Hello, Maybe beginner question here since I'm only using unraid for few days. I'm running unraid 6.12.11 with, until recently, a simple array with 1 cache disk and 1 TB drive. All my data are access throught NFS from an Ubuntu 22.04 server with no issue. My NFS configuration from unraid is the standard one (I've just activated support for hard link). I've bought 2 new disks to serve as parity drive and to extend the global capacity. I've follow-up the documentation to add the parity drive first (stop array, plug drive, assign drive to parity and start array), and during the whole time of the parity drive creation my NFS share was not accessible from my ubuntu server. Everything was green on unraid side (share visible, no change in NFS configuration, docker and VM running fine) but my data was unaccesible remotely. Once the parity drive finished to be fully configured, a restart of my server gibe me back access through NFS. I'm now in the middle of the second drive implementation (as data drive) and... issue is back. On client side, my NFS mount configuration is really simple: 192.168.x.x:/mnt/user/data /media/UNRAID/data nfs defaults 0 0 (used nfs version is 4.2) but when I try to umount or mount again the share, I face a never ending operation. Did I miss something ? Is it an expected behavior from unraid ? Thanks ! tower-diagnostics-20240719-1320.zip

Hello, I've made more testing on my side and my issue wasn't due to the array operation but to fact that I had to stop and start the array for adding my disks. I can reproduce the issue just by doing a stop / start on the array. To restore the access, i need to restart the NFS server service on unraid with the command: usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd restart This behavior is expected ?

I can confirm that the array operation was completed minutes ago adding a drive to the array on the target Unraid server. I then added the NFS share back on my servers utilizing the share. It is added perfectly and the used and free is accurate. Every pissed-off service has been restarted, and I can confirm happy again. So the target Unraid server adding a drive to the array is confirmed to have the issue.

I don't use NFS, please retest and report back if it's fixed.

Nope, just upgraded to .14 and the mounts are gone and cant connect to them.

Went back to 6.12.10 and my mounts are working again.

Any ideas?
