The edit-tab is missing According to the Plugins-tab the plug-in is up-to-date (2020.03.18). My unRaid is @ version 6.8.3 Any idea how to fix this - got no idea if the plug-in produces any logfiles. This plug-in is still a very desirable and must-have plug-in. Thanks again! Did you go under "Settings" and go on "Disk Location" from there? These tabs exists under "Tools" only 1 Quote Link to post

When I do a self-test from the cli, I see "Error Counter logging not supported. Device does not support Self Test logging." And then I also remembered that these are running on an H800 in individual RAID-0 until my new HBA arrives. So another reason SMART isn't working. Feature request: Ability to turn off SMART/failed drive status. Or ability to just hide the failed drive status on the dashboard. Thanks! I might add that later, right now Im busy doing nothing and play left 4 dead 2 Quote Link to post

Is there a way to manually add a disk to the database? I really like the other plugin's "Historical Drives" section. It kinda give me a history of what was installed and when it was removed. Yes, it can be done manually, save your data and I provide you with some SQL insertions later when I bother It is manual, and eventually have to be done everytime if you delete the database. So keep a backup after you added them all. I provide the details later, but as I said earlier in the last post.. Im busy doing nothing and playing left 4 dead 2 at the moment 😛 I just need a coding break, but will support this further later Quote Link to post

sjoerd 8 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Awesome.. I noticed there are some new features since my last active use. Great When I want to set s.m.a.r.t updates to daily (or any of the options listed) it falls back to disabled on save. Any thoughts on how to fix that? Quote Link to post

Most likely it bugged out and created two or more cronjob files for the same task, I did experience this myself, but not sure why yet. What you can try: Press "SAVE" while it is chosen as "Disabled" before you choose anything else. It might fix it. Reinstall the plugin, do wait for it to complete - it might take a while depending on how many drives you have and if "Disk Location plugin on update scan" is "on". This can be turned off for faster installation and no scanning. Manual way: Check if the files exists in /etc/cron.* type in terminal: ls -la /etc/cron.*/disklocation.sh and delete them manually.

If you use unassigned devices, you must use the internal plugin dates - I think that was some "bugs" with Unraid, or the incompatibility with Unassigned devices. I know I had similar problem earlier, and that's the reason I included that in the plugin as well. If you use Unraid array dates, be sure to NOT use the plugin for the dates, but set under each device where you read the SMART data. Things entered here will override what's stored in the database for the plugin. Also make sure that all the drives are recognized as different drives, model name and serial number should be present and the last one unique. Quote Link to post

Another question i put the date format on unraid to dd-mm-yyyy is it also possible to change this in the plugin it still shows there as mm-dd-yyy Quote Link to post

Phoenix Down 18 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Great plugin, thanks! Question: for disks that are spun-down, is there a setting to make the status lights just permanently grey like on the Main screen? The flashing green/grey light makes it much less glanceable. I have to wait a few seconds to see if they are green full time or if I just glanced at it while it was green during a blink. Quote Link to post

I have to wait a few seconds to see if they are green full time or if I just glanced at it while it was green during a blink. Heh, does it really matter though? It mainly uses the scheme from Unraid itself, just that I don't see Unraid actually uses "green-blink" as a blinking green LED 😛 Not having any plan at the moment to change that though.. unless the majority start requesting it. I try to avoid any more configurations and options than it currently has to keep it somewhat simpler. Best thing you can do so far is to add your own CSS in your browser (if it supports it, maybe via addon): .green-blink { color: lightgray; animation: none; animation-timing-function: unset; font-size: 8pt; cursor: help; } Edited May 26, 2020 by olehj CSS added Quote Link to post

Even "Unassigned devices" plugin doesn't use the same scheme of things (they still use PNG images). Rather blame Unraid for insanely poor guidelines and documentation for plugins. Quote Link to post

coldwar7 0 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 So I just installed this from the Community Applications Plugin and it seems to all be working but I can't find the Disk Location under "Tools". If I go through the "Plugins" page I get the the view and it is even at the URL "http://<servername>/Tools/disklocation". Any ideas? I have workarounds, but don't know why I have this issue.

The OP states: Quote Disk Location will be installed under "Tools" (for informational pages) and "Settings" (for configurations) But based on your answer, I'm guessing your layout matches what I described.
