i tried to look at my server but Plex wasnt available, i logged in TOS and open the plex icon it shows "Configuring" so i left it for a while but nothing happens, i SSH in and find this command running and taking the most CPU in top

/usr/bin/coreutils --coreutils-prog-shebang=chown /bin/chown -R plex:plex /mnt/md0/User/plex /home/plex
i killed the process and now plex shows its online but plex still is not running.

i forced restarted it via root user and its back up now but still no idea why it was running a chown and not allowing access
