Hi,

I use Openmediavault with docker.
So I was able to install UMS.

I created a datapool with SnapRaid and mergeFS.
The folder root is /srv/mergerfs/datapool/media

How can I add this folder to UMS shares?

It should just be the same as any other shared folder, but I know next to nothing about Linux so don't know if there is anything specific you need to do.
@boss knows a lot more about Linux than me so he could confirm this.

There is also this guide for installing Docker so it might be covered in there.

The syntax for shares on a Linux machine is like this:

Code: Select all

[
  {
    "file": "/mnt/media/Images",
    "monitored": false,
    "metadata": true,
    "active": true,
    "type": "Folder"
  },
  {
    "file": "/mnt/media/Music",
    "monitored": false,
    "metadata": true,
    "active": true,
    "type": "Folder"
  },
  {
    "file": "/mnt/media/Music Videos",
    "monitored": false,
    "metadata": true,
    "active": true,
    "type": "Folder"
  },
  {
    "file": "/mnt/media/Videos/Movies",
    "monitored": false,
    "metadata": true,
    "active": true,
    "type": "Folder"
  },
  {
    "file": "/mnt/media/Videos/TV Series",
    "monitored": false,
    "metadata": true,
    "active": true,
    "type": "Folder"
  }
]

Sorry, I'm a noob.
Where should I edit?

I found ums.conf in /data/appdata/ums/UMS.conf, but if I open it with nano it says ums.conf is a directory.

Or have I edit here:

You can set up shared content in the web interface. Just enter the location of the folder you want to share.

You can also set this up by editing the SHARED.conf file in a text editor as @boss shows.

I don't know if there are any more steps to set up a share with Docker but that guide should have everything you need.
UMS.conf is the program settings so you don't need to edit this. I think you actually defined that file as a folder in Docker if I am understanding the screenshot but this may be correct. I think it is there to allow you to edit it outside the container.
I think you also need to change the "CHANGE_TO_COMPOSE_DATA_PATH" to the actual path unless this is some keyword.
The 2 media entries can be what you want so just change it to "/srv/mergerfs/datapool/media/:/media:ro" and I think this will be able to be shared with the folder as "/data/media" in shared content.
This is all guesswork as I know even less about Docker than Linux, but hopefully should point you in the right direction.

Now it works. Thanks a lot.

But there is still a problem. Shutdown doesn't work anymore.
Enabled as in this threat: viewtopic.php?t=13554 it worked flawless without docker.
But with docker the shutdown has no function. This is the most important function I need.

The docker log file:

This is probably some permissions issue in Linux as from what I understand Docker is an isolated environment so would not be able to execute commands affecting the main system.
