  1. Yeah that's what I'll go hunt down on the internet after work. Just hoping the industry was a step a head of me and I'm ignoramus. Instead I'm just an ignoramus. Again, thanks for your time. Found this nice write-up from 2010 hard to search the forums for answers when you don't know the key words to query.
  2. Thank you Sir. Do you know if there is a term, code, index, or other identifying mark for this? Otherwise I guess it's write down all data and go looking for "model numbers" to check my details. At work and can't check now, but your answer sounds good to me. To put into an analogy, it sounds similar to a straight and a cross-over cable in CAT5/6 cables; both in function and physical wiring.
  3. Question to all the folks who may know this. I pulled a random Mini-SAS to 4-SATA port connector cable, like the one listed here. from a drawer at work to use at home but none of my sata drives are recognized on the cable. The drives are known good, the ports on the enclosure are known good, the ports used on SAS HBA tested good. Looking like a bad cable. My question is, are there mini-sas to 4-port sata cables which will only work on SAS drives? My Google-Fu, points to no, but checking to be sure. Are these thin-blue cables as cheap as they look, and have a tendency of being bad or breaking? Did I just get "lucky," a bad cable, and should go buy a lotto ticket? Thanks for your time and responses.
  4. Looks fine to me, looks like you've been allocated two units, but you're correct, you haven't gotten any data yet. As far as I'm aware, this is nominal behavior, but just in case Storj community has an active chat channel, Storj Community jump page. You could post screenshot of the status, and ask the question, if there is something wrong they'll know for sure. If there is something that needs to be tweaked on the template, certainly can do that.
  5. Good call. I had seen requests in forums, and was just trying to fulfill, I may have I opened a large can of worms. I've actually run into the issue you mention, GMAIL flags everything I've sent as SPAM. The bigger issue has been receiving email. Emailing from outside to Poste has resulted in no delivery/stuck in mailserver queue (not bounced). It's been over 15 years from the last time I've worked on a mail server, DNS, and delivery systems.
  6. Application Name: Poste.io <==> "SMTP + IMAP + POP3 + Antispam + Antivirus + Web administration + Web email ... on your server in ~5 minutes." Application Site: https://poste.io/ Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/analogic/poste.io/ Template-Repository: https://github.com/Jcloud67/Docker-Templates INITIAL SETUP: 0. Requires registered FQDN to send/receive external email. 1. Following ports are used by container for mail: 25, 110, 143, 443, 465, 587, 993, 995 2. Following ports are used by container for webui: 443, 8280 (These may conflict, check your ports) 3. Make a user share for mail data, default is /mnt/user/poste 4. Some or all mail ports may need to be opened, forwarded, or dmz for mail send/receive to work. Optional arguments -e "HTTPS=OFF" To disable all redirects to encrypted HTTP, its useful when you are using some kind of reverse proxy (place this argument before image name!) NOTE: Marked as BETA, simply because author is not an expert in email exchange servers -- software itself looks pretty good.
  7. Interesting, I'm also running on a user share myself (no cache drive) and it is working, allocated 3TB in Storj, two disks for unRAID user share. So far Storj has only given me 6GB of data. I wonder what the differences are? You're welcome to post the your unRAID diags from the tools menu. Perhaps that might shed some light on differences between yours and mine. I made the user share via unraid web interface first, then start the Docker, that way unRAID had what permissions it wants for the folder -- because it made it.
  8. I'll see what can be done. Full disclosure, I just made the template and the instructions are sum of things I found so far, to get it working with the Docker container I found. For future, you can make any changes without Docker remaking the whole thing by clicking on, "save" button instead of, "apply." (ver 6.4.1) and it will keep your current image/configs. The container will have to be restarted for the change to take effect.
  9. Application Name: Cacti -- a complete network graphing solution designed to harness the power of RRDTool's data storage and graphing functionality. Application Site: https://www.cacti.net Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/quantumobject/docker-cacti/ Template-Repository: https://github.com/Jcloud67/Docker-Templates SETUP AND CONFIGURATION: --------------------------------------------- 0. SNMP poller default port is 161UDP. 1. If you have an SNMP poller plug-in already installed on your unRAID host, you'll find it will conflict with this Docker. Either uninstall the SNMP plugin you are using, or make the changes to have both work (author assumes you know what you're doing). 2. Has a webui, default set at 8180, adapt as needed to work on your host. 3. During initial setup the path to SPINE is incorrect. Change it to: /usr/local/spine/bin/spine 4. First login -- userid: admin password: admin FIRST RUN (Recommendation): --------------------------------------------- On left hand menu, Under "Automation" click on, "Networks" THEN "Test Network" on right-side main frame. In Subnet Range change this to fit your network. Click "Save" THEN "Return" at the bottom. Next click on the checkbox for "Test Network" THEN in "Choose an action" box click ENABLE --> GO Check the checkbox for "test Network" again THEN choose "Discover now"
  10. I think Micaiah12 beat me to the answer. How big is your storj unRAID user share does it have 12TB of free space? If you do have 12TB of free space, but it's chopped up between all your disks try the largest value of a given disk chunk. Perhaps it's an error trying to allocate over the disks (possible but I doubt it). I've been running the program for myself, only for the last week or so.
  11. Application Name: QDirStat -- Graphical view of directories, find files taking up the most space. Real MovieOS stuff! Application Site: https://github.com/shundhammer/qdirstat Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/mjdumont1/qdirstat Template-Repository: https://github.com/Jcloud67/Docker-Templates UI is through RDPclient, youTowerName:33389 Template defaults /mnt/user/ on host, as the container location /files/. Application Name: Storj.io daemon What is Storj? https://www.storj.io/ Application Site: https://github.com/Storj/storjshare-daemon/ The command line version, of this. Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/oreandawe/storjshare-cli Template-Repository: https://github.com/Jcloud67/Docker-Templates Storj is a Crypto-asset and P2P cloud storage service. This Docker runs the back-end client for Storj allowing internet users to rent their disk space and earn STORJ an Ethereum asset. @Jcloud makes no guarantee that STORJ or ETH will retain, or increase in fiat value.** This is only the Storj Daemon and CLI tool. SETUP REQUIREMENTS: ------------------------------------- 1. TCP ports 4000 open on host and setup on container (should be set below) Ports 4001-4003 are used to tunnel a connection if 4000 is closed, but this typically results in no data being shared. Port(s) 4001++ are used when running multiple nodes. 2. Path on host for Storj data to sit. IE: make a user share, /mnt/user/storj or similar. 3. Your Ethereum-based wallet address. 4. The max allowed space STORJ can take up on the host; remember to make it less than space available on host. (500MB, 1000GB, 1TB, 8TB Note 8TB is maximum size per node) STORJ DAEMON STATUS: (In your command line) docker exec Storj storjshare status ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Application: Storj daemon + CLI tools; storjstat.com monitor script (a fork of the official repo, which is above). . . .

Requests, which couldn't done easily without the source. features: Base container you all know: Storj DAEMON + CLI tools. Installed, storjstat.com monitoring script AND a place for users to put API-key in the template on webui! (DOES NOT YET AUTO-LAUNCH) Now supporting building and launching of multiple farming nodes, AND a place for users to put it in the template on webui! Improved webui template, from lessons learned in past two months. Changed default network type from Bridge to Host (seemed to work out better for most and/or preferred) *feature? A change.* Auto launch of storjstat.com monitor script, and staying on. Currently working on, or trying to improve: Saving storjshare state after loading multiple nodes. entrypoint seems to do this for me. auto-building updates on some periodic function. Setup requirements are the same as Storj. Running the storjMonitor and/or multiple farming nodes are optional. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sia-Coin Sia-coin website: https://sia.tech/ Sia-coin client utilities: https://sia.tech/get-started Docker hub site: https://hub.docker.com/r/mtlynch/sia/ Original Docker install instructions: https://blog.spaceduck.io/sia-docker/ Repository site: https://github.com/mtlynch/docker-sia Template site: https://github.com/Jcloud67/Docker-Templates Sia-coin, from their website, “Sia is a decentralized storage platform secured by blockchain technology. The Sia Storage Platform leverages underutilized hard drive capacity around the world to create a data storage marketplace that is more reliable and lower cost than traditional cloud storage providers.” *** DISCLAIMER *** I have no affiliation with Sia-coin or Mr. Lynch. I was asked if Sia was possible? I found someone already invented the wheel, I just made the hub-cap. I do not guarantee, nor will hold any responsibility, for loss or corrupted data; or that Sia-coin (Sia), Bitcoin (BTC), or any other “crypto-currency” will gain or maintain their current fiat value. *** Please, with any and all, “ICO’s,” “exchanges,” “tokens,” and cryptos’ do exhaustive research before any transaction. *** SETUP: 1. User share for Docker data, I just called it, “Sia”: Example 2. Punch hole in firewall for outside to your docker's ip address, TCP ports 9981 and 9982. DANGER! : Sia also uses TCP port 9980 for command & control, do NOT expose 9980 outside of your network! Failure to follow this rule can result in wallet and Sia host hijack. 3. Download the Sia client from download URL, if you want a GUI experience. 4. Setup Sia template and docker container on unRAID using CA store. 5. For GUI clients, running on a VM or on the LAN: Start the Client and Click on "About" After closing Sia client, and the file manager opened to Sia's configuration files, edit the config.json file Change "detachted": false, to "detached": true, In the "address" line change "127.0.0.1" to your IP address of your Sia container. Save config.json file. When you Restart Sia, it should connect to your docker:
  12. Challenge accepted. Found a Cacti Docker, made a simple template and got it to load, couple of different problems cropping up so tinkering around. Not a dev, so I may be a while before I post something useful. But, it is out there in the wild.
  13. I saw that too. The Ubuntu template uses OVMF which is the UEFI BIOS, the one EVE can't use. EVE looked interesting when I was tinkering, as it was the first I had seen of it. Have a good day.
  14. That is awesome. I'm showing this at work tomorrow.
  15. Short answer (ouch, bad pun) is it could be either. I would say it's more likely to be the PSU, but this level of failure (from your picture) I would play it safe and yank both. Also Frank1940's info is also good, well communitys of it really.
  16. In your BIOS try hitting F7 for Advanced, then boot menu -- somewhere in there perhaps? I don't have your mobo, or the manual up at this time, so I'm just generalizing here.
  17. I also agree, and would shoot for a 600-650W if I was you, save a little green. I've used, and recommend, Antec (don't look at "EarthWatts" models for your use-case) and EVGA brands.
  18. Sounds similar to something I ran into (granted, these were Ryzen Threadrippers, perhaps it's with new AMD?). In your computer bios, the iron and not VM, what is your boot type set for? Is it EFI (only), EFI with legacy support, or legacy only? If you are doing the second one, are you booting into EFI first or into legacy? if you don't know the answer to this last one, does your /boot have a "EFI" or a "EFI-" folder in it? I have a problem on mine where EFI only causes error 43 with my GPU and I get 800x600 in Windows, because it can't load the graphics driver. Pure legacy mode would cause the error to go away, BUT the Windows guest would crash after about 5-6 hours. EFI with legacy mode, and booting using the legacy mode, makes for rock solid guest Windows. Here's some more background, from a different thread. I wouldn't worry about constantly activating Windows. Windows 10 will give you 98% functionality without activating. No activation in W10 means: Watermark at bottom right hand corner of screen, and lockout of personalize settings (desktop, screen saver, lock screen, colors, etc). Should be all the functionality you need for working on the Windows guest.
  19. Yes, just like your Windows installer ISO you need to mount the virt-io ISO as a cdrom. If you don't have the file for the virtio drivers yet, click on the "?Help" for your VM template, in the help text should be a URL to download the image file, just put it with your other ISOs and then reference it. This should popup the missing drive, if it doesn't you could open up Disk Management in Windows. Right-click on Windows button; choose "Disk Manager," then see if there is a cdrom device that is missing a drive-letter, and give it one. I doubt you'll need this last step. I hope this helps.
  20. @TUMS has some SAS HBA cards for sale, coupled with one of these and you would be all set. I don't know if it is the price-point you're interested in though. Just thought I would present another, granted it's the same solution as @rilles just with some links for you.
  21. You could change it to Fahrenheit, then it would be higher numbers AND you wouldn't know how cold it is.
  22. System doesn't it's just JBOD. For Docker/apps I use the CA backup utility. For my VMs I make a manual copy of my vhd's to a vmBackup folder on my array. Everything else is either Mover for the shares. Which just leaves the Steam games I leave on the cache, and to me if I lost this I only see lost time as I just have to download it from Steam again (for me this isn't a problem). So you're correct, my cache is not protected - I'm fine with that, and take steps to cover my bum.
  23. If you don't need the mirror protection of the raid-pool but want to treat it as a JBOD pool that is also possible.
  24. Scary, I think I know how to make these Docker Containers now. This appears to be running. The template is based on Storj public nightly build. Here is the Storj hub.. This is NOT the Storj GUI, just the daemon, which is accessed through cli via docker. Only seems like one important command anyways: docker exec Storj storjshare status EDIT: ((Nuked the template)) Can now be found on the Community Apps Plugin.
  25. Just trying it now, thank you for screen shot, that really helped. I was honestly lost without it. I did notice I have a few extra fields that your screen shot does not. A categories checkbox; support URL; donation URL. Seems all meta for something exactly like CA. Probably is a CA tool I grabbed out of plug-in-land-grab?
