Here.

Blank. It has the buttons on the top, both the bottom (where the vms show up) is blank. Not even the loading animation. Just black.

I have a few VMs and for some reason are not pulling up anymore. It started with the vm's would work but no internet. I had to restart the server (due to a crash from rebuilding array (upgraded to larger drive)) now nothing. I am attaching my dio on this forum post to possibly help figure out the cause. I turned the vm off in settings and when I turned it back on, it said libr failed to start. I just restarted again and got the newest dio for this post. Thanks in advance for any help.. whs-diagnostics-20200203-1138.zip

I know this is a simple thing to do, but I can't figure it out. I accidentally pulled one of my array drives out (hotswap) while it was running. I was trying to pull another drive out that was an unassigned drive. Now I can't figure out how to add that drive back. I've pulled the drive and put it back (unassigned sees it) , restarted unraid, stopped the array, only thing I seen was to change the drive. Only problem is that I don't have an extra 8tb drive available to swap. Last time (by accident) I pulled a drive, it was a 4tb and I had a spare. I just swapped it and it rebuilt. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to put the same drive back. Thank you in advance.

Thanks johnnie. I was hoping it was as simple as that.. I just wish raid 6 or 5 was more reliable.. Ether way, I got it working. Thanks...

I have two drives (256gb) in my cache setup in a raid 0 (stripped). I am wanting to add two (256gb all same manufacture) more and possibly change to a raid 10. I seen a post showing that I need to disable my docker, reinstall all the dockers after and alot more steps to upgrade. If I just go with adding the drives as is, can I just stop the array and add the drives one at a time or both at once, or basically almost start over with all the dockers etc.? Another option would be replace both drives with 2 512gb drives and use it instead. Basically what I am asking is what is the best way to proceed? I know I should have went with larger drives in the beginning, but I was a Nube then. I'm just trying to figure out mt best option forward.. Thanks in advance...

I seen that you just uploaded the program and after updating, I ran the force scan all again. They are all now gone. Thank you for your help and quick update and response.. It all worked great...

Yes. That was the first thing I did. Then I restarted the server and then uninstalled then reinstalled. All the same drives etc.

I have a quick question.. (See image fore more clarity) I have drives showing up that have been removed from the server. I understand that it stays in unraid for future reference. But I have a lot. Anyway, I have just made a unused map to put them in so I won't get so confused. But I noticed that the path on some are the same. If I use the locate feature, it won't locate, another locate button acts as if it's pressed. I have restarted multiple times, with the same issue, I have even uninstalled and reinstalled to test that... If you notice, it even shows 4 parity drives with the same name (sdn). Is this just something in my setup or normal? Thanks in advance..

Please excuse me if I have overlooked this issue, but I have looked. With the original Krusader, I could copy an entire file to another backup drive that was in unassigned or where ever and it was almost full (2tb free from 6tb drive) Krusader would ask to just over write or skip same named files. With this version, if I try to copy a folder it pops up with a red X stating drive is full. I have to copy half or a third of the files at a time for it to ask me to skip or over write.. Some times it's like I have to copy A-C, then D-G etc. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Ok.. So with highwater, it will fill up until they have 1.5 remaining (last thing), right? If that's the case. I should change my warning mark to 80% instead of (I think) 70%, that way I won't be getting the warnings and it turning yellow as a warning. I was just trying to figure it out... I didn't know why It was doing what it's doing.. I know I'm still having issues with permissions. I keep getting access denied when I try to open the folders over the network.. Only some folders.. Again mainly in the media share. I can open most folders (inside media share), then some not (inside media share). I thought it may all be related. Only thing I have let access the media share is Plex. I have to run NewPerms about once every three months (sometimes every other). I did add the diagnostics just incase... Thanks again for your help... I'll getcha another beer.. whs-diagnostics-20190721-1936.zip

Oh, one more thing that may help.. If I go to integrity, disk 4 is always red. I rebuild it and with in a few days, it's back to red. Both build and export. I thought the drive may be dying (which is another reason I put a new 6tb drive in to replace it). I just checked again and it's red once more.

If you are talking about the split level or include or exclude. All the shares are as pictured. Split Level: Automatically split any directory as required Include disks: All Exclude disks: none I've looked at all the shares.. The main one that seems to be filling up though is this folder: Media.

All drives but two are 6tb. I have two 4tb ironwolves. The drive 4 was a 4tb, but I upgraded it to a 6tb. It filled up the 4tb drive to 3.5tb while two disks down (drive 6) was a 6tb drive with only 1tb data. Drive 3 only had/has 3tb on it. I used unbalance and moved everything from drive 4 before putting the 6tb drive in to replace the 4tb drive. Now I'm up to 4.51tb used. I just used unbalance to get it back down to 4tb. But back up now. I went back before posting this and looked at the shared menu and made sure none are set to only use disk 4. All are set to use all disks. If I upgrade to 10tb drives (replace both parity and drive 4) do you think it would continue?

I know this may be a crazy question, but, I have a drive that keeps filling up (drive 4). I have 12 drives and two drives are almost completely empty and disk 4 keeps going above 70%. I have used unbalance to move files off and that works, but now, all the files seems to have moved back or it's filling it up again because it's back to 70% full.. I have looked for a setting that has that drive as the main drive. I have also put a larger drive in it (largest I can put with my parity drives). Do I need to just keep moving files off or let it fill completely up and see what happens? If it gets to 100% will unraid just stop working? Just wondering..

Thanks for the reply. I can format the drive and recopy the data. I don't mind. As far as zipping the data, I wouldn't mind, but I have had issues with zipping large folders and being corrupt when unzipping. Some folders are 200+ gig. One folder is just alittle over 800gig. If there is a way to encrypt in the beginning, please let me know how. I would rather have the whole disk encrypted if possible. My only other option is to encrypt it on my workstation with bitlocker and copy 4.6tb over the network.

Please move tread if in wrong place. I have client data that I want to backup (Archive) and put on a spare drive in unassigned devices. I have already copied the data. I put the drive as xfs, which I can change and recopy if needed. But I was wondering if there was a way to encrypt the drive to help protect the data. Is there an app that I have overlooked or something I need to do in a terminal (which I have never really messed with much) which I may have just have overlooked or just not found the right page... Mainly, I just need to encrypt a drive in unassigned devices. My plan is to encrypt the drive, copy the data over, put the drive in a static bag, put that in a vacuum seal bag and seal it, put that in a hard shell hard drive shipping container, Wrap that in bubble wrap, put that in a box, put the box in a bank safety deposit box. Then do another one the same way to send it to my brother in another state and have him put it in a bank there. Am I missing anything? Thanks in advance for any advice... P.S. Yes I know it's possible overkill and I know people are going to probably make fun if everything. But if anything happens and I loose the clients backup data, my butt is on the line, not everyone else...

I did.. But I am wanting to remove my domains from the cache. It's taking up over half my cache drive. I guess I could add another cache drive, but I just didn't know how long they would stay after I switched it to no. If they stay there forever.. Then how to I remove them? Use kusader to log in and just delete?

I had a folder set to use cache and I ended up running out of space. I turned the cache off of that folder and I was just wondering how long it would stay in that folder? I have tried using the mover, but it's still there.. Does anyone know how long it will stay? Thanks in advance..

I hope you get it all fixed. I really like the ability to know where everything is as. I just updated unraid and am waiting patiently for it in the community apps. Thanks for all your hard work...

Crap.. LOL...You ever have a brain fart? lol... I didn't even think about that.. Thanks...

Does anyone know of a way to get dupeguru to scan unassigned devices? I have a drive that holds a copy of my moives just incase something happens to unraid. But I think I have copies of movies I have deleted from plex still on the drive and also movies I have upgraded (bought the blu-ray version) and I just wanted to clean it up. If not, my only option is to delete all the files and recopy them back.. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the delay.. I have been really busy working (trying to make enough money to upgrade my dinosaur lol.) But that didn't work.. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the plug in. As far as what you said, that makes since. But four of the drives have not been in my system in over 4 months, maybe longer. It's not that big of a deal, it's only showing in the configurations tab anyway. I'll just have to scan through all of them (40 so far. Alot more to come) to find when I add a drive to the pool. Anyway, Thanks you again for the great plug in... Also, to clarify, I put the drive in my hotswap tray and do the preclear then remove the drive from the system and put it in a static bag, label it and put it in a metal closet for future use or sell. I do that with new drives (stress test before selling it to some one) and old drives (before installing os in used computers or reinstall on customers hard drive from their computer, just to make sure it doesn't die so they can't blame me ;^) ). I kinda wish preclear was on linux for me to install on my test bench pc so I wouldn't have to use unraid all the time. But i wanted to make sure I explained what I was doing.

I have a small issue I just noticed... I have been doing alot of preclears on hard drives (to test older hard drives and make sure they are empty) and I went to Disk Location and seen I have a whole list of drives that are no longer in my system. Are they going to always be there? Reason I'm asking is I still have about 30 more drives to check. It's not that big of a deal. It just seems like they just started staying there. I don't remember drives staying in the past.. Thanks in advance for any information...

I got it figured out (I think). But I was trying to add it to the array, but it wasn't showing up at all in the array or unassigned devices.. It showed the drive in preclear but only as _ and showed the size. When I tried to start preclear, it showed the white page with nothing but "unable to start device". I restarted the server a few times and atleast now it shows the drive in unassigned devices for me to preclear just to make sure the drive is still good. I know I don't need to do preclear, but I always run atleast 5 runs of erase and clear so if it will fail under pressure (which I have had two new drives and one used drive die during preclear) preclear will push it and die before adding it to the array.. I don't know if it is completly fixed yet, but so far it's picking up different drives. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.. Thanks Squid for everything you do for Unraid and this community.. whs-diagnostics-20190619-2055.zip
