August 12, 20214 yr This question has 3 parts,... 1) I have UnRaid set to run parity checks once a m0onth on the first day of the month. So why is it running parity checks more often than that? )sometimes every several days) 2) If I want to set my UnRaid to run parity checks on a quarterly basis on the first Sunday of the month (ie. Jan 1, Apr 1, July1, Oct 1) How would I adjust the settings? When I tried that it wound up doing it on the first Sunday of the month, every month. 3) When I load files onto my UnRaid server is the parity adjusted on my two parity drives at the same time? I appreciate the help..
