Yes that is right 32 gb or ram and the 850 evo is actually 500 gb. (About 400 free) Yes this share is using the cache disk. I verified that. When I go from Unraid to Windows this is what it looked like. The windows was not using the ram disk in this instance but it seems like I get the same thing either way. My Windows PC only has 16 GB or ram in it if that matters.

So I created a RAM disk using SoftPerfect. Here is what happens It transfers at about 1 GB/s for about half of the file then suddenly falls off to 80 MB/s. This was about a 5.75 GB file and I used a 6GB ram disk. So it seems to work half way through but then suddenly it reverts to Gigabit speeds.

Is there a way to tell if it is filling up the ram cache or ssd cache buffer?

so for creating a ram disk what does this entail. I created on one the Windows pc that is about 2.5 GB. Should i just transfer files to this from the unraid server. I did this and I was getting about 140 MB/s

All of these settings seemed to be set like you said except mine was 9014 rather than 9000 and the Unraid was blank so i made it match. I used 192.168.10.x rather than the 10.10.10.x but this is different from my 1 Gb network so I think it would be ok.

I have 8 files in the folder i am copying. All between 5 and 10 gb. I tried just doing the 10 gb one and it did the same thing where it copied for a little bit at 300 MB/s then dropped to 80 MB/s

What settings do you need to know. here is my tool diagnostics log file. Not sure if that would help or give you what you need to know. obviously the windows side is not included in this. finalizer-diagnostics-20180401-1649.zip

I am getting the expected speed (about 250-300 MB/s) for about 10 seconds but then it goes down to 80 MB/s. Edit: So it seems to be working kind of. If I transfer 1 or 2 files at a time then it hits the 400MB/s no problem. When I did a folder that was 56GB in size it worked for a couple of seconds at 300 MB/s but then eventually dropped to 80 and stayed at 80. Is this really what is supposed to happen or is there something I am missing where it is getting throttled somehow.

Yes i mapped the ip address and assigned ip's for both cards on a different network. I am not sure how to enable jumbo packets Server listening on 5201 ----------------------------------------------------------- Accepted connection from 192.168.10.190, port 54292 [ 5] local 192.168.10.192 port 5201 connected to 192.168.10.190 port 54294 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 5] 0.00-1.00 sec 985 MBytes 8.26 Gbits/sec [ 5] 1.00-2.00 sec 1022 MBytes 8.58 Gbits/sec [ 5] 2.00-3.00 sec 1.00 GBytes 8.61 Gbits/sec [ 5] 3.00-4.00 sec 1023 MBytes 8.58 Gbits/sec [ 5] 4.00-5.00 sec 1.00 GBytes 8.61 Gbits/sec [ 5] 5.00-6.00 sec 1019 MBytes 8.55 Gbits/sec [ 5] 6.00-7.00 sec 1.00 GBytes 8.62 Gbits/sec [ 5] 7.00-8.00 sec 1015 MBytes 8.51 Gbits/sec [ 5] 8.00-9.00 sec 1013 MBytes 8.50 Gbits/sec [ 5] 9.00-10.00 sec 1021 MBytes 8.56 Gbits/sec [ 5] 10.00-10.04 sec 37.3 MBytes 8.41 Gbits/sec - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 5] 0.00-10.04 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec sender [ 5] 0.00-10.04 sec 9.98 GBytes 8.54 Gbits/sec receiver ----------------------------------------------------------- Server listening on 5201 ----------------------------------------------------------- Here is what i got for iperf

I just installed two ASUS XG-C100C 10G Network Adapter PCI-E cards (one on my windows PC and one on my Unraid server) I ran CAT6a cable between the two (100 ft cable) I both seem to be recognized ok but when I go to transfer the files I am only getting 80 MB/s. I was hoping to get something more around 300-400 MB/s. Is there something I should be doing different?

so on the first one how do you know when it is an external issues vs failing disk issue. is it the number of sectors? what is typically acceptable and is there anysthing to do to salvage it. although i don't know if i can trust it now out of concern that it will fail on me.

ok. on my other server today i now have an error on one of its drives as well i just started using unraid but seems strange to see these errors on these disks. i guess i never had anything really scanning them but is there something i can do better. the toshiba drive doesn't seem very old executer-diagnostics-20180331-1458.zip

Here is the diagnostics files. The SMART scan for the Toshiba drive never finished. It had been running for over 20 hours (and probably the last 6 or 8 hours at 90%) so I stopped it. finalizer-diagnostics-20180331-1325.zip

i am still waiting for it to finish the smart scan. it has been on 90% for a couple of hours now

Well I looked into it a little more. It may not have been as bad as I thought It looks like my CPU went up 4%-5% when I was running pihole which seems like quite a bit for what it is doing though.

Last night my 2nd parity disk came up with 302 errors. I am currently running a SMART extended test on it and I will post it once it is complete. What should I be looking for as far as determining whether to replace it or fix the issues? Is there anything else I can post to help determine this?

When I use pihole my cpu usage goes way up. is this normal?

Well so I made the database using the command line but when i try to find the database in my appdata/influxdb folder it is not there; but it is there when i use SHOW DATABASE from the command line. Edit: Nevermind I also figured this out. My home-assistant had to point to my IP address rather than localhost. Then it was created in my appdata/influxdb

Sorry i am still learning but how do you command line into a docker? Edit: Nevermind I figured it out.

Ok so here is what I am trying to do even though I am sure it is unecessary. I am trying to monitor how many days are left on my let's encrypt cert. So I came across this forum but it requires a script that someone wrote. https://community.home-assistant.io/t/sensor-to-show-expiry-date-of-ssl-certificate/13479 So I am kind of unsure where to put this script file to get it to run from home-assistant. @trurl I would suggest trying home-assistant sometime. I started with the basic stuff but have branched out over about a year and half of using it.

Is there a way to create a blank database. I am trying to set this up with Home-Assistant but it requires the database to be setup already and I can't figure out how to do this in InfluxDB Docker. I tried the following in terminal but it didn't create a database. $ docker run --rm -e INFLUXDB_DB=home_assistant influxdb /init-influxdb.sh

I am trying to add a script that can be called from the command line but not sure where I should add this script file. I understand there is a user scripts plugin and I have used this and it is great however I am trying to run a script from Home Assistant through a command line and I don't think this plugin would work with that. Where should I add my script to make this work?

I was thinking this line would move everything from Daily0 to Daily1 and make them links and then from then on everything would get passed with mv as a link but obviously I am wrong because it is not doing this.

I am trying to use rsync to make a local backup of my data. I would like to make incremental backups where the first folder is a full backup and then the folder will get moved as days go on keeping a hard link to the first folder. I found an article on this here: http://www.admin-magazine.com/Articles/Using-rsync-for-Backups/(offset)/2 The problem i am having is that when I seem to do the mv command it copies all the files rather than making a hard link thus I lose all my hard disk space. Any advice on what I am doing wrong. Here is my script: #!/bin/bash Source4=/mnt/user/Recordings/Test Destination1=/mnt/disks/BackupB1/Daily ##################### ### Destination 1 ### ##################### ### Source 1 ### rm -rf $Destination1/TVShows/Daily5 mv $Destination1/TVShows/Daily4 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily5 mv $Destination1/TVShows/Daily3 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily4 mv $Destination1/TVShows/Daily2 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily3 mv $Destination1/TVShows/Daily1 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily2 cp -al $Destination1/TVShows/Daily0 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily1 rsync -a --delete $Source4/ $Destination1/TVShows/Daily0/ |& logger I have also tried it with this as my last two lines but no luck: mv $Destination1/TVShows/Daily0 $Destination1/TVShows/Daily1 rsync -avh --delete --link-dest=$Destination1/TVShows/Daily1/ $Source4/ $Destination1/TVShows/Daily0/ |& logger

Well I am not even an amateur on this. Is there a good place to read up more on this. All I have right now is a duckdns. I do have my own domain though but have never set that up for websites although I don't know if this is possible to set up for websites/letsencrypt. I would like to figure this out but not sure where to start. I am sure this is outside the scope of this forum but would take any advice on where to start.
