Found persistent /mnt mounted in appdata folder. Cannot get rid of it. Help appreciated.

Featured Replies

Hi,

I went into the appdata folder today and noticed there a folder called "mnt".

When I went into it, it appears to be mounted to /mnt.

 

I thought it was a misconfigured container, but I've gone through them and can't find it. A shutdown and restart didn't sort it either. When /mnt is mounted somewhere else, its a cause for concern. Can I please have some help troubleshooting this??

 

It looks like the appdata/mnt has been there since early May. I only use the Unraid or DockerHub repositories. So, unless I've done a typo when setting up a docker and then removed it later, without realising the mount issue.

Probably just a symlink made by mistake?

Hi @Kilrah,

No, its not that. I ran 

 

Quote

find -L /mnt/user/appdata/ -type l -ls

To list all symbolic links. Its got to be something else. I'm guessing its a mapping in docker, however I'm not sure how to diagnose it further.

I also checked for hard links, by comparing inode numbers for /mnt/user/appdata/mnt and /mnt. They're not the same numbers, if they're hardlinked the numbers would be the same. Also, I'm not sure that a hardlink would survive an Unraid reboot anyway (never tried). If they're not the same inode, can I simply delete the /mnt/user/appdata/mnt??

 

If I'm wrong, I'm guessing it may wreck my system.

I would analyze the contents of that folder, see how much is in there, what the file dates are to see if it's just a few things from months ago and move/clean up as necessary...
