  1. Hi @JorgeB, thanks for your help! That did the trick and all of my drives are back in operation 🙂
  2. Thanks @JorgeB! The rebuild is still running but I'm guessing you are right and the unmountable drive won't be mountable. Here are the diagnostic files from my server. Please let me know if you spot anything or if there is anything else I should try. Thanks!! tower-diagnostics-20231209-0938.zip
  3. Ok, I think things are okay....with a HUGE thanks to Unraid for the new Unraid connect service 🙂 If you have been saving Flash Drive backups In Unraid Connect, this is where you download the most recent backup: It makes sense, but it might be easier if it said something like download/generate backup. Or maybe it was just because I was in a panic. Once the backup was downloaded, I copied it over the new Flash Drive that I was going to use. Next, I booted my Unraid server using the new flash drive. I then signed into Unraid connect and it gave me this option: Long story short, I am SO glad that Unraid Connect is an option and that I had set up my server to use it. Two of the drives were unmountable, but they are now being rebuilt. My hope is I don't lose any data, but I'll know more in the morning. Thanks to everyone!
  4. Please help. I had to replace the power supply in my Unraid server. When I did that, I accidentally put the PC case on its back, which bent/broke the USB flash drive that was plugged into the back of the motherboard. I tried to boot off of the broken drive but the computer does not recognize it being plugged in. I downloaded the USB Flash Creator and created a new flash drive using Unraid 6.12.5 (the version I was running on my server). It installed okay, but I can't find any way to restore my Flash Drive backup from Unraid Connect. I do have local backups of the Flash Drive but they are stored on the Unraid array (I realize now that was a bad idea). I have 10 data drives and 2 parity drives in this system, as well as 3 SSDs that I use for the cache drive and as unassigned devices. The array was encrypted with a password/key. I apologize but I’m really freaking out about what to do to fix this. I have been using Unraid since 2014 and this is the first time I’ve been scared that I will lose all my data and my configuration. Is there any hope? Can someone at Unraid send me a copy of the Flash Drive backup from Unraid Connect? Or a Pro.key file for a new flash drive? Or what should I do?? Thank you for any help that you may be able to offer. Scott
  5. Hello, I have a hopefully simple question. How do I set Plex to use the plexpass version (1.28.2.6106-44a5bbd28) instead of the public version (1.28.1.6104-788f82488)? I have the PLEX_CLAIM parameter set to my plex claim (claim-y4Z_--------------SN) and the version set to latest (I also tried beta and plexpass but nothing seemed to change). Plex will show the encoding with an (HW), but nothing will actually play so I am guessing that I need the updated version. Thanks in advance!
  6. What would you move them to? I used Emby for a while but it never really clicked. Are there any other options it there?
  7. I'm sorry. I have read every single post in this forum and I was (and I still am) confused. Honestly, this is technology that I'm not very familiar with, and I haven't worked with very often. I hoped my post would be a good way to make sure I was on the right track. At the same time, I apologize, since it appears my post has annoyed you. Thanks! Scott
  8. Hi everyone, I'm in the middle of changing my UnRaid server, and I went with the I7-12700. In my old system I had a cheap NVidia card that seemed to work for some transcoding, but until now I've mostly only downloaded 720p shows. That's mostly because I share Plex (with just one other person), and that was easier to transcode 🙂 I need help to understand exactly what people are doing: Can Plex, running on UnRaid 6.10.3, use the iGPU on the 12th gen chips at all? I saw something about only when using HDR, but I have no idea if that's correct, or how to enable/disable HDR. Are the 11th gen chips in the same boat? Is this problem only with 4K shows? I'm messing around with those now, but I'm not sure if this problem affects every video format or just some. Is anyone is using the iGPU on a 12th gen chip at all, is it documented anywhere how they were able to do that? I've read there are kernel changes that will fix this (?), but I'm still not sure if that is an UnRaid change or a Plex change? Sorry, I am just completely lost. Thanks for your help! Scott
  9. Thanks Johnnie! I had tried to figure out what the naming for the rc releases is on the aws page, but I couldn't get it figured out. This is exactly what I need. 🙂
  10. I was on Unraid 6.8 when I noticed that Acronis True Image started having problems creating/validating backups that were saved on my Unraid array. I'm not sure when the problems began, but I went back to 6.7.2 and everything is fine. I'd like to download and install the RC versions to see if I can figure out where the problem began to hopefully narrow down why it's happening. Is there a way to download the release candidate versions after the next rc or stable version is released? Thanks! Scott
  11. I was also having problems getting openvpn-as back up and going. Tonight I made sure everything was completely deleted and the I download the linuxserver version using the Apps tab. This way it wouldn't be using any of the settings that I might have in my personal dockers (I don't know if this part really mattered though). After I first ran the docker I saw these errors in my log file: ... But after that the web UI was working again. I stopped and started the docker and everything seemed to come back fixed: The last part I had difficulty with was figuring out where I could download the connection profile. I finally found that if I changed "https://###.###.###.###:943/admin/" to be "https://###.###.###.###:943/?src=connect", I was able to download what I needed. I'm sure there is an easier way but this did seem to work. Everything seems to be back in order! Sorry for such a long post, but I thought it might be helpful to see what I saw.
  12. Johnnie, thank you for posting this! My situation is a bit different as I'm running Unraid under ESXi, which isn't supported, but has done exactly what I need it to do for years. In my case, everything works perfectly using ESXi 6.0 and ESXi 6.5 but as soon as I tried upgrading to ESXi 6.7 I kept getting the "VFS: cannot open root devise "(null)" or unknown-block(0,0): error -6" message. I tried everything I could think of and had basically decided that ESXi 6.5 was the highest I could use while keeping Unraid. I added the " root=sda" on each of the append initrd lines, rebooted the VM, and it booted up perfectly. Honestly, I have no idea what this does or why it would make any difference at all, but it fixed booting an Unraid 6.6.6 VM in ESXi 6.7 Thanks!
  13. Thanks! This solved my problems. I left the INTERFACE variable alone (it was set to eth0 anyway) and changed the network type from Host to Bridge , saved the changes and openvpn-as started working perfectly again 🙂
  14. Hi Saarg, I was wondering if you had a chance to work on this template? The ddclient docker I have been using didn't update after an IP change last week so I was looking for a newer version. This seems like the newest version and if you have (or can make) a template to pull it from the linuxserver site that would be awesome! Thanks for any help you might offer! Scott
