Services
2 minute read.
System > Services displays each system component that runs continuously in the background. These typically control data-sharing or other external access to the system. Individual services have configuration screens, activation buttons, and you can set them to run automatically.
The Configure icon opens the service configuration screen.
The NFS service row has one additional View Sessions link that opens the NFS Sessions screen.
The SMB service row has two additional links:
- View Logs opens the Audit screen.
- View Sessions opens the SMB Status screen.
The Start Automatically toggle sets the service to start after the system restarts.
The Status column displays the service status with a badge (Stopped or Running) and a start or stop button. The start button starts the service and the stop button stops it if it is running. It is recommended to stop services before changing configuration settings.
