  • Webgui not showing up

    Hi,


    After reading the blog tonight I thought it would be save to upgrade with mentioned command:


    Code
    omv-release-upgrade

    So I did via ssh but now I cannot access the webgui. I've tried clearing cache and:


    Code
    omv-firstaid

    It said that webgui access > 192.168.1.100:80 but doesn't respond. Reboot didn't fix either.


    So what's the next step please?


    Kind regard.

  • Performance raidz1 with Intel j5040 cpu

    Quote from Krisbee

    I'm not sure the degree to which your j5040 cpu would be limiting factor, but it depends on the overall system activity. How much RAM does your system have? The jmicron card might be a problem with zfs as it uses FIS-based (hardware) switching. You'll find conflicting opinions about that.

    That's what I would like to know. I can always opt for an 9211 LSI card if fis-based is problematic.


    My system has 16 gigs of ram. It runs only a couple of dockers. CPU will spike upwards of 75% when torrenting with a VPN docker. I get a around 140-150MB/s, which is the limit of drives themselves when downloading. Smb/NFS speeds around the same with less CPU utilization.


    Probably a good idea to use a cache ssd with zil/slog enabled and sync writes.

  • Performance raidz1 with Intel j5040 cpu

    Hello,


    Currently I'm running a btrfs raid 1 with two ironwolf 4tb drives. Worked really well but now I need to have more storage space. I was thinking about buying one or two extra disks and create a openzfs raidz1 pool. Does anyone have an idea what kind of performance in terms of reads and writes I can expect with a j5040 cpu? The sata controller is a 6 port PCI-e jmb586. I'm on 2.5Gb lan.


    Thank you for the help.

  • disk I/O stats for raid1 stopped updating months ago

    Hello,


    I was looking at some performance statistics and noticed that my btrfs raid1 storage no longer has updated stats. Even after manual refreshing it won't update. Please have a look at the screenshot. Other disks stats are fine. The plugin mentions this:


    Quote

    For the statistics to function correctly, stable kernel device name assignment for the drives to be monitored must be ensured across reboots. This can be accomplished with user-defined Udev rules that must be created by the user.

  • binhex qbittorrent webgui no longer acces

    Quote from gderf

    AFAIK, all of these QBT with VPN images will not spawn the QBT WebUI interface unless and until there is a verified working VPN connection. This where you need to focus your attention.

    I was aware of that. Gave me some headache while back when setting up. No mention of that behaviour in the readme etc. First thing I tried was setting up a new vpn connection.


    Quote from BernH

    If opnsense is blocking the vpn connection then that would cause problems. As gderf said, if a vpn connection can't be established then that will keep qbit with a vpn from working. Can you ping the vpn server from omv? If you temporarily disable the vpn for the container, can you vash into it and ping the vpn server?


    I run an opnsense router at the office and I know from experience that they are a bit confusing to configure, but to be honest, I don't use the unbound setup in there, just the dnsmasq settings for local dns resolution.


    Unbound acts as an authoritative dns for your lan, while dnsmasq is just a dns interceptor and forwarder so not as finicky to set up. If you have changed something in there recently it could be the root of the problem. You may also need to check your port forwards and/or whitelists/blacklists in there.



    Ssh into omv I was able to ping 185.65.134.76 Have not touched opnsense, disabled unbound dns blocklist to see if that helps but no.

  • binhex qbittorrent webgui no longer acces

    Hello,


    Please help me with the following. Since a couple of days I no longer can acces the webgui. Happened after a update I believe, not sure which one. This morning I saw that watchtower updated the binhex container but the problem still persists. Reboot didn't help either. I've generated a new wireguard file from mullvad and place that in the appropriate directory but still no go. Here is the log from the container:


    Tried running this command on omv in ssh but the argument wasn't valid or something.

    Code
    resolvconf -u

    Any help is appreciated.


    (btw it has been running smoothly for many months non stop until recently.)

  • How to restart qbittorrent container every x hours automatically

    update:


    Just did a bit if tinkering and it is now possible to use any wireguard configuration, that includes killswitch and custom dns. Had to redeploy the container since privoxy was not working properly. Apparently this happens from time to time and various images. Delete your privoxy folder and double check that qbit is not using the same listening port. Adjust your compose and qbit settings in webgui. Finally check your log for any errors.

  • unexplainable high read traffic on disk

    Hello,


    Please help me clarifying a strange thing that is happening on my nas. The disk reads (+-60MB/s) shown in the graph on the performance statistics page does not correspond to what is actually happening in regards to network traffic according to opnsense. Taken into account the difference between KiB/s (torrent), MB/s (omv graph) and Mb/s (opnsense). When I stop the upload the graph drops, so It's for sure related to qbittorrent. I can hear the disk is being put to work while qbittorrent is capped at 500 KiB/s upload rate (more or less verfied by opnsense). Only a few torrents are being uploaded at the same time.




    After stopping torrents:



    Thank you

  • no acces to webgui/ssh after enabling wireguard (plugin)

    Quote from chente

    To do that you need a point-to-site configuration. In this article you can see how to configure it. https://www.procustodibus.com/…ard-point-to-site-config/

    I don't know if you want to connect to a remote server that you own or a commercial remote server. If it is the latter, you will have to consult that provider about what they allow you to do. You will also have to adapt the iptables configurations to what that article says for it to work.

    That's not what I mean. Every client has individually been configured to use a vpn connection. In the future I will configure opnsense to do as you suggested.

    Seems like you have run into this before, no?

    RE: How to restart qbittorrent container every x hours automatically
    Conclusion:

    Problem:
    glueton with qbitorrent in a compose resulted in random disconnect after x amount of hours/days. Torrents wouldn't start and rss feeds stopped working. A restart of qbittorrent container was necessary to regain functionality.

    Solution:
    Switching to a different image called dyonr/qbittorrentvpn that has build in vpn with killswitch. When using wireguard make sure you configure a wireguard config file through your vpn service provider (in my case mullvad) that uses only ipv4…
    thesorcerer

    That was a problem with a docker container. Since then I used binhex qbittorrent which functions really good. I wanted to try the wireguard plugin now, thus having all my clients in my household using a vpn.

  • no acces to webgui/ssh after enabling wireguard (plugin)

    Hello,


    Tried solving this problem by myself and searched this forum for similar error but no luck. I'm trying to get wireguard through the plugin (custom) to work with the following configs:




    After a reboot the terminal shows that a connection is made with the mullvad server on a different external ip. Google is pingable and the curl ifconfig.io command verifies the external ip. But I cannot access the webgui, nor ssh.

    Then I made a change (AllowedIPs) to the config with the help of nano editor and some info on this forum:



    After a reboot the terminal shows a the normal public ip. No vpn connection has been made. This time it is possible to access the webgui/ssh.

    A final change in the config (dns) didn't help:


    The wireguard config is newly generated on the mullvad website with killswitch enabled. I've noticed when I make a change in /etc/wireguard/wgnet_mullwg.conf (AllowedIPs) and after a reboot the webgui doesn't reflect that change.


    Thank you in advance!

  • Errors with recent grub system updates

    Not too long ago a update broke the system or at least a importend part of it. Can't remember exacly what it was and the search function will not let me search my own old posts so I cannot give you an example. I believe it had something to do with grub also. But it does happen once in a while.
