Plex and all supporting services (*arr stack) are going offline for indefinite maintenance. Check Discord for updates on when services will be restored.
ETA for services coming back online is late Friday or Saturday. Maybe even Sunday. I'm sorry friends :).
Finalized Docker Compose configurations for the full *arr stack. Tuned bridge networking and DNS resolution. All containers pulling and launching cleanly.
Provisioned Ubuntu Server VM on Unraid. Configured SSH hardening, firewall rules, and fail2ban. Migrated from authentik to TinyAuth reverse-proxy authentication layer.
Completed Unraid host configuration — shares, cache pools, parity check. Spun up initial Ubuntu VM. Spent time researching best practices for Docker-on-VM vs bare-metal containers.
Moved all drives and parts into the new Supermicro SC847 chassis. Debugged HBA card passthrough issues — reseated cards and updated firmware. All 24 bays now recognized.
Ran full backups of Plex metadata, databases, and *arr configurations. Prepared Unraid USB boot drive and validated license. Server taken offline.
