February 3, 201412 yr Author Weird. Please run ip link and ip addr and post the output. Also systemctl status dhcpcd please. What's the name of your bridge? Is it xenbr0?
February 3, 201412 yr mount problem is still happening any ideas badger? its been booted for 4+ hours. Do you have an ip address? ip add Can you ping "tower"? ping tower Can you ping the ip address of "tower"? ping X.X.X.X <--- Whatever that is If you have an IP and can ping the IP Address of "Tower"... showmount -e <--- Whatever that is Post back with what you find.
February 3, 201412 yr @Badger and Shortbus, Thanx for the reply's! I just changed my unraid network.cfg and arch.cfg to reflect "br0" instead of "xenbr0" and rebooted the unraid machine. (figured maybe it didnt link xenbr0...)

February 3, 201412 yr IronicBadger, thanks again for providing the ArchVM image! It may not be mandatory, I just went through the process of changing LOCALE and Time Zone on the image you created. Others may want to do likewise; if so here's the poop scoop: For LOCALE: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide#Locale the image is set for en_GB and one can use ^W while in nano to search for the string For TIME ZONE: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide#Time_zone since there's already a symbolic link in the image use "rm /etc/localtime" before adding the one for your time zone. I believe there's no reason to worry about HW clock

The part 4 video guide covered nothing about manually mounting it, in the end its mounted and im happy but just seems like something is off / shoutmount = broken "clnt_create: RPC: Unknown host" It doesn't yet auto mount samba. It does automount NFS. You could edit the VMs /etc/fstab file to make the samba stick between reboots. I installed the relevant samba utils, just didn't configure them to automount. That's why it works manually.
February 3, 201412 yr Tracking, how do i get it to automount NFS. I used samba as a work around because i could not get NFS to work. (which was the whole problem) Did i miss a step and noob something up?
February 3, 201412 yr Author Tracking, how do i get it to automount NFS. I used samba as a work around because i could not get NFS to work. cd /net/Tower/mnt/user/nameofshare Update Tower to match your servers name. Also to see what shares are available run showmount Tower -e Example... root@Tower:~# showmount unraid -e Export list for unraid: /mnt/user/Media *
February 3, 201412 yr thats whats not working [root@ArchApplianceVM .custom]# showmount Tower -e clnt_create: RPC: Unknown host [root@ArchApplianceVM .custom]# cd /net/Tower/mnt/user/Data -bash: cd: /net/Tower/mnt/user/Data: No such file or directory [root@ArchApplianceVM .custom]# cd /net/Tower/ -bash: cd: /net/Tower/: No such file or directory tower is my server name =)
February 3, 201412 yr Author thats whats not working showmount Tower -e clnt_create: RPC: Unknown host It's in the error msg. Your server can't be called Tower, or is called something else in your router.
February 3, 201412 yr Author ok ill look into my router, for now its working with samba, thank you again! You are using the VM image with a date on it right?
February 3, 201412 yr No just arch.img not sure what the zip file was called, i downloaded it last night... also 1. i have my plex lib on my unraid cache drive, do you have a good example on how to symlink the databases with the pacman installed version of plex? 2. Is there a way to make the arch img bigger (expand it)
February 3, 201412 yr Author No just arch.img also 1. i have my plex lib on my unraid cache drive, do you have a good example on how to symlink the databases? 2. Is there a way to make the arch img bigger (expand it) Symlink is ln -sf <source> <target> The Arch img is fixed. I can make a bigger one if you want, but I'm also experimenting with making the /home directory independent of the rootfs (the OS) so you could potentially mount the /home dir via NFS to an unraid share. Not sure how well that'll work due to the network delay at start (same for every VM regardless of VM).
February 3, 201412 yr I am going to need a bigger image or a symlink solution to my cache drive; my plex folder alone is over 40 gigs
February 3, 201412 yr Author I am going to need a bigger image or a symlink solution to my cache drive; my plex folder alone is over 40 gigs Try out the symlink solution I just showed you. Plex and other apps install to /opt on Arch.
