[VMs rebooting when joining a Domain]

My current solution is to join the domain from the terminal. I may need to set up a script to do this automatically when the Array starts and AD controller is active. This seems to be working, even though the UI does not show the server as joined to the domain.

[VMs rebooting when joining a Domain]

I have owned Unraid for several years now, but for the past two years I have used Synology for one main reason, I can run an AD controller as a VM on Synology and have that same NAS joined to the domain. I have attempted this in the past on Unraid and realizing again that this is a problem. If you want to run AD in a VM on Unraid, when attempting to join the domain, Unraid will restart all services causing the AD controller to go offline.

 

If anyone has a solution for this I would appreciate the help. Otherwise, maybe this needs to move to a feature request?

[NTP Time Sync issues]

I haven't been able to find an issue related to this, but I am having problems with my server holding time.

 

I am running Unraid on a Ryzen 5700g, it is domain joined, I run containers and VMs on it. I also mine chia and have had issues as the harvester will "go offline" after half a day. After bashing my head against the wall I found that the issue is related to the time on the server. Every day it loses about a minute of time and I can't figure out why.

 

When I joined AD I added my AD server as the NTP server.

so I checked if the time on the AD server was good, it was.

I checked Windows computers on my network time is good.

I checked if the BIOS time was correct, it was off by hours but the minutes/seconds were good.

I switched to [0-3].us.pool.ntp.org and NIST.

I tried manually setting the time with no NTP.

 

No matter what I have set so far time will drift on the server, normally falling behind by 1 -2 minutes per day. 

 

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

 

Thanks!
