I've had my UnRaid up and running for over 4 years. Just recently, I can't access it via the tower.local or LAN address. I've connected a monitor to the server and successfully logged in after reboot. Tried a different browser, same thing. It just stalls. But if I look in my Finder (MacOS 10.14.4) under Locations, there is my UnRaid server. I can access the folders and files within. How can I get back in?

I've had my UnRaid for a couple years and done the OS updates from another computer successfully. But twice, I've had to pull the computer out of the rack and unplug the flash drive the run the executable file "Make Bootable". Is that supposed to run automatically after the OS is updated?

I just did the incremental update on my server and I was instructed to reboot. I did via the button on the web control panel. Now it says to insert a bootable drive. How can I get it back online?

I think I solved the issue but maybe not the cause. I connected a monitor to the Tower and the display indicated that there was no boot drive present. I removed the USB drive and ran the make_bootable command on my Mac. It seems to be running normally. But I don't know why it lost the bootable partition.

I changed wifi routers in hopes of fixing a network issue and the tower (connected via ethernet) no longer shows up in my browser or from the desktop. I switched back to the the original router and still nothing. I've restarted the tower several times. I reserved an internal IP address for the tower but it still doesn't show up. I realize that this is probably more of a hardware issue but since I am running unRaid, I thought I would pose this to the experts. The version of unRaid is whatever was available 3/15 when I bought the license. Any suggestions?
