I get the same error.

Hi Running v6.2.4 of unRAID with the Common Problems and User Apps plugins only. Every few days now my unRAID (ESXi guest) GUI becomes unreachable and the CPU hits 100% and stays there. I realise ESXI isn't supported but if someone could take a look through my diagnostic files to see if they can spot anything that would really be appreciated. All data drives are connected to an M1015 passed through to unraid while the cache drive is RDM. The problem started when I recently upgraded from v5. I've tried re-provisioning a new VM, including re-doing the cache RDM, which seemed to help for a few days but I've just seen the problem come back. Thanks tower-diagnostics-20161115-1714.zip

The SuperMicro ATX X10SRL-F-O isn't on there unfortunately. Edit: It does have the X10SRA, however, and that's compatible with the memory. That's the same generation and very similar so I think I'm good to go. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi I'm looking at building a new server and wanted to get some advice please, especially regarding CPU, mobo and RAM compatibility. It'll be a NAS with a few dockers and a WHS VM to start. Not looking at gaming or anything (yet). Below is the parts list. If there are any obvious errors or suggestions could people let me know please?

Thanks all. I've got all the disks I have spare in there so I guess I'll cross that bridge if and when I come to it. With a 4TB disk limit I should be good for a while.

Sorry for the delay but I've been slowly putting my system together. I ended up risking the Ivy in the X9SCM-iiF (bios 2.0a, unRAID Server Pro v5.0-rc11, ESXi 5.1) and while I haven't finished yet things do look promising. I flashed 3 M1015s to P15 and installed them. The M1015 closest to the CPU (SLOT7 PCI-E 2.0 X8) has two cables going to the bottom two backplanes (I'll call them 1 and 2 counting up from the bottom) of the Norco 4224, the next M1015 along (SLOT6 PCI-E 2.0 X8) has two cables going to backplane 3 and 4 and the third M1015 (SLOT5 PCI-E 2.0 X4 ON X8) has one cable going to backplane 5. While I only have 9 disks total to test with, and I haven't quite finished setting up the array, it seems that Unraid is seeing all the drives. The drives I have are: 4TB Hitachi parity (installed in a 4224 drive bay), 512GB SSD datastore (not passed through to Unraid), 256GB SSD cache (physical RDM from onboard SATA), 2 x 2TB WD RED (installed in a 4224 drive bays) and 4 x 3TB WD RED (installed in a 4224 drive bays). The only drives that I have connected to M1015s atm are the parity drive and the 6 x WD REDs. As such, I currently have 3 drives installed in drive bays on the bottom (backplane 1) row and 1 drive installed in each of rows/backplanes 2, 3, 4 and 5 (if that makes sense). I have some screen shots below and it looks good to me but as I said, I haven't actually built the array yet. I've pre-cleared all of the drives 3 times each and will start to build the array and migrate my media tomorrow. I've attached my syslog too and don't seem to be getting any doorbell errors or whatever RockDawg seemed to be getting. I'm not sure if drives are supposed to be listed twice as above. If those more knowledgeable than myself in this area see anything wrong with this please let me know. Thanks syslog_20130323.txt

I think this is what you're after but not sure about the latest version: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=12767.0

Yeah I did a bit of research last night. There seems to be a few issues floating around involving those components. Think I might end up with a Sandy Bridge too if I can find one. A shame because I put off building the thing to wait for it, then I put it off again due to your issue. So how's your setup looking at the moment, RockDawg? X9SCM-IIF-O, Sandy Bridge and 3 M1015s? How many HDs are you running? Thanks

pantner: I think you may be right about the reds. Might switch to greens and start getting reds if the greens fail. And I will get a red for my HTPC too. I've thought the same thing about the parity drive. I haven't had the experience building one but a 4TB drive should hold me in good stead for a while. I've read that a faster parity drive can help performance so maybe I'll get a 4TB WD Caviar Black instead. Good call about the cache drive. I really don't need one that big. I'm thinking a Samsung 830 256 GB SSD now. Think I'll upgrade the Datastore to a 528 GB too. Johnm: Yeah I remember there was a thread on here somewhere about that. I think someone had trouble adding the third m1015, from memory, and had to get an expander instead. Maybe it was a second m1015 though not sure. I will do some more research on that, cheers. I'll have to add a UPS too I guess.

I've been lurking for over a year now and the time has finally come to start my build. I started out wanting a simple unRAID machine but after reading Johnm's ATLAS thread (thank you), of course I wanted to virtualise. I don't really know if I need to, but I really want to. It was quite some time ago that I did my research and I'm a little rusty but I'll go through the ATLAS thread again, at least, before I purchase/build to revise my knowledge. Any advice/suggestions though, would be greatly appreciated. Hardware: CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1230V2 - Are there better, reasonably priced, options for transcoding? Intel Xeon E3-1240V2 Motherboard: Supermicro X9SCM-IIF-O Storage Adapters: 2 x M1015's - I already have these and flashed them as required ages ago. Not sure which version of firmware I used. I can't quite remember how many HDDs I'll be able to run off these but I know it's more than I'll require. Might get a third M1015 or a RES2SV240 SAS Expander in future if required.

Hey all, I too am a long time lurker first time poster sooo... hi. Thank you phwaa. This is pretty much the same system I'm speccing. The only difference I have at the moment is that I'll be using a recycled Antec 1200 as the case. Any updates on how this in going phwaa? Cheers
