TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) I am brand new to unraid and ZFS of is started of by following Linus tech tips and level 1 techs how to's and walkthroughs I've had to set both of them up. Everything seemed to be going smooth. Other than my file transfers not liking me changing stuff in unraid everything seems to be going fine until I tried to install Plex. It would keep hanging on getting the latest version of plex and would lock up unraid to the point where I couldn't shut it down or restart it properly. I noticed in the system log that about every second I get this error. Oct 17 19:30:20 AndrewCityHall emhttpd: error: share_luks_status, 5995: Operation not supported (95): getxattr: /mnt/user/Enterprise Oct 17 19:30:20 AndrewCityHall emhttpd: error: share_luks_status, 5995: Operation not supported (95): getxattr: /mnt/user/storage AndrewCityHall= unraid server name storage & Enterprise = serpent zpools I don't know if my problem with Plex is related to this problem but I'm guessing I need to fix this. In the unraid settings I have successfully moved everything to my "storage" zpool (mirrored nvme drives). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

itimpi Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 You are likely to get better informed feedback if you attach your systems diagnostics zip file (obtained via Tools->Diagnostics) to your NEXT post. Quote Link to comment

itimpi Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Looks like that problem is related to trying to do things on the small flash drive that is the only drive in the array. I assume that this is just a dummy drive to enable the array to be started? Quote Link to comment
TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 18, 2021 Author Share Posted October 18, 2021 Yea is just to get the array to be started. I can try installing a 1tb HDD that i have, but it will not have any parity. Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 You seem to have another USB flash drive as parity - this seems a waste if it disk1 is just a dummy. You might be able to clear any issues relating to the dummy drive by reformatting it as described here in the online documentation that can be accessed via the Manual link at the bottom of the Unraid GUI. In fact thinking about it I am not sure a dummy drive even needs to be formatted to allow the array to start other than to eliminate Unraid offering that option on the Main tab. Quote Link to comment
TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 18, 2021 Author Share Posted October 18, 2021 Thank you so much!!! I installed a larger dummy disk an everything is running smooth now. Quote Link to comment
TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 24, 2021 Author Share Posted October 24, 2021 Well it is back 🙃. After getting everything working I realize Newegg had sent me a drive with signs that it was going to fail early so I've had the server off for awhile. Seagate sent me a drive and I installed it into the machine. Pretty much everything broke I was able to restore the network shares I got Dockors started but I've lost my Plex server. VMs aren't currently liking their status of missing some file directories. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated andrewcityhall-diagnostics-20211024-0000.zip Quote Link to comment
jonp Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Ok, so you're going to have to walk us through step-by-step what you did to get to where you're at and exactly where things fell apart. This isn't a standard configuration that we support just yet, but we can probably figure it out if you can catch us up as to what you're trying to do here. Quote Link to comment
TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 I was initially having this problem while I was running two flash drives as an unraid array. @itimpi recommended that I swapped out the dummy usb drives that I was using. That solved my problem initially. The config was: One drive (1TB) unprotected unraid array. With the main storage being ran by ZFS. Two separate zpools, "Enterprise" four 16TB and "storage" two m.2 drives. What led me to finding this error a is the inability to create a Plex Docker. The operation would fail at some point and hang the entire system or at least prevent me from restarting and shutting it down from the web portal. However, replacing the dummy drive with a larger dummy drive fixed my problem initially. Unfortunately, I had received a dying on arrival drive. So I wasn't running a degraded array I shut the server down until I received the replacement drive. I set up a RMA with Seagate and once received I plugged it into an additional SATA port on my motherboard leaving the defective drive in. I started up the server and it seems like a lot of stuff broke mostly occurring with the user shares and it losing its connections the to the ZFS drives. I was able to fix all of that and make the docker containers and vm's happy. However, I'm now back where I started with the original problem and am unable to recreate my Plex docker. Hardware update and recap: -zpool "Enterprise" four 16TB -zpool "storage" two m.2 drives -replacement 16 terabyte hard drive (all five are being detected perfectly fine and I purchased the highest-level license right of the gate) -two internal 1TD hard drives connected via USB as the unraid array. I did add a second drive for a proper parity drive as an idea to troubleshoot the problem Any ideas of what it could be or things I could try? andrewcityhall-diagnostics-20211025-2341.zip Quote Link to comment
jonp Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Where are you installing Plex exactly? If its in a Docker container, do you have your Docker loopback file also located on the flash? You probably want to try moving all of that to one of your ZFS pools. Using a flash drive for loopback images or containers in general is probably unwise. Quote Link to comment
TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Other than the unraid boot drive I'm not still running any other flash drives. Right now I have: Docker vDisk location: /mnt/user/storage/unraid/docker/docker.img Default appdata storage location: /mnt/user/storage/unraid/appdata/ I disable the doctor's and vm's and the error is still occurring every second.

What is /mnt/user/storage? Looks like a mount point, how did you create it? Quote Link to comment

TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 That's what I initially I'm using them for. So should I make an additional mounting point on the disc? What would be the best practice in my case? Quote Link to comment
jonp Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 You can create mount points under /mnt, but not /mnt/user. Quote Link to comment

TheAndrewGilbert Posted October 28, 2021 Author Share Posted October 28, 2021 I think I've figured out how to fix the shares but now I have the problem of I can't create my Plex docker. Quote Link to comment
