Handtuch-Existenz geprüft. Check.

OpenMediaVault. FTP-Zugriff per gewünschtem User. Äh... offenbar kein Handtuch involviert und deutlich trickreicher. Login möglich, sieht aber den Folder nicht. Permissions schon diverse Male geprüft. Sehe ich nur ein Handtuch vor Augen?

I've managed to get #OpenMediaVault working on my #RaspberryPi (running #Raspbian Lite) and the performance seems pretty impressive! Despite relying on USB storage for the SSDs.

This is my first time running a #NAS on the Pi, on #OMV, not using #ZFS or #RAID but rather an #Unraid like solution, 'cept, #FOSS called #SnapRAID in combination with #mergerfs (the drives themselves are simply #EXT4).

So far, honestly, so good. I got 2x 1TB SSDs for data, and another 1TB SSD for parity. Don't have a backup for the data themselves atm, but I do have a scheduled backup solution (#RaspiBackup) setup for the OS itself (SD card). It's also got #Timeshift for creating daily snapshots.

I'm not out of the woods yet though, cos after this comes the (somewhat) scary part - deploying #Immich on the Pi lol (using OMV's #Docker compose interface perhaps). I really could just deploy it in my #Proxmox #homelab, and I wouldn't have to worry about system resources or hardware transcoding, etc. but I really wanna experiment this 'everything hosted/contained in 1 Pi' concept.

Still in my painful journey of building my #RaspberryPi 4 #NAS with #OpenMediaVault lol, on today's episode:

My setup is comprised of:

- Pi 4 (4GB)
- SD card for boot storage
- USB Drive for backup (USB 3)
- USB 3 cable -> External powered USB 3 hub -> 3 SATA SSDs via SATA-USB3 cables (USB 3)
- Other USB 2 ports are not occupied

When I boot it up (on #Raspbian Lite, #OMV installed), if I do a lsblk, all drives show up incl. USB stick and all 3 SATA SSDs. But when I hop on to OMV > Storage > Disks, it takes a long time to scan/list down all attached storage, and it might do in the end... BUT it will end with all my USB stick AND 3 SATA SSDs crashing/disappearing from my Pi (i.e. no longer show up in lsblk).

What could be the cause, and could it be 'fixed'? Trying to figure out the limitation of the Pi 4 here.. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the USB-SATA cable, the USB hub, the power supply I bought (separately) for the USB hub, or wtv else?

Just realised #OpenMediaVault (#OMV) only supports #Debian, not #Ubuntu. My #RaspberryPi has #Ubuntu 20.04 LTS installed atm (and currently running as a QDevice for my #Proxmox cluster), so I'll prolly have to scratch that and install... #Raspbian (Lite), which should be Debian 12?
