falconexe Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) DEVELOPER UPDATE: Hey guys. Sorry it has been so long since my last post/news. Unfortunately, I am going through a divorce. It was a complete shock, and I'll just leave it at that. As you can imagine, it has taken up a lot of my time and energies. I was on track to release UUD 1.6 right before that bombshell went off. So, I am slowly getting back into development mode to polish a few things up and get this out the door. Another user @LTM and I have also been hard at work on another project that will directly support the UUD now and into the future. I am very excited to make that introduction and announcement soon. I wanted to say thanks to @GilbN and all of the other users in the community who have helped out people with questions and issues while I was away. It's great to see! Stay tuned...

OK, it seems I shouldn't have taken that exactly literally Quote influxdb:1.8.4-alpine@UnraidOfficial pic.twitter.com/JfDgwDGwJ6 gives me an error that the repository name must be lower case and leaves me with an orphaned image. However Quote influxdb:1.8.4-alpine does work. Unfortunately, before I saw SpencerJ's post, I'd fiddled with the drive dropdowns and have lost some variable settings so I'll have to reset them. Better than having to completely start from scratch. Hrmm... Maybe I spoke too soon: I get the same missing drives... Then I stopped all three dockers and restarted Influxdb > Telegraf > Grafana and all is good now. Whew! Edited February 25, 2021 by FreeMan 1 Quote Link to comment
Kykoibrahim Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Thank you everyone for all your contribution. Cant wait for 1.6. I just had a question. Im running on a dell r710 with ipmi enabled. Accessing my idrac i can see all my system stats, on the dashboard the stats show up but the system temp and system power are only displaying a single variable. Not sure if anyones seen this before or has any experience on adjusting it. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment

MiamiFinsFan13 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 This might have been asked and answered but I'll give it a shot anyway. I use Prometheus instead of Telegraf/Influx for my monitoring (other machines right now) so i was wondering if anyone had forked this project to work with Prom? It is a wicked cool dashboard I just dont want to run 2 monitoring solutions or switch my other stuff (if it isnt forked i might have to do one or the other tho cause this board is amazing).

Laucien Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Maybe this was discussed in previous pages but tried to search for it and couldn't find anything (nor could I find an actual 'search' button in the thread but that's another issue xD). Is there any workaround to Telegraf and the SMART check input plugin preventing disks from being spun down? I kinda thought it was an 6.9RC2 bug but after some comments on Reddit realized that that bit as causing it. Disks remain off is manually spun down but will not go into that state on their own even if completely inactive because Telegraf checking the SMART values seems to be preventing it.

Laucien Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I just checked. My disks spin down and I use the smart plugin. Huh weird.On my case I have 2 SATA HDDs in this server and I'm using the smart plugin to get all the info for the dashboard. My telegraf config is the one from the first post only disabling IPMI as I don't have that. Unraid version is 6.9 RC2.I was having an issue in that the drives will never spin down even if nothing was using them but if I manually spun them down the would remain like that until something actually tried to access the data. From a couple posts on reddit I disabled the auto fan plugin and my Telegraf docker and the problem went away. Then trying to narrow it down I enabled Telegraf again disabling the SMART plugin and disks went back to spinning down as expected.Any idea how I could troubleshoot this? Or what logs/info I could share. Quote Link to comment
falconexe Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 Does your appdata folder sit on these disks? AKA are you NOT using a cache disk? If so, the data will be written to the appdata folder that sits on these disks based on your Telegraf interval (30 seconds is default). And if you have these 2 disks in the same spin-up group, that would also explain it. Quote Link to comment

Nope, appdata is cache only and the disk remain spun down for hours when not actively accessing the files so other than me browsing the contents or Plex/Nextcloud doing their things there's no other containers or VMs that access the array. The issue I'm having is not that the disks mysteriously wake up but that its keeping them from spinning down. At first I thought there was an issue with 6.9RC2 and people replying to my post here seem to confirm that but disabling the SMART plugin in Telegraf made the problem go away so... wut?.

Hoopster Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 8 hours ago, deanpelton said: but it does stop them from spinning down. Yep, same here. Drives will no longer spin down. This is just since upgrading last night to 6.9.0. With 6.8.3, no issues. I stopped Grafana, Telegraf and Influxdb as I only use them for UUD and the disks spun down again after the designated inactivity period. There are documented changes to smartctl handling in 6.9.0 and that seems to have impacted the way Telegraf deals with SMART as well. Quote Link to comment

If you comment it out of the Telegraf file you can keep using your dashboard, don't forget to comment out any others within that section. Does look to be an unraid issue, given the reads for the drives increment from this even though most of them are spun down. Quote Link to comment
falconexe Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Thanks everyone for reporting this issue. @SpencerJ are you and the team aware of this?

dbinott Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Wondering if anyone can help me figure out I am not getting data for some metrics? At one point I had the library data and stream data. I recently moved the server to a different location with different network, but I believe I changed IP addresses where applicable. Not sure why negative numbers in growth? Why some data about library but not others? I have disk data, but can't get overview? Edited March 2, 2021 by dbinott Quote Link to comment

deanpelton Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Happy to provide any telemetry / logs I can. I've turned off smart inputs for now in the meantime. P.S. Love the reads / disk spindown on UDs! Favourite new feature so far. Quote Link to comment
