Re: Problem with 0.9.7 hda-greyhole

hi,

this method of fixing missing symlnks no longer works.

For one the hda-greyhole archive seems no longer available.

the wiki update instructions also seem out of date?

How may I fix the symlinks and update greyhole?

Re: How to re-purpose drives

Update: so far so good. The drives to be used as RAID 1 are: /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd A bit of reading on the interweb got me as far as: mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=mirror --raid-devices=2 /dev/sdc /dev/sdd I recreated a new RAID 1 array at /dev/md 1 as /dev/md0 is the system RAID then waited for ...

Re: How to re-purpose drives

Sure you may, np. Although I will continue to use greyhole for my home server, the office server has shown to be too unreliable in a work environment. It is my intention to move /var/hda/files/ to a 2TB Raid 1 array and keep one 2 TB drive as a back-up drive. By the time the office uses 2TB of stora...

Re: How to re-purpose drives

I now have 3 unmounted and unpartitioned 2 TB HDDs.

I was hoping to use the Disk Utility application to create a new RAID 1 array however when I try to commit the changes, I receive a 'Permission Denied" / "Not Authorized" message.

I'm much appreciate some help with this.

thanks

How to re-purpose drives

Hello again, I've got 3 x 2TB HDDs in my greyhole storage pool. After moving all shares to a non-greyhole drive, I'm hopping to transform these 3 drives into a RAID1 plus 1 SPARE drive array and to use this new RAID1 drive as the location for the shares. I'd appreciate it it someone would walk me th...

Shares Routinely inexplicably Empty

I've got a nagging greyhole problem in so far as that entire shares and files disappear from the storage pool shares. I find shares completely empty once in a while and the way I have recovered the share so far is to find what I need in ..files/driveX/gh/sharename/ . I've recovered missing shares/fi...
