    Cache disk SMART warning

    in General Support

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    I logged in today just to see these two messages:

      

    Unraid Cache disk SMART health [197]: 11-09-2019 11:47
Warning [TOWER] - current pending sector is 1
CT1000MX500SSD1_1922E2086346 (sdb)

Unraid Cache disk SMART message [197]: 11-09-2019 12:17
Notice [TOWER] - current pending sector returned to normal value
CT1000MX500SSD1_1922E2086346 (sdb)

     

    I ran the SMART check but it came back normal.

     

    How worried should I be?

     

    Many thanks

     

    [solved] Mulitple problems, docker, community apps, vms, hangs

    Thanks for the tip.

    Memtest is already showing errors at 5% pass.

     

    Should I continue for a full pass?

    Should I stop, remove xmp profile and start again?

    Should I replace the ram?

     

    Opted for reducing frequency to 2400, so far no errors at 25%.

    Will carry on for the next couple of days looking for the optimum ram speed.

     

    I'll add this to my list of things I wish I knew before.

    Hello,

     

    My server is in all sorts of trouble: it freezes, wont shutdown clean, docker containers don't work properly, vms wont install, community applications freeze.

     

    When I want to power down or reboot the web gui is still working. 

     

    Docker containers start but don't function properly e.g. Plex doesn't show on the network, won't update metadata, crashes later.

    Pulling some containers fails as unable to register layers. Despite disabling docker it is still running (can see running containers in terminal), container icons still show on dashboard.

     

    Ubuntu server vm wouldn't install - installer crashes at step 12

     

    Community applications 2019.09.01e the floating unraid loading logo stays on, I cans scroll the page but none of the buttons work. I have to manually type in servers IP address to get out.

     

    I had uncorrectable errors on BTRFS cache so changed to XFS.

     

    I have disabled docker and vms, removed docker image, libvirt.img, vm disk images, removed community applications. Run parity check, smart tests, file system tests, docker image scrubs - no errors reported.

     

    As soon as I enable or reinstall those features all problems come back. Shares are accessible until the thing crashes.

    1x Crucial MX500 1TB

    GTX 750Ti

     

    Attached are log files.

     

    I would be grateful if anyone had a look.

    [FS][UK] Unraid 'starter kit' (used hardware)

    in Buy, Sell, Trade

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    I just upgraded my server so would anyone be interested in the old stuff?

     

    1x Intel i5-2500 with stock cooler

    2x 8GB DDR3 RAM

    1x Cooler Master Hyper tx3i cpu cooler

    1x Intel DH61DL mini ITX motherboard with i/o shield

    3x WD Green 500GB HDD

    1x Seagate 500GB HDD

    1x WD Green 120GD SSD

     

    Not the most powerful equipment but will run Plex, docker, etc... Very stable.

     

    I would like to sell the lot for £60 including postage.

    Will set up an ebay auction with pay now option if there is any interest.

     

    Note: the motherboard has only 3x sata ports so will need a PCIe 2.0 x1 sata controller if you want to connect more drives.

    Please read MB specs https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/51855/intel-desktop-board-dh61dl.html

     

    All you need is a case with a power supply, some sata cables, and a USB stick with unraid on it to make your own server.

     

    Interested? Let me know.

    Otherwise all goes to scrap.

     

     

    [solved] Mover not working

    in General Support

    Posted · Edited by TomAsh
    Found soulution

    Well, I finally got it working by setting use cache to Yes and invoking mover.

     

    ----

    I've been through a lot of posts but still can't get files moved off the cache.

     

    I disabled both docker and VMs. I even deleted libvirt.img and docker.img

    I set all shares to not use cache. I click on mover and nothing happens.

    Even empty shares stay on cache.

     

    I want to clear the cache drive so that I can swap it for a bigger one.

    [solved] Ryzen motherboard recommendations

    in Motherboards and CPUs

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    I am planning to rebuild my server with AMD parts.

    So far I have decided on Ryzen 5 1600X but need a solid motherboard.

    I read a lot of reviews of B350 and B450 motherboards freezing for no reason and needing resets.

     

    Please could you let me know the motherboards you are using with Ryzen CPUs

    Ideally I am after a micro-ATX with 4 dimm slots.

     

    Many thanks
