I would like be able to set the Fill-Up order for Share Allocation Method. So i can define witch disk to fill up first. I have the followig scenario: Share 1 - disk 1, disk 3, disk 5 Share 2 - disk 1, disk 2, disk 4 both shares use fill up I would like to be able to set an option that disk 1 get's used last.

Migration took some time but is finally complete. Everything worked like described!

Will new config also effect docker/plugins/application settings? or will this be preserved? It doesn't say anything about it in the Tool Description.

For confirmation So i just hit new config, assign the disks like in the spare server and hit parity is valid and start up the array?

Is there some kind of documentation on how to transfer disk configuration to another flash drive? Since i want to preserve everything else (shares, network, docker, etc.) but the disk configuration. When switching the disks from the spare server to the Server with the best Hardware. i thought it was as simple as copying disk.cfg but when i look into disk.cfg i only se general parameters but not what disk is attached to what slot.

Dear Unraid community/support Hope this is the right forum if not maybe the mods could move it to te correct one. Current Scenario: I have 2 Unraid servers. A newer one with 11x 8TB (9 data, 2 parity) An older one with 8x 8TB (6 data, 2 parity) And i have an old spare server. I now want to switch to 7x 24TB hard drives (2 parity, 5 data) and migrate both servers into one running Unraid server on the newer hardware. I know that 5x 24TB for data is smaller than 15x 8TB but theres lots of free space and when i move the files on the discs together in the new build there would be 4TB of Free space left. Whats the best way to do this? I could replace and rebuild parity and then start rebuilding the data discs and move data to the free space of the 24TB discs. when all data is there i could remove the rest of the 8TB drives and then rewrite parity. But in this scenario i have an unprotected array for the time when parity is rewritten. Is there a better way out there where i could keep parity intact? Also had the idea to take the spare server (also older hardware) and build up a new unraid server with the new disks. Move all the Data onto it and then move the disks and unraid configuration in the Server with newer hardware. I think that this would be my favorite option since i don't have to work with an unprotected array. (allthough there is an offsite backup off everything, but the transfer speed isn't that fast so it would take weeks to restore data over the internet if an uprotected disc fails) But i only have two unraid licenses that are currently in use by the older and newer server. Would the free license cover this migration process with the spare server? And how to do this? simply offline copy the disc.cfg from spare server over to the licensed stick, and then replace all discs with the "new Array" and then start up? I want to preserve all plugins, docker, etc. withhin the newer server. What do you think is the best way? Is there a another way i missed? Hope it's something clear what i want to do. If you have any questions, don't bother to ask. Br

That fixed it for me its so easy to oversee/forget... Added all the variables to docker containers an enabled nvenc in tdarr node but still tdarr not working with gpu. Added NVENC H265 Plugin and now it works. I have one question. How to prioritize GPU Over CPU Usage? I trieb placing nvenc plugin on top of normal CPU plugin, but tdarr still starting with cpu encode until 2 threads are full, then moving on starting threads on GPU. I'd like to transcode with GPU first and if there is no more threads left fall back on CPU.

Update i have found something interesting. When i pin the Tdarr container to CPU 2-7 it runs on all them cpus But if i add CPU 0 or 1 then it only runs on CPU 0 or 1 and discards 2-7 Any Idea why this is happening? And can someone please move this thread to the Docker Engine forum.

Hi i have some problems with a docker container only using 2 from 8 available CPUs. I have installed Tdarr but it only uses 2 from 8 CPUs. I know i have messed with cpu pinning in the past because of other problems but it looks like currently there is no CPU pinning or isolation in place. I don't know if this is a problem from Unraid that is limiting the container to 2 cpus or from the app in the Docker container itself, please help. Is there any other place where i can limit the cpu usage for Docker? Thanks & Best regards.
