It might be helpful to add the link tot he fix6tp7update script. Here some information I found on another post to resolve an issue I had when upgrading and there was a plugin missing, openmediavulat-md from the list of available plugins.

The fix6to7 script worked. It took a little to find on the forum so I thought I would share the link that was able to finally find.

Thanks I will look for the script. have three MDADM Raids on the system. 
Hello everyone! So recently I just upgraded my main system from OMV 5 -> OMV 6 -> OMV 7. Everything seems to be going well, with one exception.
During the installation of OMV7 a message popped up about needing to install openmediavault-md for the MDADM GUI option.
When I search for that plugin it is not found.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Reinstalled OMV-Extras
Searched for new Plugins via the Magnifying glass
check for missing system updates apt update and apt upgrade
Clear my browser cache/Tried another browser
Installed the openmediavulat-compose plugin - Reaching for anything at this point.
Two notes - i still have MergeFS and Snapraid plugins installed but those are not in use on the system, in case that is causing the MDADM plugin not to appear.
Could anyone tell me is there something special I need to do to see the openmediavault-md plugin or install it in with an alternative method?
Thank you
Robert
Andy,
I have the same on my 10GbE interface on OMV5. It runs fine to another 10GbE host on the same switch. I see something similar to you when attempting to reach a 10GbE devices which on only connected via cat5E over a long distance, I get ~3.98Gbps. I know my devices are good as when I switch to a 10G-baseT SFP+ that is 80M I get the full 10Gbps.
So it could be that you have a less than great cable causing the issue. 10GbE needs Cat 6/6E depending on the length. How are the devices connected?
I installed OMV5 on my f2-221, which I believe should be the same as yours except with just 2 disk bays. I did however did a install of Debian first, then installed OMV on top of it. My fan seems to be working fine out of the box as far as I can tell. I haven't put it through much load but I'll run a test on it tomorrow to double check, but I'm pretty sure I have seen them kick off every once in a while.
I do have the LED issues as you mentioned, but if you setup OMV to send you emails for certain things then its a non issue. I do have it on my to do though to do have some type of LED script later on, maybe even just check on my RAID status but I haven't spent too much time and effort on it.
Thank you that is good information to know about the fan, I will have to give that a try and see if the device driver loads from the normal distro.
For the LEDs I have a python script that I have been working on to control the LEDs which checks the slots to ensure there is a drive in the slot. That is working, I am not a developer at all, and I am going to start working on the SMART status for the drives in the next week or two as works allows. From there it will be determining the best recheck interval for the script to wake up and look at drives and SMART data, again a work in progress along with learning will impact when this is complete.
I will need to create a github account to put my script out there when it is a little more refined and I will certainly post here once that has been done.
Thank you for posting it is good hear that others are working on this approach. Off the shelf hardware with a great software solution.
As you've stated your stripe will hold trash data I fail to see the benefit in what you're attempting to do.
Sorry I missed this question earlier. My use is very basic, recently upgraded to 5Gbps Internet and wanted to actually see that written to a system at something close to that speed. 
I know many sources on the net will be hard pressed to source data at this rate, but of course the answer to all this is because I can, maybe LOL.
So a friend of mine had TerraMaster F5-221 that he did not need anymore so I took it off his hands. I was thinking of using it as a remote NAS for family and started to look into what could be done with it.
Specs:
Intel® Celeron® J3355
Upgraded to. 10GBs of Memory
Dual 1GE Ethernet adapters ( Realtek )
HDMI Video
2 x USB 3.0 external
2 x USB 2.0 internal
64GB USB 3.0 Boot device
After playing with TerraMaster OS if found it to be a bit of a kludge and of course thought "Why not try running OMV!?"
After a little bit of research it appears that others have gotten OMV to run on this device. I could find references to OMV 4 being installed but nothing more recent, at least not that I could find.
Having just upgraded my "play server" to OMV 6 I thought, "Why not try that on the F5-221?". I downloaded the install OMV 6 image popped it on a thumb drive and then hooked up a USB hub so I could use a kybd, boot USB and my target USB thumb drive.
Under the Startup section of the BIOS I changed the following:
Full Screen Logo Show: Disabled
Boot Options Filter: UEFI Only
Video: UEFI Only
Other PCI Devices: UEFI OnlyOnce I restarted the device it saw the installation USB and begin the install process. I selected my 64GB USB thumb drive as the target and off it went and soon I had a new OMV 6 bookshelf NAS.
There are only a few gotchas when it comes to running OMV on this hardware, that others have mentioned.
1) The sensors are uses a very old chip that does not have a mainstream driver, my box is running an it8613E chip.
2) The LEDs are driven by a custom driver from TerraMaster and will do nothing without this driver.
Luckily there are work arounds for these two issues.
Item 1:
There was a driver released that may work with this chip, however the author has removed the driver from GIT but there are a couple mirrors of his repo.
https://github.com/a1wong/it87
https://github.com/hannesha/it87
I have not gotten either of these to work reliably, but I am also not great with Linux drivers and am still working to get one of these working.
Fortunately you can also configure the fans in the BIOS to run all the time and they are not too loud.
Under Advanced -> H/W Monitor -> System Fan Mode Setting: Full on ModeThere is this item that is supposed to allow you to control the fans, but I have not had time really work on it as my sensor drive is not loading at boot so I need that working first.
https://github.com/ahmedmagdiosman/terramaster-fancontrol
Item 2:
There is a driver that has been developed that will let you echo a value to each led driver to set the color.
You can find that driver here;
https://github.com/arnarg/hddled_tmj33.
With this driver you can not turn the LED on, make it Green, Red, or Orange, or turn it off.
My next step is to try and develop a script or something to will check the smart status of any drives installed and change the LED for the drive to the appropriate color.
I am looking into smartcontrol which is what OMV uses to provide the S.M.A.R.T status for drives. The script that has been developed for OMV is really nice and provides a few different cases of drive health. Unfortunately I am not a developer and while I can sort of follow the PHP script that I found my lack of basic understanding on PHP is limiting me.
A version of the script that OMV provides is HERE.
My goal is to hopefully leverage this script, or at least the logic within it to send the appropriate commands to the LED drivers so the indicator matches the S.M.A.R.T. status in the OMV Dashboard.
As drives can change devices based upon what slot they are within the system, 2 drives vs 5 drives I need to leverage lsscsi to match the "Slots" to the drives. We can not assume the /dev/sdb is always in slot two and do not want to set the wrong LED to the wrong color.
root@tmvomv6:~$lsscsi
[0:0:0:0] disk ATA SNXXXX /dev/sda
[1:0:0:0] disk ATA SNXXXX /dev/sdb
[2:0:0:0] disk ATA SNXXXX /dev/sdc
[3:0:0:0] disk ATA SNXXXX /dev/sdd
[6:0:0:0] disk USB SanDisk 3.2Gen1 1.00 /dev/sdeAs I am not a developer this will certainly take me some time to work through and welcome any insights or information others may wish to offer. So far this little box has been fun to play with and work through and hopefully others will find this information useful.
MarcS,
Switches operate on Layer 3, the network layer. IP (TCP and UDP) are on Layer four and switches do not speak this.
gderf Meant to say switches operate at Layer 2. Routers operate at Layer 3, IP, IPCMP, etc. This diagram does a pretty good job of explaining the separation.

This one as well.

Thanks I reverted the LBA back to 512k and am going to see about getting the performance out of a single nvme drive and then move on from there.
This has all been a bit of testing as I migrate to my new server and I am trying a few different things while I get it all setup.
I follow the byte length information, and I am writing large files which why I wanted to see about increases the size. However my testing after setting up the 4096 LBA and creating the stripe with a 4096 block yield slower performance than the LBA at 512 and the blocksize of the FA at 4096. I will keep playing with it.
Right now I am moving over my JBOD so that has taken most of my time so far today.
Thank you again!
Zoki,
I can not seem to find the page that mention that. One day I will learn not to have 50 pages open while researching. When I find it again I will post it.
I do not have any special requirements just trying to get the stripe to perform better than a single NVME that is a member of it. I am going ahead and formatting the raid via the gui to get it so I can continue testing based upon the updated LBA.
Since this is a stripe that will hold trash data I can start again if I need to change the block size.
As to the question about the filesystem not being able to be mounted in the GUI is there something that can be done about that?
Hello,
I am working to create an NVME stripe in my system and have gotten to the point where I need to put the filesystem on the stripe that was created with mdadm. I would like to use a block size larger than 4096. Specifically I would like to use a blocksize of 16384.
I created the file system with mkfs.ext4 in the command line and it appears in the GUI. However when I attempt to mount the FS in the GUI is returns an error and can not mount the FS.
I have since deleted the filesystem and would like to know if there is a way to set the blocksize via the GUI or how to property create the FS in the CLI so that the GUI can then be used to mount it etc.
The reason for the large blocksize is that everything I have read online about doing this says the block size of the FS should be LBA x N(number of disks). THe NVME drives have been reformatted to use 4096 LBA.
System is OMV 5.6.24-1
4 x 1TB NVMEs
64GB Ram
Intel Xeon 6130
I have an existing Raid 6 for my shares and I am booting from a separate 1TB NVME in the system.
I am still learning my way around Linux so I most certainly doing something wrong and any help or advice will be welcomed!
Thank you. I will try it. But I don't find an option in Kodi or MrMC to change the NFS-version.
If you are running MrMC there is no way that I could find to choose the NFS version that client uses. That is why I mentioned the use of the export in the NFS path. I struggled for a day after moving from OMV 4 to OMV 5 and not being able to get NFS shares connected on MrMC, turned out I can not type well with an apple remote.
If you use the NFS4 mount point of nfs://IP_ADDRESS/MOVIES and not nfs://IP_ADDRESS/export/MOVIES MrMC will not connect.
Aside from that my configuration is very straight forward the only options I have on my NFS shares as what come as default.
no_subtree_check,insecureOh one other note, within MrMC you will most likely not be able to browse for your NFS shares. This has something to due with NFS in Debian and I have not located what the NFS advertisement protocol/feature is called to try to enable it. So you will have to type the share in your connect media screen.
Let us know how you make out.
Display MoreI'm using OMV 5.6.22 and Kodi 19.3.
I am unable to access OMV with NFS using Kodi, or MrMC. I have tried different server options. Like this:
- insecure,no_subtree_check
- insecure,no_subtree_check.all_sqash
No success. The access via SMB works.
What can I do? Thanks!
I was having a similar problem with my NFS shares and it turned out to be the NFS version that the Kodi client was using. I am using MrMc so I do not have direct access to a CLI on the client.
You can run sudo showmount -e on your server to check for the NFS shares and that the shares are available. Also when you setup your kodi client try to use the NFS3 mount points.
nfs://<IP_ADDRESS>/export/sharename/folderinshare
Thanks! Just installed this on my new build looks great!
For others looking at the build instructions on GIT you need to change the theme-custom.* to theme-custom.css.
Thank you again for the great theme!
This may seem like an odd response, but how long did you wait for the Pi to boot before attempting the connect to it? I have seen Pis take several minutes after power up to ready to serve requests. If this is an older Pi or a slower SD card you may just need to wait a little longer.
Once you are on your console I believe you can see if the omv-engined is running with:
sudo ps ax | grep omvYou can also see if sshd is running on the Pi:
sudo ps ax | grep sshdFrom the console you can also try connecting to the pi with ssh:
ssh pi@localhostFrom there check the network to see if you can ping your default gateway etc. It may seem basic but I am still finding these steps helpful after all these years.
Display MoreI am new to OMV and having trouble mapping to windows. My issue seems to be different from those covered in other threads.
I can connect to OMV only if i login as root or with users in OMV admin group. I want to be able to login as regular user. I get user "User or password is incorrect" error. I see the samba logs confirming as below. However, I have the right password as I can ssh.
Auth: [SMB2,(null)] user [.]\[XX] at [...] with [NTLMv2] status [NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD] workstation [XX] remote host mapped to [.]\[XX].
Any help understanding the issue will be great. Thanks
One of the first things that got me when I started using OMV a few ago is that the permissions on the "Shared Folders" are set correctly for the users.
Shared Folders -> select the share and click privileges and make sure the users have the proper permissions to the "Shared Folders".
Of course I am new to the forum and this could be something completely different.
For Samba there are some suggestions that might be helpful here, Solutions to common problems #5. I used this information to set my SMB version to help speed up my connections perhaps there is something with the version of SMB that your client is using that could be the issue.
Latest Update: Still seems to be working. There was an issue on the client related to the MTU, but I have not been able to replicate the issue since it fixed itself.
If anything changes I will be sure to post an update.
Good Afternoon,
After cutting over to a new OMV 5 build the OMV GUI stopped working. I did perform an upgrade to 5.6.22-1 and it seemed as if the OMV UI was still working. I rebooted my server and it would seem that the UI no longer responds.
All other services are fine, SSH, Portainer, dockers are working fine, just no OMV GUI.
The page is attempting to load but I am not prompted for my credentials and the page just continues to "load" in the browser.
I have tried two different browsers, Firefox-Normal and Private mode (95.0.2) and Safari (14.1.2) and both are showing the same issue. Also tried on my iPad and same result.
I have been searching for a few hours on what my be the cause and solution but have had no luck.
Steps I have taken so far:
1) Updated OMV, via apt-get --reinstall install openmediavault, now running OMV 5.6.23-1 - No luck UI still not completing load.
2) I have changed the permissions on the /var/lib/php/sessions directory per another thread - No luck UI still not completing load.
3) I have changed the port in omv-firstaid to a different port and the same issue occurs, site is there, never receive a login prompt and the page does not complete.
4) I have cleared the web control panel cache via OMV-Firstaid, same result
5) I have added the following line to the /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params, no luck
fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;6) I purged omvextras package and reinstalled omvextras as outlined in this thread, ryecoaaron post. no luck.
7) I have rebooted the server, no luck
Would anyone happen to have some ideas to point me too on why this is happening?
Update: for some reason it started working perhaps it needed a few hours to complete something within one of the upgrades?
I am still posting my questions for input by the more experienced community and of course it may happen again and advice will help me capture needed information.
Thanks and sorry for the wall of text.
