[[Solved] 2.5gb network card setup help]

Will the card just assume eth0 with previous static ip and dns settings? 

[[Solved] 2.5gb network card setup help]

If I disable the nic would I have to preconfigure the card with my settings that my mb nic uses 1st? 

[[Solved] 2.5gb network card setup help]

Hi can anyone help I currently have motherboard nic 1gb but have installed a new 2.5gb pci card. Mb nic is eth0 and card is eth1 in the network settings. Is it as simple as changing them in interface rules so that 2.5card is then eth0 and vice versa? 

 

Will the card adopt the previous static ip address previously set with Mb nic? 

 

Does both have to be on a different ip range before I swap? 

 

 

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

Just stick with 6.9 for the moment with the other script as working for me. 

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

How do you apply your method and can this be done on a schedule? So the drives do finally spin down. 

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

Where looking at getting the discs to spin up at a certain time of day and staying spun up.

[Backup script crashing server and using most of RAM]

Hi quick question i wrote a script to enable me to start backing up my most valuable data but ran into a few problems, 

 

#!/bin/sh

rsync -av --delete /mnt/user/Pictures /mnt/disks/Backups_Ext

 

Backup when well but when finished has used 75% of my memory and it pegged my cpu at 100% for about 3mins and when i tried to start my VM  it wouldnt as not enough memory , also made my system very unstable to the point unusable so had reboot. Thankfully everything back to normal but was wondering  if can i manually flush/empty the memory? 

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

Great many thanks have script repeating every 25 mins as spin down is at 30m so they are awake from 7pm to midnight on the weekend when plex is used most. 

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

/usr/local/sbin/sdspin /dev/sdX up

So this will spin up all the drives or do i have to replace X with my drives allocation letter ? if so do i need to write the script for as much drives as i have ??

[Spin up script not working since update 6.9]

[[6.9] /dev/dri is missing]

I take it the boot/config/modprobe file is already present on the flash drive.

 

Thanks very much only use my server for plex so like you useless to me if cant transcode.

 

Thanks again and sorry for the hassle 

[[6.9] /dev/dri is missing]

Yeah i understood the intel part 😄 , so if i login into unraid from my w10 pc and open a console window and type  touch /boot/config/modprobe.d/i915.conf that's it ?

[[6.9] /dev/dri is missing]

This command  "touch /boot/config/modprobe.d/amdgpu.conf # create an empty file" 

 

Im sorry for the hassle just not very clear to me. 

 

So within  config/modprobe.d folder create a file with "touch /boot/config/modprobe.d/amdgpu.conf # create an empty file" using notepad ??
