February 3, 20242 yr Issues with unRAID, may need to look elsewhere. Does anyone have an optimization guide for LAN and maybe HDD? System ``` 2x Intel E5-2690 V3 2.60Ghz 12 Cores cpu (Total 24 cores) 128Gb DDR4 ECC REG Memory 24 bay 2.5" caddy SFF on 9211-8i HbA controller ``` Issue 1 The server goes 100% unresponsive when I launch a new VM or Container until it finishes the creation. This one was bad yesterday, not as bad today. No idea why Issue 2 Why with - 3 Ubuntu Servers - 5 Mac - 2 Windows - 4 Synology NAS All doing SMB/CIFS that **NOW I NEED TO CHANGE SMB SETTINGS** to work with unRAID? Ubuntu works out of the box, is FREE and unRAID will cost me $120, and is also community supported? If I mount a share off of unRAID to Mac Studio M1 Ultra @ 10G, and then try to move an Ubuntu ISO it never completes. Reboot the MAC still can not complete the transfer. The first transfer attempt took 14 min, and the second attempt took under 2, but nether 'completed' and hung the FINDER app on Mac. Issue 3 Most of this is over, but what stupid default settings! - Docker ON - VM ON - all interfaces in an Aggregate Group Boot up, find the IP, figure out how to disable the Docker and VM, so that the LAN connections can be edited, then finally go back and turn things on? Who wants 2x 1GE and 2x 10GE all in the same aggregate / br group, that is insanely stupid Issue 4 I am getting about 150Mb/s (18.75 MB/s) adding a CIFS transfer from a Synology NAS that transfer caps at 34MB/s (also 10GE attached) Total and then gets Quote Error occurred on /LightRoom Backup/Photos ... ni 2018/Photo Prints 2016 (Failed to connect to the remote folder. Please make sure the remote server is accessible via CIFS protocol.) After this, the SMB share on unRAID is no longer accessible (does not show up when you browse or try to connect directly). It did reappear after 15 min (no reboot) FTP is able to access the share at a 29MB/s Single Source Second NAS to unRAID (SMB) 6 to 12MB/s Reference Same Client same app Cyber Duck FTP Client - from MacStudio to unRAID = 29MB/s - from MacStudio to Synology 1821+ = 108MB/s (min) bursts to 208MB/s Same Client same app SMB(Finder no modification) Client to Synology 1821+ - same directory - from MacStudio to unRAID = 17MB/s peaks, about a 50% idle between bursts (about 2 days) - from MacStudio to Synology 1821+ = 82MB/s (min) bursts to 800MB/s no idle times (about 1 hour) Issue 5 Hydrating data from a Synology NAS to the unRAID on a 10GE network using Syncthing is INSANELY slow. About 1 TiB per day.
February 17, 20242 yr Author Feb 17, 2024 Issue 1 - rebuild seems to have fixed this. Issue 2 - still working issue Issue 3 - get over it Issue 4 - unRAID is not RAID, thus no stripping of data, thus, the speed is the speed of a single HDD unless I do a pool. Still playing Issue 5 - see issue 4 issue 6 NEW - 10GE line card needs to be in a specific PCIE slot for unRAID to use it. ESXi did not care, but unRAID could not see it.
