  1. So I have been running this for a good few years for plex, a few vms and family back up.

     

    However its quite dated and want to improve power usage and overall efficiency. I actually have 2 identical chassis with same Supermicro board but one has a faulty CPU socket.


    So I can strip that and put something new in there. Before migrating disks over. But with what is the question... I keep seeing posts about Ryzen builds... Should I go dual cpu again, have to make the jump to DDR4 but is going ECC going to cost too much?

     

    Current machine in signature. Would love some opinions 

  2. This morning I woke up to an email alert saying

    Event: Fix Common Problems - Server

    Subject: Errors have been found with your server (Server).

    Description: Investigate at Settings / User Utilities / Fix Common Problems

    Importance: alert

     

    **** Out Of Memory errors detected on your server ****

     

    Remote logged on to have a quick look and everything now seems fine but it's the first time I have had this error since using unraid.

     

    Memory usage was just under 50% at the moment but something clearly happened around 04:30 for an alert to be sent.

     

    At around 03:00 my unifi docker was updated

    Event: Community Applications

    Subject: Docker Auto Update

    Description: unifi-controller Automatically Updated

    Importance: normal

     

    But this has never caused issue like this before.

     

    I have attached diagnostics, hoping it is just a one off [emoji1696]http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5fb0fd621c32a/server-diagnostics-20201115-0954.zip

  3. Came across pseudotv-plex a few times just wondered if anyone using this on unraid?


    I wouldn't mind setting up a few channels of my media but the last time I tried it it was maxxing out all cpu cores.

  4. Hi

     

    I accidentally removed a source for a plex library, I added the library back but it lost all my poster art.

     

    So I thought I could just use the CA backup I have but it's 20gb and can't do it manually by extracting the files using winrar or 7zip

     

    Is there an easy or quicker way to restore just the plex app data or can I only replace everything that is backed up using CA backup / restore?

  5. I just bought the HDHomeRun CONNECT QUATRO to add to Plex and also with a few TVs that don't have an aerial point in our house.

     

    Anyone else using the QUATRO or DUAL version?

     

    Read there is a separate docker to handle the recording engine which I might look into.

     

    In the UK so will be interested to see how Freeview works on Plex for myself.

     

    I am hoping channel zapping is faster than when I tried this 5 odd years ago.

  7. same issue as well! Supermicro X9DRH-iTF w/ 2x Intel Xeon E5-2650v2. I have sensors populate when following the wiki's instructions but they all disappear when I click done.  An uninstall/reinstall of the plugin did nothing, but a reboot brought it to the same state, all my sensors present but whenI click Done they all disappear and nothing is configured.
    I have this same issue, not quite sure when it started but I have ∞°c for all temp values.

    Had a quick lol at the wiki page and I am wondering if perl package needs to be updated via nerdpack?

    I have Supermicro X8DT3-F motherboard with Dual Intel Xeon x5690

  8. Got the card plugged in and checked the nvidia plugin settings and its detected.

    GPU is the first larger red box and the LSI card for my backplane in the bottom. I am assuming this is correct.

    The only issue I have now is I cant RDP to my Win10 VM, I changed the setting for Graphics card from VNC to NVIDIA GeForce GTX1650 but I cannot connect to the VM using RDP do I need to add ROM BIOS or do I need to get dummy HDMI dongle as nothing is plugged into the card?

    Followed SI video on YT for Plex set up and confirmed transcoding working correctly.

     

    Looks like I can't do both at same time.

     

     

  9. I picked up a GTX 1650 low profile as it will fit in my 2u case... Should come by weekend

    I probably could have waited a few weeks or even a month or so but got bit restless and been wanting to add a GPU for for awhile.

    Need to do some reading before then to see how to install the nvidia version, I thought it was just a CA plugin

  10. Bump on this... Saw a GTX 1030 could be had for £90-100

     

    Still tempted to go with a GTX 1660 just because I am sure I read its similar performance or better than the older 1080 but cheaper?

  11. So I haven't actually bought a graphics card for maybe 10+ years and don't do gaming at all but have a Supermicro server with X8DTI-F-P motherboard, dual Xeon x5690 and 64gb ddr3 which is mainly used for Plex and a few different VMs.

     

    Can I use add something like a GeForce GTX 1650 and use it to Transcode plex and also passthru to VMs at same time.

     

    I only have 2u chassis so guessing it will have to be low profile card.

    if you use pia and you are seeing the above in your log then the issue is that the pia api is down, looks like they are having technical difficulties right now, see here:-

    https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivateInternetAccess/comments/fs7ja0/cant_get_forwarded_port/

     

    For now your only option is to set STRICT_PORT_FORWARD to 'no', this will allow you to connect but you will NOT have a working incoming port, so speeds will be slow at best.

     

    Just to be clear, there is nothing i can do about this guys, its a vpn provider issue.

    Thanks for update, set the value to "no" and can now open the gui again. Only getting around 8MB/s down but better than nothing

  13. Bad memory module I think took out one by one and think iv identified the correct one

     

    Not and its Booted.

     

    Think it's time to get rid of the 4GB sticks

     

    Could plex transcoding to RAM cause issues with older sticks?

     

    Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

     

     

    Must be another dead stick as only showing 36GB ram instead of 40GB

     

    Will look for some more sticks 16gb or 8gb x 6 ddr3 ecc on ebay.

     

     

     

  14. I noticed this morning my unraid server was not responding.

    I have just checked it and everything is running except I cannot not connect to GUI or using putty.

     

    Restarted it with no gui waited until login screen appears.

     

    Few mins later tried to access 192.168.1.3 (unraid static ip) and get 

    This site can’t be reached

    192.168.1.3 took too long to respond.

     

    Pinged it from command prompt and confused why it saying 192.168.1.31

    Can't access any logs, re-seated memory dimms, the only thing I am cautious about is the MX500 SSD I added. I wonder if thats failed but surely that wouldn't cause the system to stop responding.

     

    Just going to remove the SSD drive and see what happens.
