    UnRAID on Asus Pro WS W680-ACE IPMI

    in Motherboards and CPUs

    Posted

    Just setup UNRAID on the W680M variant and a 14700 CPU.

    Unfortunately I'm having issues with getting the iGPU to show up in Intel_GPU_top / GPU stats and also not showing available in Plex for H/W transcoding.

    The iGPU is set to primary display and is the only display present (as well as the ASPEED). Tried with/without dummy plug, same problem.

     

    Has anyone successfuly managed to the iGPU to work properly under 14gen Intel and this Asus motherboard?

    I was recently look into moving my server from a old dell with a 3570, to a up to date intel build.  The original plan was to go with a 13500 and DDR5 motherboard (need UHD 770), but Newegg had a bundle with a 14700k that was cheaper than my original plan.  My question is with the CPU being so new, should there be compatibility problems with Unraid and Plex?

     

    Here's the parts

    32 GB DDR 6000

    I just built a system with the 14700 CPU, unfortunately I am unable to get the iGPU to show up in plex. Did you end up buying the parts and trying it in UNRAID?

    I think the Kernel doesn‘t support your 14700, you have to wait for a new RC/beta version with a higher Kernel than 6.1.x

    Bugger, also noticed that Plex doesnt see the iGPU for transcoding 😞

    I tried the precompiled kernals from the links in that reddit post and it didn't work and nothing changed. I tried both the 6.6.9 and 6.7.0 kernals.

     

    Hopefully when the official release is done whatever work is completed will fix it, but the lack of results with that gave me a l little pause. Hopefully that is all that is needed and nothing else.

    The 6.8rc3 and rc4 kernels enable nested virtualisation, tested and it works.

    Custom Dashboard Tiles

    You do not actually have to write a plugin!    You can just create a folder on the flash drive under config/plugins and put the .page file there.  A plugin is just a convenient way of packaging such files for others, and also allows for loading any software components that might be required to support the tile.

    OK, makes sense. All I want is a tile that enables me to display remote SMART stats from other servers on my network and refresh every 5s

    In terms of layout it should look something like the UPS tile below. Figured that having a blank tile with options to add an icon, title, resizable columns and rows would simplify the whole design process.image.png.5e8071b841f36fa3b5d99c8d08b47b8e.png

    Plugins can already add tiles, so I see no reason you should not be able to do this by using the same technique that they use.

    Yep, I know this, however, you need to develop your own plugin to add a tile which in my mind is more difficult than having an 'add tile' option and being able to edit it.

    One of the features that brings me back to UNRAID is the fantastic dashboard with the multitude of tiles available OOTB and via plugins.

    I would really like to see the option of creating your own custom tile. I have some use-cases where by using a combination of APIs, SMART tools, I could add my own stats from other machines/apps.

    ZFS Raid 0 Performance

    in General Support

    Posted

    Hi

     

    I am experimenting with a RAID 0 ZFS pool and getting odd read/write stats.

    I created a pool with 2 x WD black nvme PCIe 4.0 2tb drives in RAID 0.

    Running dd on the ZFS share gives me around 3GB/s. I am expecting closer to 10GB/s given both drives are in RAID 0 effectively doubling the speed no? The drives are rated at 5GB/s write and I get that on a single drive. Is there some tuning I need to do?

    Is it possible to manually install the nvidia driver if we're using a custom kernel i.e 6.7.3?

    I am experimenting with thors' custom linux kernels but I can't install the nvidia plugin/driver through CA for obvious reasons. If possible, please detail how. Thanks.

    No... this is still an issue, and a very annoying one. both systems are up and running. one is my main plex server with all its content. 90% of its purpose is Plex. it still has the same issues described in the original post. not being able to 100% (or 99%) utilize the iGPU... transcoder information does not show up in the "intel_gpu_top" information. I had to stop focusing on this system to build the other 13900K system. The other is built to handle a lot.. backups, game servers, VMs, (non- transcoding) 4K Plex server, TDARR, and many other things. for the time while TDARR gets caught up with all my TV episodes, I have my last gaming PC CPU (8700K) also crunching some frames. the odd thing is the iGPU in the 8700k is outperforming the 13900K... I would see them both working and while I understand that the files need to be exactly the same to get an accurate comparison... the 8700k is ALWAYS processing more frames. I have both the 13900K and the 8700K processing 4 videos at a time. What is funny... 8700k system shows to be running correctly. when i bring up "intel_gpu_top" on both systems... I get the correct information on the 8700k showing transcode info and iGPU at 100%.... while the 13900K does not show transcode and will never go above 96%.

    Long story short... both my 13900K systems are not running at full potential and I have no idea why. whatever is causing this issue is allowing my 8700k to essentially outperform my 13900k in TDARR. I wish this would get more attention.

     

    I added the snap shot of both ( 13900k on the left, 8700k on the right)

    Did you ever fix this? I am about to splash out on a 14700K but want to make sure that plex etc work properly before I do.

    That's good to know and saved me alot of time testing against my x570 3950x unraid host. Looks like Intel is the safest way for the moment but I hit a snag on my z490d4u 11900k build. I can passthrough my tesla p4 gpu to a nested vm in esxi 8 but vgpu psods the esxi host. No matter what I try, the same result. Seems vgpu passthrough is not working but direct gpu passthrough does.

    It looks like getting Kernel 6.5 or greater is actually is being discussed on reddit here. The first response links to a walkthrough that discusses how to apply the kernel change with a link to compiled kernels. Looks like the last release is actually on kernel 6.7. Think I will try the 6.6.9 kernel version and see how it goes.

     

    It would be nice if we could get a moderator or someone to look at this and see about getting this into the regular build before to long if this works. 

    I managed to get nested esxi 8 working on my Intel 11th gen with 6.12.6. Waiting for UNRAID 6.13 with newer kernel before trying on my X570 board.

    One major issue I have with the Intel is that when I passthrough my Telsa P4 to ESXI and power on a VM, the ESXi host PSODs. 

    I am using the following qemu arg in my ESXi template.

     

      <qemu:commandline>
        <qemu:arg value='-machine'/>
        <qemu:arg value='kernel-irqchip=split'/>
        <qemu:arg value='-device'/>
        <qemu:arg value='intel-iommu,intremap=on,caching-mode=on'/>
      </qemu:commandline>

     

    If I dont use this, ESXi does not detect vt-d IOMMU correctly and none of the passed through devices are selectable.

    I need more information than what you've given.  What does it mean that you can't access some of your shares?  Show a screen shot.

    Only UD shares I cant access. UNRAID array shares are OK. All I did was update the plugin. I cannot access UD shares remotely (from a windows or linux pc). I try and click a folder and nothing happens like it's a permissions issue.
