sane Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Well, I apologise in advance, but let's face it, it's inevitable.... When is beta 16 /RC1 going to be released? Surely the question is, are we going to see 6.0 released before the 1 year anniversary of the date by which it was said it was going to be released? It's so late they are beginning to call it Duke Nukem. So much for regular updates...... Link to comment

Surely the question is, are we going to see 6.0 released before the 1 year anniversary of the date by which it was said it was going to be released? It's only been 226 days over budget since the officially declared release deadline on 6.0 FINAL. They have another 138 days left until September 30, 2015. Link to comment

jowe Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I have a problem on 6beta15. When I install a VM, using br0 as network, I have connection only for a minute or so after installing the network drivers. Then the VM says "no internet connection" and I cant connect anything on the LAN. If I disable br0 and use virbr0 as bridge it works. I always get an IP address from my router. But cant send any traffic. I have a 2 nic bond, but I have also tried to break the bond, using only one nic, but no change. Any ideas? /jowe Edit: and suddenly it just works, that's strange... edit2: Same thing after restart, no connection. And 20min later its just working. Link to comment

I assume that this is br0? You should not name that bridge as virbr0 as that would conflict with the built in NAT virbr0. The bridge under Settings->Network is the one that should get an address from your router. Edit: and suddenly it just works, that's strange... edit2: Same thing after restart, no connection. And 20min later its just working. Seen other reports like this. Not sure what they mean and what is causing that behaviour. Link to comment

I Always get IP from router (when using br0) even when i cant connect to anything. At that point what does the 'ifconfig' command show? I was wondering if you have sensible DNS and gateway settings at this point? Also can you ping anything using either the ip address or the name? I would suggest that the router is the first one to try as if you cannot get there you are not going to get any further. Link to comment

itimpi Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I assume that ifconfig is from within unRAID? If so it is a bit strange that neither eth0 or eth1 have IP addresses. What IP address do you expect your unRAID box to have? It might also be worth seeing what an ifconfig (or ipconfig if a Windows VM) shows from inside the VM itself. Link to comment

What IP address do you expect your unRAID box to have? It might also be worth seeing what an ifconfig (or ipconfig if a Windows VM) shows from inside the VM itself. Yes, its from unraid. When you activate bond, the ip is set on bond0. And when you activate bridge, the ip I s set on br0, so 192.168.1.101 is the ip of the tower. If I ping the VM from another Windows box it replies, and after that I can ping that box from the VM, but I still cant ping GW. The ipconfig of the VM shows that I have and IP from the router (I also tried with a Windows DHCP server, same result). /release and /renew is no problem, but doesnt solve anything. Link to comment

I changed the bonding mode from balanced rr, to 802.3ad. And reconfigured the ether channel on the switch, I still have some drops on br0, but much less. And its working on the VMs! Thanks!

JimPhreak Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Is there any location where we can download previous versions of unRAID like this one? I'm running RC5 but getting the usb 2-1.2: reset high speed USB device number "x" messages on both my ESXi host and on my unRAID server itself. I want to test out an older version. Can these only be gotten by emailing support? Link to comment

beire Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Seeing your posts i checked my syslog and found 1 entry of the usb reset error. It's only one entry so not so bad.

beire Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Yeah that's definately strange. The only usb device i've got assigned on my own server is the unraid stick. On my other server i've got 2 devices, one for unraid (which gives no errors), and one special usb device, but no way of getting to syslogs there. You said there were errors in ESXi somewhere?

I honestly don't know if there is any consequence at all. However I'm noticing serious slowness issues with regard to my unRAID VM so I'm searching for causes. The webgui will be instantaneous for a few clicks and then it starts taking 20-30 seconds to load pages. Even browsing directories on the USB via telnet is really slow just changing directories or doing things like manually starting unMenu. It's very random but constant enough that it's driving me crazy. Link to comment
