  1. So a quick update here... sever was fine for a few days again... last night (My time.. got a notification server was offline// meaning no internet connection/network connection) Syslog file went crazy with entries writing every second before that happened and also after it happened... the downtime for network was around Nov 10 00:20:00 > Nov 10 00:30:00 Sine notifications are delayed and not instant Attaching this (sorry huge) syslog file... any insight please. BTW my machine is an Dell r710 with HBA, 48GB of ram and 2CPUs.. which are mostly idle and ram barley used.. have a few containers running.. 2 vms currently shutdown as i was testing waters and als PI HOLE has since been shut down from here so all dockers are running in bridge/host mode none running on custom br0 network syslog-192.168.0.21.log
  2. So now the server went from a few hours to almost a week with no issues.. earlier this morning (my time) whilst not in use just running in the background it happened again.. was notified that server was not available (from uptime monitor) I when to its screen physically and took a photo of what was on it.. it was unresponsive to keyboard/mouse inputs.. was unable to get to it over network.. did a reboot and also extracted syslogo.. does not show anything happened.. last task was normal scheduled stuff early morning and then the restart procedure.. hope the photo from the servers screen helps in any way to help me solve the issue.. syslog-192.168.0.21.log
  3. Thanks, syslog server is now running.. waiting for next crash and will upload file.
  4. Hi Guys.. need your help.. Recently had my flash drive die on me and managed to recover config folder and replace it. After that i have experienced 3 times following.. dont know if its related to flash drive but just wanted to point out last change i made. 1) Unraid GUI not accessible 2) All other dockers and services become non accessible 3) I try to use CLI directly via keyboard/mouse even that is very slow.. even to simply login it takes ages 4) Tried to run diagnostics command.. it runs saying its saving it.. but took over 30 minutes and still keps saying that 5) Another time i tried to do a normal reboot from cli so as to not har shut down the server.. it says its starting the shutdown/reboot procedure and stays liek that. 6) Only thing that solves the issue is a hard reboot and then all is back to normal... until it does it again.. its happening randomly 12-24 hours apart Last it happened was last night.. just ran a full movie over plex in docker.. watched it all.. on my tv... a few minutes later i got notification via email that server is down ( i have a downtime checker that points to one of my reverse proxy sites hosted on the server). Time it happened before this it was like 3 am local time and i check that at the time there is nothing scheduled to run.. just to start and figure out why. Any ideas what i can do.. attaching diagnostics file i ran just now after last reboot was finished TIA alphaserver-diagnostics-20201025-0542.zip
  5. Done.. and also did my replace key all from gui/via email.. thanks for all your help guys im up and running again.... taking a backup NOW!
  6. So a quick update.. the non booting drive works in a windows pc.. should i try and copy all files make it a zip folder and do a flash to a nrw drive from zipped or make a new drive and just copy all files from config folder to the new one?
  7. OK will try and flash a new drive with a new install and copy config folder from bad usb drive to good one.
  8. Did not check the usb drive on another pc.. will do that.. IF it is recoverable..what files do i need to copy onto a new drive unraid drive to get back to how i was before please? If no i can run a live linux distro and be able to get the backup from the drives... how do i mount a drive as read only please?
  9. Hi, I woke up to a dead drive this morning and Unraid was not working. I am stupid enough to have never taken a screenshot of what drive is my paristy and which are others... I was also stupid to leave my flash drive backup on the array. What is best way to start fresh with a new drive and not loose array data or at least recover the flash drive backup file to restore from it.. which is also something i don't know how to do.. any help appreciated
  10. WOL Plugin on 6.8 Is broken.. the green icon is showing as a broken image and cant be pressed to WOL a pc... i tried to remove it, reinstall, cleared cache still wont work.
  11. Thanks so if its a new install, if i set docker and vm option to ENABLED after i set the appdata and domain folder to ONLY there is no need to do the mover bit.. and they will alway be on the cache ssd without array copying. I will use the plugin and script for backups What i didn't understand is the below.. why did you say that the new ones will be moved to the array.. i want all docker and vms to always stay on the cache ssd.
  12. Hi, I am setting up a brand new server with Unraid. I am a bit confused about docker containers and vm's. I want these to run of my SSD Cache and no from the array so that they have better performance. Should i set the APPDATA & DOMAIN shares Cache Settings to ONLY or PREFERED please. I am confused about this setting.. I want docker containers and vm's to always run from the SSD cache.. but at the same time maybe possibly make a copy to the protected array once a day if possible.. Thanks in advance
