[Preclear - Does it Remember?]

Hello,

 

I apologize if this was asked before, I couldn’t find it so here goes.

 

Im wondering if I have a spare disk right, I connect it, start the array, and run Preclear on it. Then I disconnect it, either from the Sata, or take it out altogether, and set it aside for a later date if I need to replace a failing disk. If I re-connect it and start up the array, will UNRAID remember that it’s already ran Preclear on it? Or will I need to re-do it because I disconnected it? 
 

Please advise. Thank you.

This definitely fixed my issue! Changing the Motherboard settings for C-States and Power Supply Idle Control completely stabilized my system. Thanks for the tip!

[Issues every couple days]

Hello,

 

I completed my UNRAID build a few months ago, and at first it ran fine. Great actually, for about 2 weeks. Then suddenly, it started dropping the connection every 2 days or so. Suddenly I would lose access to the GUI, the Network Shares, and my Dockers would go down. It was as if every part of UNRAID would just stop. The PC would still be on though. The only way for me to get it all back online would be to force restart the PC with the button. This would trigger a Parity Check of course when I boot it back up. I can't for the life of me figure out how to try and find the culprit, let alone how to fix it. Could someone anyone take a look at my diagnostic files and let me know if you see anything that looks like would cause this?

 

Basically I have UNRAID setup like normal, with a UBUNTU Virtual Machine that runs all my Plex Services like SabNZB, Sonarr, Radarr, and Lidarr along with qbittorrent. Besides that I have a few dockers, which are a Plex Server, and Tdarr. 

 

I have an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 4000 in the build which is passed through to the Dockers for video transcoding. Please let me know if you need any other information. Thank you.

[Nvidia-smi can't see GPU once it's passed through to a VM]

Hello all,

 

So I'm pretty good with servers and server related activities. But something keeps on eluding me, and I don't know how to fix it. So, I have a Ubuntu Virtual Machine setup for a Plex Server. I have a GPU that is being passed through to this Server for Hardware Transcoding. Before I did any of this, I installed the Nvidia drivers and installed nvidia-smi. Now, this is what I see before I start up the VM with the attached GPU.

 

All seemed fine, so I setup the VM, and passed through the GPU, and started it. Once I setup Plex, all is working fine. I can transcode using the GPU just fine, but then I noticed that I no longer can see the stats of the GPU in GPU Statistics. This is what I see

 

So I was messing around, turned the VM off, and read all sorts of stuff, and one common thing I saw was to Bind the GPU to VFIO, so I did that, rebooted my server, and now, whether the VM is started or not started, this is what I see.

 

 

I unbound the card from VFIO since it felt like I was closer before I did that. I will attach the diagnostics stuff with the GPU not bound to the VFIO.

 

So, what I want to know is, is there a way that I can Pass this GPU through to the Plex VM, and still see the GPU statistics while it's being used? I see other people doing it, but I don't know how they are doing it. My original thought is, maybe it's because they are using Plex with a Docker, but I don't want to do that. I want to use 1 VM for Plex, and another VM for the downloading/media management. Please help me haha

I am passing through a GTX 1080; no issues here.

 

I will soon be up with another VM and it will have the HD 4670 passed-through.

Hello, I am currently passing through a 1080 in my UNRAID build. If I may ask.... were you passing Audio through that HDMI channel as well? And how did you get it to work? Thanks!!

@wgstarks Genius, thank you so much for that. Instant fix for the issue I was having. Love this Forum!

@wgstarks I was wondering what path you used to get the backup script to work with your Unassigned Drive. I have a similar setup and I am using /mnt/disks/Torrents/Backups and it fails every time! I know it's something simple but everything I try doesn't work. Any thoughts?
