Pick a different CPU!!!! Make sure the Xeon you select has on-board graphics, or you will not be able to passthrough a discrete graphics card to a virtual machine. I had the E3-1230 v5 and was not able to pass through my graphics card until I bought a Xeon that has HD Graphics P530. (Please research, this requirement may or may not have changed when I dealt with this problem a year ago)
Your discrete graphics card would handle sound. No need for a sound card.
The 650w 80+Gold PSU you selected is OK. I have a 450W 80+Gold running 5 Hitachi drives, a Xeon E3-1245 v5, C236 motherboard, and an Nvidia GTX 1070 and everything hums along fine.
I would recommend at least 500GB SSD cache if you plan on virtualizing multiple machines as well as gaming.

BTW; as a temporary workaround, you can get sabnzbd running again by manually editing sabnzbd/config/admin/sabnzbd.ini and disabling HTTPS. Look for the line containing "enable_https" and change the value from '0' to '1'.
I tried this as well before deleting the .key and .cert files but every time I started sabnzbd back up again, HTTPS would be enabled in the GUI. Perhaps the combination of disabling HHTPS in the .ini file fixed it for me instead of just deleting the files alone.

I too updated the sabnzbd container today and now i cannot access it. Appears to be same as WonkoTheSane.

Stop sabnzbd, remove server.key and server.cert from the /sabnzbd/config/admin folder, then start back up sabnzbd.

+1 on reddit person talking smoke
Run it all on one machine. That's what unRAID is for! One stop shop to run all of those services in Dockerized format, all on top of a parity protected array.
Only issue I would see is if you're running a gaming VM on the unRAID box and Plex docker handling transcode jobs simultaneously while gaming.
-
I had similar problems last week that first showed itself with my unRAID box. Have the 2 LAN ports set up as LACP aggregated on my switch. unRAID pulled a 169 address, even after each reboot. I tried to break the bond but that didn't help. Then other clients, like my laptop, phone, etc dropped off the network with 169 addresses.
Only way I was able to get unRAID back was to set a static IP in network.cfg (unplugged the flash drive and put it in my laptop to change the file). After that, I found the problem was my router (a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite), rebooted it and downgraded from a recently applied firmware (which I believe was the root cause). Had to restart all my client devices to pull DHCP.
Long story short, as another person said, try manually setting a static IP in unRAID's network.cfg file.

So I am kind of in the same boat here.. the mover is running trying to move files onto the cache filling it up and I've turned off caching on my shares but can't kill the mover and I was in the middle of adding a second parity so I can't exactly restart either.. None of the commands in this thread kill the mover.. The rsyncs just keep coming back like zombies.. Are there any other commands that can be used?
Check my post above to see what I did. Basically, let it go until it finishes trying (and failing) to move files to the cache. Verify by watching the log. Then manually shut down/reboot. Fix the offending share's cache settings. Finally, invoke the mover to move data back to the array.
There needs to be a way to stop the mover in situations like this.
-
Now the mover has gone through all the directories and files of the offending share and finished trying to move them to the cache (and failed due to being full). But the mover still says its running and I cannot stop it or the array.
edit: I held the power button and the server shut down. Powered back up and activated the mover to move the files BACK to the array.
The bigger question is how "Cache: prefer" got set on this share when I only changed permissions on the share yesterday.
And if the mover can indeed be stopped. None of the commands in this thread worked for me.
-
Can this please be revisited?
None of the commands in this thread stopped the mover.
Somehow yesterday one of my shares got set to cache: prefer. The only settings I changed yesterday were user permissions.
Now this morning I woke to notifications that my cache drive is FULL. And I cannot stop the mover!!!

Thank you for this script! I hope all is well danioj

I used midnight commander to copy the .qcow2 file from cache to array. Would that miss any files?
I am not sure. But if you use ls -al from the command line, it will show all of the files.
Vdisk is a single file, but I recommend using cp to keep the vdisk sparse, you'll lose that using MC.
Good to know. Thanks.

After copying the VM disk from my array back to my SSD, the VM boots but is stuck at the windows 10 logo and spinning circle. I've turned off the GTX 1070 passthrough and just using VNC for simplicity's sake.
I'm baffled as to what is wrong! The VM disk on the array boot just fine last night as a test. Why on earth won't it boot now after I copied it with midnight commander to my SSD?
Make sure that you didn't miss any system or hidden files when you did the copy. (Some file managers don't automatically display/transfer those files.)

I just experienced my first hiccup with my Win10 VM (nvidia 1070 passed through) in a long long time. Only thing I did recently was update to 6.2.4.
I rebooted the VM from the Windows GUI and after logging in, the screen just goes black. So then I tried a shut down of the VM from the unRAID GUI and it wouldn't shut down. I had to force stop the VM. Upon reboot of the VM, it goes to the same black screen after logging in.
I'm rebooting the unRAID server to see if that does anything.
edit: Now my VM is just hanging at logging on. This was after seeing two blue screens: one about trying to write memory to read only followed by a system exception not handled. I'm stuck with a non-working VM now!
edit2: Luckily I had a backup of the VM on the array from two weeks ago. I pointed the VM to use that disk and it boot fine. Do qcow2 files go bad? It's a 300GB whopper!
-
32GB now. My VM's love it.

C236 WSI + E3-1245 = the bees knees
Best upgrade I've done so far in my Q25B setup!
-
Forgot to follow up. Moving to liftmaster2 solved the issue.
-
Lack of integrated graphics sticks out to me. But I'm not sure if it's required.
-
Just following up. I never got time to try the hack mentioned above.
I replaced the CPU with a Xeon E3-1245 v5 and the GPU passes through wonderfully to my Windows 10 VM!
-
You don't "need" IGPU. See https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=52960.0
Ran across that earlier. Nice hack! I'll try it tomorrow
-
I'm kicking myself now.
I think this is because the Xeon E3-1230 v5 doesn't have onboard graphics, therefore I can't passthrough the GTX 1070. Oversight on my part. Will send back and replace with a Xeon E3-1245 v5 (contains onboard graphics)

Hi all,
Trying to figure out what's going on with my new setup. Went from Intel i5-4430, Asus H87I-PLUS, and 16GB RAM to a nice new Intel Xeon E3-1230 v5, Asrock C236 WSI, and 32GB RAM.
I had a GTX 1070 passed through to a Windows 10 VM on my prior setup without any problem. Now with the new cpu/mobo/ram, upon boot of the VM, I get a Code 43 error in the Device Manager. I've changed nothing in my KVM settings.
Is this because the Xeon does not have onboard graphics and unRAID is preventing KVM from taking over? I'm struggling to figure out what changed that is preventing passthrough! Attached is the System information screenshot.

Well. I pulled the trigger.
I was able to score an open box deal on NewEgg for the motherboard and saved $50. Hopefully, it won't be too sketchy. If it is, I will just return and order a new one. I combined the open box deal with the Jet.com TRIPLE15 promotion for the other components, which ended up saving me another $75. (You can save up to $90 with this promotion, but I wasn't able to maximize the promotion. The motherboard wasn't available on Jet.com. It's a great deal if you're looking for a new build.)
Anyways, here's what I ended up with:
- Xeon E3-1245 v5 CPU
- ASRock C236 WSI (open box)
- Kingston ECC 16GB Module - DDR4 2133MHz
- Corsair SF Series SF450
- Lian-Li PC-Q25B Case
Total: $680.94
Thanks to everyone for all the advice. I think the ECC, the extra 2 SATA ports, and higher-end CPU will ultimately be a wise-choice. My last rig lasted me 6 years. And I'm hoping to squeeze another 6 out of this one! I'll throw some pictures up once I get running.
Also, unrelated... this board+CPU is a beast for an ITX. I may have considered it too if my budget was a little higher.
Thats a great setup and for a really nice price. Well done!
... I have the Asrock C236 WSI / Xeon E3-1230 v5 / 2x16GB DDR4 (non-ECC) on order!
"non-ECC" ==> WHY would you build a fault-tolerant server with a server-grade motherboard, a Xeon, and NOT take advantage of the error correcting memory support these components provide !!??
Not sure if it's fate, but my Amazon package with the non-ECC RAM was lost in transit. So I ordered 32gb of ECC RAM instead!

Here's Apple's official guide for Time Machine over SMB.
Is unRAID's SMB version 3.x?

What's weird is that it'll take only one command, from either Nest OR MyQ. Any subsequent command goes to deaf ears.
I'll have to try the liftmaster2 module rather than the MyQ. I do recall homebridge saying the MyQ module was deprecated but it installed anyway.

Picked up two at $159 yesterday. Shucked and preclearing with a fan pointed at them. Fan made a difference. Went from 42C to 30C
