Well it finally froze up again. I had to force shut off with hold of the power button. System booted up this time without whiping the bios and loaded Unraid. I selected Safemode without plugins and with GUI as I did back last post on the 14th. syslog attached using method recommended for flash syslog

Will do thank you. I will report back

@JorgeBHello again, I'm back unfortunatly and could use your help or anyone who might understand what I'm missing in my system log writen by the syslog server recommended to use. The server froze up agaib but this time the bios was intact but I found that the Unradi Flash was not reading the same description as usual in the bios and also would not load unraid. I took out the usb flash drive and placed it into a win 10 machine which it wanted to fit it but at the time said no. I located I believe the system log you might be requesting and posted it here below. At this time the Unraid flash has not been placed into the server machine until I hear back to do so. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. syslog

Thank you @JorgeB for your help. Take care and I will rememer to use this next time and also check my fans for issues first.

Hello All, Well, we're running into a problem with one of my unraid servers. I have included the diagnostics report. Hoping that some of you could help me find a solution to my problem. My server can be turned on for hours to a few days and then all of a sudden it locks up no user interface. I go to look at the unit which has a keyboard and mouse connected to it and the keyboard has 3 blinking LEDs on the top indicating something wrong. It's a weird situation. I have a LSI 6Gbps SAS SATA P20 card and also a p400 video card for transcoding. It seems I have to unplug (not all of the time) the p400 to start the machine up and takes me to the BIOS not actually starting up unraid from the usb. I either load up one of my profiles or can tell the bios to start with the usb thumb drive and off it runs. I then have to power off the machine plug in my p400 in the machine boots up to unrade no problem. I have tried installing a new p400. I have also tried swapping out the SATA drive card. Both of these units don't seem to be causing the problem or are they?, but then again hopefully this diagnostics zip file will tell what's going on. When I try and do a shutdown using the power button after losing GUI because sometimes the keyboard is not blinking. It does try and go into a graceful shutdown. I have been known to leave it there for a few hours and I still come back and it still hasn't fully shut down. Any direction of good help Please let me know how to proceed. Thank you all for your time and reading this. Added May 7, 2023 I did follow the drections for monitoring the system option 1 and no errors during that. I found the problem to be a fan going bad which was causing the motherboard bios issue and loss of the setting. I will call this error closed at this time and will report back if it ever comes back. Thank you all for reading an your support.

This card does in fact work and after 3 weeks its been working just fine. No complaints. Found it on eBay being sold as what it is instead of what else it can do in another system and the price wasn't jacked up because the seller didn't think it was used in crypto. Have fun, And Thanks again @JorgeB

Good to know thank you. I found this in the online manual at HPE in case anyone else is looking to get this type of card. HP 727252-001 761879-001 727523-001 12GB SAS Expansion Board for DL380 Gen 9 or 10 Drive bay numbering: SAS expander Drive numbering through a SAS Expander is continuous. SAS expander port 1 always connects to port 1 of the controller. SAS expander port 2 always connects to port 2 of the controller. SAS expander port 3 = drive numbers 1-4. SAS expander port 4 = drive numbers 5-8. SAS expander port 5 = drive numbers 9-12. SAS expander port 6 = drive numbers 13-16. SAS expander port 7 = drive numbers 17-20. SAS expander port 8 = drive numbers 21-24. SAS expander port 9 = drive numbers 25-28. Common configuration examples: Maybe there could be other ways of connecting it but for me this way is my plan. I will close this thread probably in the next week once I have tested it to work for me as expected.

Thank you. I ordered it. My gut said it should work but best to ask for advice first. Now I need to locate the instruction on the plug in slots from the LSI as pictures I've seen don't show them and olny ports 1 thru 9

Hello, I have a Lenovo 9240-8i with LSI 9210-8i FW 6Gbps SAS HBA P20 IT Mode ZFS for my unRAID system and I'm wondering if this card HP 727252-001 761879-001 727523-001 12GB SAS Expansion Board for DL380 Gen 9 will work with this card listed by using the proper SAS cables Mini SAS to Mini SAS Cable (Mini-SAS to Mini-SAS Cable) 1.6 Feet, 0.5m? As I have a 24 bay server case now and would like to use this card for it. Thank you for your help and time,

Thank you very much Binhex That fixed them up. GUI is back.

I think I cleared it out correctly. I hope so Thank you

Thank you Binhex for I waited for a fix to update my other unraid servers. Running 6.5.2 Pro but it seems that the fix didn't work for me when I tried to update the first one that now still gives me the error 404. So for the moment I'm still in the same boat. Any suggestions I should do to fix my problem and not loose GUI on my last server? Thank you for your time and this great version.

JSX12 Sent you a PM

Jevanso4 thank you for the answer. I'll check out drop box sometime further for other projects and ideas. Clowrym thank you that did the trick. It worked for me local and remote. I thought I tried this yesterday as well but I must have typed something wrong in the link. Thus why I came here today. Thank you both for your answers.

Hi All, I came to this forum because you all specialize in Unix/Linux Code for Unraid. I've been trying to figure out where I'm going wrong with this. I would like to change the Icon in the plex web and outside of the house IE Phone or roku at another location. I've researched and found instruction on changing the icons using SQLite Manager in Firefox. I use that per the instructions I've found on the web. The instructions have me editing the "com.plexapp.plugins.library.db" file. Here is the location of the instructions http://raspberrypihtpc.wordpress.com/how-to/how-to-plex-media-server-change-the-section-icons/ or http://linuxpluse.wordpress.com/2013/08/27/custom-icon-for-plex-media-server/ Where I think I'm running into the problem is the correct location that the files (icons) are located and how to have the correct format for their location. I would like to use them locally on the same unraid server either on a share or cache drive. Lets say I want to place them in the plex folder on my cache drive where the library and tmp folder are located. Would i type this? file://name of my server/mnt/cache/plex/Plex Icons/New Releases.png but if say I wanted to place the icons on a drive share in the unraid server would i type this? file://name of my server/mnt/disk10/My Files Backup/Plex Icons/New Releases.png I'm lost in this as even if I use the copy text from address bar from say a website sharing the icon in doesn't work. If anyone else has succeeded in doing this please let me know if you can't just shut off the plex server and edit the file save it and restart the plex server or do I need to do a complete Unraid reboot each time i want to test a new icon. Thank you for any help you can offer,
