Network Drives

Postby treybayne » Sat Nov 15, 2014 10:22 pm

Guys,
I'm working hard to try to wrap my head around how Greyhole really works and can't get anything to work.
I have two 2TB network drives. I want them to be counted as a 4 TB drive. I want to have a share for Movies that stores duplicates. I want to have a share for TV shows that stores 1 time.

I have /etc/fstab set up and the network drives are mounting.

Code: Select all

/192.168.1.xx/ProtectedShare /var/hda/files/drives/drive1 cifs credentials=root/.smbXXX,icharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0 [code]/192.168.1.xx/media /var/hda/files/drives/drive2 cifs credentials=root/.smbXXX,icharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[/code]

If I navigate to /var/hda/files/drives/drive1 or /var/hda/files/drives/drive2 I see my files as expected.

I then went to my shares in Amahi UI and changed the Movies share to /var/hda/files/drives/drive1. I could then access my Movies share from /hda/movies just as I expected.

My next step was to do the 1 click install of Greyhole. After the Greyhole install I restarted. I then navigate to my Amahi Dashboard-->drive pooling. I do not see my network drives in my partition section under Greyhole. I do not see anything under Shares under Greyhole.

I'm sure I'm missing something big and obvious but I don't understand what. Any suggestions?

This is how I have my network shares mounted:
//192.168.x.x/Tv /media/samba/Tv cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,rw,_netdev,uid=1000,gid=1001,iocharset=utf8,mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0
I have these as part of the Greyhole Storage Pool, but they are native to the HDA. I am using this mount on a non Amahi machine for SABnzbd, Sickbeard, and CouchPotato. So far everything is working perfectly.
