I am trying to install Krusader on my UnRaid server 6.5.3 (I believe) and I keep getting an error... root@localhost:# /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/scripts/docker run -d --name='binhex-krusader' --net='bridge' --privileged=true -e TZ="America/Los_Angeles" -e HOST_OS="unRAID" -e 'TEMP_FOLDER'='/config/krusader/tmp' -e 'WEBPAGE_TITLE'='Tower' -e 'VNC_PASSWORD'='' -e 'UMASK'='000' -e 'PUID'='99' -e 'PGID'='100' -p '/mnt/:6080/tcp' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/kde':'/media':'rw' -v '/mnt/disks/':'/UNNASSIGNED':'rw' -v '/boot/':'/FLASH':'rw' -v '/mnt/user/appdata/binhex-krusader':'/config':'rw' 'binhex/arch-krusader' /usr/bin/docker: Invalid hostPort: /mnt/. See '/usr/bin/docker run --help'. The command failed. I've followed the Youtube vid on how to install to the letter but I keep getting this error. I have a funny feeling this has to do with My host port 1 configuration? it was originally 6080 or something like that but the vid says change it to /mnt/ What have I done wrong?

I'm very new to UnRaid and and new to Linux (windows guy) , but I have a very dumb question to ask, so please accept my sincere apology... I have installed Plugins. In particular the CA Backup plugin... I created a folder called "backups" (following the UnRaid must have youtube vid.). I'm trying to create 3 folders within the "backups" folder (app data backup, flash drive backup, and libvirt backup). I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create a folder within a folder??? I created the original folder, but cannot go into the created folder to make the 3 folders? I tried right clicking but there are no new folder options like windows. I have 3 different open links options "open link in new tab" "open link in new window", and a "open link in incognito window", a "save link as" option, a "copy link address" option, and a "inspect" option. None of these allow me to create a folder within a folder? I know its something simple.... What am I doing wrong? LOL, please hold all laughter until after my dumb question is answered...

Guess who is finally Formatting Devices, and Parity Synching??? I could not have done it without your help!!! I'll be asking loads of questions in the coming days ahead, but for now, Im feeling very accomplished! -SS

I just got an email from the company, and they agreed the trays they sent were not for a R900, I believe they are for a R710. They said they would send me out the correct trays. It took 1.5 weeks to get the drives and trays here. So im guessing another 10-12 days before I can play with my server? That's Julian luck... I mean, Serpent luck for you! Once they come in, I'll have 3, 2tb drives and will be able to finally set up my arrays! Just twiddeling my thumbs here... You guys/gals are correct though... I should just suck it up and buy my UnRaid now! Love it so far, and I'm sure what I want to do with it is totally doable!

Good news and bad news. All 3 drives came in!!! I ordered 1 new Toshina P300 2tb from walmart. I removed my 300gb hd that came with the server and used its tray and I got green lights. The 2 WD hd that I ordered off ebay that came with R900 trays, turns out to be some other type of server trays (not for a R900). I contacted the seller, and he asked for pics... This is not a R900 server drivetray... I hope to have the correct trays before my eval. copy of UnRaid expires...

SSD... I have been thinking about this but may need a little of your guidance on this one... Currently, my Dell R900 server has a keyboard, monitor, and mouse conmected to it in a server rack. However, I usually dont go in there unless Im upgrading bios, or hardware. I usually connect via network with my laptop, other desktops (2 of them), or phone (which I havent figured out but will ne in the very near future). idrac is way at out of my pricerange, so I've been connecting with my web browser (UnRaid) and before UnRaid I was connecting using windows remote desktop. Both were very successful. I had just assumed I would use UnRaid but hadnt thought past that. If I do use passthrough, Im only using 3 VM's total so Im good, right? If not, I guess Ill ne using some sort of software. What do you recommend in my situation? Your thoughts?

Once I get the hard drives in (sata cables came in today, hd's arrives this Tuesday I think) I'll remember to set-up with power consumption in mind. So far, the longest I've had the server on was maybe 3 hours during removing server 2016 and installing UnRaid, and a quick temp configuration. During that time, the room did warm quite a bit. However, server temps stayed well below warm. The fans sounded like 2, 747 cleared for take off!

I believe it pulls around 400 watts at idle. I've only had the server up and running for a few days now. Am I going to get a big surprise on my electric bill this month?

Yes! I was thinking 16gb RAM to each VM would work. That would give me at least 5 virtualizations to play with.

Thanks again for all your help guys, and gals! And again, sorry for all my "newbie-dumb" questions. This is how a learn, so keep the answers, and help coming!

My Server is a Dell R900, currently, 96gb RAM, upgradable to 256gb RAM, 4x xenon 2.93 processors 4 cores each, so 16 cores total. Perc i6 disk controller, 4x gigabit network cards (running), 2x 10gigabit network cards (not running), idrac (not running)... Maybe just a little more RAM and I should be good hardware wise, right? So far considering 3 VM's and 2 dockers. All on Unraid OS. (I hope I'm making sense?). I read up on VM's and I got that pretty solid in theory... I read up on Dockers, and I understand it, but still don't grasp it very well. I think Dockers for me will be a "wait and see" once I get it all set-up. I will be running Tonido, inside a container using docker (I think) for my cloud server. Plex will run on a VM using mac os. the other 2 vm's will handle windows 10, 1 running MailEnable and the other running my webserver (leaning towards publisher). In theory, this is what I've come up with so far.

SSD... Can I run 1 VM with 2 different windows 10 pros, or would i just do two VM's each running a windows 10 pro?

Jcloud... I currently have no job. LOL, I was a school teacher and the redtape you have to go through with admin. and student parent's finally outweighed the zeal to teach! 10 years. Before I taught however, I was in IT. Now, I'm trying to get back in the game. Technology has drastically changed, but I absolutely love this stuff! Hopefully, before the summer is out, I can get some certifications, and experience under my belt?! That's the short story... I never really messed with Linux. I have very little experience with Mac servers, but always stayed in the PC realm (silly me). A good friend of mine, after explaining what I wanted to accomplish recommended UnRaid. I was considering spending money I don't have for Server 2016 which originally I was more comfortable with. I quickly figured out that UnRaid does the same thing (possibly even better) much cheaper! The learning curve part should be no sweat! So, here I am! I was up well past my normal sleep times reading up on VM's; how they work; why you would need/use one (or in my case, 5). I still haven't quite grasped the idea of the differences between a Docker, and VM? I'll get there eventually.

Hi! I'm julian... I'm super new to UnRaid and Linux. I LOVE IT so far! I have very little experience with Windows Server 2016. I'm pretty good with Windows 10 pro, and home. Also, I know a little DOS. That's about it. I'm currently studying for my A+ certification and decided to purchase a Dell R900 server to set-up and learn as I go. I only have 1, 300gb hd at the moment but just recently purchased 2, 2tb hd with trays and sata cables. Once they arrive (a few days) I'll really dive into UnRaid all out! I want to set-up my UnRaid server to do 5 things: 1) email server (small, maybe 10-20 emails max.). 2) Host approx. 10 websites built with Publisher (I know, I know... Publisher. LOL). 3) Media Server (music, maybe a few games, and video) for inside, and outside my home, workgroup network. 4) a small cloud (maybe 1 tb) hd. 5) and maybe set-up a domain if I can get this Dell R900 a little quieter, or maybe soundproof the rack its in at my home... What software, dockers, vm's, or anything else I'm missing would you recommend for me to accomplish my 5 things? I'll be asking plenty of dumb questions because I have no idea about Dockers, VM's, or anything else related to that.... So, please be patient with me. I'll be a "Pro" in no-time!
