wisem2540 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Several things I am not quite understanding as many of the guides seem to be out of date. 1. Crashplan. I am trying to use Docker and Crashplan and I stumbled onto this https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/gfjardim/crashplan/ 1a. Do I have to use the Run command somewhere that the page suggests? https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/gfjardim/crashplan/ "To run: docker run -d -h ${HOSTNAME} –name=crashplan -v /path/to/your/config:/config -v /mnt/user:/data -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -p 4242:4242 -p 4243:4243 gfjardim/crashplan" Or is it as simple as just configuring via the docker page? 1b. Is /mnt/user simply a pointer for all user shares? 1c. If I put my config files for apps in /mnt/user/appdata then will it not keep my drives from going to sleep? 1d. If I point Crashplan to backup /mnt/user that should encompass all of my data, yes? 2. KVM 2a. Does unraid use KVM and XEN interchangeably? Do I have to boot to Unraid XEN to make vms work? I continue to receive errors trying to create a VM Thanks Link to comment

YES 1b. Is /mnt/user simply a pointer for all user shares? I think it would be more technically correct to say it is the mount point for all user shares. 1c. If I put my config files for apps in /mnt/user/appdata then will it not keep my drives from going to sleep? If you have a cache drive, then put them in /mnt/cache/appdata. Note that /mnt/cache/appdata is still a user share named appdata and will also appear at /mnt/user/appdata, but it will be initially created on cache. You MUST set the appdata share to Use cache disk: ONLY or mover will move it to the array 1d. If I point Crashplan to backup /mnt/user that should encompass all of my data, yes? YES 2. KVM 2a. Does unraid use KVM and XEN interchangeably? Do I have to boot to Unraid XEN to make vms work? I continue to receive errors trying to create a VM Thanks You can only use Xen and not KVM if you boot with Xen. If you boot without Xen, then you can only use KVM and not Xen. KVM management is built into the webGUI and Xen is going to be phased out so you should use KVM. Link to comment
wisem2540 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 @TRURL - thank you for your thoughtful reply. Looks like the problems I was having with Qemu were because I didnt have Hardware Virtualization enabled in my BIOS, or as my ASUS board calls it....Secure VM Mode... Link to comment
