  • Updates OMV4 fails

    I have not updated my OMV 4 install for months. There are no operating issues and everything working fine. However when I go to update it fails.

    From the command line running "omv-update" there are errors:

    Code

    What is a possible solution? I am linux challenged...

    thank you for anything that may help

  • New Xfinity router, NO OMV with browser

    thanks...

    @rycoaaron...

    "Why are you using the ip address instead of the system name? That is the purpose of dns."


    I had used ip address for web gui access. How to use system name? How to determine system name? What is system name?

  • New Xfinity router, NO OMV with browser

    Hi, i just had a new xfinity router installed. I have access to files and shares via windows file browser but no access to omv using old ip address.

    Using win cli, i see that old ip addresses are not there. tested listed ips for browser access... does not work...


    Any ideas where to start. Cannot use putty with old ip addresses...


    thank you

  • Considering OpenMediaVault, have questions

    Quote from tessierp

    I did have a question about your 6 drives setup using snapraid. So if I understood correctly from another conversation, snapraid will only permanently persist changes when it is executed otherwise you can revert changes? Or perhaps I didn't get it at all? Could you explain snapraid and union?

    If i remember correctly, any deletions or changes will not be permanent until you "synch" to update your system. Union is for pooling and creating volumes that can be distributed to different drives , but accessed through one interface. Also, my understanding is that the union will distribute files to most empty disk. SO, in short, you don't have to go from disk to disk to find a file or directory, instead they are presented in one interface.

    Please consider I am not a linux pro in any fashion, i am a photographer and this OMV nas storage system offered me the easiest to use option for novices like me. So, my short explanations may be invalid, but for me this is the best option for a NAS system.

    And, this forum is FANTASTIC for any level of help you may need...

  • Considering OpenMediaVault, have questions

    I have two boxes with no raid cards, not needed, one w/16gb ram, the other with 24gb/ram, one with two cpus and one with one cpu. both hardware works with nothing stressed. No raid hardware because this is feature of the software.

    One config is raid five w/four drives, and the other is six drives using snapraid and union (ext4 files). Provides all benefits of zfs... drives are not stripped, and easily swapped out if fails...two parity drives and 4 data drives provides protection and no dead files...

    The raid five box is faster because of striping drives, providing fast content for video and photoshop work and the snapraid box is for files that are rarely accessed, deep storage for archiving.

    Both boxes are connected to usb backup drives for easy to use rsynch backups as needed,

    Overall, best webgui interface and remember the original freenas developer dropped that project and started OMV because he felt more options with debian>...

  • SnapRAID and Union Filesystem No space left on device (28)

    Just an update...i had 133 gb of log files (syslog &daemon.log)...deleted older ones, was then able to use first-aid, running "apt-clean" "clear wbgui cache", then able to open admin web gui, then i disable clamd "on access scans" for all drives, which stopped continuous erros in both log files... Now back to normal operation...

  • Reinstall OMV with snapraid and existing drives?

    No need to re-install...deleted old syslog and daemon.log files that were total 133gb...the ran firstaid to "apt clean", "clear webgui cache", then able to access web gui, then turned off clam "on access scans"...this stopped continuous errors in both log file...

    Back to normal with no need to re-install!!!
