Does the Forum Software allow auto linking specific words? I would like to see "Diagnostics" automatically linked to the specific section in the Wiki.

 

Another usefull auto link could be "scrub".

Test:

 

Diagnostics

Ok, that works.

 

Any additional ones or concerns?

 

Cc @Squid, @JonathanM, @ChatNoir, @trurl, @ich777

Wow, that will save a lot of copy/paste from my canned responses.

syslog server

Maybe something on the Mover and one on file allocation ?

 

But too much might be quickly messy.

Not entirely clear which wiki links you have in mind.

 

Anything about actual procedures to follow when data is at risk I would prefer to not make it too easy for just anyone to give advice.

If you can catch a two word phrase instead of single words

docker run

or are we only doing wiki links?

Testing normal phraseology. I would like to see you add your diagnostics zip file to the next post in this thread, we may possibly find out you need to run a scrub on your pool.

Should be good.

 

Any others?

Not used as often but I think still worth adding are parity swap and shrink array, though shrink array should be edited to remove the clear-me script that hasn't worked correctly for some time, manual option still works correctly.

Good to have these easy ways to link to the wiki, but could be dangerous when a user doesn't fully understand their situation. I almost always ask for diagnostics before giving them more information even if their subject line suggests a standard wiki response.

I agree, this is mostly for when the user already posted diags or it's a clear answer, and you can always ask for diags before writing those linked words.

Good to go. if any of these become an issue, LMK and I can remove. 

Forgot this one: check filesystem

 

Edit: and this one also, turbo write

I wouldn't mind if your also add filesystem check (reverse the order of the words).   What can I say, I'm used to typing things in a certain order

What about those two? Edit: ok, it seems kernel option is missing

Test kernel option

Ok- one small parameter was missed with kernel option. Should be good now!

Please and thank you.

I've not seen a lot of questions about it lately, but it can be a confusing one to explain sometimes.

It's quite easy to understand. From the front door you go up half a flight of stairs to get to one side of the house, and down half a flight to the other. Easy peasy.

Split level is the most confusing thing about the basic OS operations.

 

I originally scratched my head in 2012, drew a ton of diagrams and have not touched it since.  Of course that was back in the day of where you'd set a number instead of the now better text, but it's still messed up.
