so i updated bios you cant do what i want there so back looking for a plugin or a script Scenerio 1. Array Off .Mother board temps hit 40C turn on Fan 1 and Fan 4 Array Off Motherboard temps hit 45C turn on Fan 1 4 6 and 7.. Scenerio 2 Array Off Cache Drive 3 Sata SSD hits 40 turn on Fan 2 and Fan 4 Array Off Cache Drive 3 Sata SSD hits 50 turn on Fan 2 and Fan 5 i want the same options as Auto Fan Control which is really only Array Fan Control but i want a duplicate copy for every Cache Drive individually 1 For Motherboard temp 1 For GPU Temp 1 for CPU TEmp every Unassigned Drive Individually there is not point spinning the Entire 7 Fans if you only need 1 of the 3 Array Fans and 1 or 2 Exhaust Fans so id like more control

@SiteAssemble ya thats what i did... sorry my disylexia i didnt explain myself right but what i ment was by default there is not such thing as Fan0 they should have labled it FAN1 to FAN5 not Fan0 to Fan4 cuz its FAN 1 to FAN 7 in PWM settings there not such thing as PWM0 what i mean is they need to fix it to change it 0 to a 1 and fix the Fan numbering i have 7 fan options Fan 0 really is PWM1 --> Array Fan 1 really is PWM2 --> CPU Fan 2 really is PWM3 --> Rear Right Fan 3 really is PWM6 --> Rear Left FAN 4 really is PWM5 --> Chipset Cooling so you can see the number doesnt match correctly but i got it labeled correctly at least so i wont get confused looking at the dashboard now as i was getting confused before Fan0 but you need to know the PWM1-7 nothing is perfect.. but least your labeling help has helped my needs now only if it could just be incorporated in the the pluggin and id like more control options over specific SSDS etc no control for that

is there a way i could copy the dynamix fan plug in and modify it so i have say 6 copies of it and then modify it 1 for motherboard, 1 for each unassigned drive, 1 for nvme, 1 ssd, cpu,gpu, so there is more control so you have that 1-7 pwm fans for each option so motherboard gets 1-7 pwm fans cpu gets 1-7 pwm fans cach1 gets 1-7 pwm fans and so on and each option gets there own unquie control of the fans

@tjb_altf4 ah well i know i have 6 headers.. 1 is a opt cpu which sucks as you cant turn it off and i got a pump header which doesnt wanna stop but there is a setting for PWM but there is a new BIOS release i might try so to do things i have 3Way splittler from 1 header to 3 array fans.. but i realyl dont like it you bump a wire any of the 3 fans will spin on its own i dont know why this happens and then i have 2 rear fans on there own headers.. and then i got the chipset cooler and the cpu the dashboard i dunno why it reports FAN0 there is not such thing as fan 0 so the dashboard for Fans is incorrect it doesnt match correctly as i disable the cpu and chipset from the enabled in fan controller. but my mobo doesnt have a GPU in the bios to turn on array fans if its over heating.. and there is no option in the dynamix fan control for SSDs, cache, unassigned drives and i also looking for a feature you dont need to spin up all the fans maybe fans 1 3 7 as an example.. but ill update my BIOS tomorrow and see what happens if i can do both as i couldnt and i not sure if that also the problem i have on 3 way splittler if you bump 1 fan it will run while the other 2 are off.. or you bump the middle one willl cause a 2nd fan to run.. but i dont think 3 way splitters work right.. i think u need 1 fan per header they just dont have enough header s but ya really i wanted is a real break down per drive 38-46C For all the Array and Exhaust fans to kick in Excluding Nvme,SATA SSD 48-70C For Cache 1 (NVME) 48-70C For Cache 2 (SATA SSD) 38-46C For Cache 3 (Sata Spinner) 38-46C For Unassigned Drive 1 38-50C Motherboard Only Run 2 Exhaust Fans forget the Array Fans 50-70C CPU Only Run 1 Exhaust Fan and 2 Array Fans and i want to be able for each Drive to choose what Fans to kick in.. so could be 1 Exhaust 1 Array fan or no Array Fans just 2 Exhaust i just like more options broken down more control what fans can be enabled per option so basiclly that Dynamix Fan Control.. thats Only For Array there should be a complete copy for CACHE 1 CACHE 2 CPU MOTHERBOARD Unassigned drives etc but ill try again tommorrow with a bios update

@SiteAssemble noticed bug on that dashboard.. when i turn off that custom to see. its labeled FAN 0 but there are no fan 0's it should start at FAN 1 not sure how to fix it cuz i modied your code to add fans 4-7 since i have 7 fan headers they dont show up but i gonna test tommorow to label them 1 at a time.. just noticed FAN 0 FAN0 must be like PWM1 meaning FAN1

@Squid ya i seen that but least with the X570 Asus Tuf Gaming you can set the Bios temps on a curve.. but when you use the Dynamix Fan Array thats disabled since Motherboard and Array Fans are the same fans so what i saying is well you cant have both i guess so when Array goes to Standby and shuts off all the fans when Motherboard temperature at bottom of the screen says 40C say then i want it to spins up the Array Fans you can only have Bios or you can only have the Array Fans.. you cant run both... so i wanted the Same Plugin that Fan Control is which is missleading the info says System Temperature.. which it isnt its Array and Cache temperature only so i wanted to Copy that Plugin modify it so Option 1 CPU, Option 2 GPU, Option 3 Motherboard, Option 4 Unassigned drives as there is no option to spin up the array fans for Unassigned Drive temperatures when they hit 45C degrees in my 20 bay case.. no option to spin up the array when that drive is spinning and the array is in standby there is no option in BIOS for unassigned drive temperatures so i looking for options but ill re try the BIOS but its just 2 conflicting as if i remember you set to Manual not automatic so you cant use BIOS if you wanna use same fans for the array but ill try tomorrow oh and there is no GPU in motherboard BIOS for temperature... to run the array fans plus there is no option for Fan Spin up on NVMEs, SATA SSDs, as there should be a seperate Fan controller for those when the Array is in Standby mode

hi i know that the dynamix Fan control is only a hard drive fan control and has couple bugs i looking for a plugin or create my own plugin dont know how.. but least a script so when the fans are all shut off due to Array is standby no need but when the heat buids up in the case from GPU CPU or Motherboard or NVMEs there isnt an option to spin up the the rear fans.. or all the fan to exple the heat is there a way i can code something dont know unraid plugin coding and since all the dynmaix plugins all go into the same support forum its basiclly impossible to get support per plugin as it can get missed by other replies.. so too hard to ask for features.. be nice if each plugin had its own support page.. for better support but ya i looking for something to spin up the fans at a percent like the dynamix fan low and high range.. but for when NVME, caches,gpu,motherboard,cpu and possibly unassigned drives that maybe in the array is there options out there?

@SiteAssemble lol ya or if we got the plugin code could edit to add label and options for motherboard cpu gpu.. but ya i wouldnt know where to start i usually coded best in Visual Basic 6 and .net i only recently in this pandemic learned some python for raspberry pi.. i only got unraid last couple years or so.. as i didnt like linux back in 1999 in college.. got fed up with redhat. and unix i said screw it stick with windows lol but i hear ya as if i knew to code i have some plug in ideas to make improvements

@SiteAssemble ok that worked i didnt see that advanced thing.. i probably did it before you edited your post.. least i can see i can change the Fan names lol.. i never knew you could do that.. must been hard to figure it out.. well unless you work with css alot then people know it.... least its a work around as it was getting frustrating.. it still is when you work from the plugin side plus there should be a gpu, cpu,motherboard option to cycle the fans not just the drives temps.. since if the drives are off but the case heats up and yet the fans are not spinning it cant exhaust the heat as it needs the drives spinning

@SiteAssemble yes when i click import the screen just flashes does nothing

i remember another feature.. why isnt there a Motherboard Fan speed setting so if the motherboard gets to a certain temp but when the hard drives are off.. the Fans should kick in when Motherboard reachs a certain Temp as the Fan speed is only for Array but be nice if there was one for GPU Motherboard CPU so that you can tell the Array fans to turn on if the GPU is getting to hot or turn the Array fans on and the Rear Fans on if the CPU or Motherboard is getting too hot.. there isnt one for that

@SiteAssemble well for being new your smarter then me lol. i didnt know you could modify it.. but i dont really do css stuff anymroe 20 yrs ago using dreamweaver for webpage but that was it lol. so what i did is i just copy your code and made a custom.css one the flash drive. and paste it.. but going to the dashboard it didnt run it.. do you have to reboot unraid to get that custom to work i tried the import button but it does nothing and the click from usb does nothing either

@SiteAssemble i not sure how to do that.. also does it fix the mouse over at the bottom of the screen they are alll array fans which isnt right do you install that theme engine from apps? ya seems to be a pain.. so you change the code to what you got there... does it change each time unraid is updated like file gets over written and you gotta go back and re change the code for it i mentioned a while ago about fan labeling.. but i guess wasnt important.. enough plus i think requests get missed.. becaues all the plugins are in this same forum where they should be seperated.. so you cant miss a pluggin help with someone elses different plugin

found bug in the Fan control.. if you have a bunch of drives.. and say 6 in the cache pool.. and you set the Exclude those cache drives. when you remove those disks.. the Excluded Disks are now the Array Disks.. so seems everytime you change a Disk in the array either adding or deleting a disk .. in array. or caches. it messes up the chex boxs.. as i find my 1 array fan running when shouldnt etc.. also it be nice to slap a label for each fan like PWM1 have option to give lable like REAR FAN Right PWM2 = REAR FAN LEFT PWM3 = CPU FAN and so on. also be nice when you put the mouse over top of the footer of the webpage where it displays the Fan speeds.. instead of saying they are all Array Fans which they arent.. be nice to mouse over say CPU FAN, REAR FAN LEFT.. there was another issue i found but i cant remember now.. but figured i mention and request the LABEL option as i cant ever tell whats PWM1 - PWM7 without labeling label be great so in the pics .. i dont have what i had checked off but lan_cache_poolold and test_pool were part of the excluded with cache and lan_cache_pool i removed all the drives in lan_cache_poolold and tes_pool and then you see what you see in fan control it takes those excluded disks and set it to array disks and it unchecks cache and lan cache pool.. when these should have stayed checked

ah well maybe if its not that could be a future request to unraid? but that worked the mover stop... so ill just krusader each disk to the SSD.. i appreciate the help.. ya i dont know what those symlinks you mentioned so does that mean when the mover works from copying a Cache drive to the array its going to be slow too? so whats best practice? when you update your cache drive ur supposed to turn off docker and vms managers and then run mover.. but will it always run slow? and then vice versa.. i havent used mover much i just noticed it was taking god awful time.. so i figured maybe my system was broken

@Squid so for unbalance i dont know how you map to say /unraid i did post in unblance plugin forum asking for help how to get it to see the other cache drives i posted pics as for the Main. you cant hit STOP it wont let you reason i was saying i gotta reboot unraid to stop it so krusader is the best bet then.. so not sure what symlinks are.. but is it better for me to move the cache then with mover? or krusader.. as i gotta reboot unraid to stop mover.. as its been over an hour and half and i only moved 56gb

i just got a 2TB drive to replace my lancache .. i been using the lancache on my array but using mover .. to move the files off the array is going 5-13mb/s i got like 1TB of cache to move over.. how do you speed it up.. i tried unbalance but it cant see past 1 cache drive as i have multiple and is there a way to stop Mover command other then a reboot.. be nice to click Stop so i can unmount drive or what not... as i think i guess i need to use Krusader to move the folders off the array to ssd.

how do you get unbalance to see more then 1 cache drive.. i find Mover is very slow i have a lancache drive.. but unbalance can not see past the array disks plus 1 cache drive is there a fix to let it see all cache drives? or is there a way to get it to see it. like a check box that i dont know of

has anyone tried a Gen 4 running at the 7000mb/s noticed much difference in loading dockers vms etc.. over a sata or a Gen 3 3500mb/s?

ah ok thank you.. guess i moving the lancache to the array juggle some files to other hard drives then and get 2 2tb sata ssds and mirror it wouldnt be so bad but epic games drives you nuts with there launcher makes u download the games every time cant simply copy

ive tried mount -t btrfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test/lancache it mounts but when you copy with midnight commander i get errors and i get sooo manyhours to copy am i mounting things wrong how do i mount all those disks minus the one that failed in blue.. so i can move/copy the files off it to the array how do i mount each drive individuallly and move the files off each drive to the array into a single folder maybe better as i had to choose skip all it didnt like things

since i have that other post about issues with the lost lancache i still need help with my question is does unraid optimize for Gen 4 nvmes does plex load faster over the network when reading the thumb nails.. do windows vms load faster.. do copying ... etc is it worth getting gen 4 over gen 3 vs sata?

so i been playing with having a 2nd cache.. i use like 6 300gb hard drives for my lancache now the 1 drive failed.. and i did the turn off array change the drive shove back in and fire it up for the new drive instead of letting it format the single drive the whole 6 drives broken i swapped back the old drive.. but its still unmountable. i set the drives up as non mirror just the single drive use.. so i should be able to mount the 5 drives and access the files indvidually per disk how can i as ill just move to the array for now file system is BTRFS i need to save my files off the lancache. for epic games its takeen me more then a month 24/7 to download around 800gb for the games as my internet is not as good as others.. and i need to save the lancache i downloaded.. so need help or how do i renable the filesystem so i can then krusader it to the array.. but its unmountable but u didnt format them tower-diagnostics-20210711-1205.zip

ah crap i had to uncheck it because i was dealing with a different vm and was having issues.. ill re try that enable the check marks probably amd x570 doesnt like windows 10vm as it works ok in Volumio no poping you heard in that videos maybe you can only pass pci sound card or a Video card hdmi audio and not a USB audio i dunno the tribulations of vms right lol

a request be for the system logs.. sometimes be nice if some of the things could be have a better label so anyone can understand.. or a section or something that says These Warnings or These Errors they are ok dont worry about them.. like i think its that Token error i think where you get the error if you have more then 1 Browser open with Unraid running i get the Same Red error 1000 times.. be nice condense or put it in a sub heading "This Error Means....." or "This Warning....."and or under Sub Heading things not to worry about just an Idea this way just us joe blows can see ok nothing to worry about.. or this error maybe should ask the community
