Interesting. Well we shall see if I can fix this at all. Threadripper passthrough is such a pain in the ass.

Resurrecting this topic, mb9023, are you still having issues? I'm having very similar issues with my rx580 - even down to unraid periodically not recognizing the gpu and having to reseat it.

I have a Fatal1ty board and a TR 1920X and just ran into the same issue. And it looks like it was cause by windows updates? Have you resolved??

Thanks for the response testdasi! It is a freeze. Fans are running, system looks to be functional but there is no access to the webgui or any of the applications running, or the samba shares. I have not tested whether there is graphics output of the unraid command line, but I don't anticipate it showing. I either have to do a hard shutdown or hit the physical restart button, which also works. Follow on question to the libvirt and docker images. What settings should I be looking at specifically? Is it because it's trying to move those files onto the array but they already exist on the disk in the array? Should I copy them off the unraid machine, delete them, then put them back on the array in the right position?

Just a bump here. Crash happened again and no help from syslog. Also crashed at a different time (about 6p yesterday) so it's not because of some nightly process that is having issues. I'm really thinking best bet would be to just replace it all unless someone has any ideas...

Ok so I apologize for the long winded story - I'm gonna dive into a little background. Been using unraid for a few years now, I'd say I'm an intermediate user. I have always had a mobo/cpu/ram from either my old gaming rig, or a friend's hand me down server hardware. Currently I'm running an X8DTH supermicro motherboard with dual x5650 cpus and 16gb of ram (more backstory to the ram incoming). I use my server to host tv shows and movies via plex over chromecast, 24/7 video recording from two security cameras via zoneminder, run a couple VMs for windows and linux, run an rsnapshot to an offsite unraid server that I installed at my brother's, and I'm starting to experiment with homeassistant and smart home devices. Here's where my problem comes in. The server runs great when it's running, but it won't run consistently for more than one to three days now. I thought the initial culprit was the ram, but I ran a Memtest from the unraid boot options and it passed. My friend gave me 28gb of ram (he's very generous), and I could only get 16gb of it to work together at one time. The motherboard may have some dead ram slots, or I'm not installing the ram into the proper slots...I don't know. But I expected the ram to be the issue. I've read the syslog i've attached, and can't find anything that resembles an error around the last time that it was running. The last crash that happened seems to have occurred after 4:00am on April 4th, and I restarted the machine this afternoon around 5:30p - I was gone all day on the 4th. I did make sure to set it up to persist the syslogs onto the flash. I've also attached the diagnostics file - that should have a wealth of information - again I can't find anything that I think helps me there. Finally, I've attached the extended scan from fix common problems, again not much help. It mentions a bunch of filename issues that windows might have a problem with, probably not causing my issue. My plan is to replace everything but the hard drives and upgrade, but before I spend $800 I want to see if this fantastic community can help me solve the mystery! nas-diagnostics-20200405-2002.zip syslog Extended scan fix common problems.txt

I know this is a very old thread but I wanted to share how I successfully installed and utilized the brother HL-2300D USB printer with cups in the unraid docker. I downloaded the package installer for Debian Linux, the one that is zipped into a .gz file, from Brother's downloads page. This installer also has instructions for installation. I put the gz file into the config directory of the docker, went into the docker terminal, and installed the printer following the instructions provided by brother. Then I went into cups, selected add printer, and there it was. Now in the drop down for drivers there was one for the HL-2300D, so I selected that. Works like a charm! It's a good thing too because I bought the printer thinking it was a wireless printer. Now it is!

Well if that's your problem I hope they get that fixed. They look like nice cameras. My system is built on regular desktop gaming hardware, and i know it would have a real hard time trying to process that 5MP video looking for motion. There's a 640x320 sub stream I would use for motion detection. Then link that camera to a high res stream from the same camera marked NoCord and link it. Works really well

Well what else do you have running on your server and your network? What kind of cameras do you have? Wired or wireless? It took me a while to adjust my cameras and zones to settings that my processor could handle. Are you trying to process full resolution video for motion, or are you using the cameras secondary low resolution stream for that? Mine has that and I have to use it

Have you checked your processor load? When I was first setting up my two cameras I had to change the resolution and shrink the zones on the feeds I was using for motion detection to reduce the load on the processor. Also this last week I had a Vm take up too much processor power and it screwed up my zoneminder instance (apis wouldn't connect to zmninja).

Ahhhh. I see my error. I didn't realize we already HAD access to the Application Support folder. Perfect! I added a Profiles folder in appdata/Plex Media Server/Application Support/Plex Media Server/ and can put different profiles in there! Thanks for the quick turnaround

Hoping to bump this if there's not an answer to this already. Having the profiles available in the appdata for the docker would allow for easy direct play (no transcoding) when playing on a Chromecast. Big deal for me, and I would bet for most other people, ESPECIALLY for 4K videos.

Ok I re-read the first post on this thread, and decided that I needed to change the name of my 'zoneminder_states.cron' file to just 'cron'. Is that what you meant? Also that still didn't work.

AH! Wow, I thought about that for a long time and didn't get that. Ok so I wrote the following .cron file (named zoneminder_states.cron). # Cron script for changing zoneminder states # Monday to Friday operation 30 4 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Come&Go 0 7 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Daytime 0 16 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Come&Go 30 17 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Daytime 0 21 * * 1-5 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Nighttime # Saturday and Sunday operation 0 8 * * 0,6 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Daytime 0 22 * * 0,6 /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl Nighttime It is placed in the /mnt/user/appdata/Zoneminder folder. I restarted Zoneminder, and surprise, didn't work out. Am I using the right directory /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl?

@dlandon I've FINALLy gotten time to try to get this running, and for the life of me cannot determine what first post you're talking about here. Where do I go to tell the docker what crontab entries to create when it starts??

Yeah does sound like what I need. I'm using rsnapshot, I guess I could write a script that sends the rsnapshot log file to me, and then deletes it or something. But in general, it would be nice to have the cronjobs, whatever they may be, follow the same notification settings in unraid - I think that's what the original thread was about.

BUMP. Setting up a regular backup of my servers and would like a cronjob email to my regular email, just like my statuses get sent to. Anybody know??

Tried to test it out tonight and realized the docker didn't get an update. Did you mean this will be part of the next regular update of the docker? Or am I just confused...

What a turnaround! Ill test tonight after work!

You are seriously awesome, i really appreciate you being so responsive. Let me know if there is some fancy way to run that script straight from unraid without you modifying the docker image.

Best i can find. https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Modifying_ZoneMinder_to_remember_run_state_names

It changes the running state of zoneminder. Zoneminder allows for the saving of multiple running states, for the purpose of having different cameras running at different times of day. Myself, I would use it to set all my cameras on motion detection at like 9pm daily, and change it to motion detection for only cameras in the front of my house during the day while the dogs are in the backyard. But whats also nice is it would allow any script run in unraid to manipulate the running state of zoneminder automatically just by calling the zmpkg.pl file and naming the running state. Like a security system on a raspberry pi, or something like that.

How do i go about running it with a crontab script? I know so little about dockers and how they work its not funny.

Here's a listing of files in my usr/bin directory. No sign of zmpkg.pl. I've scoured the unraid directories extensively and haven't found it anywhere. The "find" command has no luck either. Should I attempt a reinstall? I'm running Zoneminder v1.30.4, on unraid v6.4.0. And I'm pretty sure the docker is up to date. usr-bin zoneminder.txt

Dlandon, First off, thank you for all your work on this so docker. I've been spending the last week or so getting it up and running and it works beautifully. I'm getting to the point where I'd like to schedule camera modes, and have found that the recommended way to do this is with a line in the crontab file, like the following: 0 05 * * * /usr/local/bin/zmpkg.pl Daytime The issue is the zmpkg.pl file doesn't exist when installed as a docker in unraid. Is it possible you could add it to the /mnt/user/appdata/Zoneminder/Control folder? Does it exist within the docker image?
