OS6 Data Recovery - How to Mount BTRFS Volumes
I recently purchased a ReadyNAS 314 and 5 Seagate ST2000VN000 hard disks (one as a cold spare). I work as a system administrator, so I've been reading up on OS6 before I entrust this new system with m...
Shares on the NAS need to be created using the web admin GUI so don't create a folder directly within the data volume using some other method. Once you've copied the files across depending on which method you use it may be necessary to reset the ownership/permissions.
Thanks mdgm for the reply.
I'm at work at the moment, but I'll give that a try when I get home.
Is this applicable to folders within folders as well? For example, if I created a folder on the NAS to share, then copied files in folders to the shared folder - would they be accessible?
Secondly, I had also tested copying from linux using a video file into an existing shared folder. Strangely, even though I could view the rest of the contents in the shared folder which was copied via SMB, the newly copied video file did not appear.
What is the suggested way of local copying from a linux distro? And how would you also reset the permissions from the RN102?
EDIT : I am running 2x 3TB disks as single JBOD volumes. Network access is via both AFP and SMB through Mac/Windows respectively, and the same behaviour occurs on both drives.
Thanks again for your help,
It sounds like the ownership/permissions of that video file must be messed up. If you create a folder within a share you'd need to create it using appropriate ownership/permissions.
How exactly did you copy the file across using SMB? Did you did using the GUI?You may wish to see e.g. How do I restore default file and shared folder access rights on my ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system?
