Thank you. I ran the check and got a CRC warning. Repair fixed that so I'll keep an eye on things and report back.

Hi everyone. I've had a bad crash last night that corrupted my Plex appdata folder and am not sure what the cause could be. I was able to restore the bad file, but am not sure what the issue is. I had the Dynamix System Temp plugin installed previously and that used to be the issue, but I've since removed it and was great until yesterday. I've attached daignostics to see if anyone can spot what my issue could be. This install was migrated from an older supermicro board to my current Asrock Ryzen setup. diagnostics.zip Thanks

This server is my backup undraid server, so the drives in it are from the main server. When I upgrade a drive for more capacity, they go in the backup server if needed. This is the third drive I've used as a parity 2 drive in this server, but it did live it's entire life in my main server before being tasked as a parity drive. The other drives are older, but this is the only one I've had "fail" repeatedly. The Reported uncorrect count hasn't gone up in a long time, but this drive randomly has errors, then it'll be fine for a long time. 150 days at this point.

I've replaced my parity 2 drive a few times because it keeps getting offline uncorrectable errors. I've changed ports and cables, but still seem to be having this issue. Not sure what to look for, but diagnostics are attached. diagnostics.zip

Yes, I got new cards to replace the 3ware one. Sorry that doesn't help you. Performance is better with my cheap LSI flashed cards too, so you might consider going that route.

Still having this issue in 6.9.2 as well. Tried multiple browsers, no change.

Sorry, probably should have included that. plugin: updating: open.files.plg plugin: run failed: /bin/bash retval: 2 No issues with any other plugins. What can I look for if the issue is on my end? EDIT: uninstall/reinstall fixed it. I was just trying to see if it was something outside my setup. Doesn't seem that it was. Thanks

Anyone else having issues updating this plugin?

Thanks for the link and for taking the time to answer. Cache needed a bit of a repair so that's fixed now. Just have to figure out the easiest way to host my pihole servers since br0 seems to cause issues.

Not sure why this keeps popping up, but I get random kernel panic errors that halt the server. This time during the monthly parity check. I got a log from my backup server that is also my syslog server. Not sure what else could be needed, but it's attached. syslog-192.168.1.27.log

Yep. Won't be making that mistake again. Ubiquiti has been doing some weird stuff to the controller that has broken things a few times for me in the last few months. Should have realized I had it set to update to the latest version.

None of those things are associated with this error. A USB device that you have (had) selected in your VM isn't available for some reason.

So far, that's what I've seen (if you make any changes to the template). If you simply restart the docker, it goes through some setup, but my test camera is still showing up.

That's exactly what I'm trying to do. I'm probably missing something as to how to add that variable to the docker template.

How would I go about using the RESOLUTION variable for changing the VNC resolution? I've tried adding the variable manually, but it doesn't seem to be working.

BIg fan of the Gigabyte boards myself, but I've used them in my desktops for many, many years without issues. Haven't had one fail yet.

GTX 1050 and above will help, but getting a card that doesn't have a limit wold be better. It looks like your board can use the e5 26xx v2 series so you have lots of options. Those CPUs are cheap on ebay depending on which one you want. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/series/78582/intel-xeon-processor-e5-v2-family.html

True, it may be the containers you are using. I have close to 30 dockers, but not all are in use. Portainer is one that is there, but I don't use it unless I need to. Pulling down containers is pretty fast for me, but I'm used to this hardware. Single core clock speed could be a factor, but I'm not sure how much. I'd be interested to see how your performance is after you change your cache pool. Perhaps the RAID aspect is causing it to slow down?

I have a similar setup running on two different servers. One is the main server running 2x 2670 from the same generation as your 2660s. I haven't noticed any such slowdowns and our usage is very similar with the exception that my cache drive is a single m.2 1TB drive. I do have 2x GPU that plex can use for decoding/encoding so that takes a lot off the CPU. That server also has 2x parity and 22 array drives.

Not sure if this will help, but I've been using Hass.io in a VM for quite some time without issue. <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' id='1'> <name>Hassos</name>

Sadly these devices typically don't get the DRM capable stuff which is why CoreELEC or something like it is the preferred OS. I had a lower powered version that ran Kodi (LibreELEC) wonderfully and I used the plexkodiconnect addon for connection to my Plex library. Worked great, but UI lagged a bit (granted this is an s905x box which is significantly slower) so I opted for a "normal" HTPC with an nvidia GPU. Then moved the HTPC to a VM since I moved my main unRAID server next to the theater. Works perfectly with the exception of the Windows stuff I have to deal with. Once I get a 4K projector it won't matter as I'll just keep using my Shield TV for everything. Only reason I don't use it now is because it has an issue with HDR-SDR conversion and my projector is 1080p so the HTPC is necessary until all that gets fixed. Plus, Kodi's interface is SO much better than Plex.

I've had it working in a VM for some time. It was actually really simple following the guide. https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/atekmq/how_to_install_hassio_on_your_unraid_server_in_a/ Here's my xml if that helps. <?xml

Hey guys, hopefully this is the right place for this, but I would like some feedback on what I plan to move from a "real" pc over to a VM. Right now I've got a main unraid server and am using the trial for what I'm calling the backup server. Right now they are using Syncthing to back up important data from the main server. Sadly, my office closet gets a bit too hot for the main 24 drive server to sit in there any more. Even with my intake and exhaust fans the temp is just too high. So, the main server will get moved into the equipment rack upstairs where the HTPC is sitting and I'm thinking of moving the HTPC to a VM and passing through the video card so HA still works. The guides I've found are pretty straight forward so this should be pretty easy. Along with the backup server in the closet is my Sophos PC that runs the network. I'm considering putting that into a VM since the backup server will pretty much never get turned off. If I have to I can just use my Unfi USG in place since it's doing DHCP anyway. That way if I do have to power down the backup server I'll still have internet. I've searched the forums and have seen some advice about not putting the main router on a VM for what I've outlined above. Server off = internet off. What are the thoughts around this? This backup server will also house various other VMs I need for work and Home Assistant so it's will be considered critical. Two NICs will be passed through to Sophos. What else should I consider before starting? Is this even a good plan? Anybody have any success doing something similar? I'm really just trying to get away from having 4 PCs when I could have two do all the work considering the hardware available in both. Thanks in advance.

Yes, that should be all you have to do. It worked for me moving from a much older docker to this one.

I had that problem until I changed the Controller Host Name to its IP address.
