Lego Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 This seems like a obvious one, but i couldn't find the answer anywhere. When I reboot the server 5 Beta 14 (current), the server requires me to web in and bring array on line to start sharing files. Is there a setting to get the array started automatically. I have the same issue with UnMenu is it really necessary each boot to log into UnRaid shell and type the command uu to get UnMenu started? Thanks!
stomp Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 To start unMENU at launch, you need to edit your go file. Adding the two following lines should do the trick : cd /boot/unmenu /uu To automatically mount your array, there's an option to tick in unRAID's menu. I thinks it's in Disk Settings...

That should be cd /boot/unmenu ./uu It needs to be "./uu", not "/uu"
Lego Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 Thanks, i found this command too to bring uuMenu up at bootime: echo "/boot/unmenu/uu" >> /boot/config/go But to mount the array itself, i see under Disk Settings Enable Auto Start - A pulldown for Yes/No It's set to Yes, and yet I still need to manually web in and start it. however, each time I've had this experience it has been an unclean shutdown and parity needed to be checked. Maybe that was a factor.
cleight Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I'm on V5 Beta 12a and I have the same problem, auto startup is enable but the array never starts I have to login to the GUI and start it manually.
stomp Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Note: there is a new configuration setting on the Disk Settings page called "Enable auto start". If you set this to "Yes", then upon next server boot, if the array is valid, then it will be automatically Started (this is the old behavior). Your array is probably not valid then.

Maybe that was a factor. How do you shutdown exactly?

Maybe that was a factor. That command puts the entire in the go file... it itself does not start unMenu. And you do not want to do that every boot, it is a one time thing run from the command line.
Frank1940 Posted December 21, 2011 Posted December 21, 2011 I am running ver5b14 and I have the same problem with the array not auto starting. The "Enable Auto Start" is set to 'Yes' in the Disk Setting menu. Could it be because I am running a beta version and the developer didn't want the array to auto start if the user was just 'looking' at a beta version of the software on a production machine which was setup on a stable software version?
Lego Posted December 22, 2011 Author Posted December 22, 2011 Thank you ProStuff. I entered that one time and now I'm fine. I'm not sure the best way to shut down cleanly, I've used reboot with Telnet or Console but don't know how to shutdown or reboot from the web interface I'm curious what is the best practice for shutdown / reboot. I don't think it is the unclean shutdown that is causing my array not to automatically come up - i think it is possibly beta 14 OTOH, i just rebooted using reboot from telnet and the array came up fine.

Best way to reboot is to stop the array from the web interface and then use the shutdown or reboot button there.
Wody Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 About the 'Enable Auto Start' option: By default, it says 'Yes' even if it is not actually set to Yes or No, but undefined. This means you have to set it to 'No' and then change it again to 'Yes' to enable it. My guess is you never did this, so it is actually undefined, and not really set to yes. If you have set it to 'No and then back to 'Yes', then I don't know what is going on, sorry.
