  1. The image can be put to any path you want, it doesn't matter.

    If nothing have change and only restart the HA VM then image file delete, then I will assume something wrong in your HA restore.

    Pls try re-create the VM, start it and don't restore it, then restart the VM again ..... and check image file gone or not.

     

    Below are the VM setting look like and the VNC console

    I believe it have self update and the console look different now. ( As mention I change to use docker now )

    Just type the command "host reboot" in console, then it reboot normally.

  2. To summarize,

     

    Pls try

    - disable host access

    - disable bridge

    - disable bonding

    - stop VM

     

    Then check does different mac have same IP (assign / static) and promiscuous mode flapping gone. ( you may need waiting enough aging time for switch forgot the mac )

     

    If positive, we can assume problem come from VM then focus on VM part / setting.

    the problem with unifi and ipvaln is that everything from dockers to services use the same mac address and are not logged correctly in the unifi application. macvlan must be used for unifi...

    That's know, but why OP have the said problem ( flipping and source destination same mac )

  4. For vhost got same IP problem, this likely due to host access enable and your network environment relate. in general said, once enable that always trouble.

     

    I use macvtap at all ( ipvlan also fine ), just disable bridge and host access.

     

    For same mac on source destination, this usually because routing relate and easy happen when use multiple NIC.

     

    To simple my question, does all problem gone if you disable bridge and host access and never touch UR routing table? ( exclude HA unreachable and HA can't access share issue )

  5. I m not expert of docker network, but interest on what other people doing and why need preserve custom network, in first, I m thinking does any VPN plugin / docker cause problem.

    Anyway you found another solution, btw due to I put docker path to /tmp so every reboot need re-download all docker, that may help fix some hidden issue.  And I also apply VLAN to separate stuff for what I need.

    I have recently been testing the JMB585 controller on cards, paired with multiplier boards using the JMB575.  So far all of my tests have been showing very positive results, and fall into the speeds I calculated and expected.  I have also been testing the AS media controller, with no issues yet.

     

    I just noticed this card about 30 minutes ago on Amazon, and realized it has everything combined into one card, instead of playing with one controller card, and 5 separate multiplexer boards.  Plus, one of my concerns was heat on the controller and multiplexer chips, this board has a nice heatsink to take care of that concern too!

     

    Do I recommend this chip set solution?  I am going to upgrade 1 or 2 of my older Unraid systems going this route, as it will drastically speed up parity checks and drive builds if needed.  But, as not many people are running the combination, I would say proceed with caution.

     

    But still no report for testing from @bing281 and JorgeB estimate min. throughput down 73MB/s per disk.

    Machine would be on 24/7. Electricity cost is not an issue.

    Thats great, but do you have UPS ? For non-UPS protect system, I will config limit / minimize continue writing ( i.e. security camera recording ) to one NVMe / disks instead most of storage. This will major prevent FS corruption in suddenly power off.

    I was keeping emulated VM HDD drives on cache (smallest NVMe)

    This not a problem if you never mind the warning.

    How should I format HDDs, ZFS/xfs/btrfs and what combo?

    I like btrfs more then ZFS, mainly bcz better performance.

    Is it sane to have parity protected Array with smaller HDDs and a ZFS pool with 3x 16TB Seagates?

    That depends on what capacity you need and how you define pool / array is main / backup. For me, I use array as backup tier, but it also share for some user because array has better user access control.

    As I want to transfer file quickly, so pool are 1st place to store file then periodic sync to array. ( I don't like mover design, so array and pool always independent )

  8. In longtime ago, I also use USB enclosure for the build, I buy two different 5 bays enclosure, the first one never reliable and the 2nd one finally reliable by adding a USB hub ( dedicate chips ) and change the firmware of the enclosure. Both enclosure architecture are USB to SATA phy + port multipler but they use different chips solution. Nowadays, some USB enclosure use different architecture, they are USB to USB hub + multiple USB-SATA phys, this may be more reliable, but still many issue could cause problem.

     

    In simple say, you could try adding USB 3.X hub in between and test any different.

    I have my HBA cables running out the back and connecting to my 3 HDD enclosures.

    You should provide more detail how they connect, does all running long cable in SATA protocol so cause error ? If that, you can fix it by make them in SAS protocol in all long path, only last mile in SATA.

    With connect HBA to SAS expander, then this path will be SAS and support long distance < 10m, in each enclosure then fan-out from expander to SATA harddisk will be SATA and make them shorter then 1m.

     

    Next was rack disk swap case, rack case have backplane, so it eliminate mass power cabling to power up all disks. But also due to backplane only have small area to passthrough air flow, so it very hard to cool well even you putting 3000rpm or high pressure fan for cooling.

     

    I build in two box, it is a 3U expander (w mobo) case + 2U raw case (disk only), I add a expander ace-82885t in 2U enclosure and use one 8644 cable ( 50cm ) to connect them, the HBA are 9300-4i4e.

     

    image.png.4d6adc81ad424e5fe8ed9db1be3012

     

    It have different generation, the first version use two 9211-8i, one for internal and one for external, the external use a pair 8087 2m cable and IBM expander for the 2U path. The second version was 9211-8i + 1000-8e .... and currently only use one 9300-4i4e.

  10. I never found Unraid will control FAN PWM, I also make adjustment on PWM by user script, just simple set the value and no fluctuation. But the path different as you, you may try

     

    echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/f71882fg.656/pwm1_enable
    echo 32 > /sys/devices/platform/f71882fg.656/pwm1

     

    echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/nct6775.656/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm1_enable

    echo $rpm > /sys/devices/platform/nct6775.656/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm1

    Out of curiosity, what is the CPU on your unraid host?

    Unraid CPU is 9700K, in longtime ago test, both directions got near 10Gbps result. No matter real-virtual or virtual-virtual. Haven't much idea currently.

  12. My router have a feature name "WAN IP Alias" and I never aware that, it is something like you can add a virtual IP to your WAN.

     

    With those WAN IPs, you can open port and loop back to local. The advantage was it so easy for routing different subnet / vlan traffic to local, the drawback was source IP will change to WAN IP then you can't identify the traffic from which local client.

     

    With "IP alias", you can set additional IP under WAN I/F, then when you access those Internet IP, it will route to your local service. Because I limit the source IP must be same as alias, so basically no Internet traffic will route to local.

    With those setting, now I can

    - Access 192.168.6.6 "WAN IP" to different service which host in other subnet, even actual WAN IP change, I don't need change again.

    - Traditional DNS resolve to 8.8.8.8 / 9.9.9.9 will redirect to local DNS ( 192.168.2.5 )

    - Once local DNS down or maintenance, I can simple disable the alias, then those traffic will go to Internet as usual.

     

    Now you will found 8.8.8.8 and 9.9.9.9 record in your DNS server. I also add other DNS traffic ( i.e. DNS resolve not follow DNS setting ) to local too.

    Why does adding RAM make such a little impact on consumption? Is it because I need to have some activity to make it actually consume power?

    RAM really doesn't use lot of power, you would found even single phase power circuit would be enough, but if you add some voltage to it, then power will raise dramatically but still neglectable if compare to CPU power usage.

     

    For CPU, it also same, the pkg power was low because CPU run in minimal working voltage.

     

    I never concern deep C-states, I usually focus on those power hungry appliances, i.e. air-conditioner, heater etc. Take over control its cool on / off by automation have saving more.

    Am I wrong, and there is a valid reason for Unraid to continue to re-zero the rest of the drive?

    Unraid can't confirm does the drive already zeroed even it have signatures. So designer will keep zeroing to the end ..... But you can decide to stop or not.

    Same behavior on both boxes 

     

    Both box got same behaviour ? This strange.

     

    In general, display will blank due to saving suspension, but once press any key, monitor output will resume.

     

    For immediate shutdown behaviour on power outage (different UPS), I don't thing this related, it is because power unstable won't cause crash, system will just reboot or keep in power off.
