Hi, When review my logs this evening I noticed something odd in smartctl. It was reporting my drives as being 6 GB/s capable but only running at 3 GB/s. When checking on the specs of my motherboard I found out that I had plugged my drives into the wrong (slower) ports on my motherboard. What I am wondering is, can I just move these drives over to the proper ports and everything will just work, or do I need to plan on rebuilding my array if I decide to do this? Could I potentially just move the cache drive for now without screwing anything up even? Current motherboard is a TYAN S5512 with 8 x 6GB/s ports on a LSI SAS2008 and 2 6Gb/s with 4x 3Gb/s ports on a Intel C204. My plan being to move either all drives to the LSI controller, or some to the 6GB/s ports on the Intel and the rest to the LSI. Currently I have 4 disks in this system (1 x parity, 1 x cache, 2 x data) Thanks

Hey Guys, I've got a couple of Linux VM's running currently on Unraid 6.1, and the issue is that when I issue a shutdown -r now or a shutdown -h now command either from an ssh session or from VNC, the output on the screen shows that the VM is going down, however it never actually does. I end up having to do either a reboot or a force shutdown on the VM itself from within the Unraid webgui. I'm not sure why this is happening. Suggestions for how to resolve this issue? Or is this something that I should bother to worry about?

for the ssmtp error, Looks like the smtp server requires more then mine did. Try adding a From: as it normally defaults to the root user. #!/bin/bash ls -l > logfile cat - logfile <<-EOF | ssmtp -v [email protected] From: [email protected] Subject: logfile for `date` EOF root@unRAIDb:/tmp# ./example_ssmtp.sh [<-] 220 hostingservice.empoweringmedia.net ESMTP Exim 4.84 Sat, 05 Sep 2015 09:47:43 -0400 [->] EHLO unRAIDb [<-] 250 HELP [->] STARTTLS [<-] 220 TLS go ahead [->] EHLO unRAIDb [<-] 250 HELP [->] AUTH LOGIN [<-] 334 ********* [->] *************************** [<-] 334 ********** [<-] 235 Authentication succeeded [->] MAIL FROM:<[email protected]> [<-] 250 OK [->] RCPT TO:<[email protected]> [<-] 250 Accepted [->] DATA [<-] 354 Enter message, ending with "." on a line by itself [->] Received: by unRAIDb (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Sat, 05 Sep 2015 09:47:42 -0400 [->] Date: Sat, 05 Sep 2015 09:47:42 -0400 [->] From: [email protected] [->] Subject: logfile for Sat Sep 5 09:47:42 EDT 2015 [->] total 4 [->] -rwxrw-rw- 1 root root 139 Sep 5 09:47 example_ssmtp.sh [->] -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Sep 5 09:47 logfile [->] drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 Sep 4 14:16 notifications [->] drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 280 Sep 4 23:56 plugins [->] drwx------ 2 root root 60 Sep 4 23:47 ssh-3GhthFJM2r [->] drwx------ 2 root root 60 Sep 4 23:30 ssh-mYwUqW0iyo [->] [->] .

This sounds like exactly what I am looking for! Did this project ever get off the ground or is it dead now?

Got another question, Trying to change the theme tonight, but noticing that this does not seem to work. Doing some reading, and it seems that this VM template was created as read only. Is there a way to make it writeable so that I can change the default theme? Thanks

That seems to have enabled the reboot option. Now I just need to see about the issue with Openelec seeming to freeze at times. Thanks!

I've update my script and it now seems to be working, but I'm getting the error message ssmtp: 550 5.7.60 SMTP; Client does not have permissions to send as this sender I'm not sure how to fix this error. The sending e-mail address in my smtp settings (notifications) is the same e-mail address I have set up in this script.

its a USB infrared receiver that I've been using with kodi for the last 2 years, I've never had an issue with it before this.

What kind of GPU are you assigning? Can you upload your diagnostics? Tools -> Diagnostics I am using an NVidia GT 730. tower-diagnostics-20150904-2149.zip

Hello, I'm finding 2 problems with the current Openelec VM template. The first being that the reboot option in its GUI does not appear to work, and I'm at a loss as to how to fix it. The second issue i'm finding is that after the VM has been left idling for a few hours it seems to lock up and needs to be rebooted. Ram usage through these times is around 70% and CPU utilization is normally in the range of 5%-10%. Suggestions?

Hello, I am trying to get rsync to copy files to an external hard drive, log everything to a file, and then e-mail me that file after the operation has complete. So far rsync copy and writing to log file work fine, but I can not get the script to e-mail me the log file. I have set up the SMTP settings in unraid 6.1 notifications, and the test function does send an e-mail properly. Below is the script I am running/ working on. #!/bin/bash #File and directory backup script # Andrew Robinson 2015 #Each line is set up to run rsync on a specific directory and back up to external HDD. #after sync completed, log file with results is writen #then e-mailed off to me echo "Backing up data directories to removeable hard drive" rsync -avh --delete /mnt/user/ /mnt/disks/ST4000DM000_1F2168_Z300HVNP/ --log-file=/var/log/backup_rsync.log echo "Backup complete" cat /var/log/backup_rsync.log | mail -s "backup_rsync.log" [email protected] Thanks

Got it fixed. Issue turned out to be the selection of the audio output device inside of openelec.

HI, I have a Nvidia GT 730 graphics card that I am using to pass through video and sound. Video is working without an issue. Sound was working until the unraid webgui crashed and forced me to reboot. Now I can not get sound running again. I've got the GT 730 being passed through, and the sound card comes up as a Nvidia GK208 HDMI/DP audio controller which I've also got passed through. My usb infrared red receiver is passed through as well and working without issue. I did find a post earlier, but now can not find it again about creating a sound.conf file .config/modprobe.d with the following line options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 but this does not seem to be working either now on reboot. Any ideas?

There seems to be a bug in this docker. I can not for the life of my get the configuration.yaml file to be read. I have restarted the docker numerous times with no success. All I get in the log file is 15-08-27 21:38:27 homeassistant.components.recorder: Found unfinished sessions Any suggestions?
