  1. Hi All, just s FYI, I finally had some success, I deleted a wireguard peer that I had set up not too long ago and things started working again. I guess somewhere in the setup of the peer some IP or DNS got assigned the same number of something already running and that led to issues. It would be great somebody could find where this issue/conflict is in my diagnostics and highlight it so it might lead someone with similar issues in the maybe right direction. I'm thinking it would be awesome if Unraid had a function/app where you could (side by side) compare a log of 'last working configuration' with the current configuration for trouble shooting. Maybe there is something that already provides this but I have never come across it. Should i change this post to solved ?
  2. Hi Squid, I have regained some access after the settings change, cannot remote connect directly using wireguard but can access a raspberry pi on the same network as the server. The original problem is there, (docker and vm services are turned off for now) in fix common problems "Reset your modem / router or try again later, or set your to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 etc." I have attached the diagnostic zip and am hoping somebody can direct me in the right direction before I try to overwrite the flash drive with a backup from January. tower-diagnostics-20210731-1043.zip
  3. I'm thinking that's the same as editing the network settings via the settings tab and yes, i'll pull the diagnostics and post
  4. Hi All, My remote server started playing up and I lost access to plex docker, looking into the log and there were multiple entries about my servers flash backup (possibly due to connectivity) and in fix common problems there was an error about unable to connect to github and to reboot router and/or change to google DNS and try again. I tried google, github and local router DNS's all unsuccessfully. Some dockers were sort of running and 2 auto start vm's still had full internet access. Multiple reboots of server and router and the same situation. As part of trouble shooting I removed recycle bin (recent addition) and my servers plugin, no change. I then changed the network IP setting to DHCP and lost all access. I am in the process of getting someone to change the network setting back to static IP in the hope i can get back to where I was. I am hoping for some feedback on what the original problem might have been as the system had been solid for months. All I can think of is to try to restore the flash drive from a backup but thats just guessing. Any steps to correcting my issues or ideas to try for troubleshooting are appreciated.
  5. Thank you both, thats cleared up my understanding on the subject.
  6. Hi All, I’m looking for a recommendation on the best way to set up my hardware. Currently running 6.9.0 beta 35 on a ryzen 3900x with a 1080ti and gt 710 installed. The 1080 is passed to a win 10 Vm ( general use only, no gaming or editing) and my Plex docker is using software transcoding (gpu). Everything seems to be working ok for maybe 3 streams ( 1 local) concurrently. With the nvidia plugins available should I change the setup so the 1080 is passed to the Plex container for hardware transcoding or is the 12 core 3900x powerful enough to not benefit? Looking to set it up right to provide more remote streams in the future. Thanks in advance for your recommendations.
  7. Hi Guys, Success at last, in the process i found the hdmi cable a bit dodgy. Thank you for the assist.
  8. Hi mate, maybe my understanding of a VM is off or i'm not explaining my problem very well. I'm running an unraid server (loving it) in a desktop setup in GUI mode, I can also access it via my laptop. I'm running some dockers and a plex server. I had thought that by starting a VM from the laptop a new window would open up for win 10 (selected from the dropdown menu after it's started) or alternatively a cable connected from the second gpu (stubed to the vm) to the monitor would display win 10. As it stands from the laptop the VM starts and nothing, when the monitor is connected to the second gpu (first gpu for unraid disconnected) and the VM is started from the laptop a signal goes to the monitor to wake it then i only have a black screen until the monitor resumes sleeping. Am I thinking right here or do I need to read up some more on VM's?
  9. Hi Guys, I have managed to get a Win 10 VM (from it's own SSD) running Ok on VNC but every time i try to pass the Strix GTX 1080ti the VM starts ok but there is no GUI option in the dropdown menu. Can someone please look at my logs and give me some advise? Unraid Syslinux Configuration.docx VM Log.docx VM xml version.docx Hi Squid, I see you help out a lot on this forum and appreciate the time you took to reply. I was expecting to see a 'windows' option in the drop down menu in the GPU passed VM, if that doesn't happen and the video goes strait to the monitor I have a different problem, when starting the VM a signal goes to the monitor to wake it up but only black screen until the monitor sleeps again. Did I provide enough information for trouble shooting?
