Hello fellow FreeNAS users,
This is my first post here, I've been lurking for a while building my own FreeNAS.
Today I was working with NFS sharing to put some files on from Linux and use it for persistent storage for containers.
So I had files in there (next to it a back-up because the management tends to remove the persistent storage with a wrong button press) and put everything in place where I wanted them.
Next thing I tried to start up some containers and they got an error not being able to write/mount the NFS path, so a permission error.
This has been very finicky so I figured I had a bad permission setting on the NFS share.
I read the documentation and apparently I should've set the nobody user in the mapall group and user setting, so I changed this (instead off root user as mapall user).
Next thing I know, all my container files in there are 0KB!! Obviously it's some permission thing but I can't for the life get the files back to showing what they actually are. They all show up as empty now and I really really need them back. Unfortunately the back-up files were also in the NFS path so they are 0KB too, basically everything on the NFS is 0KB now.
Anyone got any suggestions how to turn them back to usable files?
I tried putting permissions back on mapall user root but no cigar.
