  1. I'm experiencing exactly the same issue, and booting takes much longer (maybe 5 minutes) than my other Unraid server. I have included the results of the command 'ls -lah /boot', and attached my diagnostics zip. I would be grateful if someone could check these, and let me know if I should also follow trurl's recommendations. Note that unlike the original poster, I have no '.rec' files. Cheers, Steve

  2. Hi - I want to use hardlinks to minimize disk activity when using Radarr, Sonarr, etc. I plan to follow the Trash guide for Unraid ( https://trash-guides.info/Hardlinks/How-to-setup-for/Unraid/ ) I noticed that when I created a sub-folder under the top-level share (data), the owner was 'root' and the default permissions were 'drwxr-xr-x'. However my existing "Movies, TVShows, etc' shares are owned by 'nobody' and permissions are 'drwxrwxrwx'. Who and what should the owner and permissions be? In fact, ALL my other shares are owned by 'nobody', and permissions are 'drwxrwxrwx'  (I am not concerned about security)

    My second question concerns moving my existing movie, tv and music files from their current shares to the new sub-folders. Can I simply use rsync or Krusader to move them? I have setup Krusader per Spaceinvaderone's video to allow instant copy/move from share to share, but does this apply to copy/move from share to subfolder under a share?

    Config folder to start.  The rest of it if it still has problems.  Most likely config corruption.

     

    Memtest ran for 20 hours with no errors, so I replaced the config folder with an earlier one, and all appears good - even Prowlarr configuration which was done after the backup used, and which I expected to lose. SMB networking is working as it should - many thanks to all!

    Samba is a little outside my wheelhouse, maybe @dlandoncan help.

    Hi @dlandon - Frank1940 and JorgeB suggested that you might be able to help with my problem. Frank's last suggestion (via PM) was to run memtest which is 3 hours in with no errors so far. If you scroll up you will see my diagnostics attachment, and the section that Frank thinks may pinpoint the problem.

    I have a Flash drive backup from before the problem started, if that's any help?

     

    Hoping you can help, Steve.

  5. I have followed the Unraid & Windows 10 SMB Setup.pdf you recommended, but I still cannot access this Unraid server via SMB. I have followed the guide to a tee, but still get the failures shown in the accompanying attachments. I can access it by web browser, but I need SMB access for my Windows 11 media player. No problem accessing the other Windows (10 and 11) and Unraid computers by web browser or Windows File Explorer. I have also included another diagnostics file.985882924_Mappeddrivefaildifferentcredentials.png.d1e80c0a935b9bfa33fa14dbb5af06ea.png

  6. Hi - I had a problem with my main Unraid server (TOWER) yesterday - the readout on the 'Main' webpage was constantly changing - no array, no Flash drive, no cache pool, all disks unassigned, etc. I tried to download diagnostics, but got a '404 - not found'. So the diagnostics attached are from after a reboot. After rebooting the array, cache pool, and Flash drive came back, and I can access TOWER from the web gui, but not from Windows File Explorer (see attachments). Disk read/write counters were reset. My backup Unraid server (Tower2) has no such problems, so I presume it is a configuration problem with TOWER. I haven't followed Frank1940's SMB troubleshooting guide yet - I thought I would post my diagnostics and see if someone could see something obvious

    Cheers, Steve

  7. Hi - does it make any difference whether disk shares are enabled or not? I have had them enabled, but I have read that I am less likely to screw up when moving data around if I disable disk shares, and work only with user shares. Does Dupeguru care whether disk shares are disabled or not?

  8. I have setup Tower2 as a backup for my main Tower server, using rsync to backup user shares from Tower to Tower2. The 'Music' share on Tower2 honours the Disk settings in the Share properties (included Disks=1), but the 'Movies' share does not (included Disks=4). Instead of Disk 4, the 'Movies' share is on Disk 2. Do I need to exclude Disks 1, 2, and 3 as well as including Disk 4 for the 'Movies' share? I thought that including Disk 4 had the same effect as excluding the other disks.

    I have attached screenshots of share settings, and diagnostics

    Cheers,

    Steve
