  1. can we have this integrated in Unraid core asap?

    this plugin saved me a lot of times when automated moving and renaming screwed up....

    i assume it will not work again with the changes made to 6.1 so the sooner we get this in unraid core the better for everybody

  2. Apparently unMENU is not compatible with V6.1-rc3.  Any fixes in the works?  I still find unMENU useful when the unRaid gui is not accessible.  Thanks.

    Which is why I will NOT be upgrading to 6.1 unless this is made compatible or the features from this that I use are put into the unRAID GUI.

    We have the basic chicken vs. egg issue here.

     

    I do not typically upgrade my server to the latest version until it is out for a few days.  Therefore, I have no way to test or make changes to unMENU.

     

    From what I've read, the /root/mdcmd shell command no longer exists.  unMENU uses it to get the status of the array.

     

    /root/mdcmd was just a interface to /proc/mdcmd. 

     

    You could try putting it back into place and see if everything starts working once more

     

    You can re-create it by typing:

    echo 'if [ $1 == "status" ]; then' >> /root/mdcmd

    echo '  cat /proc/mdcmd' >> /root/mdcmd

    echo ' else' >> /root/mdcmd

    echo '  echo $* >/proc/mdcmd' >> /root/mdcmd

    echo 'fi' >> /root/mdcmd

    chmod 755 /root/mdcmd

     

    Ha. I was just looking at this too and see you responded.

     

    I was thinking to create a file called /root/mdcmd that looks like:

     

    #!/bin/bash
    
    /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd $*

     

    That work also?

     

    If so, there should be a command in the go file that if /root/mdcmd does not exist, to create that file. This would allow for the mdcmd command to be updated in a future release (not sure if ever would).

     

    Anyway, just my $0.02.

    if it moved, that would do it.  As I said earlier, I'm not running the newer release, so have had no opportunity to look around.

    even easier is to type:

    ln -s /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd /root

     

    I just upgraded to the latest release of unRAID 6.1-rc5, and it seems to be all that is needed to get unMENU working again.

     

    You can add a line to the config/go file to perform that link command each time you reboot.

     

     

    H Joe,

     

    If we put this in the GO file ... will it solve all issues for all other plugins that are not verified for 6.1 ?

    i have the swap plugin and VFS recycle bin plugin installed and would hate to lose those two

     

    Greetings

  3. 60 TB drive in a windows desktop could be the end of unraid .....

     

    no need for extra hardware .... all depends on the cost of that drive ....

    second one for backup and you have an array of 2 drives instead of 2 x 11 drives (if you count 6tb drives which are available now)+ 2 x sets of hardware

    less electricity...

    less heat in my office

     

    think i am going to buy a few more second hand 2tb drives to replace the 1tb 's is still have and hope these 60tb drive will not be too expensive :P

    was considering buying 2 x 4 TB drives for parity drives in my 2 servers and gradually replace when break .... but these super big drives may postpone/anullate any big changes that i was thinking off....

     

  4. My Windows Crashplan client (version 4.3) will not connect to the Crashplan engine through a Putty SSH session.  Like everyone else, it was working fine until this 4.3 update.

     

    I have done the following per suggestions in this thread:

     

    -Manually updated Windows client to 4.3 64-bit version (prior 4.2 version was also not connecting)

    -Copied .ui.info from the Crashplan docker ID directory to the Crashplan directory on the Windows desktop

    -Changed the Crashplan\conf\ui.properties as follows (yes, I uncommented the lines):

      serviceHost=192.168.1.10 (My unRAID IP)

      servicePort=4200

    -Edited my.service.xml in Crashplan docker to set <serviceHost> field to 0.0.0.0 (It was 127.0.0.1)

     

    I did this one at time and tried to connect after each step.  Connection to engine still fails.

     

    Any ideas?

     

    What is the best way to verify that the Crashplan docker engine is also at version 4.3?  I did run a check for updates a couple of times from the Docker tab and it reports up-to-date on all dockers including Crashplan.

     

    EDIT:  Found in the app.log in the Crashplan Log directory that it says the engine version is 4.3.  So, I now have a 4.3 client that cannot connect to the 4.3 backup engine.

     

    did you put the UI file in the appdata/crashplan folder ?

    not in program files/ crashplan folder as then it won't work.....

    please rename first the current ui file in the appdata/crashplan folder as that one is the one for your windows session.....

     

  5. hi,

     

    you need to copy it to c:\ProgramData\CrashPlan\.ui_info

     

    there will be probably one there from your local windows..... rename that one first as you will need it when you want to connect to your local windows session ....

     

    and for some reason you now need to change the service host too here

     

    c:\Program Files\CrashPlan\conf\ui.properties

     

    serviceHost=192.168.x.x

    servicePort=4200

     

    please use your own unraid ip

     

    original will probably be

     

    #serviceHost=

    servicePort=4200

     

    like this i can connect to my unraid servers ... need to rename the .ui.info every time though .... :(

     

  6. well i had same issue with the windows version ... was also running 4.20 there

    upgraded the windows version to 4.30 and it works but only for the local windows one..... even with the port tunnel i only get the gui from the local windows machine

     

    so i wonder if we need to upgrade to 4.30 to get it to work again ?

  7. did something change with the behavior to install packages in the extra folder ?

    i have a wake on lan package there that i need to auto wake up my other server

    and seems this is not installed automatically any more after the upgrade from b15 to rc4 ?

    do i need to add the install line again in the go file ?

  8. Due to both my unraid servers not being too powerfull did i need to run a third server which has a SA controller which is not supported by Unraid, so i choose to run Ubuntu on that one

    i installed docker on it and mounted more or less the same filestructure as my unraid machine

    this works well for all dockers we make in this community but i always need to start them with the whole line as we did in the beginning and it is a pita :P

     

    I was looking for other docker gui programs and am using dockerui for now but comparing that wih the docker gui from unraid is comparing apples with lemons :P

    so i was wondering if gfjardim was interested in bundling his gui in a linux package so we can run it on other OS too ?

    or if somebody knows another good gui?

    so far i tried dockerui / shipyard...

    dockerui is simple

    shipyard i didn't like

     

    so open for any other suggestions here ?

     

     

  9. ok running the docker on my ubuntu server docker installation

     

    only question is what we need to put here for value ?

    <Environment>

    <Variable>

    <Name>BRAINZCODE</Name>

    <Value></Value>

    </Variable>

    </Environment>

     

    i started the docker like this

    docker run -d --name="musicbrainz" -v /mnt/cache/musicbrainz-docker/data:/data -v /mnt/cache/musicbrainz-docker/import:/import -v /mnt/cache/musicbrainz-docker/config:/config -p 5000:5000 --restart=always sparklyballs/musicbrainz

     

    and he is downloading the database dump now .. but i was wondering what value that environment tag needs

     

    yeah i know it is crazy but i have not enough power on my unraid machines to run all dockers.... so i had a powerfull server which i use to run our dockers now :)

    unraids have only crashplan running now and hamachi....

    for the rest i mounted their shares on the ubuntu server

    and before you ask the server is a HP with a SA controller that unraid doesn't recognizes....

     

  10. Plex is a great option for this....

    they have a lot of apps for different tv's and a lot the little top boxes

     

    i myself have an Apple tv on one tv  and on the other TV an android based top box where i installed the android plex client on

    all works great .... my parents live 600 km's away from me and on their samsung smart tv i just installed the plex app and they can watch tv eps from my server :)
