rsync + smb usage issue
Hello! Long time! I have an RN422 on the (recently upgraded from T-180) most recent 6.7.0 firmware. And, ah yes, I am currently resyncing & degraded due to replacing a drive. I backed up my ...
I support storage for a living and am a Linux guy.
The screen grabs are very telling. A recursive list via a SMB share shows no data.
This smells like a bug -- if I had run this test during beta, I'd have reported it.
That being said - I suggest you try it. Speculation is tough when you can't put your hands on it.
Set a share for rsync only.
Rsync some data.
Enable SMB.
Try to see your data via SMB.
You cannot ( at least, I couldn't)
Try via rsync and the data is still there.
I replaced disks this weekend and it won't auto-grow from 2 to 3 TB, so I had to delete my data.
I'll set this back up and do another test -- I can't imagine the results changing.

Welp, after a data removal re-creation - the problem no longer persists.
Perhaps, fallout from beta firmware.
Sorry for the goose chase!
