Super basic question that I coiuldn’t find answer to… since this is installed via a plugin, is there any issue with rebooting the system and losing config? Or does the rclone config we add survive reboots?

Thank you! this worked for me too.

Thanks @zgo. This solved my issue… my directories were owned by nobody:users, but the permissions were wrong. Any of the folders that were 755 needed to be 777.

can you just access them via the unraid server’s iP with the port number mapped to the container?

Is it possible to run a given user script on multiple schedules? For example, I’d want one to run at array start, and weekly at say Friday at 8pm. is the only way to do this to create a second user script that either dupes the first script and set that to the second schedule, or have a second user script that just calls the script of the first?

Found answer to my own question: https://gist.github.com/auth/github/callback?return_to=https://gist.github.com/shayne/25e194e068751e281937ef68edefb99b&browser_session_id=fd34397b87999ea789b8fe352a941bd934d618392aa50b2c010b21c5cc417eff&code=5e94e3bb523a98b3e868&state=64cadd3d745b45ef88123c51d63a6fa2cf87cda1cb9c517d93b4d6768ab1462a

Thanks @dsmith44 for this container. Works great for my clients on my tailnet to access my Unraid server more securely when I’m not at home without worrying about wireguard or other clunky VPN setup! I’ve got a 2 questions about something I”m trying to accomplish: I just got Tailscale SSH setup by going into the container command line, and running “/app/tailscale up --ssh”. However, should I be running that by adding the “--ssh” command into the UP arguments of the container config to account for container restarts? Or is it sufficient that it’s done only once via command line and this will persist across container restarts? Larger problem related to #1, is that when I get Tailscale SSH running, if I SSH into my Unraid server, I”m actually connecting to the container itself instead of the Unraid host. Any way around this? I want to eliminate all this SSH key management. I think the only way to potentially do this is to figure out installing Tailscale natively into Unraid and not within a container? One thing I’d like to do is from the Unraid command line, to SSH into another server on my tailnet. Is this possible? Since tailscale is running within the container, the tailscale binary itself isn’t available to Unraid directly, so not sure if this is possible as I don’t think the tailscale magicDNS stuff is recognized at the Unraid level outside the container.

This is really just making sure you understand this that isn’t just exposing the container to your tailnet, but rather your entire Unraid server. That said, this should be expected in the way most, if not all, want tailscale to work on Unraid by installing this container anyways. As long as you are following the default configuration of your tailnet, or your customizations to your ACL config is secure, you should be fine.

Genius thank you! It's Nov 2022 and this still is required.

I'm trying to figure out how to pass a custom config to AirConnect but failing. I see options for "-i" and "-x" but failing at getting a config written out or read from a path I added to the container for /mnt/user/appdata/airconnect. anyone have advice here?

Thanks! Looks like the answer is yes, I can do what I suggested as a faster way. Thanks!

Thanks, good catch. But the meat of what I'm asking is whether all that is necessary or if I can just add the 2 new 1TB drives to the cache pool, wait unitl they are added, then remove the other original 2 x 512GB, and in the end have a 1 TB cache pool

Typical way to change disks in your cache drive (single or pool) has been to: 1. Disable VM 2. disable docker 3. change all shares to cache=yes 4. invoke mover, wait for it to finish 5. change drives However this is a little painful and slow. I was wondering if it was faster to just all the 2 new drives as additional drives to the cache pool, then when it’s done setting up, remove the 2 original drives. I then found this comment which indicates it’s possible: However my old drives are 512GB SSD and my new ones are 1TB. Will this work while ultimately leasing me using the full 1TB when the two 512GB are removed from the pool?

I've done all the guides and work with sensors and sensor-detect, but my unraid system does not detect my fans in my system. I expected this to be easier. It does see sensors for temperature though. I've done all the obligatory searches but cannot find an answer, hence why I'm posting this. Anyone have any tips?

just not as convenient since I have to then worry about mapping shares available to the docker, and that abstraction is inconvenient for various scripts I write. I’d much rather have mediainfo available generally in unraid

Using the method from @DeathStar Darth I couldn’t get mediainfo installed converting from the Debian package. I’m trying to figure out how to create my own txz package directly. Does anyone have pointers?

Thanks! Out of curiosity what does this last line do? Is it just putting a max size on the folder? I don't quite understsand all the components of the command.

Thanks..this helped me figure out what was what. What I ddi was just get that copy of the libmediainfo and copy to /boot/extra, and on reboot it's auto installed. No need for a user script. Update: Oops, i see you are just downloading also the debian mediainfo package and converting it, then installing it. An optimization here might be to install libmediainfo and libzen via /boot/extra and just have a script for the mediainfo debian conversion.

years ago when i first setup my unraid server, I was having issues with the log share size, so I found this discussion which uses a few lines in the go file to increase the log size: https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=38564.msg410062#ms Specifically the lines are: mount -o remount,size=256m /var/log logger -tgo "Increased space for logs to 256MB" I'm wondering if this is still necessary in 2022? Has something changed in unraid making this unnecessary after 6 years or is this still on a case by case basis?

I think I'm having problems related to this as I have upgraded lots of movies to 4K HEVC HDR, and been consistently blowing my ram out I think. In reading the last few pages of this thread, I'm guessing that's the issue here. My system has 64GB of memory, but 16-20GB of it is dedicated to various VMs. I assumed that the remaining was sufficient but i have lots of people streaming remotely from plex (so transcoding) and possibly downloading. So I'm wondering what hte right thing to do here is as the last few pages left me confused. Currently, my plex container has /transcode mapped to /tmp.

Transcoding to /tmp. My system has 64GB of RAM.

Never before have I had this problem where my rootfs was filling up to 100%. A few weeks ago, I was getting all sorts of error in Plex saying the disk was full, and when I tried to login to the unraid dashboard, it kept reloading and timing out. I then went to my phsyical machine and logged in, and at the terminal ran a "df -H /" and it showed rootfs was at 100% full. I couldn't do anything and some research showed I should reboot which I did. That solved the problem. However, since then, this has happened again a few days later so I'm trying to track down what's going on. I'm not aware of anything really changing my unraid setup other than container upgrades. For example, I haven't suddenly changed where plex is doing it's transcodes but it's possible that it's filling up since 3-4 weeks ago I started upgrading movies to 4k counterparts from 1080p so the transcodes would be more aggressive. However, I didn't know if that's it and don't know how to read my system diagnostics. I've attached them in hopes someone can help! tower-diagnostics-20221013-1410.zip

I'm late to the party on this but worried about the deprecation of NerdPack in upcoming 6.11. I have used this as an easy way to get LFTP for years and now wondering what I need to do without NerdPack. I've been reading past posts and not totally clear on the right path. Is it this on 6.10 so i won't be broken on 6.11 ugprade? 1. Create a /boot/extra directory 2. Download packages to that folder 3. Run "installpkg <LFTP package name>" on each package in /boot/extra ? What do I need to do to handle this automatically on reboot? Other packages I use nerdpack to install are: mediainfo libmediainfo libzen (although I cannot remember what i use this for)

I tried to follow the upgrde instructions but when I connect back into the console of the docker container, the upgrade command fails: Any ideas?
