  1. I found the issue Squid. Pure pebkac. I have a 4 port kvm with single button switch that switches between my work laptop, vm, and unraid rig. Work on port 1 VM on port 3 Unraid on port 4 So 2 quick taps without looking takes me from work to vm or back. If vm is asleep ctrl-alt-del wakes it up. Unless 2 quick taps was actually 3 which means I’m connected to my unraid rig in which case it triggers a reboot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I wish it was. In thinking maybe I kicked the plug or something. No kids, no pets in the study. It's a mystery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. At about 4:30ish my server rebooted unexpectedly. What do I check for in the logs? tower-diagnostics-20220331-1816.zip
  4. Similar to the Steam library https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam Benefits. Will allow users to instantly guage whether their proposed hardware is being used with Unraid if we can see how users utilize hardware in their builds. Beneficial to developers as they might have a better understanding of how software should be optimized.
  5. solved! Cpu pinning. I pinned my containers to 2 cpus and gave my vm 6 it works now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Hi, I followed space invaders video, and the passthrough of the 1030 GPU and usb controller was seamless. This won't be a gaming pc for me, just general use, but I still want to use my ultra wide monitor, so I got the Nvidia MSI GT1030 as my graphics card. Hopefully this was not a mistake. My problem is that the display stutters, is slow, drags, nothing smooth about it, this is just general use, not gaming. So: - It passes through fine, using either DisplayPort or HDMI. The graphics looks fine, if I don't open a browser. - When I try to load YouTube, the video buffers extremely slow, and playback is choppy, - Windows menu, mouse movement is jittery and display lags. 1. I've updated to the latest version of the Nvidia drivers. 2. I don't think I need to pass through VBIOS, as I don't have an issue with blank screen. 3. For some reason, even though I choose NVIDIA as my primary graphics card in VM settings, it defaults to secondary. Inside windows when I want to adjust my display, it always looks for a second screen, which is IF I use VNC, which I don't start... don't know if this is relevant. Further notes. - In my BIOS I have my IGPU set as primary, NVIDIA set as secondary. - I do a Windows hardware performance check in the windows box (that old tool that was available with win 7), (CPU = 9, Memory = 9, Disk = 9, Display = 2). This is all probably related. - I ran the msi patch and enabled anything that says GPU, no change. --------- Solved - It was GPU pinning. tower-diagnostics-20201201-2209.zip Any help at all will be much appreciated.
  7. Solved - crappy usb drive it looks like. Changed the usb and it’s been clean for a few weeks now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Is it possible to get the hardware profile uploaded by users? I would like to collate the information into a publicly accessible Grafana or similar dashboard to give Unraid users a view of what hardware other people are running. This would end questions like "is this GPU compatible" or "this piece of kit I want to buy" and would just generally be cool information. We can also expand this information into swapping or deals channels for user at a later stage? Kind Regards, George
  9. I figured it out! So I had this situation where my Samsung TV Plex client wouldn't recognise my Plex server. Just couldn't figure it out. The DHCP server automatically assigned an IP address which was fine for about a year. DHCP address - 192.168.86.26 But what I didn't think about was that I created a wireguard client that also assigned this IP address as valid in its range. And when I tried to create a VM it was also assigning this IP address. A quick cleanup later and everything works again.
  10. Well, as per Spaceinvaderone's vid, I created a new network for the Jitsi containers. It should just my my standard router delivering DHCP. I wonder if I should try to put my VM's on their own network, how would I do that?
  11. I know there are a lot of posts on bad USB drives on here, just basically getting rid of some frustration. I've had my build up for close to a year now. In that time I have not been able to once (ok, I lie, I've had 3 successes) do a clean shutdown or a clean reboot of my system. Honestly, every single time I bring it down, I get a kernel panic on startup. Then I have to, build a new key (annoying my wife because I have to use her windows laptop, I've only got Macs and the USB creator doesn't work anymore) Copy my last backed up config to the drive. Start up and let it run through a whole new parity check. Today it was LZMA is corrupt, a hard reboot of the system and kernel panic. I'm always on the latest version. 6.8.3 in this case. I've run a 48hour memtest+. No issues. The thing is I'm not learning from my mistakes. I can't remember in which forum I read this, but the key to doing a backup of the flash drive, is to do it when the array is stopped, this stops the array from wanting to do a parity check after my unclean shutdowns. Also: This Sandisk Cruzer Blade of mine must be corrupt, so today I dug an old 4GB unknown name USB from a drawer and I moved my licence.... I'll have to see how it holds up. Interestingly, I had a look at the config file in my now corrupted boot up disk. What went wrong with that? This is maybe one for the devs: My cache disk assignment was all wrong in it. I have 2 disks in a raid 0 (don't hate me, I needed the space), but the assignment shows only one disk and it puts the second one in unassigned devices. Rant over. I'm thinking I should just never shut it down again. Ps. My shutdown procedure: - disable docker service. - spin down array - check open files for anything blocking - reboot -cry
  12. I had this issue. I switched to VNC viewer (Free) and just set a vnc password in your VM setup before you start it. I think my problem was changing my default ports around.
  13. I'm struggling to create linux VM's. I've tried a few different images, but all seem to fail out due to networking issues I think. Ubuntu, Lubuntu, arch. All fail. I've created VM's before without an issue, but since I last created a VM I have done the following: Installed Wireguard and Pihole side by side (so changed my server ports) Installed Letsencrypt Create a new network for Jitsi. None of these might be related, however maybe I missed something in there? I've attached the log file for the error I'm getting during the VM creation as well as my server diagnostics. Anything I'm doing wrong? tower-diagnostics-20200511-1637.zip
  14. I installed Jitsi, as per the instructional video of SpaceInvaderOne. I now see that there are new images available for Jitsi, but how do you update them inside Portainer? I've done a couple of google searches but all I see are arguments about rebuilding the image vs recreating the image and how you should do neither and I'm confused.
  15. So my wireguard setup (and PiHole) work perfectly. When I connect with my phone I can see my internal network as well as browse the web. Now is it possible to set up an internal port forward on my Unraid server, so my phone can access the vpn via Privoxy (port 8118). If it helps, in wireguard my peer ip is defined as 192.168.86.26.
  16. He didn't answer, but I had the same issue this morning. Basically my problem was that in the wireguard config I set my local tunnel address to the router gateway rather than my Unraid server. Setting it to the server sorts it!
  17. Funny that. There was something stopping it from unmounting successfully. It said disk1 was still in use. Fuser command said it was mount command holding it up. Nothing else running. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Same thing. It still corrupts. I just installed the button to see if that would make a difference. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. So I ran a 12 hour memtest yesterday and there were no issues reported. I'm starting to wonder if my USB boot stick is bad. To clarify how I shut down: 1. I stop all my dockers. 2. I stop all my vm's (I only have 3 linux ones active all the time) 3. I make sure I have no shells open 4. I hit the power button provided by the Dynamix buttons plugin. Then I leave the machine for 30 minutes or so, but still it does not shut down. The last message I see via the attached monitor is normally something like (boot unmounted). But I have to still press the power button and then on next boot I have to recreate the USB key.
  20. After yet ANOTHER bad restart (lets not discuss it here) I have a problem with my docker services and in syslog I see a lot of messages saying "docker port 6 entered blocking state, disabled state" So after the bad restart: I disabled docker, deleted the image file, enabled it, and rebuild my apps from previous installed. I can access all of my dockers without issues, but with Sonarr for example, It can't resolve external services, for example Sonarr log gives me a 404 on this: http://skyhook.sonarr.tv/v1/tvdb/search/en/?term=alias, but curl -I works fine from the shell. Can you guys help me out? tower-diagnostics-20200502-1227.zip
  21. 6.8.3 I had a kernel panic during preclear disk I think. I was clearing a spinning rust 2TB seagate and a SSD at the same time. I was doing this during a parity check (unclean shutdown) not sure if that's wise.... I've included my diagnostic and my syslog file here, can somebody shed a bit of light for me? Interesting was that the gui was still available, but it didn't show any array information. All my dockers were up, and accessible, but not the docker tab itself. I had to hold down the power button to reboot as the option was not on the gui. The parity check is running now again. The kernel panic starts at 21:13:22 Apr 29th. Thanks a bunch guys. Archive.zip
  22. Hi I've downloaded the new USB creator tool for MAC, and in the past it's worked fine. However suddenly I get a setugid() error. I'm not sure if it's to do with a new OSX update, however it did stop working on both my desktop and MacBook Pro. Windows still work. Any ideas what I can do to fix it?
