Unraid 14th Birthday Case Badge Giveaway
I have been using Unraid for about five years for work (with my own license for about three years). I have a hard time remembering my life before I learned of Unraid. I have always been a Data Hoarder at heart, but did it chaotically. Setting up RAID arrays have always caused me anxiety, purely for the fact that if I make a mistake, I can loose all the data (since it is striped). When I learned of Unraid and its use for data, virtualization and the built in docker support, it was obvious what I will use for my own server. Happy Birthday Unraid!

** VIDEO GUIDE ** How to Setup and Configure a Reverse Proxy on unRAID with LetsEncrypt & NGINX
I followed this video as shown to get Let's Encrypt to run on my server with my own domain. It works well for my docker containers! One thing that I am not clear about how to do is to point one sub domain (that I already have gotten a certificate for) to a VM which has an instance of GitLab running. It was the only thing that I had exposed to web before setting up this reverse proxy and would like to still be able to access it from a subdomain. Your help to achieve this would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

file browser in webui
+1 Would be very useful for sure. I am currently using Krusader, but it is not the most efficient way to do it.

Compute Share Sizes Asynchronously
Interesting... I am sure the Devs will be able to find the best way to handle this. It is a bit beyond my knowledge of how unraid tracks file changes. I just noticed that it is able to tell you that that the parity is invalid when the contents are updated outside of parity. For me, this does not work. Even opening up a new tab still waits for the operation to complete before that page loads (waiting for a connection). I will check that out... Thanks!

Compute Share Sizes Asynchronously
I made a post requesting help a few weeks ago about this issue that had no responses. However, I think this feature is beneficial. Something that has been bugging me for a while is the fact that hitting the Compute (or Compute All) button on the shares page will require the server to calculate the storage usage for that share. From my experience, this locks up the web UI while the size of the share on each disk is calculated. This tends to take a long time depending on how big the share is and will make the WebUI unresponsive. This is a massive productivity hit because I am usually only doing a compute of space if I am working on the settings of my server. This forces me to take a break and wait for the server to become responsive again. Request: If it is possible, please change the way that shares are computed, such that the calculation is done in the background (Asynchronously) and the results visible whenever they are done (maybe with a notification to let you know when it is ready). If Implemented: I do realize that calculations being made asynchronously have the potential for inaccuracy as more data may be written to disk in the meantime. Maybe have an Icon to show if the size computed is no longer valid (per drive in the results) for information. I think it would use a similar implementation that is currently used to show the orange triangle for unprotected drives. That way, we can hit computer or computer all without having to worry about the delay that it will cause my workflow. Thank you!

Cancel Compute All (in Shares)
Hi all, I accidentally hit the compute all button in the user shares section while trying to add a share (was distracted ). It locked up my unraid webgui and it is not responding (I am assuming it is trying to index all of the 15 or so TB of data I have on the disks). Is there any way to kill the process via terminal? Thanks!

I can never stop the array "Unmounting disks...Retry unmounting disk share(s)..."
Do you use ssh? I have had issues where I used screen through terminal and screen keeps accessing the array keeping it from being unmounted. Look for things that may be prevent unmounting of the array. Also, disable docker in settings and then try. Just turning them off individually may not be enough and maybe try unmounting array on its own before hitting shutdown.
