  1. Thanks again, after adding these cron jobs, my syslog is very short and clean. It's almost seems too short. Thanks! man, I didn't notice that it went off the screen when I did the copy/paste. Let me try that again. here is my go file; #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & # /boot/unmenu/uu # cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c unraid_notify start sed -i '/Scheduled Parity Check/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root sed -i '/cron=\"\"/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root crontab -l > /tmp/log; echo '#Remove ioctl error from syslog' >> /tmp/log; echo '* */1 * * * sed -e "/.*sending\ ioctl.*/d" -e "/.*callbacks\ suppressed.*/d" -e "/.*last\ message.*/d" /var/log/syslog >tmp && mv tmp /var/log/syslog' >>/tmp/log; crontab /tmp/log; rm /tmp/log I just checked my syslog and you all are correct, the syslog doesn't update after making the change to the go file. It is nice and short, but not updating after the inital boot. I had to comment out that cronjob and it's now updating again. Of course we have tons of the stupid errors clogging up the syslog now, but at least I have a log again. We need the SF email thing fixed, full stop. By the way, it doesn't work that good anyway. Before with unread email notificy, I would get updates when a parity check was running, now I get nothing but the "Tower is OK" emails. I too would like to konw if I kill the email notiify, would apc email notifications still work, or would that kill that too?
  2. how do I check to see where SF is looking for it? The file I put put in my \boot\extras directory is simpleFeatures.log.viewer-1.0.5-i486-1.tgz Is that the same version / file that you have? the log icon still isn't showing up... anyone else have this problem?
  3. thanks. I did that and got this back, -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 342 2012-04-30 16:02 /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/simpleFeatures/icons/page_white_text.png* so I guess the file is there. Refreshing the IE page didn't work. I even tried Chrome and Safari. The icon just doesn't show up. now what?

  5. No No. Then, be happy. Thanks! Just wanted to confirm. I feel better knowing it's not a issue.
  6. huh? what do you mean it fixed itself? what did you change? I just think this is weird how the icon is screwed up.
  7. Thanks again, after adding these cron jobs, my syslog is very short and clean. It's almost seems too short. Also, not so big of a deal, but the icon for "Logs" under "Utils" is just a big red X, as if it cannot find the icon. All of my other icons look fine. I've tried reloading the Simplefeatures log file, but no change. Is that what you see too, or is something wrong?
  8. I just noticed that when viewing the drive information, all but 3 drives have the Partition Format status of MBR unaligned. My Partiy, disk2 and disk3 show GPT: 4k aligned. I have 8 drives, plus parity, and cache, and boot of course. Would this be tied to the AFP TimeShare that I created? Better question, is this anything to worry about? My server seems happy. I'm running test2. Thanks!
  9. Thanks! man, I didn't notice that it went off the screen when I did the copy/paste. Let me try that again. Where is my go file; #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & # /boot/unmenu/uu # cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c unraid_notify start sed -i '/Scheduled Parity Check/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root sed -i '/cron=\"\"/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root crontab -l > /tmp/log; echo '#Remove ioctl error from syslog' >> /tmp/log; echo '* */1 * * * sed -e "/.*sending\ ioctl.*/d" -e "/.*callbacks\ suppressed.*/d" -e "/.*last\ message.*/d" /var/log/syslog >tmp && mv tmp /var/log/syslog' >>/tmp/log; crontab /tmp/log; rm /tmp/log Now does that look ok?
  10. Thanks! I will add those lines to my go script. My go file looks like this now: #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & # /boot/unmenu/uu # cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c unraid_notify start sed -i '/Scheduled Parity Check/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root sed -i '/cron=\"\"/d' /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root crontab -l > /tmp/log; echo '#Remove ioctl error from syslog' >> /tmp/log; echo '* */1 * * * sed -e "/.*sending\ ioctl.*/d" -e "/.*callbacks\ suppressed.*/d" -e "/.*last\ message.*/d" Does that look ok? Thanks!
  11. You have to remember, none of the people developing these plugins and addons get paid to do so. We do it for the love of the product. So when life gets a bit hectic, these add-ons will take a back burner. I maintain a number of plugins, and while there are features I'd like to add and some bugs I'd like to squash, if between work and family I don't have much time to develop these, they get set aside until I do get time. I'm sure its the same for speeding ant. That being said, you can set a cron to delete those lines every hour or however often you like to keep your syslog tidy and small until the issue can be resolved. If you'd like I can probably write it in so you can place it in your go file to add to cron every boot. Understood and many thanks. Given I'm not good at this stuff, yes please could you write that script? I didn't know that was possible, but it sounds like a good short term fix until you have the time to work on this stuff. thanks!
  12. Try rebooting the server, and then deleting the file.
  13. I must have missed test2 version. I have rc6 r8168 test that is all I see in the Announcements section too. What chagned in the test2 and where is it?
  14. good point, sure would be nice if the guy who created this woudl just fix it
  15. Yeah, I deleted the email plugin to address that. The logs were so spammed they were useless. Ok, but then you don't get any email notifications, which isn't good either. the fat logs don't hurt anything ,just make it hard to find real errors. We need an updated version that corrects this, where is the guy who developed it?? I get these errors non-stop, 1096: Aug 26 07:59:00 Tower kernel: scsi_verify_blk_ioctl: 32 callbacks suppressed 1095: Aug 26 07:57:59 Tower last message repeated 7 times 1094: Aug 26 07:57:59 Tower kernel: smartctl: sending ioctl 2285 to a partition! 1093: Aug 26 07:57:59 Tower last message repeated 5 times 1092: Aug 26 07:57:52 Tower kernel: hdparm: sending ioctl 2285 to a partition! 1091: Aug 26 07:57:52 Tower kernel: scsi_verify_blk_ioctl: 32 callbacks suppressed 1090: Aug 26 07:56:50 Tower last message repeated 7 times 1089: Aug 26 07:56:50 Tower kernel: smartctl: sending ioctl 2285 to a partition! 1088: Aug 26 07:56:50 Tower last message repeated 5 times 1087: Aug 26 07:56:44 Tower kernel: hdparm: sending ioctl 2285 to a partition! 1086: Aug 26 07:56:44 Tower kernel: scsi_verify_blk_ioctl: 32 callbacks suppressed Also, not so big of a deal, but the icon for "Logs" under "Utils" is just a big red X, as if it cannot find the icon. All of my other icons look fine. wtf?
  16. after setting it so it only uses one of my drives, it wokrs fine now, thanks.
  17. ok, I'll try that. So the rest of the settings are ok? I assume you have this setup and working, correct?
  18. Hi guys, I have a iMac now and need to setup a TimeMachine share. I'm not a mac guy so I would like to get feedback on how to configure the share on the unraid. I'm on v5 rc6 TEST. I set this up with the following so far, AFP protocal Export = Yes (TimeMachine) Security = Public size limit = 500gb Include Disk = All Exclude = none Use Cache drive = NO Export SMB = NO The iMac connected to the share and started the backup, then failed because it said the share wasn't available. The drives may have gone to sleep before it had a chance to finish. Also, when I created this share, it created some directories in my "Movies" share. Why the hell would it do that? I didn't want anything changed on my Movies share and found this weird. I just deleted those directories to clean up my Movies share. Thanks!
  19. when will there be a new version to address the millons of syslog entries?? The email plugin is the cause of my syslog growing out of control. It makes it hard to find what you need to see with all that junk in there. Isn't everyone else seeing these entries in your syslog? New version please!
  20. can anyone answer the questions on recommended network adaptor settings? Do you use Flow Control? What speeds are most people getting, or better yet what should I be expecting?
  21. I would like some recommendations on network adaptor configs because I had this setup before and was getting 70 - 80 kbs/s, which is nice and fast. I'm not only getting 45 - 50 kbs/s copy speeds. My old cisco router died and I replaced with a Netgear router. I have the Super C2SEE mothboard with the gig port. My pc has the evga X58 3 with gig too. My Netgear router confirms I'm connected at 1000 Full. Some settings that I have enabled are; Jumbo frames on my pc adaptor and my switches. Flow control is enabled on everything My pc is Win 7 64bit On my netgear rounter, the only settings to change are RIP direction - which is set to BOTH. The other setings is RIP version, which is disabled. I have both my pc and unraid server directly connected to the Netgear N900 router. I'm running v5 rc6 8168 TEST Any idea why my speeds are down?
  22. Thanks, I'll go check that. I guess the Simplefeatures was writing the logs to boot/logs So if I understand correctly, you have to go get the logs BEFORE you restart in the var/ directory because they are wipped on a reboot, correct? If that is true, I'll have to wait for another incident so I can get the live logs.
  23. Ok, thanks Joe. I had already rebooted and that is how I got my shares back, so I guess the logs didn't write to boot\logs and that timeframe is gone. I guess I'll have to wait and see if this issue happens again, and next time I will get those var\logs before rebooting. What is the size before they get rotated out? And, does it write the log to \boot\logs\ when it does that? So, the server will write the live logs to var\logs while the server is up and running. Then when shutting down it writes them to boot/logs/ folder on the flash drive, is that correct? I'm just trying to understand the flow so I can watch for this to happen again. Thanks!
