Hello,

I have used my RPI equipped with OMV 3.x just as FTP server and SMB server.

I would like to limit the resources taken to reduce the CUP load as sometimes I get:

Connection failed Service nginx
followed by
Connection succeeded Service nginx

Is there a way to make the system a bit lighter for instance uninstalling some packages or disabling something?

Please advise, thanks, daniele

Hello,
can you please advise how to update or to keep up to date OMV 3?

I would say from the command line:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

Is it ok or is there another way?

Please advise.
Thanks a lot, daniele

Last week I converted my PogoPlug E02 from Debian Wheezy to Jessie and installed OMV 3.0.64. Since then, I've been trying to track down this issue. At the end I came to the same conclusion as ryecoaaron. It's my PogoPlug E02 too slow to handle all the load.

The monit service periodically test HTTP and restarts nginx when the test fails. If the system is under heavy load, the test tends to fail when nginx doesn't respond fast enough. You may disable the HTTP test by commenting out this line in /etc/monit/conf.d/openmediavault-nginx.conf.

Code

if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 80 protocol http then restart

Then restart monit. Of course, that also remove the ability of nginx restarting automatically when it really fails. So, in stead, I propose changing the line to

Code

if failed host localhost port 80 protocol http timeout 20 seconds for 2 times within 3 cycles then restart

What that line does is to increase timeout from 5 sec (default) to 20 sec and restart nginx only when tests in 2 out of 3 cycles failed. Those numbers can be changed to see what work best. At least for my PogoPlug, that change stabilizes OMV 3.0.64 to be usable even though the CPU usage hits 100% often.

With all that said, my puny PogoPlug was quite usable with OMV 2.x without having to meddle with monit. OMV 3.0.x seems to put heavier load on the box.

Thanks for advising.

I will try it.

I am wondering, isn't there a way to avoid overloading for instance reducing the priority of one ftp task?

Zitat von ryecoaaron

The RPi is slow and you are overloading it.

Use a faster system.

Thanks for replying.
I understand. Isn't there a way to transfer the backup file without overloading the RPi?

Thanks,

Hello,

I am applying to you because of an error I get and whose reason I can not understand.

My RPI is configured as a FTP server where 4 video cams continuously upload their snapshots (one every 3 seconds).

Every 3 hours a task of my computer uploads via FTP the backup of my documents directory.

During this backup I receive following email from OMV.

followed a few seconds later from another email.

What could be the reason and how could I solve it?

ssmtp conflicts with postfix because they have similar features.

Just use mailx. It is already installed on OMV. Configure notifications in the OMV web interface and mailx is all setup to send.

It works!
Thank you so much.

Hello,
can you please advise how to send mail with attachment (SMTP Gmail) from a CLI ( Raspberry pi) as I need to include this in a shell script.

Following someone's instructions, I installed mailutils and sstmp with:

- sudo apt-get install mailutils
- sudo apt-get install ssmtp

It worked perfectly but....

I do not know why but the installer (as far as I remember mailutils one) uninstalled openmediavault and I lost access to the GUI.

Has anyone an advice?

Thanks a lot,
daniele

Symlink is the windows equivalent to shortcut. Is just a file pointing to another file or folder.

I don't understand the second question. What device you want to resize ?

The device where is located the first shared folder, see first attachment on the first message. This way I would be able to create one more device where to create a second shared folder on the root.

Would it work?
Thanks

I dare ask "what is a symlink?"

If I resize the device, can I create another one where to create on the root the new Shared Folder or no way?

Thanks,
daniele

Hello,

I have created a shared folder named "Backup_NVR" in the path / of a device. See attachment.

Now I have tried to create a second shared folder named "Daniele_Backup" always in the path / of the same device. The system does not allow to create it. See attachment.

Am I doing something wrong? Please advise. thanks a lot, daniele

I will reinstall.

Thanks for your time!
Daniele

Unfortunately nothing.

Unfortunately no. What can I try?

I reinstalled with apt-get --reinstall install openmediavault

Thanks for replying. Please find below the result.

Hello,

I have made the mistake of installing mailutils that has deleted my GUI. I have installed opnemediavault once more but now when I log in, I get following error:

Error #0:exception 'OMV\Rpc\Exception' with message 'Failed to connect to socket: No such file or directory' in /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc/rpc.inc:138Stack trace:#0 /var/www/openmediavault/rpc/session.inc(56): OMV\Rpc\Rpc::call('UserMgmt', 'authUser', Array, Array, 2, true)#1 [internal function]: OMVRpcServiceSession->login(Array, Array)#2 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc/serviceabstract.inc(124): call_user_func_array(Array, Array)#3 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc/rpc.inc(84): OMV\Rpc\ServiceAbstract->callMethod('login', Array, Array)#4 /usr/share/php/openmediavault/rpc/proxy/json.inc(95): OMV\Rpc\Rpc::call('Session', 'login', Array, Array, 3)#5 /var/www/openmediavault/rpc.php(45): OMV\Rpc\Proxy\Json->handle()#6 {main}

I have checked and I have following plugin installed:

ii openmediavault 3.0.59
rc openmediavault-flashmemory 3.4.3
ii openmediavault-keyring 1.0
rc openmediavault-netatalk 3.2.5
rc openmediavault-omvextrasorg 3.4.16
rc openmediavault-remotemount 3.0.2
rc openmediavault-resetperms 3.2
rc openmediavault-wol 3.1

If I launch in the terminal (as root) omv-engined -df, the gUI opens normally.

Can anyone please help me?
Thanks a lot,
daniele

Hello,

I need help with setting the time.

I would like to schedule a reboot every Saturday at 1.30 PM.

How shall I configure the GUI, see attachment? Thanks, daniele

First, I moved the clonezilla tab to omv-extras on the kernel tab. Second, clonezilla doesn't work on the RPi.

I understand, so how can I clone the system?
thanks, daniele

Actually I have been able to create it (at last!) but now I get following error. Where am I wrong now?

Ps, many thanks for your patience!

Zitat von ryecoaaron

remotemount is the plugin for OMV 3.x. You have to enable the omv-extras testing repo to find it.

Thanks for replying.
I have installed the plugin successfully.

I would like to connect to //192.168.x.y/share using the configuration below shown but I get an error:

Do I make anything wrong? Please advise, thanks.

Zitat von ryecoaaron

You can backup to a network share using the clonezilla menu. It will ask the proper questions.

Thanks.

I have installed openmediavault-backup but I can not find any clonezilla tab. There is just the possibility to backup to a share.

Where am I wrong? I'm running OMV Erasmus under Raspberry pi3

Thanks for helping, Daniele
