First let me say this previously worked. The only thing I can think of that has changed is I added the following line to my SMB settings: max protocol = SMB2_02.

 

I have a new SMB share (and new Unraid install for that matter). I set export to Yes/Time Machine per the guides to set up Time Machine backup. All of a sudden my (incomplete) backup wasn't working. My Mac couldn't find the disk. I decided to delete the share and start from scratch. Now when I look for a drive to setup a time machine backup my share is not there. I have mounted the SMB share on my Mac so that is not the problem fix. Can someone advise how I can resolve this? Is it the line I added to my SMB settings? I would delete it but for some reason my parity check is running again.

As an update, getting rid of the line I referenced in the custom SMB config did not fix the issue. The Time Machine share still does not show when trying to setup a new time machine backup.

 

edit: after restarting the Mac and mounting the SMB drive I may have fixed this. I will post to be certain. I think it was from removing the SMB config language. I will update to be sure!
