If I'm reading correctly and you just need firmware updated, it may be possible to boot from something other than unraid to do that...

Not the point.  With the new fw and old drivers, unraid will not display anything on the connected monitor.  I had to roll fw back because drivers are old, again this is unraid specfic.

No sorry, will get into next release (if they build correctly).

 

Would be great if S/M would just merge them in-tree.

Many thanks!  Next release would be great.

 

I agree and i gave SM some static about that.  They also told me that they do not even test with unraid, even though Limetech prefers supermicro boards, so I gave them static for that too.

 

Thanks again!

Updated 6.8.2 to 6.8.3.  No problems.

 

Thank you to the unRAID team for continued development and support.

 

Update:  since the update, when making a ~80GB file transfer between a unassigned USB drive (mac os extended journaled) and another XFS unassigned drive using Krusader, Krusader stalled and Unassigned Devices became unresponsive.  I attempted to cleanly stop the array from the command line but was ultimately unsuccessful, because the problem was related to a kernel error.  Prior to the update, I've had success with Krusader.

 

To resolve, ultimately I had to do a hardware force shutdown.

Kernel error. Forced shutdown to correct.

Regarding 6.8.3

 

What are these?

If I have an existing VM how do I enable this? just by seletcion CPU mode: host passthrough? (I always have had it like this)

• webgui: VMs: enable cpu cache passthrough; AMD + multithreaded

 

This just mean that a new category has been added or are there new security options for dockers? where are they?

• webgiu: dockerMan: Security enhancement

If you create a new VM on a AMD system with "host passthrough" selected, the cache mode will be automatically be added

 

old xml:

  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
    <topology sockets='1' cores='4' threads='1'/>
  </cpu>

new xml:

  <cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
    <topology sockets='1' cores='4' threads='1'/>
    <cache mode='passthrough'/>
    <feature policy='require' name='topoext'/>
  </cpu>

For existing VMs you have to adjust it yourself.

Both (Security as a category being added was listed as a separate entity).

 

So far as the security enhancement was concerned, it was previously possible for a malicious template author (ie: an asshole) to craft a template for a docker container that would either

1. Arbitrarily execute code directly on the server simply by loading the template or
2. Completely hide a path mapping from the user even if template authoring mode was enabled in Settings - Docker

 

This code change simply brought dockerMan up to speed with what Community Applications already does for those 1 or 2 users that still add in repositories via the Template Repositories tab (ugh) instead of utilizing the Apps Tab.  CA goes medieval in it's enforcement of any violation of security  

Quote

Any violation of the security policies enforced by CA and the associated application feed results in automatic blacklisting of an author's entire template repository.  No warnings and no exceptions.

I just read through all the post again, I'm sorry I don't see it. I see one link to an external page but it's way over my head. I see multiple people asking what this is and I'm not seeing any responses to it. maybe I'm blind

This is a bit over my head too.  I love the idea of the feature, but won't be able to utilize it until someone can please provide a more detailed explanation.  Right now I am wasting 3x VPN connections for three different dockers.  It would be nice to run all three dockers through the same VPN connection and have a kill switch working.  I also need port forwarding with PIA which I don't know if it is possible with the new feature?

 

Also, updated from 6.8.2 without issue.

 

Thanks all,

craigr

may a simple sample

 

i run my ovpn_privoxy docker and i want another docker (sample xteve) run through the vpn connection cause the app doesnt provide a proxy feature

 

so i setup the xteve docker as followed

will result in

 

now xteve docker is using the network from my ovpn_privoxy docker ...

 

if the vpn docker is in bridge mode, u have to map the port(s) from the client docker(s) of course ... in this sample 34400 34400 on the ovpn_privoxy docker

 

works and tested here as note, very nice and thanks again to limetech for adding this

[squirrellydw]

[tomjrob]

Upgraded from 6.8.1. to 6.8.3 today. No issues. All Dockers & VM's working. Kudos to the team.

[Iker]

Upgraded from 6.8.2 without any problems, all Dockers and VMs working fine, also tested the Nvidia plugin and works flawless.

[jpowell8672]

6.8.2 to 6.8.3 no issues except for same failure to connect to hypervisor error since 6.8 initial release.

[danioj]

Can someone please link me to a post that describes the docker container VPN support feature and explains how one would use it?

[alturismo]

@danioj few posts up i made a sample if that may helps

[MowMdown]

Updated to 6.8.3 - Small WebGUI issue when clicking on dockers from dashboard, the "Update" button appears on all dockers even though no updates are available. 

 

Edit, this does not happen while in the "docker" tab

How do I map the ports between containers?  For example, NZBGet.  I've got that container set as you have above, but I am unsure of how to map properly.  How do I configure port 6789 in this case?  Thanks for the info so far.
