    6.7 Network Troubles

    in General Support

    If simply using a USB2 port does not solve the problem then it might be worth recreating the USB stick using USB creator in case any of the files on the stick ended up corrupted somehow.   This seems to have helped some people in a similar situation.    Before doing that make sure you have a backup of the config folder from the current USB stick as that contains your license key and all your configuration information.   After recreating the USB stick you then replace the contents of the config folder with those from your backup.

    I might try that first as I like the idea of using USB 3 if possible.

    6.7 Network Troubles

    I see some other people are having problems with 6.7 and network settings. I don't get an networking under 6.7. Doesn't pull a valid IP. I have tried clearing out my settings to default and that doesn't seem to do it. Also my diagnostics don't seem to be sticking from 6.7. I run them under 6.7 from the console and they save. I can see them in /boot/logs but once I shutdown they are gone. I also can't see any of my old logs in /boot/logs under Unraid but can under another computer. Here are my logs from 6.6.7.

    Hi there,

     

    You can actually just pass this environment variable to the container: 

    
"RCLONE_VERSION="<version>"

    (default is "current") and it will download the specified version for you.

     

    I've kickstarted a build aswell though.

     

    See Docker file: https://github.com/tynor88/docker-rclone/blob/dev/Dockerfile

    It looks like there is an extra variable in your code.

    Network Issues

    I have tried upgrading to 6b12 but I am having serious network issues. I first thought it was the Realtek chipset that is on my motherboard but I just bought an Intel card and it doesn't work either. They both work in version 5 though. If I toggle the intel card up and down it will pull an ip for a few seconds and will ping my router. Then it gets major packet loss (88%) until it goes completely down a minute later.

    --rebuild-sb?

    So tonight I upgraded my motherboard and now have 3 unformatted drives. After I swapped the motherboard I checked the array and everything was green. I then upgraded to 6v12 but my network card wouldn't work. Downgraded back to 5.06 and took a closer look at the array. 3 Unformatted disks. Ran reiserfsck --check /dev/md and it wants me to run rebuild-sb. Any help would be appreciated. I have data on these drives and would like to save it.

    3x5.25" 5x3.5" cage with port expander?

    in Hardware

    Posted

    I just bought a new HDD and I am out of room in my case for it. I am planning on getting a 3x5.25" bay cage for 5x3.5" HDDs but am also out of sata ports. I remember seeming a cage that have a built in port multiplier but can't seem to find it. My motherboard only have 4 sata ports and I have a 2 port expansion card that is also full. I know it supports port multiplication. Are there any out there our should I go another route?

    Here is what I would try.

    1. put them on a dedicated network. I realize this is kinda pointless if you want to access the data on them though.

    2. Make sure you have data de-dupulication set to minimal.

    3. http://support.crashplan.com/doku.php/recipe/speeding_up_your_backup

     

    Good Luck backing up 15TB to Crashplan over your 4mbps upload. You will need lots of patience especially with Crashplan's variable upload speeds. Currently increasing your speeds won't even help since I have been getting 1.5-3mbps recently.

     

    It sounds like you are on the right path having two servers and doing the initial backup locally and then sending it offsite. Once it is offsite then then the incremental backups will be done over your upload and not affected by Crashplans's servers. Just put that server on a connection that has a faster download than your upload.
