cockroach Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) The corntab link is still messed up. It needs to point to http://corntab.com not http://www.corntab.com Though, I would suggest changing it https://crontab.guru instead. Edited January 11, 2018 by cockroach Quote Link to comment
thomas Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) When I enable this plugin the time between the unraid displays the console login and the autostart of VM is increased to 60+ seconds. Without this plugin it's around 5 seconds. Is there anything that I should/can do to make this plugin "faster" to load? Thanks LE: I'm on 6.4.0, if it matters...

Do you have a script executing on startup? Quote Link to comment
thomas Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I checked and I had one script being executed at startup of the array, I disabled it and now it's working properly. The script was finding and deleting some temp files on the array, but my VMs are located on the cache drive (SSD) so I thought they won't be impacted by this... If you have any scripts running at startup, the VMs will wait until the scripts are finished in order to load, or they are competing for resources (cpu,ram) and eventually will load?

Squid Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 Scripts are executed as part of the array initialization process, and until the script is finished, the whole boot process is paused. Unless you fork a new process into the background. Quote Link to comment

The only one that I do not understand is the one called "At First Array Start Only". Can you clarify that one for me? To me it would seem to run the script at the first array start after a server reboot/startup. Also found the quoted statement above during my search and it may help answer my question.

Doing that via the plugin is not something I'm interested in doing / supporting Quote Link to comment

Just wanted to check on that, since ljm42 made a statement in the 6.4.0 Release Note thread about moving any customizations from the go file to User Script Plugin, so I thought I would check.

What is the SAT? Cron entries tend to be purely numeric, and IIRC Slackware doesn't support day names. Rather you'd be using 6 Quote Link to comment

wgstarks Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I have a script set to run at parity start/stop. It fails since updating to 6.4 with this error- Warning: parse_ini_file(var/local/emhttp/var.ini): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /boot/scripts/docker_start_stop_parity/parity_test.php on line 24 Warning: parse_ini_file(var/local/emhttp/var.ini): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /boot/scripts/docker_start_stop_parity/parity_test.php on line 24 Warning: parse_ini_file(var/local/emhttp/var.ini): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /boot/scripts/docker_start_stop_parity/parity_test.php on line 24 Looks like var/local/emhttp/var.ini no longer exists if I'm reading this right.

almarma Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hi wonderful people! (I'm very happy as I thought my server was gone and this awesome forum helped me and it's up and working like a charm ) May I ask for help with the "delete.ds_store" script? I have a share dedicated to Time Machine backups and I would love to have the opportunity to run this script on all my shares BUT the Time Machine one as I don't want to touch that one. I'm not an expert so I don't know exactly how I could edit the script to avoid it. Can maybe somebody here help me and others with the same setup? Quote Link to comment

You can modify the path in the script to point to a specific share. Example: replace /mnt/user with this /mnt/user/media This would scan your “media” share. This way you can just scan the shares that you want to. Quote Link to comment

Just to be sure I don't mess up things. Lets say I want to apply it in two shares, one called MEDIA and another called WORK. This is the default content: #!/bin/bash echo "Searching for (and deleting) .DS_Store Files" echo "This may take a awhile" find /mnt/user -maxdepth 9999 -noleaf -type f -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm "{}" \; Can I have two lines like so? #!/bin/bash echo "Searching for (and deleting) .DS_Store Files" echo "This may take a awhile" find /mnt/user/MEDIA -maxdepth 9999 -noleaf -type f -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm "{}" \; find /mnt/user/WORK -maxdepth 9999 -noleaf -type f -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm "{}" \; Do the final ; symbol should be used for each line or only for the end of the script?

IamSpartacus Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Can someone help me get an rsync user script working? I followed the below process for setting up ssh keys between two unRAID servers so that I can rsync between them without having to enter a password (ie. in a script). But even after doing this, it still prompts for a password when running rsync. What am I missing? 1. Test rsync over ssh (with password): Do a rsync to make sure it asks for the password for your account on the remote server, and successfully copies the files to the remote server. The following example will synchronize the local folder /home/test to the remote folder /backup/test (on 192.168.200.10 server). This should ask you for the password of your account on the remote server. rsync -avz -e ssh /home/test/ [email protected]:/backup/test/ 2. ssh-keygen generates keys. Now setup ssh so that it doesn’t ask for password when you perform ssh. Use ssh-keygen on local server to generate public and private keys. $ ssh-keygen Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Note: When it asks you to enter the passphrase just press enter key, and do not give any password here. 3. ssh-copy-id copies public key to remote host Use ssh-copy-id, to copy the public key to the remote host. ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 192.168.200.10 Note: The above will ask the password for your account on the remote host, and copy the public key automatically to the appropriate location. If ssh-copy-id doesn’t work for you, use the method we discussed earlier to setup ssh password less login. 4. Perform rsync over ssh without password Now, you should be able to ssh to remote host without entering the password. ssh 192.168.200.10 Perform the rsync again, it should not ask you to enter any password this time. rsync -avz -e ssh /home/test/ [email protected]:/backup/test/ Quote Link to comment
hmgnsd Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hello all! Would anyone be able to cast their eyes over a couple of scripts I have ‘adapted’ for my download setup? The first one I don’t think there is a problem with, it should move Handbrake converted files from one directory to another where a media manager can pick them up: Quote #!/bin/bash if [ -f /var/run/mymover.pid ]; then if ps h `cat /var/run/mymover.pid` | grep mymover.sh ; then echo "mymover already running, sorry." exit 0 fi fi echo $$ >/var/run/mymover.pid echo "Moving files from $1 to $2" (cd "/mnt/user/downloads/Complete/"; find -depth -print \( ! -exec fuser -s '{}' \; -exec rsync -i -qdIWRpEAXogt --numeric-ids --inplace --remove-source-files {} "/mnt/user/downloads/Import/" \; \)) # Prune empty directories from source dir find "/mnt/user/downloads/Complete/" -type d -empty -prune -exec rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty {} \; # Prune empty directories from destination dir find "/mnt/user/downloads/Import/" -type d -empty -prune -exec rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty {} \; sync rm /var/run/mymover.pid echo "Moving all done." The next one, is supposed to delete the original files after they have been copied. The last time I tried it, it looked like it was removing files from all directories which was not the desired effect. Quote #!/bin/bash find /mnt/user/downloads/Import -atime +1 -type f -exec ls -l {} \; Quote Link to comment
