New user - new build, can't create user shares and docker/VMs won't start (SOLVED)

[Kevin H]

Hi all, I'm a fairly comfortable IT user, not a complete noob, but not a Linux sysadmin, either. I have a brand new UNRAID build which I am admittedly fumbling my way through in the hopes I can replace my current NAS with it. It has no data yet, and I can play/reconfigure as needed. Some reading I've been doing led me to believe UNRAID would create some default shares on my new array for docker/VM use, but it hasn't. Then, when I try to create some new user shares using all disks, they are either immediately deleted, or they only show up in one disk (when I look via webgui - using SMB from a windows machine only shows a "flash" dir that is secured). This is super confusing to me. I've read some topics here and around the net, but none really seem to apply to my case. I've read one that says I must stop the array before creating my user shares, but when I do I can't create shares and when I restart it again I get the same result. Please let me know if I can provide any more info. TIA

Check filesystem on disk2:

Wow! Thank you! I can't believe I missed that, but I wonder if there was any function (in the webgui) to actually tell me there was a problem?

There isn't a warning for filesystem corruption, only by looking at the syslog, though for more severe cases the disk will be unmountable and that can be seen on the GUI.
