How to rename a share?

Postby cpeddie » Wed Feb 07, 2018 7:52 pm

I would like to rename a share, but there doesn't seem to be any method of doing that via the web based UI. Since greyhole is such a fickle beast, I'm wary of just renaming the directories on the landing zone and then deleting the old shares and creating new ones that use the rename directory on the landing zone.

Is there a proper (and safe) way to rename shares?

Thanks,
Craig

I would recommend you create a new share via the dashboard. Then move the files from the old share to the new one.

Providing you have mount_shares_locally running, it should work just fine with Greyhole.
