Any feedback please?

Sorry for my ignorance but I am a new user and not totally familiar with the troubleshooting process. I am attaching the files CHBMB suggested above. Thanks again for your help guys. tower-diagnostics-20170719-2245.zip

Hi there, Yesterday, I noticed that I could not access my SMB shares from my Mac. I had a look at the Dashboard and surprisingly, I discovered that all my shares had gone. All physical disks were there, looking healthy with no errors. Same for the parity drive. All looked good, but no User Shares. After the shock, I realized that also all my Docker containers had gone and a couple of Apps I was using. The Shares were recovered after a reboot but the rest are still missing. I am running on 6.3.5 and below is the log with some Warnings and Errors. Could someone help me identify where the problem relies and how I could get things back to normal?

Thanks guys for taking the time to provide some feedback. The reason I asked in the first place I was because it seems users have mixed results with Time Machine. Some report that you should only use one single disk share rather than a user share. Also there are issues using different Allocation methods. So, just enabling AFP on a share does not really work out-of-the-box. It requires some tweaking. Russ Uno, I haven't used ccc for anything else apart from disk cloning. I checked on their website and it seems to be a pretty solid alternative to TM. I might give it a try if I reach a deadens with TM and unRAID. Thanks again

Hi everyone, I have two Mac computers both running OSX Sierra that I would like to use my unRAID server (6.3.5) as a target for time machine backups. I've read several discussions here and there with mixed results and questionable reliability. I was wondering if there is some sort of "tried and tested" or "official" resolution to this. After that, I could finally completely replace my existing Synology NAS with the unRAID, but the TM seems to be a challenging one. Cheers Nondas

Thank you so much Squid. I had issues with OS X but used Windows and worked just fine.

Hi everyone, I am running unRAID 6.3.3 and when tried to upgrade to 6.3.5 the process starts but at the end I get the following message: boot device shows 53756 free but upgrade needs 154412plugin: run failed: /bin/bash retval: 1 I presume this has to do the with the available space of the boot disk. However, I am using a 16GB flash drive, the info I get about the flash drive is the following: Boot Device Device Identification Temp. Reads Writes Errors FS Size Used Free Flash Transcend_16GB - 15.8 GB (sda) * 139 25 0 vfat 206 MB 150 MB 55.0 MB Any ideas/suggestions on hoe to tackle this issue? Many thanks in advance Nondas
