That actually makes a lot more sense now. Yeah, I don't mind having it down for the couple days that I am away.

I will be flying out to the other servers location soon and will have access to both booth drives while making the swap. If I understand what you saying, I would have to purchase two additional USB drives and then restore from backups. Which still makes thing a little difficult cause both servers have different configurations, plugins, shares, etc. I'm assuming the UUID information for the USB drive is stored in the .key file, no? If that is the case is it not easier to just swap everything over from the config folder on both drives, except for the .key file? This way it retains the configuration of everything.

Great idea on the backup, I didn't even consider that. I am flying out soon to where the other server is located, I was going to bring the USB drive with me and perform the swap.

So I have two servers, server A has a basic license and server B has a plus license. I'd like to move the plus license to Server A and the basic license to server B. What exactly do I have to do to make this change as smooth as possible without ruining anything? Do I just copy/paste the USB config folder in each USB drive to the other drive, leaving behind the basic/plus.key in each USB drive? I'd like to get a clear understanding of how to get this done as both servers are located in different states and I will not have time to trouble shoot any problems if they arise. Any input is appreciated, thanks!

Here is my volume mappings and download shares. I'm not quite sure where or what the the docker run command is. Care to elaborate where I can find this information? I should also say that I did a reinstall on the unRAID OS, wiped the cache drive, and did a fresh install of all containers and plugins and the issue is still persisting.

I posted this on /r/unraid but I figure I might try and get some help here too. I need some helping figuring out how to stop NZBGet from making my server completely unresponsive when it is working. I can't load unRAID's GUI nor can I access any docker containers when it is downloading. Shortly after a download is initiated, the cpu usage spikes to 100% and I am locked out until NZBGet completes its tasks. I've tried restricting NZBGet to 4Gb of memory and 1 of the 4 cores via --cpuset-cpus=0 --memory=4G. According to "docker stats" the memory is restricted correctly, but it still utilized all 4 of the available cores. Does anybody have an idea how to stop this issue? Also, NZBGet downloads and unpacks to the cache SSD drive and not the array. M/B: ASRock - H97M-ITX/ac CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz

Yeah, that's what I have been doing. I was just under the impression that I could manually execute the cron job in the command prompt for testing purposes. So when I would enter the path to the crontab in the command prompt, it would give the error. I just realized it was working properly when one of my crontab's executed perfectly fine. Thanks for the help though!

Well I'm a complete idiot and everything works as it should. I was under the impression that I could manually run cron tab by entering the path of the crontab in the command prompt. Turns out this is not the case. Sorry to waste your time.

I did it in nano, via putty.

Thanks for the response! I'm assuming by full path that I should do: 0 12 * * 7 /usr/bin/rsync -a --ignore-existing --ignore-errors --delete --log-file=/mnt/cache/appdata/rsync.log /mnt/user/audiobooks/ /mnt/disks/192.168.1.150_audiobooks |& logger Correct? If so, the same issue of command not found occurred.

Custom cron.

It happens when I run it in the background. It's just strange that it only occurs when using the plug-in. Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

I have been having an issue where I use rsync, via User Scripts, to perform backups to a remote server and that would make the webGUI unresponsive until the task was completed. Strange thing is I can run the rsync task via shell and I do not have any issues not being able to use the webGUI. Any idea why this is occurring?

So for the past week I have spent hours trying to troubleshoot this problem. I initially used User Scripts plugin to create a cron job that would backup some shares to a remote server. I eventually noticed once the script was run via User Scripts my local servers webGUI would be completely unresponsive. At first I thought something had crashed and would end up performing a unclean shutdown. Being that I am trying to backup large files over the internet, I would sometimes not be able to access the webGUI for a whole day. When I had the servers on the same LAN I did not have this issue at all since file transfers occurred much quicker. Now seeking out an alternative method to run the cronjob I created a crontab in /boot/config/plugins/dynamix. The crontab has the following: 0 12 * * 7 rsync -a --ignore-existing --ignore-errors --delete --log-file=/mnt/cache/appdata/rsync.log /mnt/user/audiobooks/ /mnt/disks/192.168.1.150_audiobooks |& logger However the job does not occur and the syslog shows: Aug 29 22:26:40 UNRAID root: ./audiobooks.cron: line 1: 0: command not found. The strange thing is before using User Scripts I performed my rsync jobs this way and it worked fine. I can even manually run this rsync job via shell and it works perfectly fine. What is happening here? Is my syntax incorrect? I don't have anything else in the crontab so I am unsure why this is an issue now. Any help is appreciated! unraid-diagnostics-20170829-2227.zip

Okay so I think something else may be the cause of this and I cannot figure it out. I'm not running any rsync jobs and the server webinterface is completely unresponsive. What is going on?
