Re: Cannot transfer larger files to shares

Okay, this is what I'm thinking is the UI: https://www.screencast.com/t/ejqT4O4geUS I double-checked about the greyhole.conf since it has dire warnings at the top about manually editing. I feel pretty comfortable in a terminal but things like that do give me pause about mucking around in configurati...

Re: Cannot transfer larger files to shares

As I noted, the drive I removed does NOT show up in the Greyhole UI on my dashboard. Can I simply manually delete that line from the greyhole.conf file, then restart Greyhole? I'm increasingly suspecting this problem is on the Windows computer side, but would like to clean up that drive listing anyh...

Re: Cannot transfer larger files to shares

Also check /etc/greyhole.conf to see if the drive is listed there. It is still listed in the greyhole.conf file - is there a way to get it removed from that file? Are you using the greyhole-ui App? I am using the UI app - when I look at the shares list on my dashboard, the removed drive is NOT list...

Re: Cannot transfer larger files to shares

Sorry for my delay in reply - life intervened :/ Anyways, thought I may have solved this with a Windows update, but whatever fixed was only temporary and I'm now back to the problem. I'm thinking it's NOT a network cable issue as the two desktops have no problems with anything else (surfing the inte...

SOLVED: Cannot transfer larger files to shares

I'm having an issue with file transfers from Windows computers to our HDA. We can see and navigate the shares just fine, and open files from them with no issue. I can copy some smaller files to the HDA - for example, text files, small Word documents, and Excel spreadsheets. If I try to copy a large ...

Re: Pool Drive Failing - What are my next steps?

Okay this morning I feel a bit stupid but very relieved. I created the Ubuntu LiveUSB, and restarted to boot into that. Apparently my BIOS had gotten changed back from booting from USB first, so it went into emergency mode. I decided to scour the log file to try and find which disk was failing and n...

Re: Pool Drive Failing - What are my next steps?

Thanks bigfoot - I'm not frustrated with amahi or greyhole really, just frustrated mostly that the drive decided to fail today, right after I finished work and moved files to the HDA, before those files had a chance to backup to the cloud, etc... just bad timing, but then, when is a HDD failure ever...

Re: Pool Drive Failing - What are my next steps?

It will only boot in emergency mode, so I can't access the HDA interface. I know that it has minimal services running in this mode, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to tell greyhole to remove the bad drive :( It's still copying files to the external HDD right now but it's on the last share so I can t...

SOLVED: Pool Drive Failing - What are my next steps?

One of the HDD in my 2-drive pool is failing and my HDA will not boot properly after the SMART drive failure warning is displayed upon boot. It will boot into emergency mode. Only one my shares (business files) is mirrored on both disk drives. I have currently mounted an external HDD and am attempti...

Re: Locally mounted shares show as empty
