  1. The primary core NAS feature in development right now is cache pooling. The virtualization stuff mentioned here isn't what's all going into the next beta, but rather, just an update on where we stand with that stuff. So UPS support, email support, AFP, etc.. are not making it into the next beta to be released for testing? If that's the case how will we get to test before final at Q3 2014? All in time. We are prepping for a more rapid release schedule. I know its sometimes to see hard why approach things certain ways, but there is good reason for the slow and steady. Know that for things like UPS support and notifications, they will require less development time than thinks like additional file systems and cache pool. Keep in mind that even though we publicly beta test, we internally test a lot as well with respect to core features to make sure that our betas have a solid foundation. And while I appreciate your comments on the other folks I need to thank, cut me a little slack, would yah? I make it no secret that I've only been with LT since April. I don't know all the contributions over the years that have occurred but I surely do appreciate everyone's efforts here, virtualization or not. Ok, I'm sorry to hear that the next release will not contain any of these was hopin to allocate time for a beta containing those. And it sure sound like that was going to be the case from Toms last post. Better to know now. Thanks, I would have take. It much harder once that beta came out and saw that wasn't the case. Slack given. Hope LT cranks these release out back to back. I would like to point out IF something is simple to get in as u state, I (if it where me in this situation) would get them in sooner than later. First make many happy secondly you have confirmation from the community it works in the real world and if anything was missed. I'll bet money it wont be right the first time out. Again not negative, its how things work. E.g. Ups support did work with xyz model. 2) preclear webgui bug under xyz condition 3) seems like you miss an alert based on xyz.

  3. I understand this OP is hear to virtualization thus the thank you's meantioning contributors in that area (my understanding). It wouldnt hurt for a seperate post touching on unRaid contributions and thanking all the people that have contributed so much (non-virtulization based) who have been here a long time and put in a tremendous amount of time. By now mean an exhaustive list: JoeL. WeeboTech/and many other mods work Speeding_ant Few that have departEd but not nameless The bitchers that painfully pushed on Tom Madburg for thinking why only supermicro controllers .... So many more (not being near a PC at home I am leaving out Many many others as well as tremendous amount of testers. But since virtulization is what counts here (this thread), you nailed this properly I'm sure. I do feel there are quite a few that have read and will read this OP and just be speechless for a brief moment, like unRaid didn't exist until v6beta and a few new LT members arrived. Bravo, countless others will feel like dogsh^t on the bottom of a shoe. Not being negative just your posts are insensitive to anything that predates your arrival. Take it for what's is worth and do a bit better in the future.
  4. Question, from the OP it sounds like the next beta to be published will only have virtualization updates, and no core NAS updates until further down the road? Did I read that correct? If that's not the case what should we be looking forward to seeing in this next beta release containing core NAS additions/updates?
  5. Do you have AFP enabled or ever enabled AFP, even once just to test or by accident?
  6. Right so besides coming here from the complaint dept to have my post bilged, I don't believe we received a clear answer on an AFP update. Besides Tom posting commitment and release notes stating its coming, this announcement had no reference to it. So I brought it up as a reminder as we are eagerly waiting to testing the updated AFP with apc and email. I for one feel that next beta will have more testers of v6. So what say we?
  7. The problem is not compile it, is link it with the config we make on the webGUI since the configuration syntax has changed to match to that used by SAMBA. That is the problem Tom has to figure out is to change that, and to address the database location. The package can be found here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18726846/netatalk-3.1.2-x86_64-1_unRAID.txz It has some hacks to adapt the original generated config file to the new syntax. Take a look at the /etc/rc.d/rc.atalk script. I'll make a tutorial for compile this another time. Sorry, don't quite understand what u mean by syntax and samba pertaining to AFP config, but guessing some adjustments maybe required. Why I don't like using anyone's plugins. Tom knows the tweaks that need to be made when compiling for unRAID (under slack). Thus why all this stuff (apc, email) is being request come for LimeTech, or to grumpy's point empower us to do so ourself. Anything I find on the web reference things (commands, paths, etc) that don't work under unRAID/slack. As much as I have learned its still a pea in the pod. While others just type apt-get... Anyway its good u chimed in that u easily compiled yourself And prefer it over 2.x
  8. Easy as in your sleep? Like others have? Well that's not their stance, it will deviate from this new roadmap. Promises, statements, release notes cannot be held as commitments the way it's being communicated. As for the DB that is easy for some then others. I'll explain, since AFP was promoted in unRAID v5 nothing was ever done for noobs to be able to manage it. So I for one (others have similar solutions) have a vmdk dedicated for the DB, auto mounted out side of the array, before AFP starts. What does that do? Survives reboots, closes the DB properly on shutdown/reboots. So again we aren't even asking for DB solution just for it be updated to the latest version. Why did we change from SMBv1? Why change to SMBv2 to 3? How long did that take to compile?
  9. No worries, there are many more issues but for anyone to say including LT that its a guarantee an updated version would resolve ALL issues is not possible by anyone. Nor does a reference point exist or can be used by another system (non unRAID based) that the issues are solely Netatalk based, you have avahi in the mix and some issues can be say MD driver/fuse based spilling over. So until the update is provided no testing can be done under unRAID. That said I know its a dead end without an update to AFP otherwise, I know because I run AFP with maxdebug enabled and can see what is occurring, dont believe is something LT can fix because they don't own/code AFP. The wait has been long enough and overdue on this. I have supported many issues to be resolved even when they were not issues for me. I pulled teeth to get Tom to fix the extended attribute bug with AFP, and provide all the data to do so. I appreciate those who stepped up and chimed in, jonp has to deal with the old issue as well, its not a blank slate. Have to take the good with the bad, produce and things will change across the board. No reason a few steps back can't be taken with three people on board and knock these items out. At the end of the day we'll test them in real usage cases and provide feedback. No one beta was ever perfect. Not updating AFP is a slap in the face, and overdue, period. P.S. as it was pointed out, Tom has learned a lot about AFP and I am certain and comfortable that he could pull off compiling an updated version with little to no change possible required after us testing. If Tom knows or notices something is off he always add that to the release notes for anyone to be on the look out for.
  10. What would you find reasonable? What do you know about AFP, what can I would post that you would find reasonable about AFP? Because after all you don't care for it so its useless. How about while scanning media across the array, netatalk bombs (for a lack of better words) and keeps looping on the same file never ending until afp is stopped and restarted? How about while watching a movie via AFP, exactly timed with spin down you have set, media is cut off and has to be restarted. My friend your post is useless.
  11. Yes you will be told it will hold up UPS and Mail support, because neither technology have ever made it to LT, so they are busy scratching their heads and its going to take a few months for this to be accomplished by Q3 so AFP will sadly not make it in. I want ALL the core feature (UPS and email support included) so this is not at you jumperalex. How many remember how I had to pull teeth, whine, b^tch, etc... to get Hdparm and Smartctrl updated by Tom, anyone?
  12. Changes in 3.0 alpha2 UPD: afpd: Store . as is and / as : on the server, don’t CAP hexencode as "2e" and "2f" respectively UPD: afdp: Automatic name conversion, renaming files and directories containing CAP sequences to their not enscaped forms UPD: afpd: Correct handling of user homes and users without homes UPD: afpd: Perform complete automatic adouble:v2 to adouble:ea conversion as root. Previously only unlinking the adouble:v2 file was done as root UPD: dbd: -C option removes CAP encoding UPD: Add graceful option to RedHat init script UPD: Add --disable-bundled-libevent configure options When set to yes, we rely on a properly installed version on libevent CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS should be set properly to pick that up UPD: Run ldconfig on Linux at the end of make install FIX: afpd: ad cp on appledouble = ea volumes FIX: dbd: ignore ._ appledouble files REM: Volumes options "use dots" and "hex encoding" Changes in 3.0 alpha1 NEW: Central configuration file afp.conf which replaces all previous files NEW: netatalk: service controller starting and restarting afpd and cnid_metad as necessary NEW: afpd: Extended Attributes AppleDouble backend (default) UPD: CNID databases are stored in $localstatedir/netatalk/CNID (default: /var/netatalk/CNID), databases found in AFP volumes are automatically moved UPD: Start scripts and service manifests have been changed to only start the new netatalk service controller process UPD: afpd: UNIX privileges and use dots enabled by default UPD: afpd: Support for arbitrary AFP volumes using variable expansion has been removed UPD: afpd: afp_voluuid.conf and afp_signature.conf location has been changed to $localstatedir/netatalk/ (default: /var/netatalk/) UPD: afpd: default server messages dir changed to $localstatedir/netatalk/msg/ UPD: dbd: new option -C for conversion from AppleDouble v2 to ea REM: AppleTalk support has been removed REM: afpd: SLP and AFP proxy support have been removed REM: afpd: legacy file extension to type/creator mapping has been removed REM: afpd: AppleDouble backends v1, osx and sfm have been removed So when you state "Samba/NFS = more popular, more widely used, and is definitely going to be supported longer. " I say longer, sure they will be supported longer and have more fixes well after AFP is dropped, but the logic that we should be on stuck on 2.2.5 because no one in LT can find the few minutes and keep a promise (especially now that we are supposed to see things change and for the better) or we don't need ALL the fix's that have been publish since netatalk 2.2.5. Thats not how anyone felt about samba nor the kernel update (finally), "come on, its 2014, for gods sake" right so cut the crap and produce a netatalk update. How many people know what exactly was fixed in samba or kernel you changed too? How about all the fixes for NFS? Just hold tight AFP is next.. now this, freakin JOKE! And for your statement "And what happens if we push this out and someone has a problem with it? We have to support it then." Push, push what? its a download for those who which to try out a a BETA, hello! Besides I would be the only one impacted, since no one else is using this dying protocol. And you don't support anything anyway, expect for license keys. I just LOVE how these statement are all bent when its convenient.
  13. Read through that entire thread with respect to AFP. Seems like a low number of people are requesting the upgrade (in fact, you were the only one asking for an upgrade, it appears everyone else was just asking for us to not drop support for it entirely). I think we'll need to see more folks rally behind the cause to bump this up in the priority list of "to dos". I realize Tom may have made a commitment here, but we're looking out for the best interests of our users as a whole. Many users are reporting that Time Machine works fine under the current unRAID implementation. Again, not looking to drop AFP here, just trying to understand why we need a clearly dying protocol to be upgraded right now. EDIT: As for Samba/NFS, I don't think you can make a case to say we should update AFP (a dying and terrible protocol) because we've updated other protocols so much. Samba/NFS = more popular, more widely used, and is definitely going to be supported longer. Apples (no pun intended) and oranges. There is no making cases with LT if ur not a top 10 fan boy. Not sure how you came to the conclusion I am the only one that wants this updated but that's fine I can read between the lines very well. Delay and in a few years AFP will finally be dropped, problem solved. Versus spending all of 25 mins to complie it. Your more than welcome to write it off as I am the only one who wants it. Enjoy playing with your own ball. Popular statement handed out to members here, think it applys to LT here as well. Madburg, Please respond to my previous message about arguing for what benefits such an update would provide and why it is necessary. I can't help you if you don't make a case. UPDATE: FYI, I am moving some of madburgs posts are being moved to the complaint/bilge forum where they belong. The original requests that weren't hostile in nature will remain. Where they belong? We'll check you out, deja Vu, someone recently posted how posts are conveniently deleted, moved, and not censored. Your spending more time doing this then compiling Netatalk. Great use of LT time, the virtualization guys will pay for this, and hate me for it. A polite $sshole is still an $sshole, lets not get things confused, power to censor doesn't make you right. Not so much as arguments have been giving but issues raised, you are welcome to scour the forums and find them as each time something is promised to be looked into or fixed or updated and then lost in a thread and started later again, usually by someone else and this is the game that is played again and again. Im not sure why you think if I don't repeat everything posted throughout the years to YOU personally then theres' nothing to discuss. You just like playing with the ball by your lonely self. What your request is that I spend even more time than I have to put all the issues together for you and put an argument around it. Tell you what, you PM me I will give you my number, and get you access to my unraid server and show you first hand all the AFP issues. Or if you feel the following is argument enough, unRAID 5.0.3 (2013-11-26) netatalk: upgrade to version 2.2.5 (23rd of July 2013) Current netatalk 3.1.2 Changes in 3.1.2 FIX: Option "vol dbpath" was broken in 3.1.1 FIX: Spotlight: file modification date, bug #545 FIX: Improve reliability of afpd child handler FIX: debian initscript: add 0 and 6 to Default-Stop. debian-bug#745520 FIX: put the Solaris share reservation after our locking stuff, bug #560.

  14. U are 100% right no argument. But I have a bad taste in my mouth and until I see things produced as promised it hard to shake off. I know you know the deal.
  15. Really? I must try it ... I've not seen it mentioned in any changes history/readme.txt files. Apologizes if that's not the case, I will take your word that it's not available yet. Traveling to take a look around and only peaked at one of the v6 betas early on.
