SOLVED cu_rrd_create_file failed, check_create_dir exists but is not a directory

[jordanthompson]

I just started getting these error messages. The file it is referencing is the fqdn for my truenas host.
It is a symbolic link to /var/db/collectd/rrd/localhost, which is a directory full of files:

/var/db/collectd/rrd/xxx.yyy.com -> /var/db/collectd/rrd/localhost

I did just update the domain (it was blank) for my host under Network->Global Configuration. I tried removing the domain, but I get an error:

Does not match ^[a-zA-Z\.\-\0-9]+$

any suggestions?

/var/db/collectd/rrd/localhost

That's part of your system dataset.

Moving it to another pool and back again may help.

So delete the link, move folder to another pool, move it back and recreate the link?

 

[sretalla]

System | System Dataset

Move it there... And then back after giving it a few minutes to settle

Should I recreate the link? Is it even necessary?

The middleware does that for you.

Seems to have done the trick. Thanks very much
