Currently on 6.12.15. 10Gb SFP+ PCI card interface is the active and preferred interface. Onboard 1Gb NIC is port down. After each .x point upgrade in 6.12.x, the onboard 1Gb NIC is reenabled during the point upgrade. Is this by design or a bug?

Hi All, Trying to reset the webui password, but following the instructions here doesn't work. I've tried deleting the sha1 line and also deleting the web.conf file after stopping the container. Is there something specific to unraid? Do I also need to delete the web.conf.bak?

From this post, only root has WebUI access. Is that correct?

It's working now, since I added NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES.

Yes. I followed the tutorial. Ah OK. Once Advanced View was enabled, I saw that I had already added "--runtime=nvidia" during initial setup. Today I noticed HW transcode wasn't working, but had been working 1-2 months ago, so I: 1. Uninstalled, reinstalled the Nvidia plugin, and installed the latest Nvidia driver. No change, same Plex error in log 2. Followed the tutorial, and added NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES parameter. HW transcode works. Not sure how HW transcode was working on initial setup w/o NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES set..

Works now. I was missing "NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES" parameter. However, when I set this up 2 months ago, I didn't have that parameter. I was following a YT from AlienTech, but this guide is much better. And I still can't find where to add '--runtime=nvidia' to the 'Extra Parameters'" to complete all the documented steps from the guide. docker run -d --name='Plex-Media-Server' --net='host' --pids-limit 2048 -e TZ="America/Los_Angeles" -e HOST_OS="Unraid" -e HOST_HOSTNAME="supermicro" -e HOST_CONTAINERNAME="Plex-Media-Server" -e 'PLEX_CLAIM'='Insert Token from https://plex.tv/claim' -e 'PLEX_UID'='99' -e 'PLEX_GID'='100' -e 'VERSION'='latest' -e 'NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'='GPU-XXX' -e 'NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES'='all' -l net.unraid.docker.managed=dockerman -l net.unraid.docker.webui='http://[IP]:[PORT:32400]/web' -l net.unraid.docker.icon='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plexinc/pms-docker/master/img/plex-server.png' -v '/mnt/user/data/media':'/data/media':'rw' -v '/dev/shm':'/transcode':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/Plex-Media-Server':'/config':'rw' --runtime=nvidia 'plexinc/pms-docker' The command finished successfully!

Hi All, I've read this blog post by Spaceinvader One, and watched his YT vids on ZFS and Hybrid, but I'm still not sure which way to go. Server details are in signature. Primary use case is Plex server with HW transcode, *arr apps and maybe other docker apps, and SMB as I migrate away from a Synology unit. Given the array will have 12 * 10TB identical SAS drives, that would suggest ZFS. The server could handle another 12 * 3.5" in the future. Given the age of the server, I don't think it can spin down drives not in use. I've been running TrueNas Scale (K8s is too complicated), and reboot into Unraid while I figure out the optimal setup. I'd love to hear opinions.

After chasing this down for a few weeks after installation, I discovered that Unraid only enabled the on-board 1GbE NICs in my server. The PCI card with SFP+ was not enabled. Feature request would be to enable all interfaces during installation. Note: TrueNas Scale enables all interfaces, since I've been dual booting this machine.

@bmartino1Thanks. I had already installed the Mellanox Firmware Tools plugin. I assumed the interface would be enabled by default on install. It wasn't, but all I had to do was enable the interface. The board has 4 GbE + 2 SFP+, so I missed that on the network page. 🤦‍♂️ Once enabled, it came right up with no issues. Thanks again! Feature request / bug fix would be to enable, by default, on install any/all interfaces.

Thanks @bmartino1. I'm not using infiniband, just 10GbE ethernet via DAC cable. Will that work as is? Or do I need fiber transceiver and cable?

Data when booting server and Mellanox ConnectX-3 Pro into TrueNas scale and ethernet comes up, but ethernet does come up when I reboot into Unraid. admin@supermicro[~]$ uname -srm Linux 6.1.63-production+truenas x86_64 admin@supermicro[~]$ /sbin/ifconfig enp1s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.X.201 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.X.255 inet6 XX prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> inet6 XX prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global> ether 9c:dc:X txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 47076 bytes 49359473 (47.0 MiB) RX errors 0 dropped 1 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 16362 bytes 6274827 (5.9 MiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 admin@supermicro[~]$ sudo dmesg | grep -i enp1s0 [ 9.744788] mlx4_core 0000:01:00.0 enp1s0: renamed from eth0 [ 9.836760] mlx4_core 0000:01:00.0 enp1s0d1: renamed from eth0 [ 11.154076] mlx4_en: enp1s0: Link Up [ 48.685128] mlx4_en: enp1s0: Steering Mode 1 [ 48.740749] mlx4_en: enp1s0: Link Up admin@supermicro[~]$ netstat -i Kernel Interface table Iface MTU RX-OK RX-ERR RX-DRP RX-OVR TX-OK TX-ERR TX-DRP TX-OVR Flg enp1s0 1500 57271 0 1 0 20159 0 0 0 BMRU admin@supermicro[~]$ lspci | grep Ethernet 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27520 Family [ConnectX-3 Pro]
