No. It is not even possible to do what you suggest without setting a new config. Assuming you have already moved all the files off the disk. Just stop the array, click on the disk to get to its settings page, choose the filesystem, and start the array to reformat it. So after I moved stuff from disk 3 to disk 4. Stop the array. Choose the XFS format for Disk 3 and start the array and so on?

Yeah I am a little confused as well and may hold off though I would like to see if this would resolve some issues of mine.

so after I move my data ound [source] [dest] ------- ----------- -------- 1 disk3 disk4 to format disk 3 to xfs I will actually need to add it as a new disk with will become disk5. Won't this throw off parity? Disk 1 would become disk6 etc.

I also see this but not sure what they mean 2017-02-10 15:16:59.670+0000: 5924: warning : qemuDomainObjTaint:3885 : Domain id=1 name='Win8_DVD' uuid=082301cd-f39a-7943-7248-4ce331b070ee is tainted: high-privileges 2017-02-10 15:16:59.670+0000: 5924: warning : qemuDomainObjTaint:3885 : Domain id=1 name='Win8_DVD' uuid=082301cd-f39a-7943-7248-4ce331b070ee is tainted: host-cpu 2017-02-10 15:17:00.446+0000: 5924: error : x86FeatureInData:780 : internal error: unknown CPU feature __kvm_hv_spinlocks 2017-02-10 15:17:00.446+0000: 5924: error : x86FeatureInData:780 : internal error: unknown CPU feature __kvm_hv_vendor_id

I upgraded this morning to 6.3.1 hung up again. Seeing this in the log ata3.00: status: { DRDY } Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3: hard resetting link Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3: SATA link up 6.0 Gbps (SStatus 133 SControl 300) Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3.00: configured for UDMA/133 Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3: EH complete Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3: limiting SATA link speed to 3.0 Gbps Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x1 SErr 0x280100 action 0x6 frozen Feb 10 07:17:01 HPTower kernel: ata3.00: irq_stat 0x08000000, interface fatal error hptower-diagnostics-20170210-1032.zip

So if my action is like this - round [source] [dest] ------- ----------- -------- 1 disk3 disk4 Disk3 is new XFS disk 2 disk1 disk3 Disk1 is new XFS disk 3 disk2 disk1 Disk2 is new XFS disk 4 disk4 disk2 Disk4 is new XFS disk 5 My other questions are about Parity, shares, etc still confused on that part even after reading the links. Since everything will now be moved to different drives. It was raised from these statements from http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Upgrading_to_UnRAID_v6#Converting_Drives_from_ReiserFS_to_XFS Correct all of the drive includes and excludes for all shares, plus all other drive references Or use New Config to re-assign all drives back to their original drive number (marking parity as valid)

I may look at converting my disks to XFS as next thing though it will take a while to do.

Ok so I could start with disk 1 move all data between rest of disks and so on. Is there a best solution\command for moving data and verifying data moved ok?

Guys I would like to convert my disks to XFS. I have a Parity drive and 4- 3tb drives in the array. How can I convert the 3tb drives to XFS if I don't have a spare drive? Drives are 45%-75% full.

Restarted it when I got home yesterday. It was hung up by I would say 7:01 hptower-diagnostics-20170209-1909.zip

Happened again. Only can putty into it but nothing else. I also forgot to turn on Fix Common Problems plugin Troubleshooting mode at last reboot. Man I just don't know what the darn issue is....... Powerdown only seems to work from the box itself and not putty.

Ok same again only thing I could do was putty in and run diagnostics. hptower-diagnostics-20170208-0634.zip

One other thing is there a way to restart my machine when this issue happens besides hitting my restart button on the front of the machine? I guess since Putty is the only thing that works how can I do a clean restart?

Here is my system - unRAID 6.2.4 - Plus | Array 12 TB | 250GB SSD Cache | System ASRock X99 Extreme3 | Xeon E5-2658 V3 | 16 GB | Corsair CX600M I ordered my 2658 from China no issues. I have seen some of the Xeons local but not many and usually priced higher.

Ok happened again. Lost web access, share access. THis time I could run diagnostics from putty Also I was running Trouble shooting mode and it last ran a dump file on 2/2/15 why would that be? hptower-diagnostics-20170205-1018.zip

Ok so with my VM when I edit it under logical CPUs I have 0-23. Per your previous post I selected 2,3,4,14,15,16 This is what the XML file shows. I only added emulatorpin cpuset='0-12 to the end of it. Oh is emulatorpin suppose to be 0-12 or 0,12? <vcpu placement='static'>6</vcpu> <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu='0' cpuset='2'/> <vcpupin vcpu='1' cpuset='3'/> <vcpupin vcpu='2' cpuset='4'/> <vcpupin vcpu='3' cpuset='14'/> <vcpupin vcpu='4' cpuset='15'/> <vcpupin vcpu='5' cpuset='16'/> <emulatorpin cpuset='0-12'/> </cputune>

Yes that was a typo. For now with 1 VM I think that should work.

In regards to - isolcpus= and adding the emulatorpin cpuset= to the VM templet So power down the VM template and edit the xml file and add the following <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu='2' cpuset='14'/> <vcpupin vcpu='3' cpuset='15'/> <vcpupin vcpu='4' cpuset='16'/> <vcpupin vcpu='5' cpuset='17'/> <vcpupin vcpu='6' cpuset='18'/> <vcpupin vcpu='7' cpuset='19'/> <emulatorpin cpuset='0-12,1-3'/> </cputune> add the following to boot file append isolcpus=2,3,4,5, 6,7, 14,15,16,17,18,19 initrd=/bzroot

My VM is on my "unassigned device" . MY CPUs show up like the following. How whould I assign my VM if I want 4-6 CPUs for it? cpu 0 / 12 cpu 1 / 13 cpu 2 / 14 cpu 3 / 15 cpu 4 / 16 cpu 5 / 17 cpu 6 / 18 cpu 7 / 19 cpu 8 / 20 cpu 9 / 21 cpu 10 / 22 cpu 11 / 23

OK I turned TM on.

It happened again tonight No web access, lost access to shares...... Can Telnet, ping can't run diagnostics from telnet. just sits at "Starting diagnostics collection...... Is there a way to start from scratch but keep data and drive configuration? Thanks Chad

Since the last update I keep having an issue where I start my docker, go to webui, It shows http://ipaddress/#/client/c/MakeMKV with xrdp session MAKEMKV I click on OK but nothing happens. Not a fix but if I delete the docker and reinstall it it will work for a few tries and stop working again. ANy suggestions?

Ok so Tvheadend as docker. HDHomerun tuner - which one? Is it internal or external? Use 2tb drive in Unassigned Devices as recording space. That could work though my only concern of lately is my server is crashing randomly so worried about crashes and shows not recording. As of right now my current HTPC is still running right now for recording purposes only. I than have MCEBuddy cut out commercials and they land on my server and updated in Plex for playback on my Nvidia Shield.

wasn't part of that so need to look at other ideas.

Anyone have an opinion on this.... I guess I really want something that can look like WMC and have same recording capabilities. So something that offers the following - Enable Timeshift Group Recordings Series Recording New and rerun - Records all episodes of the selected show. New only - Skips recording episodes marked as repeats in the EPG Live only - Records the episode ONLY if marked as "live" in the EPG. On the Fly recording Support multiple HDHomerun tuners
