Been using OMV 6 on an M93 tiny with 16gb memory and an I3 for a while now. Love it. Was only 160 US, so I bought 2 more just for other Linux projects.
Thanks for another great video. The case looks great. I have set up Pi 4 in exactly this way, however just in case anyone is interested Armbian has OMV as a software for install in their armbian-config. I have used this on a couple of machines and it works well, and Id assume it would also work on the Pi4. I am really pleased you are still doing Pi 4 content.
I think the title is slightly misleading as you don't show how to install OMV6 on a raspberry pi, nor are installation instructions on the blog post. But overall, a decent showcase video on setting up the mini tower NAS by 52Pi with getting the required git repositories and integrating everything with OMV6.
The video has timestamps in the description: 01:23 Create bootable media 01:59 First boot 02:20 First login and updates 02:30 Enable ssh & i2c 03:59 Run omv6 install script 04:53 OMV is up, but let’s install case feature scripts first 07:56 Install omv-extras 09:05 Installing docker & portainer 10:08 Mounting the storage drive 10:41 Setting up the ext4 filesystem 11:25 Mounting the filesystem 11:55 Enable smb/cifs 12:14 Creating shares 12:53 Enabling shares 13:34 Accessing shares 13:52 Accessing portainer 15:08 Some omv on Pi considerations 16:55 Wrap up But here are specific points about OMV6 install, OMV Extras, Installing Docker and Portainer th-cam.com/video/lgNJm2cjnPw/w-d-xo.html - Run omv6 install script th-cam.com/video/lgNJm2cjnPw/w-d-xo.html - Install omv-extras th-cam.com/video/lgNJm2cjnPw/w-d-xo.html - Installing docker & portainer
@@DBTechYT Yes, I understand there are time stamps. And while looking at the specific time stamp about running the script, unless you run the video at .25x, you don't get to see the actual command, so the average end user can't tell if they're copying/pasting the correct command. And on the blog post, the only command available at the time of this posting is to install the OMV6 extras. Plus, at the time stamp for install, the audio/video sync is way off for a couple of seconds. But, I believe my original comment still stands, this video is more about the case than installing OMV6. Which, it's a cool little case for sure.
You're right. I missed the install scripts for OMV6 and OMV Extras in the blog post and have added them. I also linked to the Raspberry Pi Imager software. I also added all the additional resource links to the bottom of the post as well.
I have Raspberry Pi 4, openmediavault 6 and 4 USB Ports Transcend HUB3K with external power supply. All this worked for a couple of years, a month ago problems with loading started. I’ve tried different operating systems, different HDD setups. I tried to solve the problem for a month. It turned out that the problem is in the firmware of the USB hub. I downloaded HUB3K Firmware Update Utility, rewrote the firmware of the USB hub. Raspberry Pi 4 started loading normally. I hope this information helps someone.
I like your videos! I try to follow. I still love Raspberry. Now I use a proxmox server, but when I have time I still play with the pi. A fan from Hungary ;)
I am always amazed at what "Inspector Gadget" comes up with.. A new project for me now.Yay. I'm going to use my HP TINY PILOT PC complete with Tiny pilot. Another new project. I have the four bay Mediasonic fully populated and ready to rock. This looks like another great project.
openmediavault does show OMV-Extras, but no installed subpreferences (no arrow to open). there was no error during or after the installation. any suggestions?
install twice on a raspberry 4 B. OMV-Extras ist available, but not its subprograms. following your instructions - which are precise but very fast executed - i installed OMV on a raspberry 5 with OMV-Extras with the same result. Both servers work properly without the extras. thank you!@@DBTechYT
Dont make the same mistake I did. My pi was the pi-hole of my network without any DNS fallback... At one point during the installation of OMV, it removed the pi-hole (I think) thus my router was not able to communicate with pi-hole anymore =>No more DNS => No more internet connection in my house. The installation stopped, the raspbery-pi bricked and my device were all offlines LOL. I had to reboot my router to factory state. Create a new network with the same name as the last one so every devices could get the internet connection without having to reset everything. And now I'm starting back from step one lol. Little pleasures of home IT ;)
Turns out the issue was caused because I was using the wifi on my pi. Not sure if I'll have to redo everything once connected with ethernet cable. I'll try it tomorrow
After the OMV6 install rebooted the pi the install hung with "[2024-02-19 02:03:33+0000] [omvinstall] IP address may change and you could lose connection if running this script via ssh." What do I do now???? Have I bricked my pi? Reinstall the OS and start again?
@@markloughtonUK I'm on a Pi4 with 4gb and 4gb swap. I've no performance issues i can think of nor have i ever seen the swap used. docker has 10 running containers. i had gitlab running on it for a bit but removed that since i don't use it. only issue was vs code server did crash it once. cpu usage is usually below 50% unless building some big docker images
Hi, thanks for this video. I am trying to follow it and enable docker and portainer. But I have the feeling something has changed. I dont have your same menu items. I installed (fresh install) Version 6.7.1-2 (Shaitan). It seems Portainer is not there! Do I have to install docker compose and portainer separately in a terminal?

Interesting. I wish I was able to be more help, but I haven't used OMV in a long time. Even made a video about their recent series of bad decisions: th-cam.com/video/f8Yoo4FRGBU/w-d-xo.html

Hey Dave! Informative video as always. I do have a question. Let's say I am using Pi4 with SD card and have installed OMV on it. Now everything works fine until one fine day when the SD card just fails. What would happen to my data or OMV configuration? Is there a way in OMV to backup config/acl/other permissions so that one can just install a new version of OMV and just import the old settings? Lastly, how do I change the port for OMV during installation so that it doesn't use port 80? I have other service such as PiHole running on the Pi where I want to test OMV6. Thanks
Well to start, I would NEVER consider running OMV on an SD card. It's just not a good idea. As far as changing the port is concerned, you'll log into OMV, Click "System", then click the "Workbench" icon, then change the port to something else. Click save as applicable and then the page will start to reload and should eventually fail. Change the URL in the URL bar to include the new port like: your.omv.ip.address:new_port
@@DBTechYT Thank you for your response, Dave. I do have 1tb m.2 that I am planning to use with Pi4 and then connect the external HDD via the USB hub. What I am struggling with is, if tomorrow I need to change the host machine or the m.2 drive on the same host for whatever reason, how can I move my existing config to a new m.2 on the same machine or to a different host machine? Thanks
How come after install openmediavault does it not allow me to ssh into my raspbery pi 4 anymore? it keeps saying access denied. I know i have the right credentials.
I've been getting more and more of these kinds of comments about OMV lately. I suggest you go to their Reddit or Forums to get answers to these things.

Comments like this make me laugh. Not at you specifically, but the "I've done everything and it doesn't work, so now I've wasted my money" just blow my mind. You've given me no information about what the problem is or what you tried or what errors you received or, well, anything. I get that you're probably frustrated, but you've given no information here for anyone to be able to help you.

I was using OMV5 and scrapped it to use CasaOS instead. CasaOS is very good but development is super slow so I might end up going to OMV6 after all.
