openmediavault-snapraid now supports split parity and multiple arrays

Hello, I have updated my system via the normal updates method in the WebGui. This installed openmediavault-snapraid 6.2. Now, no snapraid commands work via the web gui. For example, snapraid status does not output the status text anymore. Via the command line, snapraid still works normally. Here is a picture of my drive settings.

What can I do to fix this? How did I manage to accidentally install version 6.2 from the test repo?

Thanks for the hint, it was indeed the omv-extras Testing repo active. Snapraid status leads to the following output:

Wasn't the output here in the past nearly the same as when the command was run from the command line?

Yes, I've runned the commands you asked for. Pleas see the attached results.

Is it possible to switch back to the last released snapraid plugin version, or should I wait until it is fixed.

Thank you very much. Now it works. Thanks for the fast support.

Hi,

Can someone help setup the split parity up. i have the below. the first 4 drives are 8tb, the last 2 are 4tb. have i set it up correctly.

Yeah i did read it but did not mention how to setup inside OMV plugin. I think it is right by the looks of the GUI below and the snapraid.conf,

snapraid.conf located at etc/snapraid

Just wanted clarification if this is correct for split parity.

Also when i try to run snapraid sync under cli, it is looking for the snapraid.conf at etc. but the config location for this updated plugin now resides under etc/snapraid location. I had to make a copy under etc fore the cli commands to work. Under the GUI the plugin works fine as it reads the config file correctly.

thanks

With the new plugin supporting multiple arrays, any snapraid command from the CLI will have to specify the array with the --conf flag and the file is in /etc/snapraid/

snapraid --conf /etc/snapraid/omv-snapraid-40e7a036-26a5-4cb0-bbc2-66d257e15dbb.conf sync

I think you have mentioned this before, but it won't hurt to repeat it. The above new required command line structure will break many third party SnapRAID scripts in use, many of which are no longer maintained.
