Unraid version 6.12.8

 

Have an Unraid server set up with shares for Time Machine backups for two machines in our shop.  The server has 4.19TB total storage across all it's drives.

 

The first share is set up with the TM volume size limit set to 1TB.  The machine that connects to it for backup works, but the size in TM preferences shows it has 4.19TB available to it, when it should show 1TB available.

 

The second share is setup the same, but it correctly shows 1TB available, but the backups always error out.

 

Not sure how to proceed.  Thinking I should try to delete the shares, and start over, but I can't see where to delete a share.

Clarification

Okay, still fighting this and no one seems to have an explanation.

 

I have two computers in our shop.  Both are running OSX High Sierra 10.13.6.

 

On Unraid, I have two shares, identical to each other except in name.  Each one is a Time Machine share for each computer in our shop.  The entire array is 4TB, each share is set up to limit the Time Machine to 1TB.

 

Shop machine 1 Time Machine window shows 792GB of 1.0.5TB available.

Shop machine 2 Time Machine window shows 931GB of 4TB available.

 

I don't know why one share is displaying the available space correctly and the other one is not.  I tried deleting and re-creating the shares, same thing happens, so recreating the shares had no effect.

 

Further testing has shown that it doesn't matter which computer is attached to which share, it is always the first created share in Unraid that displays the wrong value, the second share always displays correctly.  This eliminates the cause of the problem being either of my two different computers running the same OS version.  This has to be an Unraid problem at this point.
