  1. Diagnostics attached unraid-box-diagnostics-20190125-0621.zip
  2. Does pci-e nvme use marvel controllers? Having a similar situation with my WD black nvme. Kept dropping offline, updated my bios and magically it's back after 2 days. Quick snagged my vdisk.img off it in case it went belly up again. Only started occuring after the 6.7 upgrade.
  3. Had an oddity with my NVME which is used for VM OS disk going "missing" after I shut down my VM. Disk was not seen by the system and was listed as "missing". Might've been a fluke but will post diags if it happens again. Was fixed with reboot of NAS.
  4. If you can get in through ssh all you do is type "diagnostics" and it will pull a copy even if the WebUI isn't working. Second have you manually tried the upgrade using the BZ* files copied manually to the flash drive? (Making a backup of your flash of course before you do it so you can revert) This will require you to shutdown the server, remove the flash drive and load up the bz files from another device.
  5. If you have the hardware laying around you could, assuming you have a disk in the 8350, get a trial license of unraid. Install it on a jump box and copy the xml file UUID and rebuild the VM xml file and VM over. Make sure to get the uuid line over, that's what identifies your device license. Test it out, see if it meets your needs. I know the framerate problems were identified as an AMD KVM bug about a year ago. So the limitation might be gone. I used to only get 25-30 fps in games for example with my 8350. But I moved away from it and retired the hardware before that was fixed. Worst case you are out some time, but it should answer the question for you.
  6. Should just bridge the network adapter and put the VM in the same subnet as your unraid. It will then use it's own internal vswitch to accomplish that.
  7. If you have satellite DECA is an option as well. It’s Directv’s version of MOCA as satellite runs in a different frequency range.
  8. If you have a 1x slot you could pick up a 1x Nvidia 710 and use that for unraid.
  9. Curious how this turns out I was looking at that graphics card.
  10. Here’s my AIO rig. 34TB Array, 2 480GB cache and a 512 NVME running my vm Win 10 in unassigned devices doing IOMMU passthrough. I know, I have to reroute the USB front header cable or move to the last 1x PCI-E. SpaceInvaderOne inspired me with the videos. This is in a cooler master mastercase maker 5. Still have space for 2 more under the shroud by PSU.
  11. I had something similar with my VM after the upgrade. Unassigned devices passed through other than VNC. Started vm, stopped vm, reassigned and everything started working again. Worth a shot.
  12. webgui: CPU pinning: hanlde dots in VM names Typo... Yes I’m that guy 😜
  13. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ram-overclocking-guide,4693.html Memory starts at the lowest most common settings for boards. You don’t get the rate out of the box, you have to set it. I can buy a GPU with an overclock too. Base frequency is what I’m referring to. Been an overclocker for years since my Athlon days. Yes its in spec but your point is moot. It registers at a set frequency when you install it. That’s the base setting. Anything above that even within spec is a overclock of sorts.
  14. 2666 and 2933 are overclocks. You have to use XMR or memory timing adjustments to get it. My RAM is rated at 3200 but run it at 2933. We can agree to disagree on the CPU as I don’t adjust voltage from stock and I run water cooling so my at load temps are 60 degrees C. Is it harder on the chip? Yes, do I really care? No as I can drop in another easy enough. It’s not like I paid $300-$400 for the chip. If I get half the life I’m still ahead.
  15. Depends on what you use it for. Been overclocking with Unraid for years. Tell me you don't overclock your ram to get timings reported on the sticks... Difference in Watts pull and overclockability of AMD within margins and tight CPU OC makes it a completely safe bet in my case. I run 2 gaming VMs off this with CPU pinning and GPU and USB PCI passthrough.
  16. Updated beautifully, no issues with tweaks in VMs. In fact did a passthrough IOMMU with multifunction flag with no issues. Ryzen 2700 OC 4.1Ghz with 16GB of DDR4 3000. Multiple dockers and VMs.
  17. No, this is due to services going offline. However not certain about starting array in maintenance mode. So I may stand corrected.
  18. Nah more for understanding that it’s 2.0. So current gpus are nearing the throughput, next gen may exceed. You can also run a gpu off a 1x slot but you’d not want to game on it. GPUs are backwards compatible. An 8x PCI-E 3.0 slot = 16x PCI-E 2.0 approximately. ?
  19. Agreed on the define S lots of expandability. Biggest thing people tend to forget, UPS. Don’t cheap out it’ll save you in the long run. Figure that build at least a 1000VA setup. Little worried you are skimping on using a B450 rather than a X470. Extra slots and can use for various other projects and a good 9211-8i or something. Just my 2 cents. Price difference isn’t a ton and could be worth it down the line.
  20. Be aware that the b350 board doesn’t have extra slots. So with this in mind if you have issues with Gpu passthrough for a single card you can’t pop in another card as the unraid OS one. Also why are you going with the 2600X vs 2600? Lower tdp and overclockable. So if you go with an arc form factor to meet the video card needs of a second card you’ll have to change your case too.
  21. If you want bang for your buck have you considered Ryzen 5 2600? Matches with a x470 or and updated bios x370 if you want hardware passthrough VMs with full GPU support. I’ve built 2 for friends and have a 2700 myself. The tweaks for Ryzen are pretty much down to one option called zen-states. Costs about the same as the 8600K with 12 threads instead of 6. Not as fast ghz wise but that’s the trade off.
