Hello and welcome to the Unraid August Digest.
I'm your host, stephano Partida, and without any further
waiting, let's go ahead and talkabout all the things that went
down in August.
August was jam-packed withvideo content specifically

(00:23):
revolving around unraid's 20thyear anniversary.

That was pretty fun, and wealso got a pretty sweet video
made by space invader aka ed.

do with the 20th yearanniversary.
Be sure to check those out.
And speaking of also othervideos that came to us in August

page if you're interested inthose specifically.
Unraid 7.2 Beta 2 was releasedin August, as well as Beta 3,
but we'll get to that a littlebit later.
With Beta 2, you can expectsome updates to the web UI.

(01:32):
It received an update thatallows it to be more modern and
responsive to various sizescreens and resolutions for
different types of devices.
There's a new Unraid API thatopens the door for application
integrations and automation.
The door for applicationintegrations and automation ZFS,
single VDEV, raid, z 1, 2, 3pools can now grow by one disk
at a time.
There is additional filesystems support for UXC 2, 3, 4,

(02:00):
ntfs and exFAT.
Also, there's a very coolfeature that will allow you to
log into your UnRAID serverusing an external OIDC provider.
So anyone that uses Microsoftor Google or whomever you can
now use that to log in yourUnraid server.
That's pretty cool.
As I mentioned, the beta 3 isactually available right now as
a time of filming, because thisvideo is really late, but that's
at this point, and the beta 3brings us many fixes to the
dashboard and web UI a newkernel that allows new features

(02:22):
and so much more.
There are some known issues withthe current beta and previous
betas, like the theme engine,dark theme and dynamics time and
date.
These plugins are not compatibleand will automatically be
uninstalled if you have theminstalled, always be sure to
upgrade your plugins beforeupdating to any of the betas,

(02:45):
because this will likely affectsome plugins, like the Unraid
Connect plugin especially, aswell as the NVIDIA drivers
plugins and all of their variousforms especially as well.
There may also be visual anddashboard web UI issues caused
by the new responsive capabilityof the web UI, so this might
affect any custom plugins andthat make modifications to the

(03:08):
UI.
Be sure to give those authorstime to update their plugins
that interface with your web UI.
So hopefully all of that getsresolved as these beta releases
come out.
So definitely want to be awareof all of that and keep that in
mind.
Lastly, don't forget to checkout the Unrated Merch Store so
you could pick up some sweetmerch like this.
