  1. High everyone, I tried following @SpaceInvaderOne's steps from his video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWT4oOz2VK8 I am doing all of this from my girlfriend's 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7 It seems her version of Mac OS is too old to even make the High Sierra image bootable : when I open the "Install creator", I select the image and the destination but when I click the button it doesn't do anything. No prompt, nothing. How can I get the image to be bootable then please? Thank you in advance.
  2. I think it's redirected though? I just tried to go to myip:444 on my smartphone not through WiFi so as to access from outside the network. But it does not work either.
  3. I'm trying to setup my Nextcloud to work with Letsencrypt. (disclaimer : I am very new to this. Willing to learn but the learning curve seems a bit steep...) The problem I am facing is that I have forwarded the needed ports in my router and setup everything as explained in this video : Yet, I cannot access my Nextcloud. In the logs of Letsencrypt, there is the following content : I've read different posts on different websites and I think I am supposed to add a file or folder somewhere but I didn't understand what and where (it was related to a folder named something along "well-known acme") When trying to access nextcloud from outside the network, I am getting a timeout error. Could you please help me out? I'm having a hard time figuring out what this means and what I'm supposed to do to solve it. Thank you in advance
  4. Okay but I dont understand why when I create a new docker image it goes to the cache disk since I have set the app data to go to the appdata for which I have disabled the cache. Is it related to this path? If so, where should it be?
  5. I might be doing this wrong but... I don't seem to be able to free the space from the cache drive. Here are the steps I went through : I stopped my Docker apps (I only have 3). I went to the settings ==> Docker ==> disabled Docker. Deleted the Docker Image Tried to invoque the Mover
  6. I am very interested in this feature as well! But apparently none of the topics similar to yours have received any answer... like this one :
  7. You are right! Apparently it's the Docker image that's filling all this space. How can I get it out of that disk? None of my Docker containers require fast storage and I'd rather have these 32 GB of cache than a super-fast loading drive monitoring Docker container ? I'll try to set my user shares properly then! Thank you!
  8. Hello everyone I'm facing two issues with my unRAID cache SSD. It's a 32GB SSD I had bought to use as a cache-drive with Intel's SRT (or RST, I always mix them up) for my 2TB drive in my Windows computer. But now I'm trying to use it as a cache drive for my unRAID drive array and for some reason : it's already almost full at launch, before writing anything to the array : Say I'd like to write large files to my array from my other computer. It will start writing at good speeds (thanks to the SSD) until it is full and the copying will simply stall, instead of going slowly at regular HDD write speeds. Any clue why it's acting like this?
  9. Hello everyone, I'm having a slightly different issue. When I access the community app library to browse it, it takes a VERY long time to load the first page (about 2 minutes). Alternatively, I get this error message : This persisted when passing from 6.4.1 to 6.5 (stable) Switching to legacy mode didn't change a thing. Previously, it used to take only one or two seconds to load the same page.
  10. Alright! Thank you for your reply. Hum... So there is basically no other solution right?
  11. Hello everyone, I've seen a few (very) old topics including statements that a share size limit was under development. Yet, I have not found this feature in my new (and first) unRAID system. Time Machine is great because it is very simple to setup. But the problem is that it only overwrites old backups with new ones when there is not enough space left to write a new one without overwriting old ones. So this means it could potentially fill-up all the disks of the share. Of course you can setup a minimum free space but this is not really what I'm looking for since the disk is also used by other shares. How can I limit the size without having to plan on how I use the free space of the disk? Thank you
  12. Hey, that just did the trick! Thanks a lot @matthope! I'm running a very light setup right now, with just a G4560 on a Z170 Pro Gaming AC motherboard, 8GB of RAM and a USB 3.0 extension card. Nothing to brag about but thanks to you it's now working just fine
  13. Hi @matthope, Thank you for your tutorial. I am very new to unRAID, to Linux too. I'm quite confused about my Syslinux file. Here is what mine looks like : default menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append vfo-pci.ids=1912:0014 initrd=/bzroot label unRAID OS GUI Mode kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest Am I supposed to make it like this? It didn't boot when applied so I had to go back to the above. default menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append vfo-pci.ids=1912:0014 initrd=/bzroot append pcie_acs_override=downstream vfio-pci.ids=8086:a170 modprobe.blacklist=i2c_i801,i2c_smbus label unRAID OS GUI Mode kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest Thank you in advance!
  14. Okay I might have found what was wrong. For some reason, I had not set the correct VirtIO driver folder location in the "VM Manager" settings. The iso did however show up when creating a VM which lead me to thinking that was fine. I had noticed that the interfces were set to IDE but for some reason changing them manually to SATA would (at that time) prevent me from booting the VM. I now have set the correct iso folder location in the VM Manager and now several things have changed : when creating a VM the interface settings are already on "SATA" The VM boots no problem I can install Windows on the disk once the virtio drivers are installed. Thanks anyway @bonienl
  15. Thank you for your quick help. I have indeed already install the vritio drivers from viostor, which is why the disk now shows up. But for some reason Windows will not let me install W10 on this disk
  16. Hello eveyone, I am getting this error message when I want to install Windows 10 on a VM. I installed the Virtio drivers (the ones for windows 10) which made the disk show up but then now I can't go on and start the setup. The text in french reads "Windows cannot be installed on this disk. This may be because the hardware does not support booting from this disk. Check the disk controller of this disk is activated in the BIOS menu of your computer." What am I doing wrong? I don't get it
  17. Hello everyone, I am very new to unRAID. I'm running it on a G4560 (which supports VT-d) on an MSI Z170 Gaming Pro AC motherboard in the UEFI of which I have enabled vritualization. I have a Windows VM set up to work but I'm having a hard time passing a PCI-Express USB card I bought from AliExpress. The card has a Renesas Technology Corp. uPD720201 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev 03). It is detected by unRAID in the System Devices I watched @gridrunner 's super video tutorial about how to list the different USB buses and IOMMU groups. However, there is something I must be doing wrong. The first script lists the USB buses and devices as below : The USB bus I definitely would like to pass through is the number 4, which represents the two front panel USB ports. I suspect that the number 3 is the 2 rear USB ports of the same PCI card but even when I connect a USB key to these ports it doesn't show up. When I run the second script @gridrunner shared in his video, here is what shows up : So the code I inserted inside the Flash drive's config is : vfo-pci.ids=1912:0014 Which makes the Flash config : default menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append vfo-pci.ids=1912:0014 initrd=/bzroot label unRAID OS GUI Mode kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest (by the way, it's nice that the USB controller supports reset I guess) Yet, I can't pass through the PCI device in my Windows 10 VM's settings, and I can't see USB devices in the VM's explorer when I connect them. I have already tried to update the drivers of the USB controller but Windows says the ones already installed are already up-to-date. Here's a screenshot of the Device Manager in Windows : The USB controller shows up but I can't detect any USB device plugged in when I go to the file explorer. I just tried switching to QC35-2.9 instead of i440fx because the Help reads that QC35 may handle PCI-E devices better than i440fx. But maybe that was a wrong move? I'm really lost and since I'm new to this the only thing I can do is search for people who've encountered the same problem but I can't really find any. So to summarize : Problem 1 : USB devices only show up in unRAID if plugged in the front USB ports, not in the back USB ports I don't have any PCI device to check in the Windows VM settings, only the USB devices plugged in the front USB ports Even though the Flash config was editted to pass the USB controller through, I can't really use it in my Windows VM for some reason. Could you please help me? Thank you in advance.
  18. Hello everyone, I am very new to unRAID as well as to Linux. I would like to make my printer useable by both my Windows and my GF's Macbook on the network. I've already setup the CUPS docker, and the test page print works fine. But I have no idea as to how to get the computers on the network to "see" the printer so as to add it as the default printer for them. I believe the problem comes from Samba but I have no clue about how to get unRAID to share my CUPS's printer on the network. I'm really sorry about how simple this may be once you know how to do it... But I've pretty much tried my best to find the solution by myself before posting here. Thank you very much in advance.
  19. Hi! I'm sorry for updating this thread after it remained inactive for quite some time but I just wanted to thank @Robbie Ferguson for this tool he created. This helped me choose which drive I should select as parity drive and what size my PSU should be not to be either oboxiously overkill nor underpowered. I'm totally new to unRAID an the only NAS I've been using until now is my Synology DS213J so... switching to unRAID is quite a large hop in several regards, and such small but handy tools make my life easier!
