at this point I actually think its a compatibility issue between the x520 and the 10Gtek module for some reason, no drops since 9pm when I found an Intel SFP module and plugged it in. I have the Generic version of the same module plugged into Aquantia NIC’s and they work fine. Theyre all x520 cards, so they will all be using the ixgbe driver. there are 4 devices using the 10Gb network and theres an uplink at 10Gb from downstairs to upstairs, the rest of the devices are all at 1Gb (i.e Unifi switches hanging off the 10Gb switches). The 10Gb is there to connect the various machines downstairs and upstairs which transfer large amounts of data between them. Theres about 55 devices in total on the network. As i said its definitely not the switch because i csn plug unraid into anither 10Gb port on the same switch which doesnt flap and it starts flapping, I have switched modules and a non flapping one suddenly flaps when put into the x520, all my 10Gb modules are 10Gtek ones until ai remembered that i had some Intel ones, luckily one of them was a MMF LC SR module, so my last shot was to try that. So far its hanging in there.

yeah, i’ve swapped module positions to one which isnt flapping and it immediately starts flapping with Unraid. Since putting the Intel original module in I’ve had no link downs, too early to judge as i thought id fixed it earlier today with disabling autoneg, will check in the morning. Theres currently a fair amount of traffic going through it and has been since i installed the intel module, so it’s a good test. Not running LACP, don't need 20Gb of throughput! Thanks for the suggestions, always appreciated. Somebody will always come up with something different to try. Got everything crossed at the moment.

nah, theyre fine you only need something like 2M of cable for LR, the other connections are all LR and theres no problem.

Thanks dude. The issue occurs with 2 different dell X520 revision cards and the 10gtek version, I’ve changed from LR SMF cable and SFP modules to SR MMF cable and modules and still the problem persisted. I spoke too soon, despite hours with no fault it then had a spurt and suddenly hit 950 drops in the space of a hour or two. so, went through my box of networking equipment and found an genuine intel SR MMF module, so have switched that in to see if there is any change, I’m running out of ideas otherwise.

Yeah, it's very strange. My network consists of those 2 switches, Untangle as the router, UniFi 16 port POE, UniFi 8 port POE (60W) * 3, UniFi 8 port POE (150W). Everything works seamlessly, the only machine having issues is the unraid one. I'm using 10GTek SFP+ modules on the Unraid connection (as per everywhere else) and they're working fine everywhere, it's just this one machine that is giving me grief, and of course it has to be the machine that gets a lot of traffic (4K streaming via Emby for the household). Still, it's fixed now with autoneg off, no great loss as I only want them connected at 10Gb anyway. This thread might be of use to somebody else at some point!

This particular one is a Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4S+, I auto auto neg enabled on other ports going to other devices without issue, it just doesn't like the X520 for some reason. There's also a link between a CRS305-1G-4S+ and a CRS309-1G-8S+ which works flawlessly with auto negotiation on the link.

Didn't fix it, but I figured out what the issue was. On the switch port I disabled auto negotiation and since then not a single drop, stable as it should be!

Ok added ok, thank you! works a treat, just installed it and going at 52MiB/s woo!

Any chance of adding Axel? It’s a command line downloader like whet, but supports multithreaded downloads?

Thanks, I've just had a 10Gtek one delivered and it's showing the same vid, did, svid, sdid as yours, will try installing it in a bit.

Ahh cool, thank you very much! It shows as a similar name to mine, but I suspect yours has a bigger flash part on it and most likely has newer firmware. The question I probably should have asked at the start, do you happen to know/remember what brand & model the card is?

Thanks, I have a DA1 coming in addition to a newer DA2. can you post the output (snipped to show just the DA1 card) from this command lspci -vmn (the card you will be looking forward will have the vid/did of 8086:10fb - you can run lspci -vm first to show the human readable version, but that doesn’t display the numeric values for the sub vid/did which is what I’m interested in knowing!)

Hi, Is anybody running a X520-DA2 with success? I have had to disconnect mine and revert to on board ethernet as I'm having trouble with flapping. I've switched SFP modules and cables and it still happens, another device plugged into the same switch does not exhibit this issue. My card appears to be one of the older ones with the sub device of 7a11 and I'm wondering if this is the issue, it has the latest firmware on it that is available for that particular model. (16.5.20) I have a card arriving tomorrow which is a newer one to try. My log file is full of port is up and port is down messages, continually refreshing the dashboard you can see the device go from connected to disconnected.

i have this as well, i had a conversation with the developer and we reset it so that it showed the, as up to sate, but it must returned a short while after. I just ignore it now.

Cheers, that fixed it. I installed the other two which said update available and that cleared the status on those! Awesome work!

It's probably a plugin that installs a different version. I think preclear uses utempter. Humn, I did have preclear disk installed but I don't use it, so I just removed it. It's now not listing it in the nerdpack package list, but it's still showing as update available and checking for updates does nothing.

Which packages? tmux, utempter, vnstat.

I've got some packages showing as "update ready" but when I click check for updates everything is up to date, how do I reset the status of these stuck packages?

Somebody else who labels the drives, except I use the serial number, that way in unraid I can be absolutely sure I pull the right drive in the vent of a failure,

Yes, but as above it shows an error when I login as root to the plugin.

Trying to get the plugin working, when I login I get the following message: Unable to connect to serverx (1001) - Unable to get unRAID state (dockers): Get https://127.0.0.1/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/include/DockerContainers.php: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:443: connect: connection refused No users are shown, no dockers etc. The IOS app refuses to show any logs and just tells me I need to install the plugin. What am I missing here?
