SOLVED: Fresh re-install

Postby thomasps » Fri Nov 06, 2015 4:28 pm

My whole network has changed and I believe I need to re-install Amahi. I have a few questions:

0. My router address has changed and also the IP address/subnet: there's really now way but re-install?
1. I'm on a free plan, how can I add a second HDA? I cannot find any button in the control panel!
2. I have greyhole running. Can I re-install Amahi and tell Greyhole where to look for the old files?

Thanks

You can change the router IP address via the Dashboard in the Network tab, Settings area. As for the subnet, that must be done via command line following the Change IP Address guidance.
1. I'm on a free plan, how can I add a second HDA? I cannot find any button in the control panel!
Not sure if that is available on the FREE plan. Email support about it.
2. I have greyhole running. Can I re-install Amahi and tell Greyhole where to look for the old files?
Yes there is guidance in the wiki for reconnecting existing Greyhole storage pool drives.

You can do a reinstall of the OS and Amahi as a last resort.

The router IP address is now 192.168.88.1. The dashboard will only let me change the last triplets.
As for the subnet, that must be done via command line following the Change IP Address guidance.
To clarify, the only command line section is the one for Amahi 6 (Ubuntu 12.04.x). Are those the commands I should be using?

Thanks

Yes that should allow you to change the rest of the IP addresses.
