    Shamefull question - What do you mean by standard plex backup tasks?

     

     

    Within the settings of the PMS, there is a Scheduled Task "Backup database every three days".  This by default just makes a copy of the database and adds a date to the end of the name.  So if you need to restore the database due - you delete the broken one and rename the backup (or copy with the correct name).

  2. Check the Plex docker logs - if its stopped at "Starting Plex Media Server" and goes no further.. The Plex database is broken - restore from a backup (if you run the standard plex backup tasks its just a simple rename of files) - restart the docker.  The database is stored within appdata - so even if you did a docker file rebuild the database is still as it was.

  3. I to would love some sort of official acknowledgment of the issue.  While its an inexpensive product, its still good to hear that an issue is being worked on.  Customers complained about Flexraid and its lack of responsiveness to issues - and look at where that product ended up... and in all fairness I would still be running it if the company hadn't died (some of my machines is still running it, but in the process of being decommissioned now)  Was about to dive into a few more licenses for Unraid but holding off for now due to this issue and mainly - lack of acknowledgement.

  4. Add me to the list as well - 6.6.7 and all is well - 6.7.x and it all turns to custard - there are a number of threads on this now.. copying a single file between disks or writing to the array via SMB should not slow the disk access down to the point where docker and VM's die and stop responding - this is not heavy IO - its a single file.  

     

    I personally have not purchased unraid yet - and maybe not looking at the current state and lack of interest from the devs around this - but i've given it a lot of time for something that really shouldn't require messing around this much, Freenas - I can hammer the array while running on a low end CPU in a first gen HP microserver - and dockers dont stop responding - unraid 6.7 with a way more powerful CPU, more RAM, tried different controllers (SAS and SATA) complete with SAS and SATA disks thus different cables etc - just doesn't perform.. so do i buy into unraid but run 6.6.x and hope that what ever is busted in 6.7.x is fixed.. this is a paid product - not a freebie which you can sorta give a little slack too.. I dont even have this sort of issue with the now dead FlexRAID (in which the array works is very similar to unraid with all parity to a single disk)
