November 9, 201510 yr Sorry folks I know this is a nube question. Just installed PMS 6.1.3 on my new UnRaid NAS 3 drives, all show up in UnRaid and are working. Created a user share and checked "include all disks" but only "disk 1" shows and under the size header it shows the size of disk one correctly. Question is why doesn't "disk 2" show up? Thanks all. God Bless.
November 9, 201510 yr Community Expert Have you seen and read this section of the manual: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_Manual_6#User_Shares_2 Be sure that you read the section on Allocation Method.
November 10, 201510 yr Author Thanks for the reply. I have read the info and tried several of the allocation methods but still not luck.
November 10, 201510 yr Community Expert Since no one else has any thoughts on this. I am somewhat confused about what the problem is at this point. Please post up a screen capture of the GUI page which shows the issue. Also post up the Diagnostic file. (Go to 'Tools', and click on the 'Diagnostics' icon.)
November 10, 201510 yr Check your "Global Share Settings" on the Settings tab and be sure you're including all disks for use with your shares. If an individual share is set to "use all disks", it will still only use those disks which the Global settings have identified as available for shares.
November 10, 201510 yr Community Expert That is normal Unraid behavior, at first it will only create de share on the first available disk, as the disk fills up it will create it in the next disk according to the chosen allocation method. You can see in your screenshot that the total share free space is 5TB, that is 4TB from disk1 and I guess your disk2 is 1TB, so it will use it when needed.
November 10, 201510 yr As Johnnie noted, it only shows disks that actually have the share as a root-level folder, and it doesn't create that folder until it first writes some data for the share to a disk. The "clue" that all is working fine is the available space ... which, in your case, is 5TB. Since that's more than the size of your disk #1 (4TB), clearly it includes more space elsewhere -- in this case, 1TB on your other disk [which is either a 1TB disk or a larger disk with only 1TB of free space].
