So here's a weird one. Years ago I did a batch upload of files to the Terastation. Fast forward to now, I've attempted to download some of these files and have discovered some of the nested filenames used a "null" (zero with a slash) instead of an "O" or even a zero ("0"). I couldn't download any of these files, so I resorted to offsite backups to replace them. However, I've also discovered that the files cannot be deleted off the Terastation. Additionally, the file folder has a null in the filename, I can't even add anything! To throw additional salt in the wound...the Terastation is not allowing renaming. If I could rename, I believe I could delete...but no dice.

So, I don't care about deleting the files because I have backups. I DO care about the files being on the server, as they're taking up space and potentially could cause problems later. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do with these files, using Linux/XFS filing system commands or ???

Storage / No Security Tab on Folder Properties
« Last post by stephang on March 15, 2024, 10:02:25 PM »
I've created a fourth shared folder on my Terastataion TS51210R.  For the first three, when I right-click on the folder, I see the Security tab and I can go ahead and set AD permissions.  But this new folder, which I have deleted and re-created, simply does not show a Security tab, so I cannot assign permissions.

If it was setup as a mirror and you don't have any other errors then it should just automatically still detect the other disk whilst it is in the Drivestation enclosure.

Storage / DriveStation Duo Failed Mirror Drive 1 -Procedure to use drive 2

Have a failed drive 1 in mirror raid and the disk is no longer recognized by Windows OS.  Is there a specific process to get drive 2 recognized for use until drive 1 is replaced?

Well nevermind. The folder had a bunch of firmware stuff in it. However I created a new share named fwup and then deleted it and it removed the firmware share. Its now gone and I dont have an open share anymore

Storage / Strange FWUP share on TS3410R

After a firmware update an open share appeared on our TS3410R and it isnt listed under file shares. I cant get rid of it and it appears on our audits as an open share. How can I remove it?

Yeah, it takes a while. According to the projected time to finish, I have nearly a week during RAID re-sync before the unit is usable. It's a good thing I don't need it urgently!

Well that sucks, I don't know if I did something wrong or if maybe it would have self corrected after "rebuilding" the array.  Luckily all I had on it was around 500g that I moved to test out streaming to my Zidoo player over SMB. I wiped the aray and re-did it from scratch with all 4 drives. It seems that now the capacity per drive is a little less so the 4th (different brand) may not have had the exact amount of calculated space as the others after formatting so that could have been fouling things up. Anyway the RAID5 was rebuilt and now it is synching (which takes a looooong time) so all should be well.

Well, I appreciate your contribution, but I'll keep checking as I prefer a detailed answer with supporting information.
