s_mason16 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I installed a new sas controller card, before hand all drives were plugged into the mainboard. I cross-flashed a dell perc h310 to to lsi 9211 it mode. plugged all my drives into it and booted up. Well it didn't like my ssd cache drive and rejected it and put it in unassigned devices. so i plugged that back into the mainboard and it was recognized again. But now some of my dockers are not working properly, specifically plexpy and the tautilla app, could be more those are just the two ive noticed so far. I'm afraid it created a new appdata directory and files when it auto started the array after the first reboot. How or what do i do to fix the dockers? Thanks in advanced. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Make sure your docker settings are pointing to /mnt/cache instead of /mnt/user, after changing and confirming all is working delete any docker related files on the array. Quote Link to comment
s_mason16 Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 hmm, i tried that and it didn't change anything. I guess i'll just save whats in the folder for plexpy and try reinstalling it and see if i can dump the past logs into it. Thanks for the suggestion. I hope I don't have to do that for all of the dockers. lol. Quote Link to comment
CHBMB Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Also, iirc trim may not be supported on the SAS card and there may be some advantages to leaving your SSD on the motherboard controller. Although I'm sure @johnnie.black can clarify this.Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
SSD Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Generally SSDs should be plugged into fast / high bandwidth controllers. Motherboard ports are usually best. SSDs consume a lot of bandwidth, so even though a controller has 8 ports, you might only have enough bandwidth for 7 drives. And if one of these is an SSD, you might only have bandwidth for 4 spinners. Motherboard ports can typically handle full bandwidth, even with SSDs, leaving your add on controllers handling spinners exclusively. Another reason, most older add on controllers do not support performing the trim operation on SSDs, an important maintenance activity to provide long life to SSDs. I should know! If I don't get trimmed once in a while I slow down, lose stuff, and feel like crap! 1 Quote Link to comment
