It's not easy to mount 2 different team shares. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I have created 2 rclone_mounts scripts for my 2 crypts (googleFi & googleSh). But no matter what I try I can only get 1 mount script connected depending on which one I start first.

I've tried with 2 x RcloneRemoteName entries in 1 mount script, but it only uses one, I've tried to create a separate and call mountcheck to mountcheck2 but still the same.

 

How do I do it, so I can have both connected?

 

@Bjur

What do the logs say when you run the second mount script?

Sounds like something was configured wrong and the script thinks you have already mounted that drive

@watchmeexplode5 here is the log:

@DZMM @testdasi

 

Saw the same performance you guys observed with high object count. I ran some r/w tests on a tdrive while filling it up with more objects. No performance loss till ~100K objects. After 100K, there started to begin a gradual performance loss. Initially very small but by 350K+ objects it was significant and numbers varied a lot. Performance bounced around a lot but I saw stuff like 40-70% decrease. Definitely was struggling dealing with the objects. 

 

Isolated everything to make sure mergerfs and rclone weren't causing the issue. Seems like it's googles end where the performance loss is. 

 

So anyway... best practice would be to shoot for <100K objects. Anything higher, it's probably best to seperate/gdrive it if you want to squeeze out every bit of speed. 

@Bjur

Looks like it is mounting fine from the outputs. So is the mount visible available at /mnt/user/mount_rclone/googleSh_crypt ?

post your mount script settings for each remote.

See below and not visible when I tried at clone.

Addon question: I'm about to move from /mnt/user/videos to /mnt/user/mergerfs. The problem is the mount wants to go on disk 3 and my videos are on disk 1&2 so it will take a long time. How do I force mergerfs mount to 1&2 initially and afterwards to 3?

I've tried in share but it's not a normal share and even when I include only disk 1&2 it still resides on disk 3.

@Bjur

Those settings look fine. The logs you posted look like "googleSh_crypt" is mounting and responding fine.

• In your /mnt/user/mount_rclone/ do you find your two remote's folders (googleFi_crypt and googleSh_crypt)?

 

Do you need --rc? 

That's for starting rclone's remote control http server. Maybe it's trying to start both of your instances with rc on the same port.

 

If you don't use --rc then just remove those in both scripts. If you do, you may need to define the port for a second rclone instance ex: "--rc-addr=:5573"

(defualt rc being :5572)

 

---------------------------------------------
About the disk1/2/3 question: 

Doube check with @DZMM, but I'm fairly certain you could force it on a single disk by setting:
LocalFilesShare="/mnt/disk1/local" 

Then you can do disk2 and disk3 by modifying it.

Might add some overhead though for parity writes when moving to local as opposed to keeping local on the cache only.

How safe would manually doing fusermount -uz (on array stop) be if mount_running and upload_running don't exist? (i.e. those 2 scripts aren't running)?

I am having similar issues as you. I cannot stop my array whatsoever because of rclone. I ssh'd into unraid then ran ps -ef | grep /mnt/user only to notice that rclone was still mounted...

 

Has anybody created a safe user script to unmount drives for a safe array stop/unraid reboot?

 

I would prefer not to run ps -ef | grep /mnt/user and then kill {pid} every time i stop the array....any help would be appreciated big time

Remove --RC from one of the mounts - you can only do this once, which is why you can only mount whichever one runs first.

Like you I don't restart that often.  It seems to go through cycles where it stops ok, and others where it hangs.  It seems like we've eliminated upload jobs and stopping the mount - maybe it's mergerfs and we need to stop the docker (and probably the dockers trying to access the mount) first?

I've tried in share but it's not a normal share and even when I include only disk 1&2 it still resides on disk 3.

Nothing gets added to mergerfs - it's a virtual share. If it appears to be on disk 3 that because you've set it to disk 3 in your share settings, but nothing actually gets added there.

 

If what you're asking is for your local files to go on disk 1 or 2, then set /mnt/user/local to disk 1 and 2.

Thanks both.

/mnt/user/mount_rclone/ I find both my mounts in these, but only the connected one googleFi_crypt has a mountcheck in it. The other non working googleSh_crypt does not.

 

--rc removed from both scripts did not make any difference.

 

In regards to the mergerfs on disks, I didn't initially create a mountshare manually, but the script did create it and placed it on disk 3. When I go into share and set the 2 folder to only be on disk 1+2 it still is on disk 3. 

My local normal folders is what I want to upload to the cloud without it having to take long time to move to the folders which should be uploaded. Hope it makes sense.

I’ve tried stopping dockers before shutting down three times and it still hangs. I don’t use VMs so I know that’s not an issue. I guess I’ll just keep shutting down using the current method. If anybody does create an unmounting script that confirms uploads are complete and then proceeds with unmounting, it would be greatly appreciated if you shared with the group

I've written a small user script that reliably stops the array 100%. I'm not quite sure how 'safe' it is though - I haven't noticed any issues since I've been using it though.

Here it is :

 

#!/bin/bash

##########################
### fusermount Script ####
##########################

RcloneRemoteName="google_drive_encrypted_vfs"
RcloneMountShare="/mnt/user/data/remote_storage"
MergerfsMountShare="/mnt/user/data/merged_storage"

while [[ -f "/mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone/remotes/$RcloneRemoteName/mount_running" ]]; do

fusermount -uz "$RcloneMountShare/$RcloneRemoteName"

echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: ***rclone_fusermount script finished ***"

exit

 

Essentially what I'm doing, is checking whether mount is currently running and/or upload is currently running.

 

If either of them are, then the script (and stopping the array) is paused for a few seconds and tries again. Once mount and upload has finished, it will proceed to fusermount -uz (both rclone and mergefs), and then the array stops just fine.

 

I've been using this for the past week with no issues and the array stops always.

Let me know what you think if you get to use it

That wouldn't work for me.  It can literally freeze and not shutdown and I need to do a hard shutdown.  It's the main reason why I don't reboot often - e.g. last month I got a disk error from a hard shutdown, which was painful to fix.

 

Sometimes it's seamless - I actually think there's something in 6.8.x that causes the problem.

I think I got it working now.

What I did was change virtualIP from 2 to 3, change bindingIP to 253 instead of 252, create an extra mergerfs_sh folder and change mountcheck to mountcheck2. The last to edits made it work.

So next step is to get my shares uploaded.

My question is now.

If I want to upload /mnt/user/videos to my Team Share drive.

Should I move it to /mnt/user/local/GCryptFi (name of remote)and upload it to Team Share drive or

Should I move it to /mnt/user/mergerfs/GCryptFi (name of remote) and upload it to Team Share drive

 

What would be the difference with how I upload it afterwards?

 

When doing test it's much more quick to move to local folder, but will it give the same in the end?

Okay, just before I move my precious data and understand.

So the best think for me would be to move all the data to local first and upload it from there.

Afterwards it will be moved completely locally from my drives but seen in mergerfs folder?

Yes.  If you're worried, copy a couple of movies or episodes and watch the activity.

I tried it. I'm not that worried I just want to find the quickest way to get my data in the cloud. If I move it directly to mergerfs it moves it to another drive which takes some time instead of the same drive. I can't get the mergerfs to the same drive. How can I do that? I tried in share settings but it gets overruled.

If either of them are, then the script (and stopping the array) is paused for a few seconds and tries again. Once mount and upload has finished, it will proceed to fusermount -uz (both rclone and mergefs), and then the array stops just fine.

 

I've been using this for the past week with no issues and the array stops always.

Let me know what you think if you get to use it

You are MY HERO!!! I’ve been having to stop my array a lot lately due to config upgrades and it was becoming cumbersome. Thank you so much. You are much appreciated. I’m sure many others will find this helpful as well

But

 

- the checker files are created and removed by a script. Just because they aren't there, doesn't mean rclone isn't running

- sleeping for a combined 20s isn't going to fix hangs
