This is great! Thanks! Running it with pia on br0 with fixed ip should work? (it looks like it)
-
No need to do it in the go file. Go to Settings -> Disk settings and change "Tunable (md_write_method)" from "Auto" to "reconstruct write".
-
What people fail to understand is that Unraid runs in/from ram. It's not like installing and running Windows on your USB-stick as a daily driver (even if you can do that). 😉
Booting from flash devices are used because it works. Same reason it is used in many enterprise solutions.
-
Catch up to what?
So the enterprise systems out there with os on sticks (or internal flash devices) mounted in internal usb-ports should also catch up? To what? Unraid runs from ram so why change a working concept? Sticks can go bad but that's the case with ALL storage solutions. The stick is only used to store settings, boot and load Unraid system in to ram. The reading and unpacking the system to ram happens very early in the boot process and after that, unraid continues to boot from ram only. Reading settings from the stick and that's it.
Doing backups and in the worst case scenario, you will need to restore it to another stick. That's like 10 bucks for a good one? And you are up again. Easy and cheap to replace and most systems have good speed to ram. To work with all variety of systems, I see this solution as very good. A failed storage device could be costly. Also, moving the stick to another system will just work.
-
Good to hear that you are up and running again.
BTW, make external (not on same server) backups of the stick regularly, especially after changing settings. I do it automatically every night using the Duplicati docker. Backing up /boot to OneDrive (and the appdata share). I also use the CA Backup plug in to backup flash to array every night.
-
My fit runs hot when writing/reading much data at once. Like booting. But not that hot when the system is running. I think that's normal with small sticks. Less surface area to distribute the heat but not a problem. Designed that way. 😉 I changed my stick from a big Kingston stick to the smaller fit because it was protruding too much at the back of the server. My server is located on the floor in the hallway so I don't want my kids to accidentally hitting the stick and break it (and/or the port or motherboard). 😉

I get this error: "The registered GUID does not match the USB Flash boot device GUID"
Where? In the gui? That would be the case until you transfer the key and installing the new key using the manager in the gui.
-
Don't format it! Try to check the drive for errors. I don't know how that works on Mac. If and when the stick is repaired, I would back it up and replace the files on the stick using the unraid zip file to fix corrupt system files. Personally, I would not continue using the stick in my server. Just make sure to backup the files on the stick if you can before doing anything.
-
Use USB 2 port for your stick. USB 3 could be unstable.
Ultra should work fine but all sticks could go bad of course. I use SanDisk Ultra Fit 16GB USB 3.1 in USB 2 port since a week (changed from Kingston, needed more compact hardware). Working fine but your milage may vary.

I would set up the new stick using the tool from unraid and see if that boots. After that I would remove the config folder from the NEW stick and copy the folder from the old stick to the new one.

Thanks, it's copied. Going to try with a new USB stick. Is there a recommended USB stick to use?
I have used SanDisk and Kingston sticks without problem.

You should also be able to download it using the link in the original registration e-mail.

Just now, cagemaster said:
Which file is that? Where is it located on the USB?
It's in the config folder. Ends with .key.

Just now, cagemaster said:
What about the licence key if I change USB stick?
Copy the keyfile from the old stick to the new one. When booted from the new stick you will have the option to transfer the key to the new stick.
-
Sounds like bad USB stick? Try another one? Copy the config folder to your computer if you can.

If you change something regarding your shares, this will be added to the syslog:
QuoteMar 4 15:46:41 Server emhttpd: req (38): shareNameOrig=domains&shareName=domains&shareComment=Saved+VM+instances&shareAllocator=highwater&shareFloor=0&shareSplitLevel=1&shareInclude=&shareExclude=&shareUseCache=only&cmdEditShare=Apply&csrf_token=****************
Mar 4 15:46:41 Server emhttpd: Starting services...
Mar 4 15:46:41 Server emhttpd: shcmd (563): /etc/rc.d/rc.samba restartBoth share name and share comment visible in the exported syslog. I used domains here but the same applies to all user shares. That does not get anonymized. I don't know if this happens with other changes that shows in the syslog. Using debug logging for some stuff could show some personal information too. Mover logging will show private filenames and so on.
-
Small update. The change gives me very consistent result.

Ok, thanks. Will look in to it.
Never seen 0 spun down. Always at least 1.

Replace in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/ca.turbo/scripts/auto_turbo.php, set "Enable Automatic Turbo Mode" to no and then yes. Try.
Line 80:
$result = shell_exec("smartctl -i -n standby /dev/{$disk['device']} | awk 'NR==4'");
Line 84:
if ( strpos($result,"STANDBY") || strpos($result,"SLEEP") ) {
gives me good result.
Also changed the logging to be more clear for people like me (a bit stupid, lol)
logger("Total Data Drives Spun Down: $totalSpunDown/" . count($validDisks));
= "Feb 27 19:55:36 Server root: Total Data Drives Spun Down: 2/3"
with hdparm and "if ( ! strpos($result,"active") ) {" the code counts unknown as spun down because it can't find "active".
I guess it won't work good with devices or hba's without smart support? Could fall back to hdparm if so.-

Same here. The number does not reflect the number of spun down drives as the dashboard report. Crossflashed IBM M1015.

I used the plugin "Nerd Tools". Installed "kbd-1.15.3-x86_64-2.txz" (Settings - Nerd Pack) and added this to the go file on flash for Swedish keyboard (qwerty) in terminal etc:
# load keyboard layout loadkeys se-latin1
For german (qwertz), you have these:
de-latin1-nodeadkeys
de-latin1
de-mobii
de
de_CH-latin1de_alt_UTF-8
Add and reboot (you can also try it out by running "loadkeys de-latin1-nodeadkeys" in the server terminal without rebooting ofc).
You could also download kbd-1.15.3-x86_64-2.txz manually and put it in to flash/extra folder and it will install at boot instead of using Nerd Tools.
I hope this helps.

I had this now and then before replacing all sata-cables in the server. No increase since.

Yes, 20% free RAM by default, you can always use turbo write.
20% free ram used for cache. That's why I got full speed until ram cache was full.

Do you use cache? I do so my dockers and data is on ssd cache. Not much writing to array

[Support] binhex - PrivoxyVPN
in Docker Containers
Posted · Edited by Niklas
Oh ok, that's not what i wished for. I have the rtorrentvpn container running bridged but i have other containers running on br0 (macvlan) that can't use the privoxy part of the rtorrentvpn container because the limitation that does not allow host <-> macvlan. That's why this container made me get my hopes up. I really want some of the other containers to proxy http(s) traffic over vpn (pia) but it would be problematic for me to move all containers to bridge or host. So many different ports...
The thing is, I have it on br0 now and it seem to proxy my traffic when using the ip I have assigned to the container? It "could" work but not supported? Like one Firefox setup, with the macvlan ip and port 8118 for proxy server, surfing to the pia homepage tells me that my connection is using pia ("Your IP Address: xx Your ISP: PIA You are protected by PIA").
