Yes, still no luck.

Finally, I managed an RMA with the OEM & got the card replaced.

But just for our knowledge what could be the problem?? as the card was getting detected on any other system but not the initial one.
Any idea?

yes I did.

Still the same.

I had setup OMV on SuperMicro X11SSL-F with LSI 9260-8i on RAID5 which suddenly stopped getting detected after a reboot. It was working perfectly fine for over 6 months.

Tried updating the BIOS as well as it is not getting detected on BIOS boot (IT mode), but the card is working fine as I haved tested the card on other system as well.

same problem on my system as well, after turning off the system for few days.

Now that I have started, I have my RAID5 missing.

I guess that is what he is trying to do

I faced a similar issue few days ago.

Start from single - eth0, give it a ipv4 static ip (use "omv-firstaid" command).

Once it's successful created, reboot the system.

Now that you have only one NIC active with static ip use that to access your webUI and follow the below instruction.

1. Go to Network
2. Delete all the Ethernet i.e. eth0 if you're planning use it in your bonding.
3. Click on Create - Bond make sure all the adapter settings are deleted which you're planning to use.
4. Fill in the details as per your convince and tick the Nik's which you want to bond.
5. Give your bond a ipv4 static ip
6. Hit apply & wait foe couple of seconds.

Your bond is ready to be used

You try using Rclone.

It supports many cloud storage companies.

VirtualBox option seems more relevant to me for the moment.

But I will also try and run - Nginx and Apache in parallel, that way I can test the performance and limitations in both cases.

No nginx or No Apache.. NOW WHAT?

So what is the solution to setup OpenProject on OMV4?

Are you using a Soft RAID or Hard RAID?

Assuming you on Soft RAID : -

If you unmount your RAID from OMV2 and fresh install OMV4 without changing anything (I mean no change in SATA ports). It should get your job done.

Are you trying OMV2-->OMV3-->OMV4?

You are better off to do a fresh install. OMV3 to OMV4 is quite smooth, but OMV2 to OMV3 has caused a lot of problems.

I do agree with you macom on this.

Please do a fresh install for OMV4.

What about installing Debian 9, net install which is the minimum then omv would that be a solution, there is a thread on here but I can't find it.

Found it in the docs

Will try this and let you guys know.

Here is my issue. When I try to install either OMV 3.0.94 or OMV 4.1.3 on my NAS system, it loads from the CD I burnt to the blue OMV screen where you can select Install or Advanced options. If you click on Install (or Install by serial console) the screen tries to load the linux system but the screen is messed up to where you can't select any installation options.

Now, my NAS system motherboard only has an HDMI output. I have done multiple things to test this. I've used HDMI on two different TV/monitors and and HDMI to VGA on another two monitors. So, it's not the displays. I've also tested other OS's as well. I think it has to do with OMV using a wrong driver for the display, but I don't know how to fix it.

In addition, if I install it through a VM on my other AMD system on the same USB stick, it installs fine but when I run it on my NAS, it gets to the part where you can log in, but it gets stuck in a loop trying to load a Bluetooth module and trying to find an Intel driver. It loops continuously where if I try to log in, the text of the Bluetooth & Intel driver prevent me from logging in.

Here are my specs:

16GB Sandisk Fit with the OMV 3.x or 4.x OS
2 2TB drives & a spare 3TB drive
AMD Ryzen 3 2200G (Vega 8 Graphics)
Asus Gaming-ITX B350 motherboard

Any thoughts?

Are you using your USB stick to install it on some SSD? Or trying to using USB stick itself as a primary drive to boot your OS?

If I use docker - I won't be able to customize or add plugin as docker image doesn't support customization.

Hi Guys,

I'm planning to install OpenProject on OMV 4 for my team to manage project milestones and other PM tools.
OpenProject does support Debian 8/9 as per their installation guide.

Can anyone please tell me how can I install it on port [XXXX] & also be able to manage it?

Thank you for your support.

Hi guys,

I'm using SuperMicro Server with OMV4 along with LSI 9860-8i and Dual 10G SFP+.

When I was trying to bond my dual 10G SFP on balance-rr, its throwing me an error as shown below.

Can anyone tell me where am I going wrong??

Thank you for your helps.

Im no expert but form what Ive been reading everywhere, that setup and drives are dangerous as hell.

From your specs you look to want to do Raid 5 on 12 8TB Drives? That is asking for a massive data lost.
To start you are planning to do a Raid 5 of 12 drives, all good that you get around 92% usable space that is awesome, but you get a lot of failure points as well. I would use AT LEAST a Raid 6 on that setup.

On top of the fact that Raid 5 is considered to be outdated for the last 3 to 4 years, if it happens for a drive to fail, the risk of getting a unrecoverable read error from one of the drives is fairly high with so many drives and gigantic drives.

Just a small article about URE
http://www.raidtips.com/raid5-ure.aspx

And a good blog post about it:
https://standalone-sysadmin.co…e-b06d9b01ddb3#.2h4gm3j9q

So looking at the drives you were considering, I looked into Seagate Entreprise NAS, Seagate Enterprise Helium, WD Gold, an they all have a Max URE of 1 sector per 10^15. Basically, on a SINGLE drive, worst case scenario it will happen once every 1000TB read.
But you have 12 Drives and in case of a Drive Failure, your data is reliant of 11 of them, so that error every 1000TB quickly turned to 90TB (1000TB/11) , so every 90 TB read from those drives can have an error. Considering you have an Array as big, I would say that is fairly risky and the possibility of your entire Array become useless is high.

Again, Im just a home enthusiast, Im no expert on this.
On top of this, something ryecoaaron said to me made a lot of sense knowing all the risks of Raid 5 (from bitrot, URE, multiple drive failures, etc), Raid 5 is not backup. So consider having a cold storage backup, maybe something with those 8TB Drives in Raid 1 or 10.

I would talk with that media house for the need of having such a big Hot storage. I would make a fast Hot-Storage, something like 30TB or less and than have a big Cold save storage as backup in the back, maybe those 100TB.

Consider looking into LinusTechTips setup, they using 10Gbe networking, multiple servers where their Hot-Storage has been around 20TB in SSDs on a server with 100TB of cold using Seagate Drives with a diferent server.
Currently they are using I think 24 Intel 750 1.2TB Nvme drives (LOOL so fast and expensive) on their Hot-Storage and he is setting up a 1PetaByte cold storage array using FreeNAS and GlusterFS.
And they do OffSite backup of some of that data.

So yeah, reconsider the needs and risks very well with that amount of storage and people using it.

The big thing to ask is really: How important is your data and how much of it as you willing to loose?
That way you can decide what to build better.

Hope it helps.

Thank You for your support. I will definitely look into the point that you highlighted and work on it.

Will get back with new changes to the setup.

I am very excited & nervous as it's my first Big Setup.

Hi Guys!

i have been using OMV 2.2 for many of builds (over 10), but you can still call me a beginner.
Now i got a new project for a media house, they require

1. 100TB and grow upto 250TB as required.
2. 60-100 users simultaneously moving video files (VFX) to work on Nuke Studio
3. Require minimum transfer speed of 200 MB/s -- No bottlenecks (MAIN CONFUSION)

I thought of using the below specification:



Xeon E3 v1220 V3 Quad Core - 3.1GHz
8GB GB ECC RAM
LSI MegaRAID 9240-8i -- ( For RAID 5)
Norco 3U 16 Bays
12 x 8TB Segate Enterpise HDD or WD SE -- Not sure yet, have to check with the vendor.
10Gtek Intel 82599ES NIC X520-DA2 -- Please suggest other options for best in performance.

Any suggestion? where do I need to make any changes?

Try configurating power button through WebUI or CLI command

Can you provide your router details?
