November 16, 201411 yr Great , that's the way I'm doing it. would you be willing to share? I just installed powerdown, but have no idea how to create a k script yet. Test your command line by mounting the drive in a telnet session. That way you will know if there are any issues and can sort them out before putting it in the go file. To create the daily trim script file. Put this into a file and put it on your flash drive at /boot/custom/DailyTrim: # # Trim the SSD drive. # fstrim -v /mnt/user/ShareName | logger Put the following in your go file: # # Set up daily SSD cache trim for unRaid cron # fromdos < /boot/custom/DailyTrim > /etc/cron.daily/DailyTrim chmod +x /etc/cron.daily/DailyTrim The fromdos insures that the script is in linux format with line feeds only. Thank you again!!! I really do appreciate you taking the time to help me thru this. Hopefully I can eliminate unRAID's propensity to reboot my server for no reason and stop having to 'fix' things that were previously working, and just focus on improvements to my system.

November 30, 201411 yr Author SNAP has been updated for beta 12. The emhttp file structure has changed and SNAP does not work after updating to beta 12. You can either update SNAP (do this in the SNAP webpage) before you update to beta 12, or remove and re-install the SNAP plugin after updating to beta 12.
January 2, 201511 yr I have SNAP installed and a drive set up and shared, however I cannot figure out how to auto mount and share the drive when powering on the server?
January 2, 201511 yr Author Click on the Help button when on the SNAP page and see if the help doesn't explain.
January 11, 201511 yr Question: Where does SNAP mount the drive? It's not in the /mnt folder, so if I want to move my Docker images to it, where would I reference the path? Thanks!
January 11, 201511 yr Question: Where does SNAP mount the drive? It's not in the /mnt folder, so if I want to move my Docker images to it, where would I reference the path? Thanks! Are you sure it's not in /mnt? It is at /mnt/disk for me. Note no number on the disk, unlike the array disks.

Are you sure it's not in /mnt? It is at /mnt/disk for me. Note no number on the disk, unlike the array disks. That's where it was, thanks! Completely glossed over the "disk" share. Appreciate it!
January 12, 201511 yr I noticed that you can configure where SNAP places the share. In the snap-xdrive-template file it says: [xxxx] path = /mnt/disk/xxxx read only = No Is it safe to edit this template so that the shares are not placed under /disk/? Ideally I would like to name it something else so its clear is not part of the UnRaid array, for example: [xxxx] path = /mnt/snap/xxxx read only = No Would this work? Even if it does, would any updates to this plugin overwrite my template files, thus making my paths for docker and VMs not work? Actually it would be really nice if this was customizable though the SNAP settings... possible enhancement?

January 18, 201511 yr I'm wondering if I could use this plugin to migrate an array from WHS and Flexraid to an Unraid array. I have ten disks with pooled shares (TV Shows & Movies) and two spare drives to kick off the Unraid array What I'd like to do is boot up Unraid and mount all 10 NTFS disks and share them over my network so the wife can continue to watch whatever she is choosing to watch, oblivious to the migration happening upstairs. If I could pool the SNAP shares that would be brilliant, but I could work round it if that's not possible, I understand my data wouldn't be protected whilst I'm doing all this but that's a risk I'm prepared to take as my only two alternatives are buying a lot of extra hardware or telling the wife she can't watch a lot of stuff for a while. Anybody got any ideas or thoughts on my musings then I'd be grateful to hear them.
January 19, 201511 yr So, I've successfully managed to mount my 2TB drives in SNAP and can access the shares. However my 4TB NTFS drives, connected via SATA to either the motherboard or a M1015 card (with flashed firmware) are showing up in SNAP as no fs It seems that I have theses drives as "Advanced Format or 512E" drives In my WHS2011 running Fsutil fsinfo ntfsinfo d: Gives me Version : 3.1 Number Sectors : 0x00000001d1bcafff Total Clusters : 0x000000003a3795ff Free Clusters : 0x0000000000b20a65 Total Reserved : 0x0000000000000000 Bytes Per Sector : 512 Bytes Per Physical Sector : 4096 Bytes Per Cluster : 4096 Bytes Per FileRecord Segment : 1024 Clusters Per FileRecord Segment : 0 Mft Valid Data Length : 0x0000000001540000 Mft Start Lcn : 0x00000000000c0000 Mft2 Start Lcn : 0x0000000000000002 Mft Zone Start : 0x00000000000c1540 Mft Zone End : 0x00000000000cc820 RM Identifier: 01DFFC80-673C-11E3-822B-BC5FF49F0C1D Is there any way to mount this in SNAP? Would be happy as a READ only FS as it's pretty much just to keep access to things going whilst I migrate. Thanks for any help fellas.
January 22, 201511 yr Is this a known issue, SNAP GUI returns a blank after today's LT Dynamix update?
January 22, 201511 yr Author Not seeing the issue here. Try clearing your browser cache. Be sure you are using the latest version of SNAP.
January 22, 201511 yr dlandon - I cleared the browsing cache and also tried in IE which I never use. I get a blank page. I am using which has a release date of 2014.12.17. This happened soon after I updated LT's Dynamix release yesterday. I am also attaching few snapshots of the Snap settings page GUI and my plugins. Am I missing anything here? Thank you for your plugin, I use it frequently and is very helpful. Not seeing the issue here. Try clearing your browser cache. Be sure you are using the latest version of SNAP.
January 22, 201511 yr Author I also updated to the latest Dynamix webgui and don't see the problem. It almost looks like you have an older version of SNAP. The plugin and SNAP itself are updated separately. Just updating the plugin doesn't update SNAP. SNAP updates are best done on the SNAP web page. SNAP and the plugin both will be updated through the SNAP web page. I would do the following in order: - Reboot. - Remove SNAP plugin and re-install through the plugin web page.
January 22, 201511 yr dlandon - You were right, it works now. I had to remove the existing one and reinstall the plugin. Thank you!

January 27, 201511 yr So, I've successfully managed to mount my 2TB drives in SNAP and can access the shares. However my 4TB NTFS drives, connected via SATA to either the motherboard or a M1015 card (with flashed firmware) are showing up in SNAP as no fs Is there any way to mount this in SNAP? Would be happy as a READ only FS as it's pretty much just to keep access to things going whilst I migrate. Thanks for any help fellas. So, I figured the problem out in the end. On my 4TB drives the NTFS partition is actually the second partition, so SNAP cannot mount it. My workaround is to use Unmenu to mount and share the partitions, which seems to be working fine. Although I'm sure I will use SNAP once my array is up and running for a few things!
February 3, 201511 yr Feature Request: Would it be possible to edit a file somewhere for SNAP to EXCLUDE drives from appearing in the SNAP drive list? I know I can exclude UnRAID Array Disks from appearing but I have a non-array drive connected to my server that I also do non want SNAP to list. Any file I can edit to add exclusion rule? Thanks for great plugin!! The Capt.

February 14, 201511 yr Is exfat supported? I see that on SNAP's Help page on the unRaid web gui, exfat is not listed as a supported format. On the other hand I thought I read in a post that exfat was indeed supported. I'm guessing it isn't, given my experience, but can anybody confirm? unRaid 6-beta12 SNAP 2014.12.17 "up to date" Thanks!
February 20, 201511 yr Are there simple instructions how to format a fresh drive in xfs on SNAP? I have a fresh drive I'd like to set up for appdata etc, I have it in SNAP, but no idea how to get the drive partitioned and formatted.
February 20, 201511 yr Sorted it, just added the drive to an empty array, reset the array, job jobbed.
