[Help] TOS 7 upgrade and SPC user homes issue

[rvescovi]

Hi,

my configuration is Volume1 (singled SSD for OS) and Volume2 (RAID for data).

On T0S6 I was able to install the OS on SSD and the users on RAID.

After I (finally) upgraded to TOS7 .750 it was necessary to recreate all users configuration which I did it, without loosing any data all users linked correctly to their previous homes on /Volume2/homes. So in Volume2/homes I have ./user1, ./user2, ...

Now I decided as recommended to enable SPC and after boot, my admin users will be linked to /Volume1/home (not homes anymore and neither Volume2) but I loose any document relations stored in the /Volume2/homes/ .

So PHOTO, TERRASYNC, .. not working, and MEDIA indexing still show as private directory /homes/riccardo/Photos, which differs from PHOTO which now includes /home/riccardo/Photos.

Additionally, all other users are not linked anymore to their data and If I create a new for test it will be under /Volume1/home. (not homes).

It seems that SPC disable the "homes" approach. Is it possible that during the SPC enablement, went missing some mount configurations?

Is there a way to restore the previous configuration?

Thanks

Hi, to partially solve the issue I did:

mount --bind /Volume2/homes /home

but I didn't make any permanent changes awaiting your feedback.

Thanks.

Hi @rvescovi,

I'm experiencing the same issue on a fresh TOS 7 installation. Is your volume binding solution working correctly with all the related features, such as Photos, TerraSync, and the other user-specific services?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, it seems working on PHOTO but you need per each user add again its local folder for indexing (at least in my case disappeared) and then it works as in the past.

This is only a workaround due for TERRASYNC server after my BIND I can reach again from the TERRAMASTER UI the documents but I'm having an issue on PC client APP which cannot find the /home/Terrasync directory. (it doesn't show the username in between the /home and /Terrasync)

To investigate more the issue I went also to the TERRAMASTER TOS 7 online demo to understand more on the mount. This demo hasn't the SPC active, and if I launch this command:

mount | grep home

I obtain this result: /dev/mapper/vg0-lv0 on /home type btrfs (rw,noatime,tmacl,space_cache=v2,subvolid=258,subvol=/@/homes)

rather on my NAS after the mount command I obtain this "subvol/@", it seems I need to mount differently, but it's unclear to me how to. I was waiting a newest release.
