Hey Guys, I was just wondering as to whether I can have an offsite TrueNAS server, and backup my main unraid server to that offsite one. If so, can I have it setup to automatically update when I make changes on my main server, but not make a completely new backup? If anyone knows how to do this, or tutorials, please let me know. Thanks, The-Vault Master

What happens when you try to access the Web GUI?

I have fixed the problem, it was an issue with my switch, where it would cut out every now and then

Done, thank you

Hello fellow Unraiders I have been having an issue with my Unraid server in recent weeks, where the entire Web GUI and all my Docker Containers and Virtual Machines will freeze. A force restart of the server fixes the issue but for less than 30 mins, and then I get the same issue again. I am only running 4 Docker containers and 2 VM's My Server is: Intel Core i5 4570 4GB DDR3 RAM 500GB HDD for Parity, 240GB SSG as Disk 1, 160GB HDD as Disk 2 It is a HP Prodesk 400 G1 SFF I have linked the diagnosis bellow: Does anyone know why this issue keeps persisting? the-vault-diagnostics-20260424-0022.zip

I am having the same issue, where the GUI won't work after a very short amount of time, I have only started using Unraid though.

Hey Guys, I've been getting very mixed google views on what things I should be running on my Unraid Homelab Server. I am currently running a Home Assistant Virtual Machine, and a Minecraft Server, Terraria Server and Uptime Kuma. I am also using Unraid's inbuilt Tailscale VPN and configured SSH, Subnet Routing and Exit Nodes. I am planning to get Pi-Hole, and configure Tailscale into that. What are some of the best Virtual Machines and Docker Containers that I can run in my Homelab that will be fun to play with, but also useful.

Was that the actually command you used and it didn't post?

You are correct, I have just tried it and it has worked. Thank you for your help

Let me know if it works

That should fix the issue

I have done some research, and the issue is in your code, you said 'xfs_repair -n /dev/sdx1'. The -n in this code means no changes, try running that code but remove the -n, so make it 'xfs_repair /dev/sdx1'

Also, Unraid can create a new file system on drives when you first have an array I think, is there a setting in Unraid that can do that?

Are you storing anything important on these drives? If not, doing a wipe with a software such as Disk Wipe and then putting them back in the array might help. If there is important data on them you could make a clone and then wipe the issued disk and then re-install the data

Can you then run Unraid on Proxmox or TrueNAS on Proxmox?

I have heard about TrueNAS now having native support for docker containers, and it is free. Is this a better option, or are the advantages of Unraid better? How does proxmox work and what does it do and is that also a better option?

Thank you for your help

I also have a question. I live in Australia, so an Unraid licence costs $71. I am a beginner on Unraid and homelabbing, I am wanting a reliable software that can be a NAS, and host docker containers while also having a good UI. Is Unraid worth it or is there a better option?

Okay, thank you for your help. I will try that

I was doing some research, and I have heard that for the trial Unraid uses the Mac address of the device you use and not the USB, will a new usb work or will it give me the same issue again?

Yes, I have reinstalled Unraid, but now I've created a seperate post about that and what isn't working

I have been having issues with my server where I can't access the Web GUI and none of my docker containers are working. I went to the actually server and on a display connected to it, I tried to enter the admin username and password, but it just timed out after 60 seconds. I reinstalled a fresh version of Unraid on the same USB and reconnected it, now everything is working fine but I can't regain the 10 or so days that were left on my free trial. This means I can't start my array unless I buy I licence. Does anyone know how I can regain my trial period?

Do you guys know why my Unraid server isn't letting me access any of my docker containers or the UI. It is just there but the browser UI isn't working and nor is the console on the server
