shad0wca7 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I have a security DVR that can mount and record to an external NFS drive - very useful.. other than it sees the whole 25TB I have ‘free’ on the array and tries to fill it with placeholder recordings to claim the space. I’d like to be able to somehow limit this and since NFS quotas do not seem available in unraid then I have been thinking about creating a virtual disk image, mounting that and then exporting that as an NFS share. What are your thoughts on this - feasible or is there a simpler way? How would I go about doing it within the unraid interface? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Perhaps setting up a VM with a linux server would work, you could attach a second vdisk to it and share that from the VM. I don't know of a way to directly accomplish what you are asking from the Unraid GUI. Quote Link to comment
doron Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 One way to go about this could be to create a share that's dedicated to this DVR, and allocate it on one disk only. The share will presumably be limited to the size of that particular disk. Not exactly what you were looking for but may be close enough to be useful. Quote Link to comment
