satmeiler Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) I have been stumped with my main share showing some or all files unprotected. I have browsed all the forum posts I could find and have not found a solution for my situation. All shares show this error. I have a parity drive and single cache drive. All shares except my main data share are set to cache only so I would expect this error. The main share I created is has cache set to no. When I compute the share it shows 0 bytes on the cache drive. The cache drive does have a folder (Network HDD) for my main share however it is empty. I intend to replace a drive soon and need to be sure that the parity is correct. I am aware that unRaid parity is not faultless and isn't a replacement for a backup however at this time I cannot afford to separately back up all files. I ran a parity check yesterday which completed with 0 errors. I have attached the diag zip here. Thank you. fileserver-diagnostics-20190723-2059.zip Edited July 23, 2019 by satmeiler Quote Link to comment

satmeiler Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 My mistake I meant to say 0 bytes on the cache drive, I will take the screenshot now. Quote Link to comment
satmeiler Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Network HDD is the share in question, all other shares are set to cache only. I didn't want a cache drive as much as a separate storage location. I wasn't expecting such a quick reply, thanks! Edited July 23, 2019 by satmeiler Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 If the only folder that share has on cache is empty, then just delete that folder. Quote Link to comment

You just need to be sure you have another copy of any important and irreplaceable files. You get to decide which files are important and irreplaceable. Quote Link to comment
satmeiler Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Okay thanks I'll give that a shot. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do I access the cache drive to delete that folder. I am able to access the share but obviously if I delete it there, it will delete everywhere. I would think a disk share? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Just set the share to be use cache: yes, then run mover. The folder on the cache drive will go away. Then set it back to be use cache no, and the issue will never happen again. Quote Link to comment
satmeiler Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Perfect, that has fixed it. Thanks to the both of you for your help! Quote Link to comment
