What’s New and Noteworthy

WebGUI: Stability & User Experience

This section includes the most visible improvements, making the user interface more reliable and informative.

• Mover Control: Added a highly requested Disable option to the Mover schedule settings.
• CPU Detection: Improved Dashboard detection for newer Intel CPUs.
• UI Polish: Fixed multiple visual errors, including:
  • Notification Agents dropdown not working in tabbed mode.
  • Visual errors displaying temperatures in notifications.
  • Fixes to sidebar theme elements (search, language, array usage).
  • The "Show banner background color fade" feature now works again.
• Search & Share Editing:
  • GUI Search results now update correctly after plugins are uninstalled.
  • The NFS Security Settings 'Write settings to' feature now functions for Public and Secure modes.

Storage: Pools, Shares, and Consistency

Key fixes here focus on making storage management more robust, particularly around Pools and the Mover process.

• Pool Consistency:
  • When 'File System Type' is set to 'Auto', all pool slots must now be populated.
  • A New Config with Preserve Assignments will automatically match pool slots to the number of disks present.
  • The pool device limit has been increased significantly from 120 to 200.
• Share Behavior: Ensured data is stored only on pools actively participating in a user share, especially when a config file is absent.
• Empty Disk Feature: Share data on the target disk(s) now remains visible during the operation.
• Logging: Reduced excess logging related to drive spin down and SMART self-tests.
• Permissions Fix: Corrected a permissions issue within /mnt/user.

Networking & Miscellaneous Fixes

• Windows Network Discovery (WSD): Improved WSD discovery, meaning Unraid should appear more reliably in Windows Network.
• Networking & VMs/Docker:
  • Fixed an issue where starting Docker could cause all IPv6 packets on br0 to be dropped.
  • Patches applied to fix VM IPv6 issues by setting default IPv4/IPv6 forwarding policy to ACCEPT and loading br_netfilter.
• System and Hardware:
  • Re-added the 'Join' Notification Agent from Unraid 6.12.
  • Added support for Intel Corporation Alder Lake-N PCH CNVi WiFi.
  • Updated lshw to support LEDs on Lincstation systems.
