  1. I'd love to see an option to pass a share through to a Windows guest VM when creating virtual machines. This can currently only be done for linux guests, but not windows.

     

    Of course you could just access the share over the network when within Windows, but this poses a few problems. One that comes to mind in my case is I install Steam games to an unraid share, and have a windows VM autoboot into big picture mode so I can play those games. I have mapped the share to a drive and told it to connect at startup automatically. Windows, being windows, sometimes attempts to map the share before a network connection is available, which means Steam no longer has access to the game library.

     

    To fix this, I'd have to access the share manually (which is hard with only a controller attached) or set up some script to continuously check or delay the mapping of shares at boot (which is tedious and feels quite hacky). Would be great is unraid had the ability to just pass the share through, or some other mechanism to ensure share mapping occurs after a network connection is detected.

  2. I just installed openvpn access server, and I must be going blind because I can't find a place to change the default admin password. Is there a setting in the menus I missed? Or is there a way to change it via ssh?

  3. Wasn't sure where to post this as the problem spans a number of applications

     

    I have apache reverse proxy set up with most of my applications. I'm trying to set one up for the deluge webui. I'm using delugevpn so everything is hidden behind a vpn

     

    This is what I have in my apache conf:

     

            <Location /deluge>

                    ProxyPass http://192.168.187.10:8112

                    ProxyPassReverse http://192.168.187.10:8112

            </Location>

     

    When I navigate to domain.com/deluge I just see a blank page

     

    However, I have also tried port forwarding and that works fine. So if I go to publicip:8112 then everything works no problem

     

    Is there something I'm missing in my apache conf thats preventing reverse proxy from working?

  4. isn't ECC ram highly highly highly recommended when using ZFS? I'd like to see ZFS as an option, but not as the one and only file system for unraid (not that thats what you're suggesting, just voicing my concern)

  5. I was under the impression that unraid that can run headless and that it doesn't need integrated/discrete graphics in order to run. I have a xeon e3 with no iGPU, but I have a gtx960 as well. I've been trying to pass the 960 through to a windows VM but I keep seeing a blackscreen

     

    Could this be related to the fact that the 960 is the only graphics device in my system? Or has anyone successfully passed through a gpu to windows VM when its the only device?

  6. I had unraid with docker running fine before my server upgrades. One of the upgrades was replacing the cache drive with a larger one. I followed the instructions here: https://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Replace_A_Cache_Drive

     

    After copying docker.img back to the cache drive and restarting the array everything appears to show up OK. The dockers appear to be working.

     

    When I go into the docker settings and scrub, however, I get 2 uncorrectable errors:

     

    scrub status for 73b6b03e-f0d6-498a-ae48-cbea42522c54
    scrub started at Sat Dec  5 19:52:31 2015 and finished after 00:00:11
    total bytes scrubbed: 5.66GiB with 2 errors
    error details: csum=2
    corrected errors: 0, uncorrectable errors: 2, unverified errors: 0

     

    I check the log and I see this:

    And whenever I open up the webgui of a docker this warning just keeps repeating in the log:

    Is there a way to fix this? I didn't get any errors prior to moving the image to a larger cache drive

     

    I'm not sure if this is related, but as part of the upgrades I removed the parity drive and had to turn it into another data drive (temporarily until I get a larger parity drive). To do this, I went into Tools > New Config, added all my old data drives to the array without a parity

  7. I see that there are dockers for OpenVPN AS, and also a separate plugin for running an OpenVPN server.

     

    What are the major differences between the 2? I'm looking for the one that will be easiest to set up and give me the least amount of headache.

  8. Im currently planning on a few server upgrades:

     

    1. Replacing the cpu

    2. Switching my cache drive for a larger SSD

    3. Moving to a larger case

     

    What special considerations should be given when making these changes? I want to minimize the chance of losing data or creating more problems as a result of changing hardware

  9. exactly what permissions are being set on the folders that CP is creating?

     

    Here is what the directory permissions look like:

     

    permissions.png

     

    The problem directory has nobody as owner, the one that works has simon set as owner

     

    I'm not really understanding how permissions work in linux...

     

    Unraid sets nobody as owner for all shares (confirmed). So, I have a Media share that is owned by nobody. On my main desktop (logged in as simon) I copied all my media files to that Media share. Even though the Media share is owned by nobody, all subdirectories are now owned by simon. The same thing happens for any other subdirectory - they're all owned by whoever copied the file to the share - is this normal? expected? What if one user wants to edit files moved there (and owned) by another user?

  10. So all of my user shares are set to nobody as owner and when I log in to the share on Windows with my account (simon) I can edit files no problem. How come when CP sets a directory to nobody, I can no longer edit the files/folder? This is despite the simon account having read/write permission to the share...

  11. the problem im facing is that I cant copy to/from or edit any directories created by couchpotatos renamer and im guessing its because of this ownership issue

     

    the share that CP is moving files to is read/writeable by myself (as set in unraid), but despite that I dont have the ability to edit the files. I can edit non-CP directories OK

  12. I have couchpotato to pull in files from a different directory, and it seems that everytime it does the renaming it sets the owner of the directory to 'nobody'. This means that any user on my unraid system does not have write permissions to that folder

     

    sonarr used to have the same problem, but that has an option in settings for assigning ownership to a user. I couldn't find a similar option for couchpotato

     

    What is the best way to handle this situation? Is there a setting in CP that I missed somewhere?

     

    On an unrelated note, I just checked /mnt/user and all of my shares have 'nobody' set as the owner too...is that normal?

  13. My home network consists of a server holding all my media files, a mysql database on the server to hold kodi info, and kodi clients (windows, raspberry pi) that play the actual media. everything has worked nicely so far

     

    Can anyone explain what a headless kodi server is, and how it might improve my current network setup?

     

    From what I understand it does library updates in the background so my clients dont need to be online, which I'm assuming will update my mysql database in the process. But once clients boot up, don't they still need to poll the database and refresh their own library?
