I am not. My media and another folder that I wan to share with SMB are not even showing up under storage. Sorry I am new to Scale.Well, are you trying to share the apps dataset? Because that's clearly not going to work. Share a different dataset that does not have apps as a child.
That isn't really a surprise (leaving aside the question of why you'd want to), as the iocage dataset isn't anything special under SCALE. You are running SCALE, right? Because you posted in the SCALE forum.I can actually start SMB on iocage folder.
It was under storage.Well, where is your media "folder"? Is it on the same pool as your apps? Is it somewhere under the ix-applications dataset? You aren't giving us very much to go on.
Not is not what I am trying to do. Ignore the iocage. Where did my media folder go? The space used up on my NAS is correct so I know it didn't get deleted.You can only share datasets, not folders. Furthermore, it's not recommended to share anything underneath the iocage dataset on Core. On Scale, it probably doesn't matter, but isn't recommended if you ever move your pool back to Core.
Nonsense. The GUI only shows datasets, but there's nothing stopping you from entering the path to a directory that isn't a dataset.You can only share datasets, not folders.
The structure is /MNT/Storage/(Media)(ix-application)(other). How would I go about converting the media folder?OK, I think this is because your media folder exists at the root of your pool, where the ix-applications dataset also resides, so the root dataset contains the app dataset. The probable fix is to convert your media folder to a dataset, and use that for SMB sharing.
mv /mnt/Storage/media /mnt/Storage/foo
.rsync
mc
- You'll probably find this easiestcp
But are there not some issues of sharing non-app data with Apps like Plex?OK, I think this is because your media folder exists at the root of your pool, where the ix-applications dataset also resides, so the root dataset contains the app dataset. The probable fix is to convert your media folder to a dataset, and use that for SMB sharing.
