jumperalex Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Wow that was fast Since we have your attention ... I'm curious how much trouble it would be to have a smaller vm .img ? My SSD is a bit small AND I just don't see my needing a 15GB image. I don't know if I'm even really asking for you to do anything ... mostly I'm just curious what is realistically the smallest we could make the img knowing we'd then also have a data.img? Even with all the typical applications everyone runs, how big could that possibly be? I'm shooting for something 10GB or less. Link to comment

jumperalex Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 updates? are those not cleaned up / able to be cleaned up? Plex, well I'd host the library in a data.img so nothing about plex should make the VM bigger beyond the few hundred megabytes of the install itself. I can see myself installing crashplan someday, and a torrent client but neither of those should add much to the vm image. Still, I guess I hear ya about not going below 10gb. what I need to do is bite the bullet and buy a larger SSD Link to comment
PeterB Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I've installed Arch in as little as 7GB before now, but with updates and stuff over a few weeks it filled up. I wouldn't really go much less than 10GB tbh. With, or without, a desktop? I've been running ArchVM since end of March, hosting LogitechMediaServer, Deluge, MariaDB and minidlna servers. Disk usage is currently a little under 3GB. On the other hand, my other ArchVM, running vnc/xfce and jdownloader is already somewhat over 3GB and has only been in real use for two days. So, I would agree that for running an active desktop, 10GB might be a sensible lower limit, however, as a dedicated server running only a handful of daemons, you might well consider a smaller disk image. So, I guess that the question is: How easy is it for us, the end users, to alter the size of the image file which you provide? Link to comment
ironicbadger Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 I haven't tried this but it should work (providing the tools are available in unraid which I'm not sure of). http://superuser.com/questions/24838/is-it-possible-to-resize-a-qemu-disk-image Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk Link to comment
jumperalex Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 ironic, quick (i hope) question as I work on getting Plex up and running to include moving my plug-in created library into the VM ... So Plex docs say the library should be owned by plex:plex but the default library location for your package is set to plex:users. Is that by design? does it matter since it is the users group anyway? Also did you set PLEX_MEDIA_SERVER_HOME=/opt/plexmediaserver? Because linux default is /usr/lib The reason I even dug into it is because I'm migrating my unraid plex library and I know permissions can be a gotcha. Link to comment

jumperalex Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 hmmm weird. Ok well I just use chown and chgrp to do as the plex docs said and all is working. Still trying to workout my smb mounts but i know that is well warn territory. Link to comment

JustinChase Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 SickRage looks promising, thanks for adding. I figured it made sense to update everything before installing it, but that ended in an error.

ironicbadger Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Repo URL is changing from 'unraidrepo.ktz.me' to 'repo.ktz.me/repo' TODAY ( 30/5/14 ). You'll need to edit your pacman.conf file at this time to continue receiving packages. To fix your VM you need to edit your pacman.conf file as follows... nano +99 /etc/pacman.conf Then look for the [unraid6repo] entry and edit it as such: [archVMrepo] SigLevel = Never Server = http://repo.ktz.me/repo Then press Ctrl + X to save the file and quit. Run ' pacman -Syu ' to double check it all works. Link to comment
