Unraid – can’t mount shares via NFS

Lately, I’ve had problems mounting shares on a different Unraid server. It seems that sometimes, when doing parity rebuilds or stopping and starting the array multiple times, NFS stops working. The web UI doesn’t let you know this is happening and doesn’t reflect on there.

So… I open up a terminal and enter this command to restart NFS.

 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd restart

Plex + Unraid + AMD GPU Transcoding

While moving/upgrading stuff I temporarily had to use 2 GPUs on my server; however, I want to use the AMD GPU to transcode now that it’s somewhat supported.

Using the Plex template from lscr.io/linuxserver/plex

I added a device variable called

Config 1 – card0 is my AMD GPU

Name: /dev/dri

Value: /dev/dri/card0

Config 2 – /dev/dri/renderD128

Name: whatever, called it “AMD”

Value: /dev/dri/renderD128


I was able to put some load on it by watching Live TV.

Don’t forget to install Radeon-TOP.
