March 18, 201610 yr For both .18 and .19 the array won't auto start. I have to start manually. Not sure if it's my setup or some config I need to change. Also every time I reboot the weburl takes me to the licensing page - is this expected? I hit DONE and nothing ever happens. Same Here. Dual Parity System. Diagnostics attached. Thanks for the log. There is a bug that is causing this because you have a static IP address. Will fix in next release. Edit: a workaround would be to put this line in your 'go' file before 'emhttp' is invoked: sleep 5 (But don't forget to remove it once this bug gets fixed) Finally got this to work. sleep 5, 10, and 15 did not work. Changed to sleep 60 (also 30) and it finally worked. Gonna test other values now.
March 18, 201610 yr 5 and 10 failed - jumped to 30 and that worked. I now don't see the registration screen and array is started. I will stick with 30 for now. Thanks all!
March 18, 201610 yr Author In reference to the bug report above, here's the capture from ipmi console. Edit: This is with a freshly formatted usb which was formatted and labelled as per spec using windows epxlorer and not rufus as I was previously using. Reverting back to 6.1.9 fixes the issue so must be kernel or driver related. Motherboard is a SuperMicro X10SL7-F (http://www.supermicro.co.uk/products/motherboard/Xeon/C220/X10SL7-F.cfm) and the usb stick is connected to a USB2 port which is as far as I'm aware connected to an Intel® C222 Express PCH controller. The problem is happening earlier than your screenshot shows, and your system log attached in previous post is too garbled to read btw: how'd you get that log if you can't mount the usb flash? Did you try some of the other usb ports?

Since you are not using NFS go to Settings/NFS and turn it off to stop those messages.

Attached is the syslog extracted out the archive. Tried all the usb ports, 1 on motherboard for hypervisors, 4 on back, 2 on front and 2 usb3s Right didn't realize it was .tar.bz2. Do you see messages like this on the console during boot? waiting for /dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID (will check for 30 sec)... The syslog doesn't really shed any light. At console, what do you get for output of these commands? lsblk v /dev/disk/by-label Finally, does this work? mount /dev/sda1 /boot ls /boot <should see files on your usb flash>
March 19, 201610 yr getting this one also - same boot session as my one above....

March 19, 201610 yr Update from beta18 to 19, (1) boot with GUI, (2) Auto start - add sleep 5, (3) HDD not spindown .... all fix, so good. Just "Dynamix File Integrity" plugin not work (build. export ..... Error, Operation aborted) , but this may relate the update of plugin itself.
March 19, 201610 yr Many thank you's for this release! Not had any issues... [offtopic] I have a pro license since 2013. I not always used unRAID but always followed the forums. unRAID has awesome community. Instead of using unRAID I used a Synology NAS. At the moment I'm considering selling the Synology because I use unRAID for a week now (6.2 beta18). unRAID gets better with every release. I'm planning a new unRAID build because my current unRAID server can only hold 5 drives. Thumbs up Limetech! [/offtopic]

My plan is to keep it and once the new DSM comes out I will backup all the data on it (some will be moved permanent to unraid) then i will set it up with SHR2 and use it for backups for the unraid [/offtopic]

March 19, 201610 yr For both .18 and .19 the array won't auto start. I have to start manually. Not sure if it's my setup or some config I need to change. Also every time I reboot the weburl takes me to the licensing page - is this expected? I hit DONE and nothing ever happens. Same in beta 18 here, not tried beta 19 yet. This was not an issue in 6.1.9.

This was not an issue in 6.1.9. Limetech have answered this earlier,, to add sleep 30 to go file (see above posts) Anyone what does this command do when added to the go file?? I guess pausing the system for a set amount of time before the gui starts allowing the array to have time to autostart? @Limetech Team Thanks for all the hard work, and a super speedy 19 beta release.
March 19, 201610 yr Is it possible that the wrong activity icon is shown when a drive is active? Are there more people with this problem. When I play music the wrong activity icon is showing activity, My music is on disk 4 but in tab main disks 2 and 3 are active. I rechecked the location of the music and it's really on disk 4 and disk 4 is inactive. Edit: It's working correct now. Not sure what was wrong probably I needed coffee...
March 19, 201610 yr will we be able to create libvirt.img on an unassign drive or does it have to be in cache?? b18 and b19 wont allow it unless its on cache

It was just a question for other users. Not specific for Limetech because I was not completely sure.

I rechecked the location of the music and it's really on disk 4 and disk 4 is inactive. Go to settings > disk settings and check poll_attributes value, this value sets how often SMART values are checked and temp and spin status updated, default is 1800 (30 minutes), which IMHO is too long, so if disk 4 was spun down and you start accessing it can be up to 30 minutes before the main page correctly updates its status, try setting this value to something like 300 (you can set lower but to low will impact parity check performance).
March 19, 201610 yr I've had this issue on b18 + b19, I've also seen it mentioned a couple of times in each of the beta threads The whole "waiting for /dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID (will check for 30 sec)..." I'm running 6.1.9, tried updating via the plugin update and saw this! (attached screenshot) That's what happened as soon as I tried to update the plugin
