Hello,
I was messing around with jails and trying to make my plex access files and be able to read them. I never got it to work but that isn't the big issue right now.
When messing around with the files inside the jail i was under the assumption i was only messing with the pointer itself and not the actual files. so i deleted what i thought was a pointer but somehow i affected the real files and now i can not view them under my share. 1.2TiB of Data is now missing.
I do not know if i have a backup or snapshots available but what is giving me hope is that it shows that the file is full of the data but I cannot see it.
I will try to attach photos below.
Here is a photo of what is visible in my share
Here is what FreeNAS is showing.
as you can see. the "Movies" file is there and you can see that it shows it as being full of data.
Here is my share settings.
how do i recover my files?
