"Backups" share settings seem broken - can't modify settings (except name).

Featured Replies

Hi there,

I have a share: Backups. A while ago i was experimenting, and i made another share: backups (lowercase b). This proved to cause some issues, so i removed that lower-case backups share. Everything seemed to be fine after that, so I didn't think anything more of it.

I recently upgraded to 7.2.2 (from 7.1.4), and FixCommonProblems found a problem it hadn't previously identified:

* Share Backups set to not use the cache, but files / folders exist on the cache drive

I had a look at the share, and it there it was - it was actually set to only use the cache, and i can't change it. It looks like there might be some linkage to the "duplicate" backups share (as Linux is case sensitive, i didn't think it would be an issue at the time). It thinks it's not unique (according to the message at the bottom), but there is no longer another share, or directory in /mnt called backups. There hasn't been for several months.

And weirdly, most of the data is actually on 'Disk2':

So i'm unsure how to best resolve the issue. Of course, i don't want to lose those backups.

I was thinking, temporarily rename the directory whatever, say: backups2 and attempt to modify the settings and then rename back to Backups.

I'm not sure if that's a 'safe' thing to do in terms of broader unRAID settings, so i'd appreciate your suggestions or assurances.

Cheers.
