I've just upgraded to 6.2 rc2 to get the new cache pool system working (I needed 6.2 due to the device number limits) However after the upgrade, the web ui seems very slow when browsing around the menus (around 5-10 seconds for a page to load) and I keep getting the following errors in the log. Jul 24 19:51:22 Unraid avahi-daemon[23719]: Failed to find user 'avahi'.

I'm still running mine after 3 years. I've replaced a few of the fans but left the PSU's in there (its in a cupboard under the stairs so have now got use to the noise). Up to 26Tb in storage in it so far and on Unraid 6 with crashplan, plex, sab, sickbeard and couchpotato all running in docker and then a couple of test Vm's that I run when needed. I did upgrade the ram to 24gb to help support those as well. Only thing I never tracked down is the slow speed of the parity checks but they do completed after 18 hours so haven't worried about it so far.

Sounds like a similar build to mine. I am using a 24 bay rack mount server case with dual Opteron 2212 processors (6 cores @ 1.8ghz each) and 24Gb of ECC ram. Server cost me $200 (and $400 to ship it to the UK), with an additional £50 to add the 2nd processor and increase the ram. With this, I have been able to stream out to 7 devices so far, including 2 surface tablets, 2 mobile phones, a samsung TV, the WD box and a friends pc via the web app. Worked well but was more bottled necked via the cache drive's write speed via the cpu power in the end. I use Plex DNLA Service for streaming out to a projector (an Epson TW-5900 in my case) but went down the WD Tv-live box to act as a simple player. This use to connect direct to my unraid server shares but due to issues scrolling through the large lists of folders, I switched it over to the DNLA stream from Plex. Still waiting on a Plex app for it so wouldn't recommend it at the moment unless you are happy with text only lists. Total space is at 24Tb at the moment, with a 3Tb parity drive, a 2Tb cache drive and a mix of 1tb, 2tb and a single 3tb data drives. The plan will be to upgrade the 1Tb drives up to 3Tb drives as they fail, giving me around 60+Tb of storage in the end. Hope that helps.

Just got home and I can still access the server via the webgui so the downgrade to beta10a does appear to resolve the issue.

Server has 24Gb of memory, all of which is ECC. 5 docker images are installed with no plugins. The docker image is also newly created as of a week ago as I just transferred all the old plugins over to the new docker images. Memory was tested about 2 weeks ago for 36 hours with no issues found. Cheers R

Nope. I've tried IE, Firefox and opera but no joy. I can get access to unmenu which allows me to stop the array but when I do, I can not get access to the server via telnet or ssh and I get kicked off unmenu as well. I have to run shutdown -r now via a local command in order to get access. I've downgrade to beta 10a to see if the same problem exists there.

Is anyone else having issues with emhttp crashing on beta14? I upgraded from beta10a at the weekend after converting all my drives over to xfs but since then, I am unable to access the website after a few hours. Syslog doesn't seem to show anything and the site does come back up after a reboot. syslog.zip

I'll take a look at the beta then but with the amount of data stored, ita difficult to fully back up the media elsewhere.

Recently, my server has been crashed and taking down all websites and user shares, leaving only telnet running although this is also 50/50 if it remains. I end up having to run a shutdown -r now command in order to get the server to reboot. I have been having this issue for a few days now but haave managed to get the syslog tonight on the latest crash. In the log, the server crash is listed at 19:42:27 where java invoked oom-killer and continues to do so until the server is rebooted. Does anyone know how to resolve this as my searches on here are not bringing me any answers. The system : Supermicro h8dme-2 with twin 6 core opteron 2419 processors and 24gb of ram. Drives : 1 x 2tb Parity, 1 x 2tb cache and 20 data drives between 1 and 2tbs. Total space of around 22Tb. Unraid version : 5.0 Final Plugins : Sickbeard, Sab, Plex, Crashplan, APC UPS and Cache Directories (this one is disabled at the moment) Thanks for the help. Syslog is attached. syslog.zip

Getting the issue here on 5.0 i386. I'm running 8Gb of memory with Sab, sickbeard, crashplan and cache_dir plugins. Cheers Ryan

Firstly, apologies for having to post this but I am completed confused on how split levels work and how I am meant to use them (which is highly annoying ) I have 5 shares that I have configured but the data is copying all over the place when I start transferring it. The build is new so no issues if I have to start afresh as all the data is sat on my current desktop. So, my current share setup on my desktop is.... Films | <Film Title> | [Film Files] TV | <Series Title > | <Season> | [Files] Music | <Album> | [Files] Downloads | <Download Title> | [Files] Data | <Documents Folders> | [Files] I would like to use this same setup on unraid and have tried the following config but the files ended up being split up across multiple disks. Films - Split level 1, all disks included. Downloads - Split level 1, All disks included. Music - Split level 2, All disks included. TV - Split level 2, All disks included. Data - Split level 2, All disks included. Anyone have any idea where I went wrong on this? If it helps, I am running Unraid 5.0-Rc5 Pro. Thanks for your help.

as far as I can tell, that is where the noise is from. I going to look up at ordering up a couple of fan mates or PWM mates ( http://www.quietpc.com/products/casefanaccessories/fanmate2 ) to see if I can try and reduce the speed /noise of those fans.

I have the amd version of this server - took 10 days to make it over the pond but made it with just a bent corner. A few hits with a copper hammer and its all fine. Already updated the bios, got the dual 6 core processers installed and got it booted. My unraid key has got stuck in customs so been waiting for that for a while - fingers crossed it will be here in the next couple of weeks. I've unplugged the 60mm fans to see the reduction of noise and while it helped, the two radial fans on each side of the case helped a lot more. Just need to learn the system now and see how to get all the add ons and packages installed.

$253 for me.... still cheaper than getting a different 24 bay case.

I just order two 6 cores from the states and a socket F heatsink. Should be an easy enough install compared to a pc case. Just need to order the internal usb header and key, ready for the install.
