Thanks

My sons movie server mobo died and I've got a new one setup and going with 6.8.3. On the old server I had renamed his tower to stephentower because we have another server with the tower name. I can't remember how I changed the name or how I made it have a static ip address. Can someone either tell me how to do these things or point me to a tutorial. I checked the faq and didn't see anything, thanks

Ok I will upgrade to P14. Thanks

Ok after doing a little research I find that the syslog errors are due to cables or a bad controller port etc. I will check into that.

I got a M1015 off of feebay and flashed it on my asus pb5-vm do motherboard using the p11 f/w dos method under 5 rc8a. It is installed in the video card slot. I have it up and running a parity in my 15 disc unraid. I have a few questions though. 1: I'm only getting 74 mb's in the parity check. I thought it would do around 120mb's. my data drives are all 1tb wd eacs the parity is a wd 1.5tb faex 2: I have looked in my main to do this "In myMain, you can add the custom drive attribute "smartopt" and set it to "-A" on each drive connected to the controller." But I don't see where this is done. Can someone give this simpleton a step by step on how you do this so I can get my temps to show correctly. 3: With my 2 old slow promise controllers I did not have syslog errors but with the M1015 I get these errors, Dec 7 17:35:38 Tower kernel: ata8.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x700100 action 0x6 (Errors) Dec 7 17:35:38 Tower kernel: ata8: SError: { UnrecovData Dispar BadCRC Handshk } (Errors) Dec 7 17:35:38 Tower kernel: res 50/00:00:26:f4:8e/00:00:01:00:00/e0 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) (Errors) Dec 7 17:42:09 Tower kernel: ata8.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x700100 action 0x6 (Errors) Dec 7 17:42:09 Tower kernel: ata8: SError: { UnrecovData Dispar BadCRC Handshk } (Errors) Dec 7 17:42:09 Tower kernel: res 50/00:00:26:c8:e5/00:00:04:00:00/e0 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) (Errors) Dec 7 17:48:49 Tower kernel: ata8.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x700100 action 0x6 (Errors) Dec 7 17:48:49 Tower kernel: ata8: SError: { UnrecovData Dispar BadCRC Handshk } (Errors) Dec 7 17:48:49 Tower kernel: res 50/00:00:26:f4:50/00:00:08:00:00/e0 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:27 Tower kernel: ata8.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x700100 action 0x6 (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:27 Tower kernel: ata8: SError: { UnrecovData Dispar BadCRC Handshk } (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:27 Tower kernel: res 50/00:00:26:b4:26/00:00:09:00:00/e0 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:34 Tower kernel: ata8.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x700100 action 0x6 (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:34 Tower kernel: ata8: SError: { UnrecovData Dispar BadCRC Handshk } (Errors) Dec 7 17:50:34 Tower kernel: res 50/00:00:26:10:34/00:00:09:00:00/e0 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) (Errors) Can anyone help with these issues? My unraid has served me well since 2008. I just want to be sure it is running as well as it can with the upgraded controller. Thanks in advance

Thanks, I'll replace the drive.

I've just built a 3 disk 4.7b1 server for my son the array is configured and running. When I try to acess the shares on the network windows 7 says that tower won't accept the connection. Accesing tower works fine. Sys log is attached. Any help is appreciated. Luckyflyer stephentowerlog.txt
