  1. Dave, I haven't seen errors in the last week. 1. Boot ESXI from USB 2. I use the USB header on the MB 3. Reader Kingston FCR HS3 4. vmdk boot 5. 6.0 final Cannot say when errors were cleared as I did not really followed it. Dan USB Header (which would be pins on the motherboard, perhaps with a cable attached going to ports on a case), or USB Slot, which would be a USB port on the motherboard or USB. Also what speed was the header/port (usb2/3). I have one of these, or a very similar model (looks the same). So I can test it.

    Ask them for a bios that disables the floppy drive?
  3. Simply make the new shares cache only For the other shares set use cache to no
  4. Plop and vmdk both show this issue on esxi 6 on my mobo, which is an asrock v77 extreme 4. I've tried an atp nano and Kingston patriot flash drive under both scenarios.
  5. The ipmi port is for management of the server over the network, you need to use a LAN port
  6. What USB devices are available to your unRAID Guest? Are you passing through a complete USB bus, or just individual devices? Are they passed-through and dedicated, or are they shared and assigned at run-time? Are there USB 2.0 devices? USB 3.0 devices? John I'm only passing individual devices through. I'm not sure how to determine if they're dedicated (sorry about that), but I can't assign them to other guests, once they're assigned (so I assume they're dedicated). I've tried USB 2, and USB 3, with both PLOP and vmdk. The motherboard is an Asrock Z77 Extreme 4, and I've tried USB2 and USB3 ports, but the manual is less than helpful when it comes to identifying which ports belong to which controller. No matter what I do, rolling back to 6beta15 stops the problem. At this point I think it's probably a USB driver issue in the kernel, but that's just random speculation.
  7. What version of esxi are you running? I'm seeing the same thing on 6 Using ESXi 5.5. I saw the same behavior on all the RCs so far. Beta 15 and before was fine. Well that rules out rolling back to 5.5, thanks.

  10. Try from your PC via smb and see what speeds you get there. This will rule out the dns323. It's been a long time since I copied from my dns323 to get unRAID, but I recall seeing between 8-11 MB/s with large files. This was using a computer on the network to initiate the copy command.
  11. Running ESXi 6 I'm getting all sorts of USB resetting errors (browsing the USB device is slow as well), reverting to 6b15 makes them go away. I"m testing remotely, so can't go bare metal presently. I've tried 2 different USB devices, and mounting them via PLOP and VMDK - the issue is the same with both methods. I've attached a syslog, the resetting is near the end, the important lines are: May 16 06:01:37 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:01:37 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:02:21 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:02:21 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:03:12 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:03:12 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:03:48 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:03:48 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:04:24 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:04:24 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:05:00 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:05:00 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) May 16 06:05:51 phatstore kernel: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci May 16 06:05:51 phatstore kernel: sd 3:0:0:0: [sdj] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB) This is the physical device mapped to the guest. I've tried both usb types ehci+uhci and xhci. I do have one question, why is this being released as an RC considering there's a very different kernel than has been used on any of the previous betas? I did find this regarding usb power settings for Arch, but have no idea if it is in any way responsible for the issue I'm encountering: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/139009/usb-error-110-power-exceeded-but-works-when-reconnecting I just checked, Kernel 4.02 was released on May 7, 2015. Including it in the RC doesn't make a lot of sense. syslog-unraid.txt
  12. Since Xen has been dropped, it probably shouldn't show up on the boot menu. I upgraded from 6b15 via the plugin update feature, but it's still showing on boot.
  13. Had the exact same thing. And the recycle bin plugin or vmware tools plugin was causing repeating emhttp issues (I think - have to restart to double check)
  14. Try clearing your cache or another browser.
  15. If you boot via plop (no vmdk) the boot takes about 5 minutes
  16. Way to solve that is to periodically have kodi export your database to individual files (and overwrite them). Then when you create your new database and import the media files, there's an option in advancedsettings.xml to also import your watched status There's also trakt.tv which can sync with Kodi and then you have an offline backup which kept crashing kodi last time i used that POS plugin. It's working for me with kodi and plex on windows (and iOS / Android clients for plex), there was a period that trakt changed the API within the last 6 months that broke things, but it's working for me now. Can't speak to how it works on other platforms

  18. What plugins or addons are you running? 1.5GB of RAM should be more than enough for unRAID as long as nothing else is running. Regarding swap memory, Linux won't use it unless it's necessary AFAIK, but will fill actual ram by caching things and swapping out when necessary. See http://www.linuxatemyram.com/
  19. If it's a multicard reader each slot could potentially be counted as a drive.
  20. Hi Rick, so far so good with the G4? I'm looking to get another mobilelite (already have two G3s) but the G3s are not available anymore. PS: How does Tom know whether a GUID is unique or not? Buy more than one reader and compare? He'd know for sure if he ever got a request with a guid already in what I assume is a database of guids and licences
