  1. Hello all, I am currently running unraid Version: 6.12.6 and everything is connected as expected in my unraid connect. However, I changed the IP address to my machine and now the ip on unraid connect will not update but everything else is updated on my machine. What do I need to do in order to update this?
  2. So update, on my other unraid server - it is an asus x99 deluxe ii - i am running an LSI 9201-8i. So i took that and plugged it into my intel server within slot 2 of my riser card and attached to velociraptor HDDs into it. viola they both show up. I am assuming it is because this card has a PEX chip, which i think is under the heat sink.
  3. I give up on this stuff. I have tried in all three slots on the riser card with a new startech DUAL-M2-PCIE-CARD-B that is pcie 4.0 x8 as we talked about. It works but only the first slot is recognized of the two. So I took out the second m.2 stick from the startech card and placed it in a pcie 3.0 x1 card that I had laying around and placed that in the 3rd slot of the riser with the startech in the 1st slot. That works and both m.2's show up now in unraid. I do not understand what is going on. If we are going way beyond your capabilities, please let me know. I do need to try reddit again. Also do my ssd's need to be pcie 3.0? because they are 4.0. Also i changed all three slot bifurcation settings to default.
  4. Ok, so I think I am actually understanding this stuff now. Basically, if the card was a x8 interface (electrical) with a x16 slot (mechanical) then it would work in the top two slots.
  5. you have been most helpful and I would love to pick your brain some more. If plugging the asus card into my x16 slot on the server board works, then why doesnt the same function occur with the riser card within the 1st two slots of the server board? Attached is a page from the TPS showing x8 elec and x16 mech for the 3 slot riser card and attached is a bios screen shot. the risercard is populated in riser slot 1, which makes it not show up in the bios. This happens when i switch it to riser slot two, then 1 and 3 show up.
  6. So just to clarify, the first two slots are riser slots and the 3rd is x16 slot. I plugged the asus card directly into the third slot, powered it on, and now the drives are missing. This is wierd.
  7. So would i need to plug in the asus pcie directly into the slot of the motherboard? Or can i continue to use the riser card that I bought and plug the asus pcie into the riser? or does the riser need to have bifurcation built in (if this if what you are saying?) Something like this EBAY RISER CARD
  8. So here is the thing, A great multithreading CPU will be great and have 64Gb+ is great to run containers and VM's. Second, having hard drive correlated with what you want will pay dividends (Ex, 1x 20TB for media, 1x for appdata, etc) because you do not to have everything spread across all your hard drives; now your making reading and writing slower. Build pools, but i would have a parity drive for those as well. You said minecraft, you will need a really FAST SSD or NVMe because of reads and writes. Here is a great case to house your HD's: Fractal 7XL Here is a SAS card with sata connectors: LSI 9201-8i
  9. Hello everyone, So i have some questions that perhaps people could help me understand. I would like to know the following: If buying a cpu that has a high single core performance (lets say newer generation) that has p cores and e cores, does that mean each p core separately is amazing; for instance if i assign 1 p core for a vm and another p core for a minecraft game? Now lets say i have an older cpu (such as an intel core i7 6950x) that does not have p cores, does each core still peak separately from each other or does that cpu need those cores together? my daughter has the following: and even though it says 3.5ghz with core 0, do the other three cores just suck? Maybe i have answered my own question, but just want some people to help me break it down. Thanks.
  10. buy some crap gpu card to use and post with that. This is what i use EVGA GEFORCE GT 730. But I dont know if this will work because you may have to switch the output in the bios, which i am assuming you cannot get into because of the video output. But it is worth a try if you have an extra gpu laying around. You could also try to find a remote management at BIOS/UEFI level.
  11. Hey, I have not used starlink, but it seems like it is just a modem and your EERO 6+ is a wifi router; if i understand correctly. This may not help, but may get the wheels turning. I have a domain name as well and I use cloudflare for DNS services. On my unraid machine, i have nginx proxy manager running for reverse proxy and that gets forwarded to the correct containers. Example: cloudflare DNS has 123.org (proxy turned on) as my domain from another site, which points to my IP from Starlink. from there, I log into eero and port forward 443 to nginx proxy manager; which is a container on unraid. On nginx proxy man, i set up a proxy domain 123.org and tell it to forward that traffic to next cloud container ip with port 80 and select my SSL cert i set up using my crt and key from cloudflare. Side note, this established a secure connection between cloudflare and your proxy man. I also have a cloudflare ddns container running to update cloudflare with my IP address so i do not have to manually do it. Remember this though, VPN like openvpn is a tunneling service to resources on your network; such as remote desktop a router file share, etc. Cloudflare is an HTTP/S service for poxy. Good thing for you is that nextcloud states it supports nginx proxy man. Another note for cloudflare, rather than using 123.org, just create CNAMEs like plex.123.org and cloud.123.org and the targets are 123.org. then on nginx proxy man, just add the sub domains and point them to the containers ip. AGAIN OPEN PORT 80 AND 443 on your router and point the ip to nginx proxy man.
  12. I didnt have hang ups like you did, my some of my links were dead on docker and the app store was rather laggy. There are a lot of folks in the forums complaining of the new updates from 6.11 to 6.12.x and i had similar issues. I was forced to downgrade back to 6.11.5 and everything works as normal. Sorry if this does not help, but you may have to resort back to 6.11.5 until things are worked out.
  13. Fixed it, just downgraded to 6.11.5. Everything works now.
  14. Hello all, I have a question and would like some assistance on this. I have just installed 6.12.3 and then rebooted my computer. During the reboot, I went into bios to make sure my computer was posting ok; sometimes it doesn't post after a months of not restarting then performed a shutdown. At this time, I installed a SAS card that I just received in the mail (LSI 9201-8i) that I saw LTT using, rebooted, the card configured itself, then booted to the USB. There were zero errors booting, logged in, started the array with all drives showing, and then went to the docker page to start some containers. This is where I noticed that some of the links were not working (such as start, stop, pause, restart) but the webui, edit, console links were working just fine. My file share work as intended, the webui of the started apps work just fine but those prementioned links are dead. Is there something I need to do to fix this. Im not a real big docker expert and this is more of a specialized question for this forum. Also, when I enable advanced view, i can select delete on orphan images, but then when i click on "Yes, delete it" nothing works. thank you in advanced! tower-diagnostics-20230901-1858.zip

    Not really a bad Idea. Here is a great video to compare AMD and Intel to figure out your needs when it comes to work or play The ACTUAL Difference Between Intel and AMD I ran two VM W11 instances on my unraid that was utilizing (3 cores/each) from a i7 5930k and (16gb/per) from my 32gb ram and it as decent (each VM had a GTX 770 4GB). However, even though most docker containers will not utilize the CPU, unraid will need a core or so and you will need more ram for docker containers as well. We were not creating heavy workloads so things did run smooth for the most part, the obviously the more cores the better. Also, I added a PCIE type C expansion card to run hubs rather than miles of USB cables to my workstations (PCI Express to 4-Port Type C HUB) and just ran extended HDMI cables. Another useful thing I switched to was the implementation of a SAS card (not raid card) to use more hard drives and better cable management. And i know you want a gaming type mother board, but to get one with more PCIE slots would be better because you are not using bridging them and you can add more down the like, such as audio controllers as well or ethernet ports. there is also a pretty cool case close to your price that can hold more hard drives (Fractal Design Define 7 XL Black Brushed Aluminum) Sorry if this was not much help, but some outside thoughts gets the gears moving.
  16. I had to uninstall the virtual GPU, then load the driver from the vfio image. Then my GPU was able to be seen and then I was able to install my drivers.
