr/local/emhttp/state/flashbackup.ini): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in/usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.my.servers/include/myservers2.phpon line552 What to do?

Updated testing: 1. Plugged in a different new, larger drive - no change, does not show up to select in place of the missing disk 2. Unplugged another drive in case there was some strange max-number of drives hit, no change just results in 2 missing disks 3. Tried switching sata cables with another cable on a different controller, no change, still missing same disk

I upgraded the size of my flash drive using the backup procedure, and this worked. However when I booted up, one drive was missing. 1. I powered down, replaced the SATA cable, reseated the power cable, still missing drive 2. Swap the power cable and SATA with another drive, still missing the same drive 3. Replace the drive with a larger one, the larger drive does not show up I am not sure where to go from here, I have tested power, SATA, and the drive itself?

Thank you very much, will replace with a large usb stick now.

When I try to perform the latest update, I get the following message: boot device shows 291115008 free but upgrade needs 310215571 plugin: run failed: /bin/bash retval: 1 Probably means my 1gig usb stick is not large enough any more? I will buy a larger usb stick, what is the process to move to a new usb please?

Running the PlexServer docker from plexinc/pms-docker I have not made any changes, but I went to my nvidia shield to watch a movie and found all my libraries do not load anything into them, they just give me the error: Something went wrong An unexpected error occurred. And I cannot see anything, cannot search, etc. I have optimized the database, and tried refreshing metadata - though the metadata seems to hang on refresh. I have tested with Shield, Android, and Windows 11 with multiple browsers, all the same issue, it is something server side. I have restarted Plex container multiple times, and did a server reboot, not help. I have posted in the Plex support forum as many people have with the same problem over the last week and a bit, but I don't see any resolutions?

Been running an i7-3820 w/40gig RAM for years, and today my server started shutting down, believe to to heat. Probably fixable, but I would like to take this opportunity to replace this aging hardware. I run quite a few dockers, a couple of VMs (usually only one at a time due to 4 core CPU, would like to increase this), and have 1-2 plex streams including 1 transcoding. Looking for recommendations on CPU/Mobo combo that is appropriate for Unraid: 8 core/16 threads, lots of PCIe slots (I have 2 sata cards running 8 drives each, plus a GPU), and 6 or more SATA ports for the rest of my drives. Would like to go to 64gig RAM, so 4 x 16gig memory. No specific budget, looking for good value and reliable hardware. Thank you in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply! Here are my issues: I do not see anything in Friends from a device on my network, I should be seeing LAN game but I don't? I have setup port forwarding, but external users cannot connect to my server, "Unable to connect" error I have tried an internal network user connecting to my server IP and the external IP address and port, they get "unable to connect" as well What can I check or modify to get this server running? I also get the following two messages when I login to the webui: NO LOG FILE! - Failed to up file descriptor limit Operation not permitted NO LOG FILE! - setting up server logging... And after the server has been running 15+ minutes, when I try to access the webui for consol, I get: "There is no screen to be attached matching minecraft." and in big letters "Connection Closed" If I reset the Docker, I can login to the webui again, then it fails after a while again. Thanks again for the help

My son asked me about setting up a Minecraft server for him and his friends, and after some research I found this thread. I installed the Bedrock version of the Docker and am able to connect to it through the Docker UI. Is the console the only way to interact with the server, or is there a UI available? Is there a list of common commands to set/update? How do users inside my house connect to this server? How do I open access to this for users outside my house? Thank you in advance!

That would be perfect!

Is DSD file support available yet? I would like to use this to play DSF files to my cambridge audio 752bd.

Is it possible to shrink the same way? I tried to shrink it but its still more than the allocated, but its not taking the lower size for me.

Looks like my AMD A8-3870k processor on Asus F1A75-V Pro motherboard doesn't support IOMMU unfortunately.

Ok that is why I don't see GPU in the graphics card drop-down, because I am trying to use onboard graphics. Ok I will install a discrete graphics card and test, thank you!

Go edit your vm. Don't you see a drop down for graphics? Pick you GPU. End of guide . ;-) When I go to graphics card in the unraid VM manager, all I have is VNC. I am running an AMD A8-3570K processor and no discrete graphics card. For CPU mode, I have "Host passthrough (AMD A8-3870 APU with Radeon HD Graphics". But when I play a youtube video through remote desktop, it is chunky. My network is gigabit and has no issue with high def streaming. My windows8 VM has 4 cores and 8gig of RAM.

Correct, I had it set to Public originally and had the change it. Now, if anyone knows of a good guide to GPU passthrough with KVM, that would be awesome!

Ok, I think you may be using the virbr0 bridge which is not yet enabled to accept incoming connections from an external source. To fix this, goto the network settings page of the unRAID webgui and enable a bridge and give it a name. Then, with your VM turned off, go to the VMs page of the web GUI and edit your VM. Turn on advanced view and change the network bridge from virbr0 to the bridge you created. This will give your VM an ip from your router. From there, your rdp should work. You were right, and a friend just walked me through the same setup. I had to bridge my Unraid server network adapter to br0, then under advanced settings in the VM template, give it br0. The VM then picked up the ip address from my DHCP router, and I can now RDP to that ip address perfectly. Thank you!

What IP address do you use?

I have enabled RDP on the windows8 VM, but when I try to RDP from my physical Windows7 machine, it doesn't get past "Configuring Remote Session". No error or anything, it just sits at that status forever. I am doing RDP to VM_IPaddress:port
