Replaced Cache Drive...Now Can't Add Cache-only Shares

Featured Replies

When I go to create a new cache-only share now since replacing my cache drive nothing gets created.  The only thing that happens is "Restart SMB" flashes for a second in the lower left of the page and then nothing.  It doesn't bring up the SMB Security Sections options or anything.

 

Thoughts?

Remove any non-stock gui's? Since you didn't post a complete syslog with the attempt to create the share, it's tough to speculate.

I'm using stock 5.0.4 with no add-ons.

 

Here's the Syslog for when I try to create a share.

Do you have some combination of include/exclude and/or split level which makes the disks look full?

The command mkdir '/mnt/user/Downloads'  gives back an error and indicates that you're out of space.

All I'm doing is selecting cache only and leaving all other share settings as default.  And this is just for my cache drive so the other drives shouldn't even be involved.

Run check disk on the flash in a Mac or PC.

What's your cache drive look like?

Is it full? Does it have space for a new share?

 

Run Reiserfsck on the cache to check for filesystem errors.

The drive is basically brand new and is empty.  It's a 3TB Hitachi drive and I've moved maybe 200GB of data (torrents) onto it since I replaced it yesterday.  But I'll run check disk on it to check anyways.

 

I also notice that none of my shares are using the cache drive now when I copy files to them.  Something is not right.

Do not run check disk on the Hitachi drive. Run it on the FLASH drive.

Oh I see.  So you're saying take the flash drive out and put in into a PC and run a check disk?

I had the same issue, but I took the array offline, rebooted, and then I was able to create a cache-only share.   

 

I think that I had not rebooted since I installed the cache drive so perhaps the system needs a reboot after cache drive creation.
