Hey all looking for some help please. I'm running V6.12.3. I have two cache pools: I have shares as follows: What I want to happen is have all my downloads from NZBGet occur on the "cache_downloads" pool. Once everything is renamed I want to move it to my Media folder and live on the "cache" pool until the mover transfers it to the array on it's move schedule. NZBGet downloads are working proper and the files end up on "cache_downloads" pool. I manually move them using Midnight Commander (I navigate to user/downloads and move them to user/media). The problem is that it just created a "Media" folder on the "cache_downloads" pool instead of on the "cache" pool. Now when I invoke the mover there is nothing on "cache" to move to the array. I have a few questions at this moment: In Midnight Commander should I be moving direct from the "cache_downloads" download folder instead of user/downloads? What is the best way to get the files in the "Media" folder stuck on "cache_downloads" pool safely over to the array? I'm thinking I change the Media share temporarily to be "cache_downloads" and invoke the mover and when finished put it back to "cache". Would the Dynamix File Manager work to transfer between pools or would it exhibit the same behavior as Midnight Commander? Maybe I'm not handling the smartest way, but my hopes were to have all the IO in downloading, repairing, extracting, renaming and so on happen on the unprotected cache pool then transfer it to the protected cache pool where I'll let it stay for quite some time before invoking the mover. Likely we will consume that media before it gets to the array and therefore spare some additional array wear and tear. Should I just run a single cache pool with all four drives in ZFS Raidz? TIA for any help or direction.

I had to reinstall the docker to fix it. Hasn’t happened since.

I'm in the same boat, what was the resolution?

Anyone one else having an issue loading files into the left window? I click and get the choice to Add Folder or Add Files, but when I make a selection nothing happens. I don't get the usual dialog box to navigate my directories anymore. I tried restarting the docker and refreshing the WebGUI but no luck. Docker is up to date.

Thanks for the help. I successfully flashed using the commands in my OP. Using '-listall' shows just like your reply, FW Ver: 20.00.07.00 and x86-BIOS: No Image. No I just need to wait to get home from work to test this beauty out! I'll be replacing a Marvel 4 port SATA controller that has been giving me issues.

@johnnie.black thanks, so having No Image for the x86-BIOS won't be an issue or cause the SAS2008 controller to brick when I restart/power off? I assume it will be just fine and it would brick if there was no firmware. Is there a large performance difference having a BIOS image flashed vs not?

Hey guys I was hoping to get a clear answer on the commands to issue in order to flash my new LSI 9211-8i to the latest firmware in IT mode. I'm going to use an older Dell that should be a BIOS and not UEFI, so we can avoid issues with trying to accomplish this on a newer motherboard. I'm following this guide: https://nguvu.org/freenas/Convert-LSI-HBA-card-to-IT-mode/ After reading posts from this and other forums, I feel like it's not necessary to flash the mtpsas2.rom BIOS for use with my unRAID server with the 9211-8i being used to host 8 SATA HDDs. Now, I don't want to brick my LSI my first time flashing, so I wanted to nail down the commands from the guide I linked, but to not include the BIOS portion. Apparently if I clear the LSI controller and power off it will be useless. Would this be the correct order of commands: sas2flsh -o -e 6 sas2flsh -o -f 2118it.bin (the guide says to use this command: sas2flsh -o -f 2118it.bin -b mptsas2.rom) sas2flsh -listall If the commands are correct, then after the sas2flsh -listall I assume my controller will be listed look like this below, with zeros or nothing under x86-BIOS: C:\SAS2FLSH.EXE -listall Adapter Selected is a LSI SAS: SAS2008(B2) Num Ctlr FW Ver NVDATA x86-BIOS PCI Addr ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0 SAS2008(B2) 20.00.04.00 14.01.00.08 07.39.00.00 00:01:00:00 Finished Processing Commands Successfully. Exiting SAS2Flash. If all this holds true can I shutdown, move the controller to my unRAID server, attach my SAS to SATA breakout cables, connect my HDDs and boot unRAID OS? Thanks in advance for any confirmations, corrections or advice.

I use a cache drive but I don't have mover enabled for anything. I like to move things myself once or twice a week. Is there any reason I couldn't turn on Turbo Write before I manually move from cache to array and then turn it off after I'm done? No need to state the obvious reason that it requires more user effort.

Could someone kindly clarify if Preclear Disk (BETA) is functional with UnRAID version 6.1.9? Thanks in advance.
