rename NTFS filesystem label

mcgyver83 · 8. Dezember 2018

Hi, I'm running omv 4 on a raspberry pi2.
I have an usb drive attached (NTFS) an I mounted it.
After some days I saw that the label for the disk partition is "TOSHIBA 1TB", with the space char.
In the log I see some lines like:

Code

Dec  8 15:43:29 raspberrypi systemd[1]: [/etc/systemd/system/sharedfolders-Docker_base.mount:7] Failed to add required mount "1TB", ignoring: Invalid argument

The space is causing issue somewhere.
How can I rename it?
Can I mount the filesystem using UUID instead of label?

How can I rename it?

As it is NTFS: connect it to a windows machine and change it. Before that you have to remove all shared folders in order to be able to unmount it from the GUI.

In general it is not recommended to use NTFS filesystem as storage for a linux NAS (metadata and permission issues). So best option would be to create ext4 filesystem on the drive.

Hi you can try

Code

ntfslabel /dev/sdXX NewLabel
and if needed
ntfsfix /dev/sdXX
