On it.. copying as we speak..

well easier then it looked.. New Cache pool, 2 disks.. and off we are going.. Will try and sort out moving stuff around now

Thanks.. Preclear is done already.. Whoops! Sounds like a decent setup... Is there a guide to setting up a cache pool that is updated to the newer versions on unraid? Working through a Spaceinvader video from a year or so ago on Cache pools.

To add.. I just got both SSD's added to the server. So they are showing as unassigned with a Format beside them.. I will fire them through a preclear now.

Hey folks.. Running unRAID 6.11 I have a single 500gb SSD as my cache. It hosts a single windows vm I use for blue iris that is about 250gb, appdata and a cache for shares. Shares are not super active. I found some affordable 1tb ssd's (two) that I bought and want to use them for the cache Thoughts on the best way to do this? put them in a pool and continue to use the cache the same way Or Two separate cache disks, keep one for vm's and one for cache? What format would you recommend? And can you point me to some instructions on how to achieve this? Thanks guys. I have done a bunch of reading but struggling to figure it out. Cheers Mike

sorry for the slow reply.. I have just been hitting the permission's option on the destination folder, not the download folder. This resets the permissions in the destination to read/write.. I have not hit the ownership option.

Was having the same issues.. Saying that I have a fresh install or the 'arr' apps on unraid 6.11 (that has been upgraded many time over the last 7 years). Anyways I found your post on a google search and read the reddit that was linked to... I have not touched permissions at all trying to get things running. I fixed it tonight. I have Dynamix File Manager installed. I used it an went to the root of my download folder and media folder (both within 1 share) and reset the permissions using DFM. Next import worked just fine!! Again not the exact issue but maybe it will help?

PlexGuide is doing something similiar and they have automated the creation of the service accounts. You specify how many and it creates them for you. It spits out a list of accounts and you add them to your gsuite account. There must be a way to create the accounts without creating a full Gmail account. I will try and have a look to understand how it works. Not that I am all that smart

I remember why I loved the UnRaid forums so much now. You guys rock... Thanks for the info. I will do some more reading on this.. Thanks Spladge. This looks like exactly what I would like to do. More learning though! Cheers folks.. As of right now plex is scanning in the libraries. Once it is done I will test some reboots to make sure everything is running correctly. Then move onto getting plex to see new stuff at a decent pace. Much thanks! Mike

Much thanks! Tooks some tweaking and playing but things seem to be working. It will be a work in progress I am sure! Another question... Tweaking the rclone parameters.... As I am doing my downloading on another server how do you suggest changing the rclone command to better see the new media as it is downloaded. Is there a way to kick start the process to manually refresh the content? Specifically --dir-cache-time 720h How low can I go with this safely? Or is there a better option to get rclone to see new files on the remote side? Thanks!!

Hey folks.. I have been running UnRaid for a number of years. Awhile back I heard about plexguide and I have been using it with cloud servers to populate a gsuite account. I plan on still using plexguide as a feeder for gsuite drive but I would like to move the plex server back to my UnRaid server as I now have decent bandwidth at home and can support my families requirements. Where I am running into problems is that I did not use encryption when I setup my drives and I store everything in a tdrive share. Any directions or posts on installing without encryption? I have rclone up and configed. I did not setup the 2 VFS portions of rclone config. using the mount script from DZMM it does run with some errors but the mounts are there and I am able to point plex at the shares. I am now trying to work through the upload script and cleanup script but running into more errors. Any direction or advise is appreciated! Thanks!

ANyone able to comment... Is this still working? Any other recommended methods for attacking rclone on Unraid? New to this and just trying to learn my way around. THanks,

Awesome reply.. Thanks Grid for taking the time. I did open another thread in general support (got chastised for it as well ). Anyways I did delete the orphan and added Plex again. Took me sometime to get my shares right but all is good now. I went back to customizing the CPU's again. I need to read better I guess.. I did get it working in the end though after I realized you have to add the flags to the extra parameters.. All good now and I think my plex is working better. I was having some problems with a high use VM and plex intermingling and causing plex to bog down during live transcoding. Well I think thats what was going on. I will need to run it for a few days to see if its actually fixed. Again thanks folks!

Might be worth a new post but I am lost.. I updated my plex container with --cpuset=0,2,4,6 Missed that it should have been --cpuset-cpus So I clicked apply. It did its thing and the docker restarted. Then it was gone. It no longer appears in my list of Dockers. Just gone! Any thoughts? How do I go about finding the config file? Sorry guys.. I really don't know what I am doing. I pretend well though! I needs my plex! edit: I clicked advanced view and saw: (orphan image) Image ID: 9b60aa70ec67 linuxserver/plex:latest

Getting the same thing.. Joe. L's works fine as suggested. Not all the options your building in though. Any idea? Looks like it running ok in the status on the pluggin, just the popup windows does not display the working stats.
