Help with auto mounting raid and Amahi share service
Posted: Sat Jan 02, 2010 6:17 pm
Ok, let me try and explain. New install of F12 on a 80GB drive and two 500GB drives setup as Raid 1 using the software utility in Fedora (not LVM)
I am another one of those Windows guys who knows very little about nix.
I created all my shares under the Amahi dashboard which then auto created all the folders on my raid array, I called it "500GB". I edited the conf file for ushare to point to the new shares. Everything worked great until I rebooted.
I have to start the array and mount "500GB" manually after I log in to the server, no biggie but....
The share service Amahi uses starts at boot and auto creates all the shares so when I start the array it mounts as "500GB_". I have all the correct shared folders under "500GB" but all my data is under "500GB_" make sense?
Is there a way to set my array to start and mount at boot before the Amahi service starts and auto creates the shares? or maybe set the Amahi service to not start at boot? I could then start the raid then start Amahi manually?
And by Amahi service I mean Samba or whatever else is providing that service and creating shares on the fly.
If you Linux guys know a better way to do this I would love to hear, I do however want to make this work on my existing hardware, I know a new board with on-board raid would be better.
Thanks!!
