  1. ok. thanks. I will double check the memory to see if any finding.
  2. Thanks for the quick reply. However I am a bit lost that why I have to run memtest? BTW, in the boot menu of unRAID I have run memtest before, it may take about 40mins and over without any error. How could I let it run for 24 hours? Best Regards, Alex
  3. Hello, Today I did parity check again and still found 51 errors by the end. Since last parity check I don't have any unsafe shutdown. SMART data are all green. Should I worry about this or this is somehow normal? Diagnostics info attached. Thanks. Best Regards, Alex unraid-diagnostics-20171023-2139.zip
  4. Thanks for the reply. That's due to a hang situation of unRAID after I started up a Win10 VM. I had to hardly reboot the tower. I am in a pre-release version so it might be not stable as the stable version. Will try to avoid this in the future.
  5. Hello, I am new to unRAID. Yesterday I noticed that the parity check is finished with 13 errors (the previous one 3~5 days before was finished w/o error). All disks are green in my array. I checked SMART data in all disks for 5, 196. 197, 198, and 199 and all healthy. Should I be worry about the parity check report or not? Attached is the diagnostic file. Thanks.

  6. I can see about adding pstack to the dev pack. It requires a too many dependencies for here. And most are already in the dev pack. Thanks! Good to know at least we have a plan to add it in the future.
  7. Hello, is it possible to add gstack? When I boot my virtual machines it sometimes just hanging on Windows Logo, and qemu-system-x86_64 is using 100% cpu all the time. I think a stack call trace by gstack might help a lot to troubleshoot this kind of issue. Best Regards, Alex
  8. Hello guys, I am new for unRAID and still in the trail license. (I watched the videos from spaceinvader one for quite some time, however). Basically my machine is Intel Core 4790K + ASUS Maximums VII + RX480/580, which I see some success stories in our forum. With PCIe ACS override, I can passthrough my RX480/580 with my Intel IGP to the windows VM (one, win7 64, one win10 64) without any problem. My unRAID version is 6.4.0-rc8q. As I have four cores (8 threads) so I reserve one core for unRAID and assign rest of 3 cores (6 threads) to VM as I don't start up multiple VM in the same time. The strange thing is that it is very likely the Windows VM start-up will be hanging in the windows logo, and the CPUs assigned to VM just stay with 100% utilization. In ssh, htop I can see the CPU are used by qemu-system-x86_64 KVM processes. I tried to generate a call stack with the process, but I find no gstack utility is delivered with unRAID installation... Based on my limited knowledge of Linux, I assume this should be some spin contention code in KVM due to whatever reason. I attach the diagnostics archive as below. unraid-diagnostics-20170927-1907.zip How I work around the issue: Just like the instruction or video said, windows VM might be not able to boot when doing the installation. Change to one core sovles the problem. For me, I just reduce the cores (threads) from 3/6 to 2/4 or 1/2 then VM can boot without any problem. Once it is started, if I changed the VM configuration back to 3/6, sometimes it works, but most of time it doesn't boot. So my questions, 1. Is this a known issue, or due to some improper configuration of my machine? 2. How to install gstack and other system utility in unRAID, e.g. like apt-get or something else? Thank you. Best Regards, Alex
  9. if you still have 5.25' slot maybe you want to check icy dock's option like this? https://www.amazon.com/ICY-DOCK-Mobile-Comparable-Tray-less/dp/B01M0BIPYC/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1496551681&sr=1-2&keywords=icy+dock+2.5+enclosure
