Just wanted to say that the OMV update seems to work fine for me The FTP now comes online after every reboot.

I don't want to go back to Windows for my server... OMV runs so much more reliable.

Yes very frustrating FTP is one of the things I liked about this system.

Here is a workaround

make a file in /bin named monitor

Bash

#!/bin/bash


service=$@
/bin/systemctl -q is-active "$service.service"
status=$?
if [ "$status" == 0 ]; then
    echo "OK"
else
    /bin/systemctl start "$service.service"
fi

set permissions

Code

chmod 755 monitor

run it with cron command monitor proftpd

I did

crontab -e

Code

* * * * * monitor proftpd

There is already a cron running that checks the services already a simple code change would restart any enabled services that are not running. This should be part of the of the package anyways. Maybe someone can contact the developers and suggest this.

Hope this helps

The file has to have no ending like "monitor.xxx" just "monitor"?

How do I run it with cron command? What times do I need to set? I googled that but all the tutorials are different.

Is there any way to stop the script after like 10 retrys to start the server? I don't want my FTP stuck in an endless bootloop when I screw up the configuration again.

It would be interesting if this is a hardware or software related bug. I wonder why it works for some users and not for others.

It's pretty annoying too that the server can't do reboots without a babysitter.

A workaround would be that the FTP gets shut down and restarted 1 minute after a boot/reboot happend. But I don't know how to do that, I'm not a programmer. In Windows I would use a batch script and put it into autostart but thats not going to happen with Linux.

I fixed it! I had to force UTF8 ON in the FTP clients. Now the uploaded files are visible in FTP and SMB.

Nope doesn't fixed it. Files still stay invisible in SMB share. Within the FTP server those files work just fine even with different FTP clients.

Hi there!

When I upload files via FTP to my server that contain special letters like "ö" they are completely invisible on the SMB share. You can read/write/delete them over FTP but they are not exsistent in SMB.
When I upload these files via SMB they show up just like normal.

How do I fix that?

Ah ok it's directly in the OMV-extras und not the plugin list. Didn't see that.... Thanks!

I didn't find any VM plugins even with the OMV-extras installed. Will there be a plugin any time soon?

The T2 is basicly the same just with 2 ports on the card. That might be a good option as well.
Thanks!

I like to solve a problem and know the answer on what exactly went wrong. This is the only way I know what to do when it happens again. ...and there will be more NVME SSDs for sure...

On OMV its not a big deal to make a fresh install but on my gaming system for example it takes a whole week of work to reinstall Windows and configure everything like it was before. (there is a ton of software on that thing) So in that case theres no other way than to find out what is actually wrong.

Here is my thought on what went wrong:
I installed OMV without the second NVME SSD.
The LAN adapter was called "enp7s0" by OMV.
Then I installed the NVME SSD.
Now the name of the LAN adapter changed to "enp8s0".
OMV still has the old LAN config on boot and doesn't realise that the hardware configuration has changed.
So no LAN adapter gets activated because the default setting seems to be disable all.

Maybe an admin can make some kind of a FAQ or sticky thread like: "How to install an NVME SSD in OMV"
There's like no information anywhere that you need to make a new LAN config after installing an NVME SSD to get OMV back online.
Man that was one nasty problem for a non-Linux guy.

Zitat von Adoby

Try some other operating system and see if you can access both NVMe drives and use the LAN at the same time.

If you can't then I suggest you contact the manufacturer of the motherboard.

You could try with Ubuntu on a thumbdrive for instance.

I already solved the problem look on the post above. OMV-firstaid did the trick.

Configure the network interfaces using omv-firstaid

I did it! The server is back online with more NVME storage! That omv-firstaid thing works very simple and nicely! Even a linux noob can use that. Why is that not in autostart after you login with the command line? So good!

Thank you very much! You're the man!

Now I'm back to only 1 problem. My "not on it's own starting" FTP server.

How do I do that?

This is from the OMV interface. The networkadapters in the OMV webinterface and in the console have different names?!?!? The now working LAN port in the console is named enp8s0.

This is what I get with ip addr show:
forum.openmediavault.org/wsc/index.php?attachment/13362/

Edit: When I enter "ip link set enp8s0 up" it turns the LEDs on the LAN port on but it doesn't get a connection.
When I reboot the server the LEDs on the LAN port are off and "ip addr show" shows the adapter as "down" again.

Ok another update!
After I entered "dhclient enp8s0" my server has a working LAN connection again! Even the SSD is working.

BUT every reboot the LAN ports are turned off again.
How do I get them to turn on with the SSD installed when I boot the server likr normal. I don't want to turn on the LAN ports every time by hand. Is this maybe a bug?

So I get this from lspci:

The LAN adapters are there but don't do anything. This is very confusing.

I use PuTTY all the time. ...but that needs an active LAN connection on the server...

Zitat von subzero79

How do you know the lan ports are dead? Have you check lspci once Server has boot if the controllers are there ?

The LEDs on the ports are off. Also I can't connect to the IP that the adapter has. The LEDs on the switch are off as well. So the adapters are not even syncing with the switch.

This is the first time that I hear about that lspci check. Sorry this is my first time with Linux. I don't really know where to start looking, that's why I wrote this thread. I can fix almost anything on a Windows system but Linux is like learning to walk again. Quite hard.
Also I have no monitor or KVM over IP near my server, so I have to move the server every time I need to have a physical screen.
I'll check lspci tomorrow!

Yeah no BIOS update. It's already on the newest version. As long as I stay in the BIOS the SSD and the LAN works just fine.

So when it's a Debian Issue... ...how can you fix that? Is there something like a device manager so I can somehow find anything out why my LAN ports will not work with the SSD?

...no I need the second NVME SSD. I can't store the data in the air.

I will contact the Gigabyte support as well just to make sure.

Ok it's definitely an OMV issue. I bought an adapter to put the SSD into a normal PCI-E Slot. Even the GPU slot which is wired directly into the CPU gives me the same error.

As soon as OMV is booting the LAN ports are dead.

I have no idea how to find out what is going on

Hi there!

Is there any list where I can look up what 10G network hardware is working with OMV?

Or does anyone have an Intel X540-T1 and can confirm it working? I don't want any DIY-hacked-driver-special-install that takes 4 weeks to get it running.

Thanks!
