Unassigned Devices - Managing Disk Drives and Remote Shares Outside of The Unraid Array

If you are seeing unexplained disk or remote share activity, it may be due to cache dirs caching all folders.  For those of you using the Cache Dirs plugin, you need to specify folders to be included so UD mounted disks and shares do not get included automatically.  This can also apply to pool disks.  It's really the best practice to specify the included folders so you control what is actually being cached.

Major new release of UD: "Where are the switches?"  The "Pass Through", "Read Only", "Automount", and "Share" switches have been moved to a new Edit Settings dialog.  This is also where the script is modified.  This saves some real estate on the UD page and keeps the page refresh smooth. A "Show Partitions" switch has been added to set showing all partitions by specific hard drive device and not generically as before.  The option to show all partitions has been removed from the UD

New layout and features

New release of UD.  The changes are: - Add ability to spin down a disk by sdX.  You don't have to spin down disks by name= any more.  This is still available for spinning down a disk from a User Script because you won't know the correct sdX as it changes on reboot. - Add the ability to detach a disk when a UD script is finished using 'rc.unassigned'.  This detaches the disk from Unraid and should provide a potentially safer way to remove a USB device.  Applies to USB disks only. -

There is a new feature in UD to help with plugins that need a mount point folder.  UD now creates a mount folder '/mnt/addons'.  This folder should be used to mount your plugin devices to prevent FCP warnings and keep your mounts separated from UD.  It is recommended you switch to this new folder for your addon and custom mounts.  You are welcome to leave the mounts at '/mnt/disks' or '/mnt/remotes'.  Things will still work, but if you request support for UD issues, you will be asked to remove t

UD is now creating a mount point folder for plugins and addons

It's that self healing feature I built into UD.  It just fixes itself.

New release of UD.  Changes: When changing the mount point (which is also the share name), the mount point is checked for a duplicate of a user share or another UD device.  Samba cannot handle

It is becurse my app data backup is going to that drive. And that is a problem when i restore that it is with root. I will like to do it with nobody 😊

Your backup is in archives, right? If so the user/perms of the backed up files are stored in the archive and the drive perms don't matter.

Unassigned devices is not working correctly for me after upgrading to 6.12.8, device is set for automount and it does mount but is not reflected in the UI:

image.thumb.png.6353810ec73559e85d1b0c5e1d287538.png

If i click MOUNT. the button just goes back to the same state

Additionally the SMB share is not created even if it says so in the syslog: 

Feb 17 11:36:23 Tower unassigned.devices: Mounting partition 'sdg1' at mountpoint '/mnt/disks/ZCH0859H'...
Feb 17 11:36:23 Tower unassigned.devices: Mount cmd: /sbin/mount -t 'xfs' -o rw,relatime '/dev/sdg1' '/mnt/disks/ZCH0859H'
Feb 17 11:36:23 Tower unassigned.devices: Successfully mounted '/dev/sdg1' on '/mnt/disks/ZCH0859H'.
Feb 17 11:36:23 Tower unassigned.devices: Adding SMB share 'ZCH0859H'.
Feb 17 11:36:23 Tower unassigned.devices: Warning: Unassigned Devices are not set to be shared with NFS.

 

UPDATE:

SMB share is created if I execute the script manually: 

/tmp/unassigned.devices/add-smb

@dlandon can confirm the UI is fixed and reflects the disk being mounted, but the SMB share was not created at boot. See the diagnostics attached and the output of cat /proc/mounts , this time I didn't run the add-smb script manually.

Please don't do that.  That is not what that script is for.  It just so happens that that script reloads SMB settings and makes the share appear in this case.  You should never have to use the command line to get UD to work.  Just go to the disk settings and toggle the share switch.  That should enbale SMB for that device.

 

I'm not seeing anything yet, but I'm looking.

Looks like it's not there:

The one there is called unassigned-shares

Thanks.  Looks like I gave you the wrong path.  Now show the output of this command: 

cat /etc/samba/unassigned-shares/ZCH0859H.conf

and

cat /etc/samba/smb-unassigned.conf
