    [SUPPORT] SmartPhoneLover - Vorta (GUI for Borg Backup)

    in Docker Containers

    Posted

    Great tool, thanks for your work on this.

     

    I'm a long time Borg user but never really liked managing it all through scripts and have tested that I can migrate my existing backups into this Vorta docker quite easily which is great!

     

    One thing I'm keen to do and looking for the author's or others guidance is getting the results into the Unraid syslog server, as having to open the interface and check the log of each profile for success or failure is not sustainable.

     

    In my existing scripts for borg, I send a mesage based on the output code to the Unraid syslog and I will explore doing that here but a proper capability within Vorta or this container would be great. I will also raise this as a feature request with Vorta.

     

    Interested in ideas though, I will try and post messages to the systlog from within the docker using the post command line but keen to hear ideas around this or if people have a better way.

    Thanks for the response Andrew, that fixed it, I could not find that setting anywhere and all resources pointed to changing the system time.

     

    One more question I'm hoping you can help with. I use Splunk as a syslog server and so setup both TCP and UDP port 514 Data Inputs but it seems that these data inputs were lost so I'm guessing the inputs.conf file is not setup to be persistent. I can of course copy this folder and map it to a persistent location using Docker but I am interested in your input as to whether I have misunderstood it or if you have a better way?


    Cheers

    Unassigned device frozen in "Uninterruptible Sleep"

    in General Support

    Posted

    Hi All,

     

    I'm having this issue the last few months where either 1 of my 2 Unassigned device backup drives are locking up and nothing but a dirty unmount and/or reboot will resolve.

     

    In the GUI, on the Main tab, the Unassigned Devices section just keeps loading and never finally loads, on the Dashboard it shows a single core maxed out but this is not the case in HTOP from the terminal. The drive that has locked is no longer available to view/use.

     

    In the Terminal, running HTOP and sorting by State shows a few processes in the D (Uninterruptible Sleep) state that will stay that way for days if left alone so I assume forever. These are:

    - /bin/df /dev/sdb1 --output=size,used,avail

    - hdparm -C /dev/sdb

    - find /mnt/disks/ST4000 -noleaf -maxdepth 4

    - smartctl -x /dev/sdb

     

    This problem has occurred on both of my connected USB drives and for both I have run full Smart diagnostics and not found issues. The issue occurs every 4 to 8 days and I thought it was cause by Duplicati but I have stopped all local backups and the issue persists (previously the Duplicati Docker also locked in D state as it tried to use the drive). The only way I can resolve is manually shutting down the array and then doing a hard reset as the system will not reboot.

     

    I've searched for others having similar issues and have had no luck so anyone that can assist, I'd be very grateful for.

     

    Cheers
