How do you mount the tower/mergerfs folder on your non-unraid machine? I use autoFS to get the local unraid drives to mount on my separate machine, but the tower/mergerfs folder just loads in blank. I suspect I need to use some different mounting commands but everything I've tried has failed. Mind describing what you do and sharing your command?

And no issues mounting the mergerfs folder instead of mounting everything natively? I guess I should experiment with this as well

And your emby software is being run on a physically separated device and you mount tower/mergerfs there or something? Do you just use AutoFS for this?

Quick follow up here - everything is running well on my end. I have my plex box mount my unraid shares using autoFS and then mount the gdrive shares direct from the cloud using rclone which I run as a service. For your setup, when you say "point to unraid shares" how are you mounting the shares physically located on unraid as well as the gdrive shares that you have mounted on unraid. For the latter, are you mounting a copy of a mounted cloud drive? Sorry if that's confusing but I realized that instead of dismissing what you've done I'd like to know exactly what it is.

See the first post.

I'm having this exact same problem, and changing the timeout from the default 90 to 180 did nothing. Recheck started. Anyone offer some tips on where I might need to look to solve this?

Look for a cheap laptop or desktop/thin client that has an intel 7th+ gen chip in it. I bought an older HP Prodesk. Install linux, Plex, mount unraid and cloud drives

My setup is a combination of local + cloud storage using this setup. I'm using Unraid as an OS. Recently, I've encountered some issues with my CPU maxing out due to my Unraid use + the number of transcodes I have. Instead of upgrading the chips or adding a graphics card, I chose the less expensive solution of grabbing a dedicated plex box for transcoding using Quick Sync. The main reason for the decision was the setup was far cheaper ($80) and the overall power usage is low, so total cost is significantly lower. Also allows you to run other things on this box if you choose. Box has Ubuntu with Plex on bare metal. I mounted my local unraid drives and mounted the gdrives. I haven't maxed out my transcodes yet but looks like the box can likely support 15+ (although I would bet probably 20+). I'm only allowing transcodes on 1080p content. For people who are using a similar setup to me, I think this is a good solution. Just wanted to let everyone know this is an option!

Using the current set of scripts, what factors effect the load time for files from gdrive?

Just went with an rclone mount actually.

I have a separate box (Ubuntu) so I can use quicksync to transcode. I currently have the unraid drives mounted using AutoFS. I'm asking about directly mounting the gdrive to the quicksync box. The scripts here are still needed on the unraid box for sonarr, radarr, and uploading files to the cloud (etc). It seems like you're suggesting something that would be like mount gdrive on unraid, and mount the mounted drive on qs box. Why would I do that instead of mount the gdrive directly on the QS box?

Has anyone here migrated their plex media server off of unraid onto a quick sync box? In the process of doing it now (need to handle more transcodes and this is a very cheap solution), and curious about mounting the gdrives on Ubuntu - wondering if I can use a modified version of this script?

No

You could browse via CLI. Type in rclone lsd [mountname]: or rclone lsd [mountname]:[foldername]

Yeah it works on the second one. I adjusted the cache size as well. Not a problem for me, but when I see something like that I want to make sure I know why it's happening or that I'm not the only one! EDIT: Deleted question about API calls - I set up something wrong a long time ago

I've done a few tests and noticed that on reboot the mount script fails the first time, and works the second time. Anyone else encountered this?

Even though I scratched mine out, looks like the 9500K limit and trickling all day might be the best way for you.

Man, I'm having a hell of a time with this container. Current error: "An error occured applying the software update." After you click OK it says "Select the system you want to use to start up your computer" and "macOS update assistant" in the other window.

One way to do this is to change your BWlimits from unlimited, 12M, and 15M to 9500K for all 3. This will keep your upload running all day but will limit the total bandwidth to keep your upload under 9500K. You can also adjust the timing with higher and lower speeds, but remember if the script is still running when it crosses from one BWlimit to another, it doesn't recheck until the script runs again. This means that shifting across times like this can have you cross 750GB even if you have different limits if you have a lot of data to upload. EDIT: There's a line I missed that stops it at 750GB already in there. Your script it good, no need to change the BWlimits

What are you trying to accomplish? Just shutting your script off at 750GB/day?

This script throttles your upload at 15MB/s from 0800 to 1600 and 12MB/s from 1600 to 0100. Other than that it is unlimited bandwidth. I don't see anything in your script to cut it off at 750GB EDIT: There's a line I missed that stops it at 750GB already in there. Your script it good, no need to change the BWlimits

post a copy of your script

Are you using the team drives with service accounts?

Thanks for keeping all these updates here - it's helpful for me at least.

So I've been up for ~20h now no problems.
