Unassigned Devices - Managing Disk Drives and Remote Shares Outside of The Unraid Array

New Unraid user here. For some reason my 3TB ST33000650SS Seagate SAS drives (paired up with my LSI 9212-4i HBA in IT mode) aren't showing up in Unassigned Devices. My SATA drives show up just fine on the HBA in Unassigned Devices. The SAS drives preclear and add to my array flawlessly. Anyone run into this before?

Remove the UD plugin and see if the drives show up then as unassigned.  If they do, let me know the drive designations.

Are you asking what it looks like when I take the drives out of the array?

No. He's asking what it looks like if you uninstall the Unassigned Devices plugin.

 

Without the plugin the Unraid webUI will still list the Unassigned Devices, but you can't mount them or otherwise use them. That functionality comes from the plugin.

Do these help? I uninstalled UD and it didn't seem to change anything.

Good Morning,

 

So i try to mount my remote disk but when i do so i get this errors:

First off all i see this command and see two comma at this position: 

dir_mode=0777,,vers=1.0,username=<my-user>,password=******* '//<MY-IP>/Documents' '/mnt/disks/<MY-IP>_Documents'

So this is the first Invalid argument. But what about the "CIFS: Unkown mount option '03'" errors?

Unraid doesn't see any disks but the two in your array - sdb and sdc.  If there are supposed to be others, you need to check your bios and see that they are recognized by the motherboard.

Hi,

 

I'm trying to mount a WD Gold 6TB Drive, that's 4KN.

It mounts absolutely fine, formats fine with NTFS,XFS or exFAT, and if i share it, i can see the full 6TB is available and working.

 

However, if I pass it through to a windows VM, it shows as 3 partitions, two of which are unallocated. if i try and create a new partition within windows DSKMGR it just errors. Tried with diskpart too, errors on any action.

 

Is there a special way to do this for 4KN drives, or is this issue nothing to do with 4kn?

 

Im running 6.6.6 with UD: 2019.01.22a

I've attached screenshots here, showing details of config. I have another Seagate 2TB drive that mounts and passes through to windows fine.

 

Thanks,

Hi

 

Mounting a SMB share in the new RC it now translates the Hostname to a IP (NICE this is new!)

Writing username and password provides me with the dropdown box of all my shares (Synology box)

FYI: I have enabled SMB1-2-3 on the Synology box

Sofar so god...

image.thumb.png.77212b7c5dcc90f29fec9572a0e7783e.png

 

But I can't mount the drive?

(I don't have any problem mounting SMB to my Synology from my Shield android box, Kodi, Raspberry etc....´)

I read the FAQ, and also tried forcing it to SMB1

 

I have looked in the SMB file samba_mount.cfg

 

and it looks ok?

[//192.168.0.10/ActiveBackupforBusiness]
protocol = "SMB"
ip = "192.168.0.10"
path = "ActiveBackupforBusiness"
user = "PVR"
pass = "********"
share = "ActiveBackupforBusiness"

Update the UD plugin to version 2019.02.05a.  There was a bug causing this problem in the previous version.

Show another screenshot of UD so I can see the mount point.  Also post your diagnostics.

Surething first

Then it translate it to the IP (Nice)

And I add the mount

image.thumb.png.ac1214c88f2dc2edc455ffd814c52d86.png

 

And the mount config file:

[//192.168.0.10/ActiveBackupforBusiness]
protocol = "SMB"
ip = "192.168.0.10"
path = "ActiveBackupforBusiness"
user = "PVR"
pass = "********"
share = "ActiveBackupforBusiness"

 

And the Diagnostic file tower-diagnostics-20190207-1405.zip

 

Please let me know if I can provide any other information (and how to get it 🙂

And settings page:

Your server appears off-line to UD.  The server has to respond to a ping or UD thinks it is off-line.

Feb  7 09:57:30 Tower unassigned.devices: Error: Remote SMB/NFS server '192.168.0.10' is offline and share '//192.168.0.10/TV_Shows' cannot be mounted.

Be sure your remote server is configured to respond to a ping.

 

This is what the SMB indicator shows when the remote server is on-line.

So its Ping? The server is online if I write the //192.168.0.... it connects

So maybe some special FW rule to allow ping (Is this normal SMB configuration I dont have any setup like this on my other servers?)

Any way not sure what to do next, maybee its a network issue not sure Unify allows network ping by default

 

Again Thanks for your quick reply!

Ok solution was to first allow ping on Unifi USG

https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003146787-UniFi-USG-Firewall-How-to-Enable-ICMP-over-WAN

And then create a FW rule on the Synology for Ping

https://www.randomhacks.co.uk/how-to-allow-incoming-pings-through-synology-firewall/

 

That fixed the SMB indicator!

UD has to ping so it can show the status of the remote server.  The share might be mountable, but UD doesn't know that without the server responding to a ping.

Just following up here. Got a new 3TB HGST SAS drive and that one does show up correctly in Unassigned Devices. I now have 3 Seagate ST33000650SS SAS drives and none of them show up in UD when taken out of the array or are still unformated. I wonder if it's a bug or something? They are all on the same HBA. Let me know if I can furnish logs or something to help with this.

Remove the UD plugin and then navigate to the Unassigned Devices tab and show me a screen shot.  It looks like the disk drive designations are not being recognized by UD.

Is this what you are needing? I don't see anything in the area UD is when the plugin is removed.
