  1. Keep them, because these can be re-used in the new set up (will save you to redo all information collection)
  2. I believe the start/stop in the middle isn't really needed. At least it worked for me recently to do stop / unassign / assign / start (unRAID will ask you to do the rebuild as it detects a different drive)
  3. I believe I have seen it use 9 Megs per day on my server. I do know I had to use more than 256 Megs since SA chewed through at least 256 megs. At a value of 384 meg for log my system is stable. I can validate this in a few hours. Yes, file size may vary depending on your hardware, e.g. more hard disks is more info to store.
  4. Ahum, ahum ... I thought, you guys are all Commonwealth
  5. I am referring to a Windows machine cause most people have one, I don't use a MAC myself, but I am pretty certain a similar utilty exists on MAC to do a disk check and repair (FAT32).
  6. Yeah, I don't expect you to run out of space within 24 hours, but a faulty disk can generate quite some 'noise'. Did you telnet into the system and check the folder /var/log ?
  7. With unRAID v6 you can create SMART reports for each of your drives and post them on the forum. There are several experts here who can give you advice based on those reports.
  8. This is indeed the suspicious part. It should list all names with a starting capital D letter. I am wondering if there is some file corruption, have you tried to do chkdsk on a windows system to see if there is any corruption on your flash drive ?
  9. Check the serial numbers. The webGUI will show you for each slot the expected drive with serial number when the array is stopped (see Main -> Array Devices). Check this with the one you pulled out.
  10. I would expect that to be the case. I think you need to stop/start the array before that setting can be changed (or at least before it takes effect). In v6 these settings can only be changed when the array is stopped.
  11. My personal view is to create anyway more space than the default 128MB for /var/log. In v6 Docker logs are stored in this folder too and the limit may be reached quickly. The Dynamix Stats plugin creates a 6MB log file for each subsequent day, which rotates monthly, they will eventually fill-up /var/log when set to 128MB.
  12. Delete the orphaned containers first, it will do already quite a cleanup. Check afterwards what has left. You need to re-install those containers to make them work (keep in mind these are only the applications, the data is still preserved).
  13. /boot/extra means this is the top level folder extra on your flash drive. If you have remote access to your flash drive from your Windows machine, you can just open windows explorer and create the folder extra. Then copy the just downloaded .txz file to that folder. No the folder packages is not used. Once on the temperature settings page turn on Help, which gives you more background information. Btw Help is now available for many pages and settings, make use of that! Basically do: Detect -> Save -> select sensors
  14. Change Basic View to Advanced View and you will see all Dockers.
  15. It looks like you have created a user share with the name "disk 2", this will interfere with the standard disk sharing. Delete the offending user share. And one more step... Stop your array and goto "Global Share Settings". Check that under Included/Excluded disks there are NO DISKS checked.
  16. You need the perl package, it has been removed from unRAID 6 final. Download it from here and save the package in /boot/extra Either reboot your system or do a manual installation using 'installpkg'.
  17. By default OPcache looks at the timestamp of the files to detect changes. If want you to deep dive, have a look at the settings file /etc/php/conf.d/opcache.ini
  18. What is that one? Haven't seen it... Haven't announced this one officially, but you may install it. It uses the Zend OPcache functionality to cache PHP scripts, this can help accelerating the execution of PHP since the source doesn't need to be compiled each time. #php -v PHP 5.4.41 (cli) (built: Jun 16 2015 09:20:38) Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v7.0.5, Copyright (c) 1999-2015, by Zend Technologies
  19. Worth pointing that enabling the Help via the button at the top right of the unRAID GUI would have pointed this out as well. Yeah, quite some time and effort went into Help. I guess people still need to get used to it
  20. Just clear all boxes and press Apply, this will revert settings to default.
  21. Good idea, I add that for the next version. Thanks Note: the error message of the copy command should not stop diagnostics from creating the zip file, this message will be suppressed in the next version.
  22. Change : Window -> Translation -> Remote character set = UTF-8
  23. I bought 4 HDDs from pras1011 and these are now happily spinning in my system. All of them are in perfect state and arrived well packaged.
  24. You can't, the only other option you have is to move Active Streams to the end of the Dashboard. This is achieved by giving different sequence numbers to the pages displayed on Dashboard DashStats.page ==> Menu="Dashboard:1" ActiveStreams.page ==> Menu="SystemInformation Dashboard:2" thank you ... another thing is the change needed every time i reboot as it looks like its not persistent? All files are kept in RAM memory so a reboot would undo your changes.
