Hello

 

Having some trouble after V6.2 upgrade

 

Only 1 NIC and it is onboard

Server is connected to a switch - then Router

Static Ip

 

If I start the server connected to the switch the NIC does not even become active.  The switch port does not light up and the NIC lights are not flashing.

 

If I connect the server directly to the modem/router everything lights up and it seems happy

 

Have deleted network.cfg and when booting into GUI it blashed bh0 host found - then lost - then adapter dropped

 

Need some guidance on where to look really at the end of the street

 

Will say I was not the most stringent when upgrading and did not disable dockers.  I did how ever already nuke docker.img and reload them after this problem showed its self.

 

Different port on the switch?  Reboot the switch?

Not going to get me this time hehe

 

Switched cables and ports

Rebooted all devices so many times

Lap top confirmed cables and switch communicates

 

When I deleted cfg server wouldn't even fech an up

 

 

I assume that you have monitor and keyboard access.  Login and type  diagnostics  at the command line prompt.  That will write your diagnostics file to your Flash Drive.  Pull that drive and put it into your PC and upload the diagnostic file in your next post.

 

Ok  that will need to wait until back at location later today

Okay this log is with the server plugged into the switch

 

Let me know if you need anything else

 

thx for the help

Here is the log with server attached to the router dircectly

You do not have a network-rules.cfg file.  Go to the Settings->Network Settings and verify the eth0 mac address is correct.  It will be the right most tab.  Be sure to apply the settings.

 

Not sure if this is the issue, but looks suspicious.

In BIOS it tells me that my MAC suppose to be 00:30:18:AA:AD:73

 

In Network Settings in UNRAID it says it is for ETH0 00:30:18:AA:AD:73

Not sure if this will help but with the Server conected to the router and working properly on the network the screen is reporting Device "eth1" does not exist.  Havent had a screen on this thing for sometime so not sure when that started

Easy test would be to build a HiRens bootable USB, load drives and access the network.  Would prove if indeed ETH1 is dead...?

 

And shouldn't your first ETH be ETH0?  Just sayin...

The switch being used is D-Link DS-1008D

 

Update:  I had a Cisco 100Mbs small business switch and swapped out the original D-Link and the Server communicates fine thru it

 

This is making me scratch my head

 

Squid think you got me again

 

Update:

Installed new Gbps NIC and disabled onboard NIC

 

Plugged everything back into orginal DLink GB switch and router and poof all is well

 

Still not sure why onboard NIC would work with 100Mbps switch and not the orignal Gbps switch just like that.

 

Not sure if it is actually a V6.2 upgrade bug or not
