I spent countless amount of hours trying to figure out why my RAID1 partition disappears after the boot. To make sure the drives load correctly on boot we have to delay the root. Log in to your Plex account, and the libraries selecting the correct paths and after few moments you should see the Plex and your media available for streaming. Make sure you have some files on your drive (transfer it using SMB protocol) as it will be easier for you to verify that you have your Plex server running successfully on Raspberry Pi NAS. This is where you can configure your Plex server and access the Plex interface. It will take few moments, after which you will get the Plex option in running services. Once this is done, download Plex plugin from the menu and installation will start. RAID1 – Mirror filesįirst, go to OMV- extras and enable Plex. This way you can allow users, groups etc to write/read content from the shares. Once you have the shares available, modify the user permissions using the ACL option in users/share. It’s important that you select permission inheritance for any folders that contain media files for Plex or DLNA, otherwise, Plex server won’t see new file structures. We will do this once the RAID partition has been created.Įnable SMB in services, click through to shares option and create shares. If you want to create a RAID partition, don’t create any file systems on the drives used for that. Once this is done, you have to create the file systems. You will need these credentials later to access the network storage. The fstab file will get populated this way and will save you some issues later.Ĭreate a user account, set a username and password. Also, scan for drives even if the drives are present. This way you are 100% sure drives can be accessed by the Raspberry Pi NAS. I strongly suggest to quick-wipe the drives before you do anything else.
