That I did beforehand thanks!

 

Sidenote: This method of getting cache contents onto the array was significantly faster than what Mover was going to take time wise. Lots of small files in app data I guess slows Mover down to a point where it would take days. I suppose mover is safest way to do this but using this plugins MOVE feature can work too if you're careful, and be 10X faster

@bonienl Hi, is it possible to add new option: "Open terminal here" when browsing a folder?

Not sure if it is a bug, "cancel' does not stop files from moving. the file are still being moved in the background. I can see rsync is still in action in the terminal, and the drives are still be written on and read from, but the file manager progress window is gone.

Yes

I have a mount to a SMB share and am copying files.

The only problem is the window showing the status of the copy has vanished, its not now visible and the link at the bottom of the page has gone also.
I can see that files are still copying if I look at disk activity or go look at the actual share on the array.

How can I get the status window back, without it if I needed to cancel the copy I dont see how ?

i have the same issues, this plugin is bugged in many ways now in the newer unraid versions. I would stay away until its updated for anything beyond 6.12.8

I found another major issue with this. When nothing was showing as the progress window had vanished, I could see my disks were still getting thrashed.

When I looked at the process monitor, it had about 9 copies of (I think it was rsync) running or in a suspended state.

I could not shutdown the array as it said it was blocked, in the end I had to go kill the processes one by one to allow me to reset the array and get it back up to speed.

On mine sometimes there is a delay but it moves to the bottom of the main GUI. I you then click on it, it re-opens the main GUI.

 

One thing I would LOVE to see is the size of a file transfer during transfer so 300GB left of 500GB.

It would much more useful than % progress bar & or time left which is often not that accurate.

It would be really great to add ability to copy

files / folders full path (local, smb, nfs).

Very useful in many cases, especially when names are case sensitive…

 

can't open appdata this specific file ,it just keeps loading all the time,but i can open it in my pc with smb protocol.image.thumb.png.7c9081e8640b068174134c7ce6055ae4.pngimage.png.14d94e6f6d5737e42a967efc40cab7b4.png

I am currently copying 10's of TB around which is taking days. Whats adding to the time is that I often see the speed of transfer has dropped so I go look at the running processes to see multiple rsync's running.

 

Normally I see 3 copies of rsync running (as a group) when things are OK, but when it goes wrong, I look at the processes and I can see multiple groups of rsync. If I cancel the running copy, it normally kills off one of the rsync groups, but I am left with any other groups which I have to kill manually.

 

I am sure this cannot be normal and I am not sure what is causing the problem.

 

How can I find out ?

I keep getting a "job running" pop up anytime I try to use the plug in. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and it didn't fix anything. I also tried finding the UI in "file manager as suggested in this thread but couldn't get the UI to show up. any suggestions? 

hi, I have the same error. Have you found a solution in the meantime? best regards

The only way I got around the "job running" message when something was not running (like a phantom process) was a total reboot.

 

Sometimes I found multiple copies of rsync running and killing those would stop a real running job.

Any chance this would be able to copy from a share to external HDD can’t seem to at the minute this would be a good feature to add if possible.

Have you mounted with ud?

  • 1 month later...

Hello, I was just trying to copy 1 TB from a hard drive (mounted with UD) to /mnt/disk1/media, which is my array drive, and after 4%, the progress bar froze, as well as the speed and ETA. When I click on the two blue squares next to the red circle at the bottom left, I can no longer see which file is currently being copied in the window that opens.

 

However, in the Main tab, I can see that the writes on the array drive are still increasing, as well as the used GB.

Can we unzip a file yet?

I'm just putting a troubleshooting tip here in case someone encounters the same issue I did.

 

If you're using Active Directory with SMB and for some reason you cannot reach the AD anymore (in my case, I changed the DNS server so it could not be reached), Dynamix will be stuck loading infinitely until the AD is reachable again.

Hello. 

 

I am having a hard time understanding permissions and what I may be doing wrong.  Here is what is going on:

 

1.  I have an smb share called Users.

2.  I have given a user named bob read only to this share

3.  In the share using the Dynamix File Manager, I have created a folder called Bob.

4.  I have set the folder owner of the folder Bob to the user bob.

5.  I have given the owner full read/write permissions.

6.  Via SMB on a Windows machine, I can visit my NAS and login as bob and navigate to the Users folder.  I am unable to create anything under Users (as I would expect).

7.  In the Users folder, I can see the Bob folder.  I can open the Bob folder.  When trying to create a file or folder, I am presented with an error "Destination folder access denied" - "You need permissions to perform this action".  This is not the behavior I am expecting.  

 

Should I not be able to create something under that folder?  I am trying to give each user a separate folder under the Users folder.  I understand I can probably create an SMB share for each user, but this is the way I wish to approach it.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.

It  might be worth posting the output of 

ls -l /mnt/user/Users/*

from a console session so we can see what the permissions look like at the Unraid ;level.

Here is what you asked for, with and without the asterisk:

ls -l /mnt/user/Users/*

total 0

 

ls -l /mnt/user/Users/

drwxrwxrwx 1 bob users 2 Aug 13 11:55 Bob/

 

 

 

 

I have read your earlier post again and you said you gave the ‘bob’ user read-only access to the Users share.   This would mean that user cannot create anything new under that share when connected over the network regardless of the permissions at the Linux level.

Anyone able to add zip / unpack selection?
