So I shut down my pc, restarted it, and was able to access the server briefly for 2min, then it lost it's connection to it. But I was still able to go to the mapped drives and access them that way. Very bizarre!

If I put in \\terrafirma and hit enter, nothing happens. It won't accept hitting enter, just sits there. If I put in the ip, it opens google browser and takes me to the server login page.

Here you go. One thing I noticed is that if I reboot my pc, I am then able to access the server via Networks in Windows Explorer. I think, but not 100% sure, when my pc sleep and I wake it up, it will no longer be able to access the server but will work via my mapped drives. terrafirma-diagnostics-20260112-1230.zip

Not sure what happened but I was able to reach my server via Windows Explorer and even mapped a bunch of drives to various shares. I can access the shares via the mapped drives but I can no longer do it via Network. The server shows up, but when clicking on it I get a message "Windows Cannot Access Tower". I have no idea how this happened or why I can still access the mapped drives. Anyone have any ideas what may be the problem?

I realized I could change it after I modified all my server settings/dockers. It's all good now. I bought the TP Link Deco BE65 Pro

I recently purchased a new router and today installed it. Now when booting it up, I noticed my ip's have changed. Do I now need to go into each of my dockers and change the ip to the new one? For example, my old IP for my server was 192.168.1.x and now it's 192.168.22.x. If I look in my docker for delugevpn for the Container Variable: LAN_NETWORK it is 192.168.1.0/24. Does that mean I now need to change that to 192.168.22.0/24? I didn't expect my IP's to change...now just want to make sure I get things working right.

actually, I unistalled the apps. Turns out I don't think I'd use adventurelog. Better off for now with Immich

Well, could be I made a mistake. So I tried to install adventurelog which I had to install as far as I can tell, a database (so I installed postgresql17), PostGIS, Adventurelog--frontend, Adventurelog---backend, and Adminer. I followed this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJnoePdAhXg They all seem to be on appdata which is the cache drive. What I'm curious is, when I upload a bunch of photos to adventurelog, where exactly are they stored? For PostGres17 I have container pass as /mnt/user/appdata/postgresql17. I'm assuming this is where all the data would be stored in...?? I don't think they are stored on a share on my array but in appdata...unless I am wrong. Which is going to be a problem as I have lots of travel photos. I thought I would try it at the same time as Imich but at least imich copies the files to a share on the array. I find this very confusing.

actually searched this forum and found that 20GB for docker image is too small so increased it to 100

Hi, After installing some items for adventurelog, I just go an email warning indicating Docker image disk utilization of 72%. Description: Docker utilization of image file /mnt/cache/system/docker.img Not really sure what to do...obviously I'm guessing it I have to increase something but not sure how. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Ok got it! Thanks

Hi thanks, Just a clarification. you indicated create a single device pool for each. I'm assuming that means create a new pool with only one disk, then do the same for the other. Am I not able to create a pool with two devices without any parity/raid or duplication...if you know what I mean..?

I need a little advice. I'm slowing doing some work on my server and need some guidance on the following. My server currenty has 5 data drives in the array and 2 unassigned devices. I was thinking of creating a new device pool and moving the unassigned drives to that pool. I want to keep them totally separate from the array. Unassigned device 1 is called UnassignedDisk and has a share called Media with 2 folders below it. \temp movies \temp tv shows The other unassigned device is call DelugeDN and below that are the following folders \deluge below deluge folder I have \Completed \downloads \torrents I don't require any backup or parity for these drives. Deluge downloads and then copies over to the other unassigned device for movies and tv shows, all are temp and deleted after viewing. Hence why I don't need any redundancy. Question is..if I create a device pool with these two devices, Can I create a device pool without any redundancy? After I create the device pools, I belive I then need to go into each docker config for radar, sonar, deluge etc and modify the paths to point to the new pool devices. Is that correct? I'm assuming if I do this, I lose the current data on the unassigned devices. If so I assume I could first copy the data off to my array, then when done, copy the data back. Is that correct? Lastly, if I am doing the above, is it worth doing or should I just leave the devices as unassigned devices?

How long does it take to update. My screen shows "Performing Actions - Please keep this window open while we perform some actions" for the last 90min. I was on 6.12.14

One other thing I noticed to the above. If I copy a file from my computer hard drive to the array and then look at the folder in Midnight Commander via my server, the file name has an * in front of the file name. Those only appear on files I copy from my hard drive to the array...nto sure what that means...

I'm having a stange problem with Emby not picking up trailers that I have copied into the movie folder. For example, I have a folder called The Creator and the movie is stored in it. I then have a subfolder called Trailers, I have also tried Extras and copied an mkv trailer into that. I rescanned my library and the trailer is simply not picked up. That happenes with all movies that I seem to download to my hard drive and copy over to the movie folder on my arrary. If I download the trailer/special features via my server, say Radarr, then move the files to the movie folder via midnight commander, it's picked up properly. Just can't figure out what's the cause.

Great. Thanks

I bought a new 12Tb drive that I used to replace my 6TB parity drive. I have rebuilt the parity drive and now want to use the 6Tb to replace disk 2 in my array. Just want to make sure I understand the correct process. 1. Stop array, then unassign disk 2. Then start the array in Maintenance Mode 2. Stop array, shut down, then replace the drive and boot up. 3. Assign old parity drive to disk 2, then start the array and let it rebuild the drive Is that correct or am I missing a step?

Just an update on the above. I tried various settings and found that for the below Container Path: /tv ---> This points to /mnt/disks/UNASSNDisk/Media/TV Shows/ Container Path: /data ---> This points to /mnt/disks/DELUGETorrents/Deluge/ If I set only Container Path: /tv ---> This points to /mnt/disks/UNASSNDisk/Media/TV Shows/ to Slave Read/Write and the other one to just read/write, everything works fine.

I'm now getting this in my downloads from Sonarr Couldn't import episode /data/completed/Beacon.23.S01E03.1080p.WEB.h264-EDITH[TGx]/Beacon.23.S01E03.1080p.WEB.h264-EDITH.mkv: Access to the path '/tv/Beacon 23' is denied. I wasn't before I made the changes to Slave - Read/Write and Exclusive mode For Sonarr Permissions I have https://photos.app.goo.gl/WY11UkxLkqJySGt66

Ok that worked! Thanks! A rescan no longer shows that error. However, I still have the Slave error... Docker application Sonarr has volumes being passed that are mounted by Unassigned Devices, but they are not mounted with the slave option If I open the settings for Sonarr I have two paths Container Path: /tv ---> This points to /mnt/disks/UNASSNDisk/Media/TV Shows/ Container Path: /data ---> This points to /mnt/disks/DELUGETorrents/Deluge/ I'm unsure which I click Edit on and change to Slave.

Sorry for all the questions. I haven't been keeping up with everything for quite some time and rebuilt my server after my old one died...so lots of things have changed. So I go to Settings and set Doker to Disabled. Then go to the Main page and at the bottom click Move. Then go back to appdata share, set secondary to None. Go back to Settings and re-enable the Docker service. Then stop my array and change Settings->Global Share settings to allow Exclusive Shares. Then start up the array again Do I have that all correct?

Just a quick question. In Sonarr under Media Management Settings, what should CHMOD be set to? Right now I see mine is set to 777 - Everyone Write, but I get the feeling it should be set to 775 - Owner Write, Everyone else Read

Ok, so I set my Appdata share to array as secondary storage, then array->cache...but not sure where to disable the mover service. Edit...I think I found it. Do you mean under Settings, Scheduler, Mover Settings? I don't see anything to disable there except for logging. Also what about the slave issue?

I ran the plugin and seeing two warnings Share appdata set to cache-only, but files / folders exist on the array I'm really not sure where to look to determine how to fix this. My appdata share is cache only, no secondary storage. Docker application Sonarr has volumes being passed that are mounted by Unassigned Devices, but they are not mounted with the slave option If I open the settings for Sonarr I have two paths Container Path: /tv ---> This points to /mnt/disks/UNASSNDisk/Media/TV Shows/ Container Path: /data ---> This points to /mnt/disks/DELUGETorrents/Deluge/ I'm unsure which I click Edit on and change to Slave.
