Cheers! Thanks for the pointer to Dynamic File Manager for 6.10.x. It worked great.

I want to completely delete all my Time Machine shares on Unraid and start Fromm scratch, but I cannot find a way to do this. There is no Delete button or function when I go into the disk setup through Shares on the Unraid interface.

Hi, I'm currently using the Unifi docker by pducharme to manage my APs. I want to change over to this docker. I currently autobackup the configuration of my controller from within the Unifi controller application itself. If I do switch, will I be able to restore the working config from my previous docker to this one using the .unf file I download from the controller? The version of Unifi I run is 5.6.37.

Understand. But I guess I'll have to reinstall because I don't have a backup of the XML file to understand what the original files were called. If I want to increase memory size of the VM without risking breakage like this, what is the best way to change the value? Manual editing of the XML? The default size is 4GB and I want 8GB.

Hi, I used spaceinvader's Macinabox to install a VM on my Unraid server that runs MacOS 10.11 "El Capitan". I installed using a Time Machine restoration to the OS vdisk. That booted properly and ran correctly first time. I performed a controlled shutdown and, using the Edit feature of the VM, changed memory from 4096MB to 8192MB. Upon restarting the VM, the system fails to boot. It flips back and forth between showing the Clover bootloader and the initial Apple logo. No progress bar is displayed and control returns to Clover after a few seconds. I attempted to restore the configuration back to 4096MB but the same problem occurs. Can someone please help me to restore operation of this machine? <!-- WARNING: THIS IS AN AUTO-GENERATED FILE. CHANGES TO IT ARE LIKELY TO BE OVERWRITTEN AND LOST.

Can ddclient be used to update OpenDNS dynamic IPs, as a replacement for the programs recommended by OpenDNS to perform that task? See https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us/articles/227987787 for an explanation of what I'm trying to accomplish.

Hi, I'm running an Unraid v6.7.1 server with a 2-disk redundant cache pool, using standard Seagate Barracuda HDDs. I want to replace both disks in the pool with Western Digital SSDs of the same size as the old HDDs. Will it be possible for me to replace both disks at the same time in one operation, following the FAQ procedure for cache disk replacement? Or must I do one at a time?

Hi, I have built an Unraid NAS using an Asus F2A85 with the following config: - AMD A8-5500 @3.2GHz - 16GB DDR3 non-ECC RAM - LSISAS9201 PCIe disk controller - Intel 82875 PCIe Ethernet controller - 6 x 2GB (4 data + 2 parity) + 2 x 0.5GB (cache) Presently I measured the actual power consumption and the system is drawing a constant 100W of power. I've been unsuccessful in reducing that power drain; I've tried a few BIOS options and Unraid plugins and setting changes but with no success. The AMD A8 is specified TPD=95W which I feel is part of my problem. I'm not skilled in configuring PCs so keep that in mind. I recently purchased a Supermicro X8SIL-F motherboard with the following config: - Intel Xenon x3440 @2.53GHz - 16 GB DDR3 ECC RAM My hope is to swap the two motherboards, while keeping the disks and peripherals intact where possible. The attraction for me to do this work is to move to a server based system with ECC memory for greater reliability using a processor with more threads for VMs. One other goal I have is to reduce the power consumption of the system to the lowest possible value, as I would like to have 24/7 availability. Measuring the power consumption of this bare system, I'm getting 72W drawn. The TPD of the Xenon is the same as the AMD. Being unfamiliar with configuring for power reduction, I know I will struggle to configure the system in a way to get power draw to the minimum. What would be a reasonable expectation for power consumption from this system? What are the things I have to do?

Cheers Squid!

How do I now take my Unraid out of legacy mode? Or is it automatically out now that the feed is working again?

Hi This is more of a presales question rather than a support question. I want a backup sync solution that would copy files on the array to an unassigned device when inserted into the Unraid server. I have only a little data (6TB) so a 6TB - 10TB hard drive would contain the backup. I envision inserting the drive, mounting it, having Seafile copy all the required files, and then unmounting and removing the backup disk. Would Seafile be a good choice for such a backup solution?

So, what I did was: - uninstalled the Plex docker - stopped the array - move the old plex directory out of the way - restarted the array - reinstalled the plex docker and included at least one media directory, pictures. Also made sure /config was mapped to /mnt/cache/appdata/plex as suggested Opening the Webgui link resulted in sucess. Plex is back up. Thanks for the help. I am much wiser about operating Plex now.

Thanks Squid. I did read above and I interpreted the discussion as affecting a minority of users not being me. It was coincidence then that my work on my Unraid occurred exactly at the same time as this app server problem. I'm new to Unraid and am still in the "getting familiar with all this" mode.

Hi, I'm suddenly having connection problems with my CA plugin on my Unraid server. When I click on the Apps menu button, the system hangs for a minute or so before producing the following error: Download of appfeed failed. Community Applications requires your server to have internet access. The most common cause of this failure is a failure to resolve DNS addresses. You can try and reset your modem and router to fix this issue, or set static DNS addresses (Settings - Network Settings) of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and try again. Alternatively, there is also a chance that the server handling the application feed is temporarily down. Switching CA to operate in Legacy Mode might temporarily allow you to still utilize CA. Last JSON error Recorded: JSON Error: Syntax error Docker FAQ Community Applications Version: 2018.03.30a The server is connected to the Internet and can access its resources, so the first suggestion is not the cause of the problem. It might the access to the application servers but I can't imagine this being the case. I've already tried a deinstall / reinstall but same symptoms are occuring. How should I go about debugging this problem?

Can I just completely uninstall the Plex instance and then delete all files left over in appdata after the uninstall? That seems to me to be the most expedient solution but I don't know if I'm getting myself into more hot water if I try.
