How to remove missing file system/device?

  • I have removed my hard drive and now new one was installed. I would like to remove missing folders as shown below picture. When I tried to delete them nothing was happened.


    is there another way to remove these missing folders?

  • Remove the mntent entry from /etc/openmediavault/config.xml

    @votdev I have seen the need to remove a missing file system several times in the past here in the forum. Sometimes people replace a drive by a new drive and format the old drive in order to use it otherwise but forget to remove it first from OMV. Is it really the right way to have to make modifications to the OMV´s config database to solve such an issue? I think a normal user should not have to do this.

    He changed the code so that Delete should work but it doesn't always. Especially when people disconnect a disk without removing everything attached to the filesystem. In that case, it is necessary to do the config edit.

    Yes, I agree. That is the current situation. Nevertheless I think there is room for improvement.

    I would not be fun to write the code to search the database for every thing related to that filesystem. It would be different if it was a relational database instead of xml. I doubt Volker is going to spend time on this.

  • I doubt Volker is going to spend time on this.

    Probably. Even so this is a quite common problem which many users have from time to time.


    I´m sorry for insisting here. I find it unreasonable for a user to have to change the database. Sometimes with limited success, as you can see from the current example.


    So introduce e.g. a 'fake" drive only to be able to do the necessary house keeping :) later.

  • I removed some backup folders using rm -r <folder directory> on one of my external drives which did the trick but the size of the backup drive did not reduce accordingly. I thought it might have been locked somehow so reboote my system but still the size has not reduced - did I do something wrong?

  • @tannaroo Sorry, but how is your post related to this thread?

    not mounted, as I have deleted the folder it was mounted in in \srv

    That's why it will not umount and therefore not delete from omv's database, you'll have to delete the reference in /etc/openmediavault/config.xml and locate the reference under mntent and remove it, back up the file first

  • It is not why, it is why I deleted it. There is no unmount feature in OMV web GUI.

    Only because you say it, ;)




    If the filesystems ISN'T mounted, then OMV can't umount nothing.

    Don't mistake the OMV errors with the errors USERS make.
