after another hardware failure I bought 2 SSDs to run in Mirror Mode so I wont have to do this all the time again.
I'm back on square one. or something similar atleast...
let me start from scratch (what I did anyways).
I went ahead created the pool made it my standard for jails. installed the plexpass plugin and saw to it that everything was running.
Then I went into the jail via "jexec <jailid>" and found the uid gid and groups to all have the number 972. So to be thorough I deleted the old user and group and just remade them accordingly.
Then I stopped plex went to jails and added a mountpoint.
iocage fstab -l plex now returns
"14 /mnt/Balerion/Balerion/Media /mnt/Balerion/iocage/jails/plex/media nullfs rw 0 0"
so far so good. I expected this to run as it used to. but in plex itself I weirdly only see the contents of the TEMP folder (its just a temporary folder for encodings, downloads and what not) in Media not the contents of either Audio or Video which are the only wants I actually want.
any quick idea what I've done wrong?
edit: I just saw that both Audio and Video are Datasets and TEMP is just a fold I created on a Client. I just created a new folder named test, copied some movies into it and they get picked up like a charm. Any quick fix to it?
In the end I'll probably still migrate to these folders anyway but I'd like to know why it didn't work so I can prevent stuff like this in the Future.
