February 16, 20233 yr I have a SMB issue that keeps coming up. Basically I am compressing a file which is streaming out a temp file over the SMB share writing directly to the array. Sometimes I get an error in my log.smbd file that says. smb2_sendfile_send_data: sendfile failed for file XXXXXXXX.zip (Broken pipe) for client ptr=0x5609e59ceec0, id=1, addr:xxx.xxx.x.xxx:xxxxx. Terminating This seems to occur in the middle of compressing, not at the end when the temp file should be renamed to the final name. When this error occurs I cannot delete the temp file from Windows. If i delete the file from the /user/ share on unraid it deletes without issue. However Windows can then no longer write a temp file by the same name. It attempts to and it shows in explorer with 0 size and the modified time of when the last file failed. Shutting down my VM and restarting also does not work. The only thing I found that resolves this issue is to completely restart samba. What is going on here and is there a way to tune SMB to prevent this error? Edited February 16, 20233 yr by johnsanc
