Background:Unraid includes apcupsd by default, and /etc/logrotate.d/apcupsd is configured to rotate /var/log/apcupsd.events weekly on Sundays at 4:40am via cron. This rotation triggers a restart of apcupsd, which results in a brief "Communications with UPS lost" message in the syslog. Jun 22 04:40:02 Tower rc.apcupsd: Restarting APC-UPS Power Management...

This is a confusing and unnecessary alert for users who have not actually experienced a UPS failure. Users expect to be alerted only for real UPS communication failures. False positives reduce trust in the alerting system and cause unnecessary concern. I personally have spent many hours trying to figure out what is causing this and whether I need to worry about it and I've come across a bunch of threads with other users inquiring about the same thing. Unraid Notification: TIME EVENT SUBJECT DESCRIPTION IMPORTANCE 29-06-2025 04:40 Unraid Server Alert UPS Alert Warning communications lost with UPS XCESSUPS alert 22-06-2025 04:40 Unraid Server Alert UPS Alert Warning communications lost with UPS XCESSUPS alert Feature Request:Please suppress the "Communication with UPS lost" notification when the event occurs at the known scheduled restart time (e.g., Sunday 4:40am daily) caused by logrotate. This could be achieved by: - Temporarily suppressing the commfailure event in apccontrol if it occurs in a small window around 4:40am - Or modifying the notification system to ignore this specific expected logrotate-triggered restart Thank you for considering!

I am also impacted by this Mover Tuning Plugin bug. Caused my cache to fill up and made a mess.

Decided to create a bug report so if anyone has input please post there instead...mods feel free to delete this.

I decided to try going from 6.12.10 to 6.12.11 and was able to do so and get an IP automatically. Then I went from 6.12.11 to 6.12.13 and again was able to get an IP automatically. Then I went from 6.12.13 to 6.12.14 and have the same problem described in this thread. So the problem is definitely something with 6.12.14.

Appreciate the response/suggestion @JorgeB! I am not sure how to do that but I will look into it. I noticed in 6.10.12 the same cdc_ether device get registered to usb0: while in 6.10.14 it gets registered to eth0: Seems like something has changed with the kernel or drivers that results in the same device being recognized/registered differently in 6.10.12 vs 6.10.14. Does this seem like something that I should file a bug report for so that an official fix could maybe be implemented?

Coming from 6.12.10 - everything was working fine, but after upgrading to 6.12.14 I lost network. No hardware changes. My AsRockRack E3C246D4U motherboard has 2 onboard LAN ethernet NICs which are both disabled in BIOS. I have a Mellanox ConnectX-3 EN (MCX311A-XCAT) 10Gbe PCIe NIC installed (single port) which is what unraid should be using for network. However, in 6.12.14, Unraid has assigned eth0 to some USB NIC device I've never heard of called "CDC Ethernet Device" while it assigns my Mellanox NIC to eth1. (Screenshot from IPMI KVM below) In the previous OS version (6.12.10), the Mellanox 10Gbe NIC is automatically assigned to eth0 and the virtual USB NIC device is disabled: There is definitely no physical USB ethernet adapters connected to the server. Maybe this is a red herring, but my best guess is that this is a virtual device that is there for IPMI KVM redirection purposes?? I found a support thread from another user mentioning the same type of "cdc_ether" device and for them it ended up being related to their Dell iDRAC (Dell's IPMI implementation) "OS TO IDRAC PASS THROUGH" feature, which they disabled and that fixed their problem. I have looked all through the BMC Settings in the BIOS as well as in AsRockRack's HTML5 IPMI KVM tool and I can't find anything relating to USB NIC pass-through (there is pass-through settings but only for virtual floppy/optical/harddisk). There is no network-rules.cfg file in /boot/config and therefore no Interface Rules section in Network Settings in the GUI so I am unable to manually assign the Mellanox 10Gbe NIC to eth0. I tried to rename /boot/config/network.cfg and reboot, but this didn't fix it. In Network Settings, I tried to disable bonding and bridging on the eth0 USB NIC and reboot but that didn't work either. I then rolled back to 6.12.10 and everything was working again. I have attached Diagnostics. Appreciate any assistance! tower-diagnostics-20241209-1158.zip

agree!!

did you ever figure this out? I'm having similar problem except I didn't add a new NIC. I just upgraded from 6.12.10 to 6.12.14 and after rebooting to apply the update I lost network...

I see there's a new BMC version 1.90.00 released 12/4/2024. For description it just says "update sensors reading", wonder what specifically that means?? Has anyone tried it yet?

I just opened terminal and typed "sensors-detect"

Think I figured out a workaround. So I tried running sensors-detect in terminal and the final output listed the name of the drivers associated with each adapter: Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `coretemp': * Chip `Intel digital thermal sensor' (confidence: 9) Driver `to-be-written': * ISA bus, address 0xca2 Chip `IPMI BMC KCS' (confidence: 8) Driver `jc42': * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at efa0' Busdriver `i2c_i801', I2C address 0x18 Chip `IDT TSE2004' (confidence: 5) * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at efa0' Busdriver `i2c_i801', I2C address 0x1a Chip `IDT TSE2004' (confidence: 5) Driver `nct6775': * ISA bus, address 0x290 Chip `Nuvoton NCT6791D Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) Note: there is no driver for IPMI BMC KCS yet. Check https://hwmon.wiki.kernel.org/device_support_status for updates. Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (yes/NO): yes Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. You should now start the lm_sensors service to load the required kernel modules. Unloading i2c-dev... OK Then I went into the plugin and in the 'Available drivers' field I typed 'jc42' > save > load drivers. This gave me 2 new sensors that weren't showing before and all my existing sensors remained. Then I tried 'coretemp' > save > load drivers. This gave me all of the coretemp sensors that I was missing. This is what I see now:

Yes I tried unloading and reloading and even uninstalling the plugin and re-installing, same results every time.

So I don't have the same sensors available...any idea why? E3C246D4U BIOS L2.34 BMC 1.80.00 ME Firmware Version 5.1.4.208 UNRAID 6.9.2 Dynamix System Temp Plugin v2020.06.20 I clicked detect > it sees 'coretemp nct6775' > save > load drivers > and I only see these options:

Awesome plugin! Thanks a lot for making it!! Is it possible to display more than 4 sensors in the footer? I have 9 different sensors that I'd like to include and plenty of real estate in the footer to fit them all.

I am not able to see any of the drives behind my 3ware controller.

Has anyone with this board/cpu combo tried using all 3 PCIe slots simultaneously including a GPU in the x16 slot and been able to pass it through to a VM while also using the iGPU for Plex transcoding and the IPMI VGA for remote management?

Awesome, thanks for validating that!

That'd be awesome! I'd really appreciate it. Are you able to tell if the x4 slot or sata_0 are deactivated? From you signature it looks like you have a 10GbE NIC, assuming it's in the x16 or x8 slot? If so then maybe you could try putting it in the x4 slot and see if it's recognized?

Clear as mud!! Does anyone monitoring this thread have the same board/cpu and also have an NVMe they can test with? I'd like to confirm it'll work before I order...

I am trying to understand if I will be able to run an NVMe SSD in the M.2 slot + a GTX1050Ti in the PCIe 3.0 x16 slot + a Mellanox 10GB NIC in the PCIe 3.0 x8 slot all at the same time. The E3C246D4U mobo has 3x PCIe slots: PCIe 3.0 x16 Slot 6: Gen3 x16 link, auto switch to x8 link if Slot 4 is occupied plan to use this slot for GPU (Zotac GTX1050Ti) PCIe 3.0 x8 Slot 4: Gen3 x8 link plan to use this slot for Mellanox 10G NIC (MCX311A-XCAT CX311A ConnectX-3) PCIe 3.0 x4 Slot 5: Gen3 x4 link plan to use this slot for NVMe SSD via M.2 slot (Samsung 970 EVO Plus) I would like to use the IPMI VGA for remote management, iGPU for Plex docker transcoding, and pass the GTX1050Ti to a VM. I know that the x16 slot will auto switch to x8 in this configuration but I don't think that will handicap the GPU at all. Anyone foresee any problems with this setup? Another thing I'm curious about is whether using an PCIe NVMe SSD in the M.2 slot will result in SATA0 port being deactivated. I've seen a post in this thread by @Hoopster saying: but that seems to conflict with what the manual says:

I would also really like to be able to view disk I/O for unassigned devices, ideally in the dashboard the same way we can see it for array disks/cache. Is this possible? If not in the dashboard what other ways can I monitor this in real-time?

I think I had to do same thing...checked the .ovpn file to see what server it was trying to connect to and then looked that up on https://mullvad.net/en/servers/ and saw it was down. Found another server that was up and changed it in the .ovpn file, saved file, then restarted docker and it immediately worked.

Thank you very much for developing this awesome app and working with me to get GAPS working on my unRAID setup! I have a couple of feature requests: Show MovieDB / IMDB / Rotten Tomatoes rating of each suggested movie - I have several hundred suggestions so it'd be nice if I could sort by ratings to help me prioritize which movies to consider adding to my collection. Easy way to export the results into Excel. I tried using the Copy to Clipboard option but as far as I can tell it just copies the suggested movies into a sequential text string that I'm not sure what you can do with: Ironclad 2 Battle for Blood (2014) in collection 'Ironclad Collection'A Christmas Story 2 (2012) in collection 'A Christmas Story Collection'Ace Ventura Jr Pet Detective (2009) in collection 'Ace Ventura Collection'Lady and the Tramp II Scamp's Adventure (2001) in collection 'Lady and the Tramp Collection'How to Train Your Dragon (2010) in collection 'How to Train Your Dragon Collection'How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) in collection 'How to Train Your Dragon Collection' If it copied with formatting so that each movie was on a separate line that'd be much more useful in my opinion since you could then paste that into Excel or notepad and have the output be easily readable. Example: Ironclad 2 Battle for Blood (2014) in collection 'Ironclad Collection' A Christmas Story 2 (2012) in collection 'A Christmas Story Collection' Ace Ventura Jr Pet Detective (2009) in collection 'Ace Ventura Collection' Lady and the Tramp II Scamp's Adventure (2001) in collection 'Lady and the Tramp Collection' How to Train Your Dragon (2010) in collection 'How to Train Your Dragon Collection' How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) in collection 'How to Train Your Dragon Collection' I know I can also manually copy/paste from the GUI into Excel easily enough so this is definitely not a high priority request, but it'd be cool if there was a button to click to dump it to excel automatically. Or maybe have a "show all" view setting so I can manually copy all suggested movies in one go. After the initial scan and then clicking on 'View RSS' there's no easy way to get back to the previous page where you have all of your suggested movies including the 'Restart', 'View RSS', 'Copy to Clipboard' buttons at the bottom (https://192.168.86.12:8484/plexMovieList). Clicking the 'Recommeded' link in the header takes you to a view where it only shows the table of recommendations but there are no buttons at the bottom (https://192.168.86.12:8484/recommended). I think those buttons should be present from the https://192.168.86.12:8484/recommended page as well, or just merge those pages into one? This one is probably a little outside the scope of your app but figured I'd throw it out there anyway - I'd LOVE an easy way to export to .csv my entire movie library including metadata like video format, resolution, audio format, audio channels, etc. There used to be some plugin I did that with but last time I tried I couldn't get it working so now I don't have any way to do it.

Sent you the output via direct message. I do have quite a few of the type=movie libraries.
