Thank you for the tips, gentlemen. The open files plugin gave me a good visual of what's going on.

I have all of the drives in my array set to spin down, however, there are 5 drives that are consistently spun up and never going down even when I am not moving any files. How can I check what activities are being called on those drives so that I can move those processes over to my cache drive?

would this cooler be enough to keep an E5-2690 v2 at safe temperature: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E1JGFA0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

@TBSCamCity So what's the verdict? Do the SAS controllers work fine unRAID? I'm looking at getting one of these cases and connecting the SAS ports to some expander cards.

I'm looking to upgrade my current Norco 4224 server case to a SuperMicro 4U 24 bay case on ebay. The ebay seller told me it was this model: https://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/4U/846/SC846E1-R900.cfm specs listed on ebay page: Backplane: SuperMicro BPN-SAS2-846EL1 24 x Caddies 3.5" 2 x Power Supply Complete Rails Kit Not include: CPU, RAM, Hard Drive, Raid Controller 30 days warranty This SuperMicro case is also being sold with this motherboard: https://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/QPI/5500/X8DAH_-F.cfm the form factor of said motherboard is: Enhanced Extended ATX I'm not planning on using it though. I want to put my ASRock EP2C602-4L/D16 SSI EEB motherboard into that case. My question is: Will I have to do any modification to fit an SSI EEB motherboard into this SuperMicro case? I'd rather it just fit without having to drill any extra standoff holes, but I want to know if it will be necessary before I make the purchase.

I have two questions: 1. What are the recommended dimensions and resolution for the thumbs? Is there a standard? 2. Can I simply create a PNG and drop it into a folder on unRAID and have it appear in the VM icon manager or is it necessary to install this script to get it done? If there is a drag and drop location, what is the directory?

I have a Windows 7 WMC VM to serve up my live tv to my Xbox 360 media extenders. I want to know if it is possible to set a hard drive in my server (connected to a sata port on my mobo) to show up as secondary internal storage on my VM. I know I can mount it as network storage using unassigned devices but that will not allow me to use it for my intended purpose. The Windows VM needs to see the drive as internal local storage. Is this possible?

I just installed a Windows 7 VM on my unRAID to be used as a Windows Media Center host with my cablecard. I got everything setup and ran into one final issue at the end. The DVR functionality in WMC must be pointed to a local drive on the Windows VM. The problem is that I do not have much space on my cache where the VM is located, so I wanted to make a "Recordings" share to be able to save the WMC recordings to it. Does anyone know how I could accomplish this? I could also mount a drive using unassigned devices, if necessary.

Thanks for the support, it's working fine now!

Woops. My mistake

I changed the VPN_PORT to 443 deleted the supervisord.log and ran the docker again. Result is the same. I copied the entire contents of the log file: delugevpn4.txt

I'm guessing it has to be a problem with communication with the VPN judging by this line: 2017-04-20 14:04:25,201 DEBG 'start-script' stdout output: [debug] Waiting for valid IP address from tunnel... but I have no idea. delugevpn3.txt

Okay, so I made the change to "custom" and added the cert and ovpn files from ipvanish back into the OPENVPN folder within Deluge but the webui is still not loading. The last thing on the log says "openvpn started" delugevpn2.txt

I used to have DelugeVPN docker working fine but had to delete the docker/container and reinstall. Now I'm having trouble loading the webui. I've attached the log for the docker and screenshots of the settings I input during setup. I'm using an IPVanish VPN. What did I do wrong? delugeVPN.txt

I had similar issues in the past and I think I narrowed the incomplete files down to having my drone search folder interval set too low. I had it check every minute for downloaded files. This would prompt a move to the TV share folder on files that were currently being extracted and as a result, incomplete.

haha no I deleted my original post to include your quote and by the time I had re-posted, your response was above mine. I hope this mysterious issue doesn't cause any more hiccups down the line.

You're right. Strangely enough, I input it the incorrect way and it still seemed to fix my issue. Welp, I'm not going to question it any further. lol

that worked like a charm! thanks for the help, bobbintb.

So if my Sonarr folder is located in an Appdata share, it would be: chmod 755 -R -f /user/mnt/appdata/sonarr where would I input this?

I noticed that error. It has happened to me before where there was write permissions and I had to reset them. How do I go about doing so without breaking the other dockers?

My Sonarr has been working perfectly for quite some time now up until about an hour ago. It stopped responding so I restarted it but I didn't have access. I removed the docker and the image thinking that would do the trick, but it is still giving me an error saying: [Info] AppFolderInfo: Data directory is being overridden to [/config][Error] PidFileProvider: Unable to write PID file /config/nzbdrone.pid and notably: [Fatal] ConsoleApp: EPIC FAIL! I uploaded the full log with more info in case it is needed. How can I fix this? Thanks. sonarr error.txt

Thanks, fellas. That eases my worries a little and lets me cancel this as a possible reason as to why my server has been restarting on its own lately.

my unraid server has been having constant restarts on it's own without me prompting them. When it restarts, it says there was an unclean shutdown and begins a parity check. My Fix Common Problems is showing two things of note: - Call traces found on your server: It asked me to run a memtest so I ran one pass and it came back with no errors. and also irq 16: nobody cared found on your server I've attached the diagnostics out. I'm not sure what the problem is and any help would be greatly appreciated. media-diagnostics-20170319-2018.zip

I guess this error message can also apply to my post lol bumping to see if anyone has any suggestions.

I was changing some settings on my DelugeVPN docker when my unRAID webui started becoming extremely laggy. It got to the point that I had to restart it. When I came back online, I looked at my Fix Common Errors plugin and I got a "irq 16: nobody cared" notice that recommended I post my diagnostic log on here for further assistance. Not sure if these errors were related to my docker or something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated. media-diagnostics-20170306-1743.zip
