Just to add some kudos for the development team - this is a MASSIVE update and a testament to the tremendous work by the development, testing and of course the community teams that have helped test this through-out the betas and the release candidates! Well done!

@limetech Could we have the latest nvidia drivers too?
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/170804/en-us
460.56
We are running 455.45.01, any benefit to push for 460.56?

Successfully upgraded 3 (encrypted) systems from 6.8.3 to 6.9.0.
One of the 6.8.3 systems was running nvidia-plugin, upgrade procedure:
0. Stop docker containers from auto-starting.
1. Download and upgrade to 6.9.0 without rebooting.
2. Go to plugins and select old nvidia plugin, select it and remove.
3. Reboot.
4. Install new nvidia plugin: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ich777/unraid-nvidia-driver/master/nvidia-driver.plg
5. WAIT FOR PROPER INSTALL TO FINISH - IT TAKES TIME
6. Stop and start Docker service
7. Enjoy.
NOTE: Your GPU ID should not change.

@limetech, thank you for formally recognizing the developers who contributed and worked on the nvidia driver
( https://wiki.unraid.net/Unraid_OS_6.9.0#Nvidia_Driver ) :::
QuoteOne of the most popular third-party drivers requested for Unraid OS is Nvidia's GPU Linux driver. This driver is required for transcoding capability in Docker containers. Providing this driver as a plugin for Unraid OS has required a lot of work to set up a dev environment, compile the driver and tools, and then unpack bzmodules, add the driver, create new bzmodules, and then finally replace in USB flash root directory. This work has been accomplished by Community members @CHBMB, @bass_rock, and others. Building on their work, along with member @ich777 we now create separate Nvidia driver packages built against each new Unraid OS release that uses a new kernel, but not directly included in the base bz* distribution.

Added 9211-8i to the list.
Instructions:
Quote# latest release that supports TRIM is P16 (as of 2021-01-30)
# check if trim works
fstrim -v -a
# reboot into EFI Shell:
shellx64.efi
# full erase of controller bios and firmware:
sas2flash.efi -o -e 6
# flash the controller firmware WITHOUT bios, replace $controller with your model
sas2flash.efi -o -f p16\$controller_it.bin# flash the controller firmware WITH bios, replace $controller with your model
sas2flash.efi -o -f p16\$controller_it.bin -b p16\mptsas2.rom
# NOTE: For unRAID you'd be better off without the BIOS (you do not need to boot from it, nor do you need to configure anything).
# verify you are now running P16 firmware (the bios should say N/A if not installed)
sas2flash.efi -listall

Cheers.
--@blakeslade, please see above for 9211-8i.

Yes. If it is a local network - no issue. If it has to connect to external sources, you might have a dependency on VMs and remote connectivity.

To picky back off of this, you can also autostart your encrypted array without having the key stored on your USB. I edited my go file to auto start my array with the key on a network device connected to my network across a site to site VPN connection that is offsite. There are other options as well such as what's shown in this video.
You want to make sure you avoid circular dependencies and shoot yourself in a foot. If your unRAID is also hosting VMs such as pfsense which is used for internet access, you might end up offline and with array offline.

I managed to work it out with some help from doron.. was able to get things going again using the Go file to create the keyfile...
every attempt at using a keyfile from the GUI or any other method that I could think of (like my code above to create the keyfile and start the array) was resulting in an emtpy keyfile in /root so it was very worrying and aggravating. I had changed out my hardware this morning so was praying I didn't inadvertently screw things up.
All is well right now.
As a rule of thumb, you also want to make sure you have a UPS setup to provide sufficient power for a graceful shutdown of your devices.

I would strongly advise against using encryption.. I shut down my array and can't even get the drives to mount again. Every method I've used in the past will not work, the keyfile ends up being blank. I'm getting a little worried here.
That is very odd, are you sure something is not wrong with your setup?
-
If you are not concerned with having the keyfile on the server's USB stick, then you can modify the 'go' file to automatically copy the file to auto decrypt the array.
I used an image (which I obviously backed up).
Copy the file to /boot/config/keyfile
Create a 'go' entry to copy the file from /boot/config/keyfile to /root/keyfile
--
# cat /boot/config/go #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & cp /boot/config/keyfile /root/keyfile

Hey Team,
What would be the upgrade path for users running the nvidia plugin on 6.8.3 ( https://forums.unraid.net/topic/77813-plugin-linuxserverio-unraid-nvidia/ ), the plugin has been deprecated which means we cannot even uninstall following the official process.
Once 6.9.x is released, how can we upgrade with proper support for nvidia cards?
Cheers.

Unraid is shipping vulnerable packages, some fixed over a year ago. Where's the security updates?
Can you be more specific? What vulnerabilities are you referring to?
Vulnerabilities are ranked differently based on the complexity, feasibility of the execution and impact on Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (aka CIA) . And you measure your own risks, @limetech addresses appropriates risks in a timely fashion as we've seen in the past. I'd like to get more context around this, what are you eluding to and what risks do you need mitigated.

A few questions for you @ezhik
- Are the prices in CAD or USD ?
- Are the "new" drives still under warranty ?
- How long have they been used (power on hours) / when were they purchased ?
Thank you in advance for your answers 😌
Prices are in CAD. The drive average is 16K-19K Hours. There 3-4 drives that had 27K hours, I'll dig those up separately and let you know if the hours are a concern (Do note that these drives are MTBF of 1,000,000+ Hours). All WD Gold 4TB Drives are 16K-19K range.
No warranty remaining, these were purchased through the partner program and only had 1 year to begin with. However, using KillDisk does a thorough erase with confirmation so the drives completed the procedure OK.

Yes, it is the initial seeding of current content of 11-12TB that is the real concern. After that, it is all incremental.
With CrashPlan it literally took months for the initial seeding and that was only around 4-5TB.
You should be fine, even the slow down doesn't kick in right away. They give you leeway for a bit before they enforce it.

That's not a bad option at all. If I am not intruding what kind of files are you pushing? I mostly have phots and videos and some random work related files.
Is duplicati pretty reliable? My last experience was not good but perhaps it will work better with jottacloud
Thanks much
Mostly pictures, videos and documents (filled out applications, signed documents, personal files, work files, etc).
Duplicati creates a local db (index) of the files you have encrypted, sliced into smaller chunks and uploaded to the cloud. It is your responsibility to backup duplicati data, without it you'd be dead in the water.
Is it reliable? I haven't had issues until I pushed over 40TB for testing of (large) bogus content. At that time I noticed that if the backup was interrupted it had difficulties restarting.
Now if you want turn-key solution, backblaze is pretty good. As for me personally, I am OK with jottacloud. I have multiple unraid servers (5 to be exact) and one only gets turned on to do rsync for backups of the critical stuff.
The general rule of thumb is the '3-2-1 backup'. 3 copies of the critical data, 2 physical and 1 remote (cloud). Anything that is critical, have it initially on the redundant storage array, separate copy stored on an external drive/USB/another server and one copy (encrypted) on a cloud provider just in case.
-
I think they drop it down to 10mbit. I have stress tested it and uploaded 30TB at some point, they can hold it alright.
In either case, even if the speeds are reduced for uploads, they are still bearable for the uploads. At the end of the day, it is what you value most that you should invest in most. My backups are incremental and therefore the speed reduction hasn't really impacted my ability to backup critical data as it runs over night and the chunks are not that big.
-
Since we are talking about cloud backups:
unRAID -> duplicati (+ AES 256 encryption) -> jottacloud (unlimited @ $99/yr)

Upgraded my array, these drives are in a good condition and have been fully tested and fully wiped using kill disk.

Let's work together to repair this relationship. I love this community and what unRAID has become.
Seeing it evolve over a decade shows the strength of this one united large family.
Let's fix this, we are better than that. I have re-read the comments and although they are good points, this does not help us re-unite. @limetech, came through and did the initial steps with a public apology attempting to repair the relationship and yes, wounds do not heal overnight, but it is a two-way street.
I cannot repair it, but from a community member perspective, it hurts to see it fall apart - let's stay united and kind. Again, we are better than this.

Build this little beauty in the beginning of last year and i am still loving it.
The chassis is a bit expensive but the best case i have ever had my hands on: well designed and thought out: simply fantastic!
A huge shoutout to "spaceinvader one" and everybody in this community introducing me to docker (which i completely neglected since its implementation in UnRaid) what makes this build more versatile than i could have ever dreamed of.
What do your temps look like? Considering things can get pretty hot when parity check kicks in, i am curious. This definitely looks great!

Thanks for this, do i just boot into the LSI, then run this from there and it should be fine?
No, you need to boot the EFI shell via UEFI. Format your USB to FAT32 and put the shell on the root of the device then boot the shell, there should be an option in the bios to do so.
https://superuser.com/questions/1057446/how-do-i-boot-to-uefi-shell
NOTE: Prior to proceeding with the firmware downgrade, please review the differences between MBR and UEFI boot mechanisms and review how you can boot an EFI shell.

Can anyone make a simple guide/walkthrough for this. I am running the most current version, but would love to downgrade to have drives trimmed!
This works in EFI via the attached efi shell.
