Problem: My Unraid server seems to have lost it's connection to the internet. I can't find \\tower on my network. I've tried rebooting but no luck. Everything was working fine last week. Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Forget it. I figured it out. For some reason the bios reset to defaults. It's all fixed now.

I think my house had a power outage yesterday and that caused the problem.

jermmd,

 

You don't have your unRaid on a fairly large capacity UPS?

 

If you do, was the power outage on for that long?

 

My home control system will notify me of a power outage so I can dismount and shutdown the array remotely before my 1kw UPS runs out of power.

TCIII,

 

What home control system do you use? and for what functions?

 

I am moving into a new home in about 2 months, and would love to be able to monitor the pool, sprinklers, A/C etc via my laptop.

 

Thanks

DeathtoToasters,

 

I presently have a JDS Stargate SG-IP, which has the Web Xpaneder daughter card, and is also connected to my GE Caddx NX8e alarm system which can page me in the event of an emergency.
