Hi, Just woke up... and my unRAID server (stable version, 6.1.9 I guess) seems to be completly down. Can't access the docker containers, no webUI, can't SSH or TELNET, and if I plug a screen and a keyboard I got the console with the login prompt and the "_" blinking but I can do nothing, keyboard is unresponsive. And it's hard to suspect anything, server has not been rebooted for a month, no change, no new docks or plugins etc. So the question is, how do I investigate the issue ? if I powerdown the server and plug the unRAID USB key into another computer, will I be able to access any logs? Any other/better solutions ? thanks

Hi! I'm trying to send the unRAID syslog on a Observium server following this guide https://www.observium.org/docs/syslog/ I need to enable the OMPROG module on rsyslog confirguration, but the module itself is not present, it looks like rsyslog need to be compiled with "--enable-omprog" option. Do you think this would be doable ? And to make sure this solve the issue, is there any way to update/recompile rsyslog directly on my server ? Thanks!

I think that min/max version tested cover every scenario, this is a common pattern in software development. And it also free LM to constrains themselves to something. If they want to add big thing for plugins that break compatibility, the min/max version will avoid any issue. It also fix issue in every way: for people running version N and getting plugins updates about version N+1, and people upgrading to N+1 while having lots of N compatible plugin. In both case, system will now knows, and prompt the user about the risks. I'd love to know what jonp think of the suggestion

Yeah, changlog for Community Applications was somehow explicit, that's the only one I ended updated Since there's lot of community dev in here, what do you think of the mintested/maxtestedversion directly in the plugin file? It would solve most issue, right ?

English is not my native language so I'm guessing that I'm not being clear enough because I've understood what you're saying, and this is not the issue I'm talking about :'( But I've also understood that while running 6.0.1 I could receive plugins updates that will make those plugins to stop working. I'll stop updating them until 6.1 is released then People running 6.0.1 needs to be informed about that imo.

I'm talking about 6.0.1 backward compatibility, not 6.1 compatibility. I understand that those plugins are "use at your own risk" but pushing updates that aren't compatible is an issue, I hope we'll agree on that. That being said, maybe there's no way to fix that automagically, so maybe it's good time to add some sort of mintestedversion/maxtestedversion metadata in the plugin file.

So how exactly those updates are handled by the update manager (in the webUI) ? I'm running 6.0.1 and some plugins I use are getting updates, I have to manually check with every plugin owner whether or not they included 6.0.1 compatibility ? or did the system hide those incompatible updates until I'm running 6.1 ?

Are those changes backward-compatible or the community devs must explicitly deal with both 6.0 and 6.1 when they update their plugins?

Make sure that your VM is automatically connected through the VPN, and when you want to RDP to that VM simply put yourself in the VPN before doing so ? Or maybe with dual LAN in your VM, so you can always access the VM from either network (VPN or local)

Did you try with both plugged in at the same time ? I' not sure wether you can pass through with only one GPU. (At least with an iGP that doesn't work)

Great! I just tried something from the command line, while a VM is running : 1. 2. reboot from VM > ram allocation updated. If "virsh define" is already used when we edit a VM from the webUI then everything may already be implemented?

Hi, If we were able to edit a VM while the VM is running this would allow us to edit a VM from the VM (new settings applied after next reboot), removing the need to use another computer to do the changes. With the USB/GPU pass-through I think this would be pretty convenient. What do you think?

How is the "network bridge" configured for your VM ?

Isn't btrfs supposed to provide some sort of protection against that ? I really need to get more familiar with btrfs tools and features ^^ Anyway I'll check those solutions, thanks! would be nice to have one of those builtin, with a webUI integration

READ ERRORS, Season 1 Episode 5 Parity Check is OK, and no read errors in the process... I really hate when it stop working and then work again without doing anything. Anyway I started an "advance" replacement from WD so I wont take any risk here. So last question, is there any way to "ask" the disk : "tell me which file is located at sector xxxx" ? (Since I have sector's list from syslog)

Parity check started I've always assumed that my RED disks were 5400RPM but you're right, when I look at the other's SMART reports, there's no rotation rate indication. But since they are not running the same firmware version... When I received the refurbished one I noticed (it's written on the big sticker) it was running "NASWARE 3.0" while the others were running "NASWARE 2.0" (Firmware Version 82.00A82 vs 80.00A80). Maybe that's something "new".

I've run the long test and it "Completed without error"... Minor question here, while running the long test I noticed that the disk spun down... so I disabled the "Spin down delay" and restarted the test again, maybe there's a bug to fix here? (prevent the disk from spinning down while running the test? or maybe the test was still running... but the UI was misleading since I got a message saying something like "can't run the test while disk in spun down"...) You are right about my motherboard, 2 6gbs and 4 3gbs. And the hdparm command give me almost same results on all RED disk (~150MB/s on buffered disk reads) That's the bridge name in the network settings, did not bother to change it after the last update so I guess it will stay here for ever I also checked the cable thing (as noticed by Frank1940), everything looks fine to me. The WD Disk with read errors is a refurbished one that I just get few weeks ago, so I'll send it back again no matter what, but how can I know if my data are safe? will the parity disk rebuild the data involved with the read errors when I'll replace the disk ? Any way to list the files affected ? I'm really in the dark here, what would you do ? Thanks for the support!

Sorry about that ! attached both files : syslog.txt smart.txt

Hi, During my last parity check I've been notified about "READ ERRORS" on one of my drive, but I have absolutely no idea what I must do now. Is there any way to know the files involved ? And what exactly does the read error mean, looking at SMART value there's no reallocated sectors, only "Raw Read Error Rate" with a raw value of "25" ? How should I take care of those errors ? replace the disk ? I'm running unRAID 6 RC3 using btrfs on all disks. Here is the syslog with two parity checks : thanks!

Hi, I'm running b15 with plus licence, and the "Check for Updates" script isn't giving me access to rc1/2. I was running unRAID with Xen, so I rebooted the server w/o Xen, but still same issue. Is there any way to check what might possibly go wrong? like maybe my unraid server is unable to reach LimeTech update server or something ? EDIT: Ok solved, weird issue with my home router, using Google DNS in unRaid settings, and now it's working.

I have the issue too. Was also wondering why the page was so long to load, and why all my disk were "up" sometimes Maybe it's related to the used filesystem? I'm running btrfs on both array and cache, and my docker image is in /mnt/cache not in a "cache only" share.

Do you know how to enable the "DLNA Media Server" feature ? looks like you need an app within tonido to do that... but on the app section there's no such thing to install. From official website : edit: oh just find that official message from tonido : > http://www.tonido.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=9871

Hey, Just got my first Reallocated Sector on my oldest disk, a WD Green, (not a storage-friendly disk ). So i was wondering what would be the proper way to move all data from that disk to the others, a simple mv /mnt/diskX/* /mnt/diskY/* would do the trick I guess ? Do you think i can open a feature request to add a real "Empty Disk" option in unRAID that would move all data to other disks (not only one), maybe following any "Allocation method/Split level" settings if there are users shares on that disk ?

I feel dumb now. thanks!

Sorry to bump an old topic (well not that much ) What's the proper/newer way to do that with the latest unRAID 6 beta ? Can't find any "Repository" field in the webui...
