SMB Share Changes not Applying

Recommended Posts

When I go to make settings to a User Share - i.e., change the SMB Security to Private, or change the Use cache disk from No to Only, after clicking Apply my settings are reverted and not saved.

 

I've tried restarting the array in maintenance mode and rebooting the server, and the changes still persist. Any ideas?

 

Thanks

From your description it sounds as if there might be an issue with your USB drive?

 

if you provide the diagnostics zip file (obtained via Tools->Diagnostics) that will provide information that others can examine as to whether this might be the case.   Ideally you could give an idea of the time when you tried to make such a change to help with pinpointing the area of the logs in the diagnostics that are likely to beof most intetest.

So I checked in the syslog and I see many lines of this repeated. Attached the full diags. I'm not using a USB drive at the moment.

Ha, oops. 

 

I made the USB stick months ago... Pretty sure I just followed the directions from https://lime-technology.com/getting-started/

I had changed shares settings in the past without issue, but it's been a while so I'm not sure what could have changed.

 

It happens from time to time.  You created the USB drive properly but some error has now put it in read-only mode.  This has happened to me a couple of times as well.  Simply remove the USB flash drive from the server, put it in a Windows machine and run chkdsk on it.  This has fixed the read-only situation for me every time.

This worked for me. Thanks!
