That's is an easy one. There are "?" in the file name. Your question should be "Why are there "?" in the file name?" Device model: WDC WD10EADS-00L5B1 Serial number: WD-WCAU48551976 Looks like the plugin is attempting to underline the dashes in the serial number and text ?

Can you tell me what this error message means? Running v6.1.9 and preclear ran to completion ??> RESULT: Preclear finished succesfully. /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/preclear.disk/script/preclear_disk.sh: line 1401: /boot/preclear_reports/preclear_report_WD?WCAU48551976_2016.08.3 1?02:47:53.txt: Invalid argument root@Tower:/usr/local/emhttp#

Any idea why one merchandiser would have higher failure rates than another with the same hard drive manufacturer ?

Recently ran the Fix Common Problems plugin and the following were noted as problems. The LogitechMediaServer docker runs perfectly as installed so are these all false positives ? Docker Application LogitechMediaServer is currently set up to run in host mode The template for this application specifies that the application should run in bridge mode. Docker Application LogitechMediaServer, Container Port 3483 not found or changed on installed application When changing ports on a docker container, you should only ever modify the HOST port, as the application in question will expect the container port to remain the same as what the template author dictated.

Ideally, they should be set to a disk share. Either /mnt/cache/... or /mnt/diskX/...

Does that mean you can stop the array during a preclear . Add additional hard drives and restart the array and the preclear will resume ? This does NOT Mean you can reboot the system ?

gfjardim Thank you for the update You can disregard the previous request for help as the latest update fixed the error message. Do I still need the added line .... mount -o remount,size=256m /var/log......in the Go file ?

As the PreClear Beta continues on my 3 HHDs. 2- 8tb and 1- 4tb I received the following error message again when I checked the status. The HDDs are currently in Cycle 2, Step 2, Zeroing. Several days of preclearing so I hate to interrupt or cancel at this point Warning: file_put_contents(): Only 0 of 197 bytes written, possibly out of free disk space in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/preclear.disk.beta/Preclear.php on line 50 Warning: file_put_contents(): Only 0 of 196 bytes written, possibly out of free disk space in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/preclear.disk.beta/Preclear.php on line 50 Warning: file_put_contents(): Only 0 of 196 bytes written, possibly out of free disk space in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/preclear.disk.beta/Preclear.php on line 50 Device Identification Temp Size Preclear Status Please wait... retrieving information I have already entered the code you suggested previously including adding it to the go file. mount -o remount,size=256m /var/log Add that to your /boot/config/go file to make it persistent

Thank you for the prompt assistance I entered the line of code and it corrected the log error I also added it to the Config/Go file as you suggested. I have several more 8tb drives to clear. Is there a place where one can read all the logging at the finish of the PreClear ? Also you may want to know about this end of file error that gets displayed when the script gets to the end of the disk.

Additional to above post if I open the older Preclear plugin (Non Beta version ) it displays correctly

I have been Preclearing 3 HHD withe the PreClear Beta for 2 days now. It is in the PreRead phase of cycle 2 for 2 8tb hard drives and iI think n the PreRead phase for a 4tb drive running. When I attempted to open the plugin to watch the progress I received this error and the plugin refuses to open though the preclear appears to continue to run Any idea what I should do ?

The beta version has a new script written by gfjardim. It is a beta version, so don't expect all the same functionality as the other preclear plugin yet. Thanks for the prompt response. I understand he new script will be lacking until gfjardim has an opportunity to fine tune all the necessary functionality. That doesn't explain my main question which may be a bug. I ran the Beta Preclear plugin and it ran without having the preclear_disk.sh script in the config/plugins/preclear.disk/ directory

I recently added the Preclear Plugin Beta and did not read further on the first page where it said to add the script preclear_disk.sh. The original Preclear Plugin was already installed and the script was in that plugin folder. I ran the Beta Preclear plugin and it ran without having the script in the config/plugins/preclear.disk/ directory. Is there a reason it ran OK ? When the Preclear is finished is there way to recall the html log that shows the finished completion ?

No need to ditch Chrome. Whenever you run Preclear open the GUI with a different browser. You can also try multiple clicks on the button

Two things to try if the GUI is not responding Turn off add blockers as they block the popup screen Us a different browser. Google Chrome is sometimes unresponsive

Not absolutely sure but your screenshot of the system shows it is stopped. Have you tried rebooting and starting the system

We are not going to maintain our docs in both wiki and PDF form at this time. Franks efforts here are much appreciated, but PDF versions of our docs will need to be community maintained for now. I wasn't suggested you maintain the PDF => only that you host it. I don't see the point. Whether it's hosted by us or not really doesn't matter. Just the convenience of having a direct download on the site ... I agree it doesn't really matter [the same thing could be accomplished by simply having a link to the Dropbox account where it's hosted now]. A casual user who isn't active in the forum wouldn't even know the PDF existed if he/she clicked on "Support - Documentation" on the LimeTech web page. Yet if we host it on the website, it implies its officially supported. There will be an expectation that it will be maintained and when we update the wiki, users who stumble across the outdated PDF will probably be even more confused. Most users will probably be just fine using the wiki as opposed to a PDF. I get some folks like a printed manual, but that is definitely not the way of the world for software products like ours that change so frequently with new releases. I just checked and the Wiki has the manual for v4.7 http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_Wiki

Frank1940 has made a PDF file of the LimeTech v6 Manual He has generated a PDF file of the jonp documentation by copying it into MS Word and formatting it to look like a printed manual complete with a Table of Contents. However it is larger than the 192KB limit (even after he zipped it) so he couldn't upload it to the forum as an attachment. Here is a link to Frank1940's PDF file that he has made available to Unraid users.. It is downloadable and if you care to all 69 pages are printable as a PDF file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55205296/UnRAID%20Manual%206.pdf https://www.dropbox.com/s/w5irgjx7yhtuywh/UnRAID%20Manual%206.pdf?dl=0

I am wondering if one of you might know (or have) a website which is free which could host the file (or be willing to host it on your site)? The zipped file is about 1.4MB in size. In the mean time, if you would like a copy of it, PM me with your e-mail address and I will send it to you.

If you installed the plugin you should be running the PreClear from the Plugin or Settings page in the UnRaid GUI not from the command line.

You do find the size of the disk in Unraid is now the entire disk. In other words a 3tb disk is 3tb etc

I had the same experience. Hard drive probably has a small hidden partition as the first partition for recovery or a drive larger than 2tb may have a protected EFI partition Mount the drive on a Windows machine. My computer right click >Manage>>disk storage >Disk management. You should be able to see the hidden partion then follow the instructions in the link. http://www.howtogeek.com/215349/how-to-remove-an-efi-system-partition-or-gpt-protective-partition-from-a-drive-in-windows

I continue to experience this failure to open and shutdown problem sometimes it opens after 20 plus clicks and sometimes it refuses to open. All my other plugins and buttons work after one click on my system. Can someone please describe how to correct what is happening. The disk to PreClear is unassigned and should be already spun up I did some testing again with this bug and here is what I found. The bug occurs consistently with Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari. The bug does NOT occur and the plugin starts every time with Internet Explorer. Hopefully the plugin author can figure out the reason.

Is there a fix for this small problem I am using Chrome as my browser I have a difficult time getting the Plugin to run after it starts It takes 10 or 20 or more clicks of the Start button to start the plugin and just as many to the X button to stop the plugin.
