  1. I am trying to figure out how to remove NUT as it conflicts with the built in UPS tool but I can't get it to work. I have tried going into the plugin manager and clicking remove but get the following: Any suggestions would be appreciated. plugin: removing: nut.plgWriting nut confignut group already configurednut user already configuredUDEV lines already exist in rc.0,6UPS shutdown lines already exist in rc.0,6Stopping the UPS services... Network UPS Tools upsd 2.7.4Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4plugin: run failed: /bin/bash retval: 2 A
  2. I know this is an old thread, but I am looking for instructions on how to set up my unraid 6 server as a master network UPS server. It is currently set up to monitor it's USB-connected UPS and I would like it to broadcast this on the home network so that other computers can shutdown gracefully as well.
  3. Thanks to all! The third parity check finished and shows no errors. Last check completed on Thu 24 Nov 2016 11:24:07 AM PST (today), finding 0 errors. Duration: 11 hours, 24 minutes, 6 seconds. Average speed: 48.7 MB/sec I found the checkbox! I think the automatic check that was done happened without writing the parity.
  4. Thanks. I will check for that checkbox when the current check is done!
  5. Thanks to all, I am running another check as I type which should be done in a few hours. When I run a parity check from the "main" tab, is that a "correct" or "nocorrect" one? I see that I can schedule a monthly check to be either correct or nocorrect...
  6. Here is the diagnostics file. Thanks for looking at it. tower-diagnostics-20161124-0753.zip
  7. How do I do that from the console? None of the disks seem to be having any problems...
  8. I recently had the monthly parity check run and noticed a large number of errors: Event: unRAID Parity check Subject: Notice [TOWER] - Parity check finished (244153054 errors) Description: Duration: 11 hours, 28 minutes, 20 seconds. Average speed: 48.4 MB/s so I ran it again, thinking that if it had just run, the parity errors should be finished, but on the second run, I got: Event: unRAID Parity check Subject: Notice [TOWER] - Parity check finished (244153054 errors) Description: Duration: 11 hours, 58 minutes, 21 seconds. Average speed: 46.4 MB/s However I notice that the number did not change when I ran it again a third time Getting numbers like this make me think that I have something set wrong with my system. Or do I need to clear something? I am running 6.2.4 and have a 2 TB parity disk and 8 other disks ranging in size from 7500 GB to 2 TB, Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance (Ps id did a number of searches for parity errorsand did not find an answer to this problem)
  9. I have attached my diagnostics. tower-diagnostics-20161025-1218.zip
  10. I will try and get the diagnostics. I just booted windows 10 on the same hardware and have run a program called burnin test and it seems to run fine. I will try running with 8 GB for a while and see what happens. I will try and take a photo of the gibberish, next time I see it. How do I best get system diagnostics? Thanks for your help!
  11. I have a 6.2 install which I am booting from a 8GB USB key which has 8 attached drives. The system has 12 GB of RAM. The system has been repeatedly crashing, and I am unable to figure out why. I have not been able to find anything in the logs. Frequently on reboot the system boots to a page with gibberish on the console screen instead of the usual text. I ran memtest for 24 hours which found no problems. Any suggestions on further troubleshooting? It seems as if it might be a hardware problem, but I have not been able to figure out what it could be.
  12. I am still not sure why the #!/bin/bash line gives an error, but the system seems to work in spite of that. I am wondering if that does not apply to unraid 6.2.
  13. Thanks Squid and trurl! Notepad++ is doing the right thing now! I have things up and running now! I have done a test rsync operation from my windows desktop using deltacopy client and also using my synology diskstation. I need to play a bit more and configure things, but will write up the process as a newbie. I still get an error message stating "no such file or directory" in response to line 1 of the s20-init.rsyncd file: #!/bin/bash, but the rsync server is is up and running, copying files into my default unraid share... I now need to figure stuff out at the synology hyperbackup end of things as I am not sure what the difference is between "remote rsync server" and "remote data copy". Both of these backups run, and the key difference is that in the second one I can make the server keep copies of deleted files and the files on the unraid server are easily visible in the share. In the former, I can only view the files from the hyperbackup program on the synology diskstation. This looks as if my plan to backup significant sections of my Synology diskstation to an Unraid server via rsync will work! Over the next week I will test the system to back up more than an individual drive's worth of data to see where things end up.
  14. I think I am getting closer However, when It tries to run the s20-init.rsyncd file, I get: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: no such file or directory and then nothing more. I am editing the flash drive over the network using notepad++
  15. I am trying to follow those steps, but when I look at the flash drive, all I see are config and syslinux folders... Do I need to create the other folders on the flashdrive? Apologies, I am a total Unraid (and linux) newbie. I did find the go script in the config folder
  16. Thanks. That is what I needed, I think. I had searched, but did not get that thread (or did not realize it was what I needed). I will now try to figure it out step by step. I presume I should shut the system down and then create/edit the necessary files on the usb stick.
  17. Still trying to find out if there arte any instructions for setting up unraid as an rsync destination...
  18. I would like to set up an unraid 6 server with multiple varied-sized disks as a backup server for my Synology diskstation. It seems as if the only way to do this is to have an rsync server running on the Unraid server. Am I correct? Or is there a way to Use the unraid server to backup the synology shares. If Rsync is my best bet, is there a quick guide to setting up rsync on unraid?
