  1. The mathematics of RAID-6 https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hpa/raid6.pdf
  2. Correct me if I am wrong, as far I am aware unRAID does not have Real-time Mover? That would be cool feature. Once a file has been copied to a cache and then instantly move to array.
  3. To have all the disks spin up is defeating the purpose of having a unRAID license IMO. I would be happy pay extra for a dual parity feature
  4. The reason is not working for you because you are using BetaQuasi VMDK file? Instead of VMDK, change to PLOP - Boot to unRAID USB via PLOP unRAID Guest. See information here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=40679.0 The advantage of using PLOP is you can use unRAIDs (v6) built in OS Update. If I were you, I would take a take a screenshot of your webGui Main page and Make a backup of your USB Flash device. Then format your USB, use PLOP VM and fresh unRAID 6 install.
  5. I think cheaper option is to buy three 10GB Ethernet cards and build your own switch using pfsense. I am not sure if that will work.
  6. Does it work on unRaid 6.0 final? Need confirmation first
  7. Shout-Irc Docker: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=37209 - Network: freenode - Server: chat.freenode.org - Ports: 6667, 7000 (SSL) - Channel: #unraid
  8. If I set Security to Public on the NFS setting, I then have Read and Write permission. Changing Security back to Private with the rule: 192.168.1.12(rw) then Only Read is set. Look like a bug in 6.0
  9. After upgrading to unRAID 6 (fresh install), I no longer have a write permission on the NFS mount. on the Media share setting in unRAID, NFS rule: 192.168.1.12(rw) on Linux VM, I have executed the following command: sudo mount 192.168.1.11:/mnt/user/Media/ /mnt/unraid/ I can see all my files on /mnt/unraid/ I have checked it has been mounted: 192.168.1.11:/mnt/user/Media/ on /mnt/unraid type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.11) When I try to create a dir: cd /mnt/unraid/Movies/ mkdir testing Then I get an error: mkdir: cannot create directory ‘testing’: Read-only file system Edit: on unRAID I executed this command: root@Tower:/mnt/user/Media# exportfs -v /mnt/user/Media 192.168.1.12(ro,async,wdelay,root_squash,no_subtree_check,fsid=100,sec=sys,ro,root_squash,no_all_squash) It showing ro which should be rw? However, when I look open /etc/exports "/mnt/user/Media" -async,no_subtree_check,fsid=100 192.168.1.12(rw)
  10. That is a great news. I think that would solve VPN issue. Currently many dockers with an app with VPN built in.
  11. Does docker containers mean like apps? so basically many apps in the docker.img file?

    Docker vs VM

    Interesting read: http://www.boycottdocker.org
  13. Right now, no as it would require some work to get nzbget to be correctly secured via the VPN tunnel. Ah I see, I think I will stick with NZBGet + VPN on a VM im not saying it wont happen, just that its not "top of the pops" for me right now :-), needs a few interested parties also, trying to steer away from developing docker images for individuals, i hope you understand. Bungy (jshridha) has already done a version of NZBGet with VPN functionality based on your deluge VPN. It works very well too. Probably best not to duplicate effort.... Yep, I have tried, it work really well NZBGet with VPN. Only downside is that NZBGet docker (Bungy) installed with Python 3 which mean most of popular NZBGet scripts will fail. I requested him to downgrade to Python 2, lets see
  14. Is there any chance you could downgrade Python from version 3 to 2 on Nzbgetvpn? I use some scripts in Nzbget like Subliminal and VideoSort, it is not compatible with Python 3. Thanks
  15. Right now, no as it would require some work to get nzbget to be correctly secured via the VPN tunnel. Ah I see, I think I will stick with NZBGet + VPN on a VM
  16. @binhex Is there a way for NZBGet to connect to VPN?
  17. Up to here is what I would expect. Not sure what I understand what you are trying to achieve here? What you have specified should work but it will end up with all the files that were originally on disk2 now on disk1 and vice versa. I would have expected you to be copying the contents of disk1/t back to the reformatted disk2 to get back the files that were originally there? Is that what you are trying to achieve or have I missed something? The original contents of disks2 will need to go back to the reformatted disk2 If you re-read my post, I am copying all the contents from Disk1 to Disk2/t and then Disk1 will be formatted (XFS). Disk2 then will be copied to Disk1 (new format XFS) Format Disk2 Then copy everything from Disk1 to Disk2 excluding "t" folder.. That mean I will have original contents in Disk1 and Disk2.
  18. I've just upgraded to unRAID 6.0 with a fresh install. I only have 3 disks: 2TB Party 2TB Disk1 2TB Disk2 - I have deleted some files from Disk2 to free up some space - Created a t dir in Disk2 - [in Progress] Right now I am copying all the files from Disk1 to Disk2 (rsync -arv /mnt/disk1 /mnt/disk2/t) - Once it has been completed, I will format Disk1 to XFS - Copy everything from Disk2 to Disk1 (using rsync command) - Format Disk2 to XFS - Copy all the files from Disk1 excluding t dir to Disk2 - on Disk 1, move /mnt/disk1/t/ to /mnt/disk1/ Is this good step?
  19. Interesting thread.. I might consider purchasing SyncBack. How did you setup the Backup share on unRAID and what are the split level?
  20. I will be moving to PLOP now because unRAID 6.0 allow you to use Update feature..
  21. How about adding dm-cache support? http://visa.cs.fiu.edu/tiki/dm-cache
  22. I think next version of unRAID is dual parity must have. I also think Tom need to find a way to increase parity speed? Possibly using CPU parity calculating instruction. I think this can be done via "Parity flag", see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_flag
  23. on your PC, do you save your data on "My Documents"? If you store on the network, do you use unRAID for that? I assume you mount "My Documents" to unRAID share.
  24. I am planning to upgrade unRAID 6.0 on weekend. I dont think I am going to dump ESXi. I have a few VMs on ESXi: Unraid, Plex Media Servers, Ubuntu VM, and Windows 7 VM What the performance different if I run Plex Media Servers on Docker via unraid instead of VM on ESXi? For example: VM Unraid -> Docker -> Plex Server VM Ubuntu - > Plex Server I think "VM Ubuntu - > Plex Server" much faster performance.
