Hi All
I have spent a bit of time trying to figure this out myself but haven't really been able to get anywhere and am hoping that someone here can help out! I have a mirrored vdev setup for a single pool with three datasets. I am using NFS for my unix servers and SMB on windows and am running into an issue where the data written over NFS is undetected within SMB and within the TrueNAS datasets. The screenshow below shows that 6.74 TiB has been used but nothing is showing under the datasets:
Perplexingly, empty directories are being shown under the TrueNAS web shell as follows:
But under NFS mounted to a different system I see:
This is one of many folders / files within this directory. I have seen quite a few threads about the incompatibility / potential issues between NFS and SMB which I did not know about before setting it up this way (I've setup both SMB / NFS manually on linux servers previously and not encountered this issue). I have since found and enabled the 'Multi-protocol (NFSv3/SMB) shares' option for my SMB share inside of the TrueNAS options but it seems that it has not changed anything that was previously created under NFS. Though I have been able to create files on nfs / smb and confirm that it appears to work as it should for anything new (that is NOT in the folders as shown in NFS - i.e in the root of /mnt/tank).
That being the case, how do I get my files created previously under NFS to show in TrueNAS / SMB? Is there anything else that I should be aware of? I don't really use the datasets to be honest and I'm not sure they are needed for my use case but I'm worried that if I delete them I will delete my underlying dataset.
Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide
