Unraid Integration

New in v24.38. If you run an Unraid box alongside your WolfStack servers, you can now see it inside WolfStack — array health, every disk with temperatures and error counts, user shares, parity status and history, plus what's running in Docker and the VM manager. No agent to install on the Unraid side: WolfStack talks to Unraid's official API.

Open your cluster in the sidebar, click Storage, then pick the Unraid tab. Register as many Unraid servers as you like — each belongs to the cluster you add it from.

What You Need

• Unraid 7.2 or newer — the API is built in. On Unraid 6.12+, install the free Unraid Connect plugin first.
• An API key — created in the Unraid web UI under Settings → Management Access → API Keys. Give it read access to the array, disks, shares, Docker, VMs and system info. WolfStack never writes to your Unraid, so no write permissions are needed.
• The LAN address — register the server by its local IP or hostname (e.g. https://10.0.0.40 or http://tower.lan), not a myunraid.net address.

Connecting a Server

1. In the sidebar, open your cluster, click Storage and pick the Unraid tab.
2. Click + Add server.
3. Enter a label (e.g. tower), the server URL, and paste the API key.
4. Leave Accept self-signed TLS ticked unless your Unraid has a real certificate.
5. Click Add & test — WolfStack verifies the connection before saving anything, so a typo'd key never gets stored.

The API key is encrypted at rest on the WolfStack node (AES-256-GCM) and is never sent to your browser.

What You See

Tab	Contents
Overview	Array state and capacity bar; every disk with its role (parity / data / cache), size, filesystem usage, temperature and error count; user shares with usage, cache mode and LUKS encryption badges; live parity-check progress.
Docker	Every container on the Unraid box with image, state and autostart flag. Read-only — start/stop stays in the Unraid UI.
VMs	The Unraid VM list with run state. Read-only.
Parity History	Past parity checks: date, duration, speed and error count.
Settings	Add, edit, test and remove servers. Editing never requires re-entering the API key unless you're changing it.

Good to Know

• Read-only by design (for now). This first release is a window into your Unraid, not a remote control. Parity-check control and container/VM actions are on the roadmap.
• Disk temperatures show a dash when the array is stopped or a disk is spun down — that's Unraid not reporting, not a fault.
• Permission errors name the field. If the Overview tab reports a GraphQL permission error, your API key is missing read access to that resource — edit the key in Unraid and grant it.

Also worth a look: the Storage Array page manages mdadm/NoNRAID parity arrays on your WolfStack nodes themselves, and TrueNAS Integration does the same job as this page for TrueNAS boxes.

Try this on your own servers

WolfStack is free for personal use and installs in about two minutes — one command, no agents, works on any Linux server or Raspberry Pi.
