Hello unRAID community,

 

1st time unRAID user on board.

 

For years I've been working on Synology systems but now I need a more flexible solution.

 

Why did I choose unRAID?

Originally I wanted to run my storage systems with FreeNAS, but due to the inflexible expandability of storage, the only logical decision was to take the step to unRAID.

 

So, here I am \o/

 

Within the next days I have all components together to assemble my two unRAID servers.

 

One serves acts as backup system, the other one becomes my main storage system and iSCSI target for my VMs/Container which I have on a separate system (Proxmox).

 

Since I plan to make my on-site backup at night, the backup unRAID server does not need to run permanently.

Is it possible to boot the backup unRAID server via WOL (triggered by a cron job, or similar from the main storage system)? If yes, how do I configure this on the main storage system?

 

Thank you in advance.

 

 

Greetings from Germany,

Frank
