Hi,
I want to use screen as a terminal window manager in OMV. Could someone instruct me how to install? I tried to search in the forum and I got a lot of results regarding the word 'screen'. But nothing seems to be related to the screen utility. I couldn´t believe that no one is using it.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
das Thema wird u.a. hier behandelt: http://forum.openmediavault.or…ugin%2Brestore#post105760
und hier: http://forum.openmediavault.or…ugin%2Brestore#post135944
Im 3. und 6. Post nimmt @ryecoaaron dazu Stellung, wie das Restore geht. Er verweist da wiederum auf einen weiteren, allerdings recht langen Thread.
Manchmal hilft einem die Suchfunktion im Forum. 
Für Backups der Systemdisk verwende ich persönlich das Clonezilla Tool, welches in System -> OMV-Extras -> Kernel-Tab enthalten ist. Das liegt mir besser.
There is a stable release (OMV 2.x) that beginners can use.
I surely would still use OMV 2.x, if ZFS would be available anymore. So I am also very interested in a stable ZFS implementation and -plugin.
So for me always a hard question is to decide whether is it necessary to install a new version of OMV or a plugin or not? Is it a bug fix or do I get new problems with it? I always read the release notes before installing but that not always help.
And another question is: If I know a stable combination of OMV version and plugins how is it possible to install exactly that versions later again e.g. after a system crash? I think that must be done by CLI but neither I am familiar with debian package handling and repositories nor I know were to download earlier versions of OMV or the plugins. Does anybody has some information about that or a link for me?
Thanks in advance.
Frank2: Fährt das Nas auch gleich wieder hoch, wenn du den BIOS/UEFI Wake Up-Timer ausgeschaltet hast? Ich würde im BIOS alles auf Defaulteinstellungen setzen, ggf. WOL aktivieren und dann nochmal testen, ob das NAS über das OMV Menü herunterfährt? Wenn dann alles so wie gewünscht ist, den BIOS Timer wieder aktivieren und sich so langsam heran tasten.
Ich hatte / habe ein ähnliches Problem mit meinem NAS. Nach dem Einbau einer USB3-Karte und einem Shutdown aus dem Menü fuhr das NAS herunter, schaltete sich kurz aus und dann wieder ein und fuhr wieder hoch. Irgenwann habe ich dann durch Zufall gemerkt, dass es das nicht mehr macht, wenn ein USB-Stick an der Karte angesteckt war. Kein Witz - ist tatsächlich hier so. Mittlerweile geht das Herunterfahren auch ohne permanent angesteckten Stick, möglichweise hat hier einer der Systemupdates etwas gebracht.
Möglicherweise eine Unverträglichkeit der Hardware mit einem Treiber von Debian / OMV?
It ´s only a flaw. Really no big matter.
Today I did some test with automatic generated zfs-snapshots. There were 62 snapshots created overall, whereof only the first 25 are shown on one page in the ZFS snapshots tab.
So there are 3 pages at all. But the page counter shows " 1 of 1" page.
Only after switching to the next page the counter is updated to page "2 of 3".
when you put the new drive in, you can give it the same UUID as the previous drive (this is what I would do).
@'henfri: You can use 'tune2fs' for that. Use 'blkid' for getting the current UUID (with the old drive of course!).
And one question, it is possible, when I delete a file from SMB on windows, to send this file in a temporary trash folder on the NAS
In the Samba share settings you have to enable recycle bin.
i have to use anolther hdd to store data?
Yep. If you want to use the OS disk for data you have to repartition it manually with e.g. gparted. There are several threads here how to do this.
Just an idea: the language setting is stored in a browser cookie. Did you tried to delete all cookies and the browser cache already?
All my disk are in NTFS filesystem
Why do you use NTFS as the disks filesystem instead of a native linux filesystem like e.g. EXT4? The common opinion is that NTFS is O.K. for data exchange with Linux but should not be used permanently.
What is the correct way to save my configuration before I try to install any of the omv-extras?
I personally use clonezilla for that purpose. Before I make a major configuration change I create an image of my OMV system disk. Indeed it is a little bit laborious and needs to shutdown the Nas. But if something goes wrong I have the possibility to go back to an earlier state and can start another try. The usage of clonezilla is quite easy.
You can enhance the scrollback buffer from 200 (Default) to e.g. 10000. Then you should be able to see the complete command output.
Hi,
I have seen that some persons here are using this boards, ASROCK C2550d4i and C2750d4i for their NAS solution. Me too.
These boards currently have a firmware bug which causes BMC flash memory to be written every time the watchdog is patted. Given enough time, the flash memory massively exceeds its rewrite capacity.
I have heard about this today the first time. I will install the new BMC version immediately.
More Details and a workaround to avoid this: https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?resources/how-to-avoid-dead-asrock-c2x50-d4i-boards-by-disabling-the-watchdog.16/
This bug has nothing to do with the LPC-Clock-Bug!
Asrock has currently released a new BMC firmware 00.30.00 which solves the watchdog bug.

I have posted this message already in the General forum, but this maybe the wrong one? Sorry for posting it a second time here in this board.

P.S. Why is my post marked green?
First you could try the apt-clean button in OMV-extras.
I had a similar problem with a broken package when trying to update the basic installation of OMV3. It did this:
Login as root:
apt-get dist-upgrade
After finishing:
omv-initsystem
This has helped me.
Please also have a look at:
http://forum.openmediavault.or…n-3-0-59-3-0-60/?pageNo=1
I also had this problem, that the recycle bin was not cleared after the defined time period.
I found a script in the nas4free forum which deletes the files in recycle bin after a time period, which can be defined within the script.
In OMV2 the script was executed at shutdown. In OMV3 I didn´t get it to work at shutdown, so I created a hourly cron job for that.
you can also try booting from LiveCD of other Linux OS and using gparted to shrink the OMV partition.
than adding partition to the empty space.
this should be ok since you will not change uuid or anything this way I think.
I did it with Gparted and this is working without any issues. First you have to reduce the size of the OMV partition. It takes some minutes. Then you can use the free space for a new partition and format it with EXT4.
At last you have to mount it in OMV.
But nevertheless it is not recommended to use it for data storage. I use it to have a free storage space available for testing purposes, in the case of having my ZFS pool exported. And for some user defined scripts which I didn´t want to store on the OS disk.
And go away
Harsh words. Please keep calm. Everyone should be allowed to express its personal opinion.
I also think that this is a very friendly forum and the mods (and all other forum members for sure) do a very good job and are really interested to support their users.
But indeed OMV may not be the best solution for someone looking for a out-of-the-box-usage. A minimum of familiarization is required.
A side note: I had bad luck with two WD 3TB hdds in the past.
I have four of them (from two different suppliers) and no issue at all. Fortunately 
The 700W PSU is oversized for a this configuration. Could you change the PSU by a different type with less electrical power for a test? The max power of a PSU should be roughly fit to all active components in a NAS with a sufficient spare power for power peaks e.g. during hard disk startup-phase.
Sofern eine Fritzbox verwendet wird, kann hier ein Haken "Aufwecken bei Zugriff aus dem Internet" gesetzt werden.
Danke, so geht´s natürlich schon. Letztlich wird aber auch nur ein WOL-Paket o.ä. verschickt, nur eben von der Fritzbox an das NAS.
