  1. From that it appears the MTU is staying at 1500 now. What does ifconfig say? It should tell you what the MTU is set at.... Still no change on accessing the browser? Have you by chance tried a different browser?
  2. Ok, because unraid resides in ram, everytime you reboot any changes to the OS get wiped out. The change i had you make to dhcpcd.conf were included. When you initially made the change did you restart or did you just run the command and then try again? I'd need a syslog after making the change but without a reboot. What I was after was to see if the MTU was still being set at 576
  3. If it has worked this long and all of a sudden stopped working, I would assume that it is on the ISP's end. But that does warrant asking the question (and I should have): "Have you changed anything with your network lately"
  4. None that I know of, but the delayed feature of a "cache pool" will provide fault tolerance. It was slated for release with v5.0 but was pushed back.
  5. Instead of setting a threshold, exclude it from the share and test that way.
  6. If its r8168 there shouldn't be an issue. Try this, telnet in and type this: cd /etc/ mc press the down arrow until you get to dhcpcd.conf "F4" to edit press down arrow until you get to "option interface_mtu" enter a # at the front of the line to comment that out. Press F2 to save /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart Note this is a shot in the dark. From what I'm able to tell it looks like the MTU being set so low is causing issues. Who is your ISP?
  7. Ok, so the issue seems it is with unraid deciding what disk to use and not so much the mover script... Sadly I haven't explored that far into unraid so someone else will have to continue
  8. Ok, so your cache drive is currently empty, was hoping there was something there that might tell why everything is going to disk 5. Did you answer my first question?
  9. type lsmod at the terminal and see if "r8169" shows up in the list. The driver for that chipset is buggy, and there were a lot of problems in rc8a with it. I'd recommend upgrading to 5.0 final.
  10. So if you write directly to /mnt/user/TV it goes to a different drive but letting the mover do it everything goes to disk 5? Just asking for clarification... Can you show a "ls" of /mnt/cache ?
  11. The biggest flaw of trayless cages is some don't hold the drives as good as trays, especially lower quality (lower cost) versions. Convenience vs security.
  12. If you reboot either with the powerdown add-on script or from the unraid web GUI the plugin catches the unmount event from unraid and sends the termination signal to the app, which tells the process to shutdown. If that doesn't work the plugin sends a sigkill which uncleanly terminates the process. Note it only does this if the original termination fails. Sab is slightly different in that the plugin sends a signal to sabs API to signal a shutdown, if that fails the termination signal and finally the sigkill. I'm thinking of rewriting Sickbeard to do the same since the API is more fleshed out now... Id have to check if couchpotato has an API signal for shutdown. So in short, rebooting or taking the array offline will cause the plugin to try and cleanly shutdown the app and as a fallback will force kill the process.
  13. Screen is a separate program than the preclear script. The instructions say to use screen so if you close the telnet window the preclear can still run in the background
  14. Unless you have a cache drive installed you will not see the option. If you have the space to install a drive for cache, and drives laying around like you said, it would be a wise investment to install one. Plex makes a lot of writes when transcoding which is additional wear on your parity and data drives. A second flash drive wouldn't be a good option for the same reason, all of the small writes to the flash drive could greatly shorten its lifespan. Not to mention depending on the size of your library the plex directories can get quite large.
  15. Can't speak directly to MySQL, but the other five should work fine, there is nothing SF dependant in any of them.... There is not a SF build for the latest release yet, but the "look" of SF has been ported to the beta Webgui, few or none of the "features" have been yet.
  16. I knew I was low cladding in the computer chair department, but I didn't think by that much! I don't do a lot at my "workstation" anymore, just the odd stuff that I can't do from my laptop and my recliner. But my computer chair happens to be a closeout Walmart special camping chair, complete with dual cup holders. Cost me $5 and I've had it for 6-7 years now. How many if you can say your pc chair has been to campgrounds, ball games and concerts? Lol. But since I do most of my pc work from the recliner, I guess its only fair I use that cost as how much I spent on a pc chair... $1500.
  17. Windows loves to cleanup broken shortcuts, google windows delete broken shortcut to find the solution. You can also set windows to always wait for network connection and it should ease your problem. Not sure why this affects some users and not others, my friend has the exact same pc as me and he had the same problem, I've never experienced it though.
  18. I run a script that adds a cronjob to check for internet access and restart the services if it is down, it would be the equivalent of the command posted by Joe L., just it would run by itself. I had to do this as a workaround for my network card dropping connection every once in a while. I can send you the script if the current solution doesn't solve your problem.
  19. Ok guys, this is a thread for the Release Plan. Take the how many drives per version debate elsewhere please. The question has been asked before and there wasn't such a....tempered response. Personally I think it'd be nice as well (only since the pro # has gone up), but I'm fine with the pay structure and disk count as it is too. Rick.p, its not really paying $70 for one more drive, your getting user security (access restrictions) and the use of the cache drive. Whether or not you need those features, those are available and essentially what you are paying for. Plus, we need to support the developer . That being said, I understand the position of limited funds, especially disability. I have a very close friend who I've known since I was ~4 who is disabled, it is very rough on him.
  20. There were some released by another company last year, at the tune of $3000 a pop. From what I've read the attempts in the past have had a high failure rate. My hopes for Kingston are high though!
  21. Here's one for you. So your server is maxed out on sata ports, but you have 10 USB ports feeling lonely? Kingston has a fix for you! Hows a 1TB flashdrive sound? http://techgage.com/news/ces-2013-kingstons-hyperx-predator-flash-drives-go-to-1tb-yes-1tb/
