Hi everyone,

I finally upgraded to 11.3-U2.
I created a new dataset in the shell under a dataset folder. My problem is it doesn't show up under the web gui, but is visible in shell and winscp. I have tried mirroring the privileges to a dataset created from the gui that shows up just fine in the gui to no avail.

I have tried searching the forums as well as search engines, but no luck.

Thanks in advance and any advice is greatly appreciated.

Best,

jmnick

You may have created directories rather than a dataset. What command did you use?

Thanks Basil Hedroff,

I think that is what I did now that you ask it that way.

I used mkdir. Is there any way to convert them now that I have made them. I have a couple of terabytes that I don't really want to move if I can help it.

I'd rename the directory using mv, create the dataset in the UI and then copy the data into it.
